Can this flagship soundbar/subwoofer combi really be a suitable alternative to a full 5.1 rig? If square speaker drivers existed then Sony would have certainly used them for the HT-ST7, a soundbar that’s got more hard edges than Jason Statham and more angles than a protractor factory. Even the remote control is a perfect oblong with triangular shaped buttons. And with substantial dimensions and considerable heft to both bar and subwoofer (not pictured) there is nothing subtle about the HT-ST7’s look.Read more
This slick option just may change the way you look at (and listen to) soundbars.Read more
