B&W Panorama
$2,200.00
Released February, 2010
The Pros:Solid build quality - better than the majority of sound bars. Great sound quality - impressive clarity and bass response for a sound bar. Clean and simple aesthetic for those interested in having a minimalist setup.
The Cons:High price. Can't beat a receiver based true surround sound system - especially for the price. No HDMI inputs.
The B&W Panorama is the first soundbar developed by B&W and manages to handle a full 5.1 channels and 175 watts of Class D amplification. It makes use of digital signal processing to create a fake surround effect.
