Any chance of a soundtest of the various soundbars on offer?
Speaker placement means that my only other realistic option to a soundbar is the Q acoustics Q AV with some discreet cabling. Given that the speakers alone will be £600 and a decent AV amp will be £400+ then my budget is overspent to go that route especially when you throw in the cost speakers cables too.
I know you rated the Yamaha 40d highly and at £700 it looks to be a good option. I am also wondering about the marantz sounbars and any others I am unaware of. Also, I have just ordered the 37px80b - would the YSP 30d be a better fit (or does it suffer for its lack of sub speakers?) Guidance on soundbars for smaller viewing/listening spaces would also be appeciated i.e a best for small spaces etc.
Don't wory about answering the specifics here but if a comprehensive run down of soundbars could come sometime in 2009 then it would make me a happy man.
Thanks for reading and keep up the good work.
