(Also See “Value” Category)

Atlantic Technology 3.1 HSB Soundbase
(February/March 2016) This hybrid soundbase features a passive left/center/right main section that gets driven by a separate AVR and a powered bass section that features AT’s H-PAS construction to deliver low frequencies that belie the cabinet dimensions. We measured –3 dB at 35 Hz. Wow. $799, atlantictechnology.com

PSB Alpha VS21 VisionSound Soundbase System
(January 2016) This powered soundbase ($599) is limited by size to smaller TVs, but reviewer Mark Fleischmann found it sounds more like real speakers than a soundbar with music and movies. We reviewed it with the slim-profile SubSeries 150, a $499 add-on. $1,098, psbspeakers.com

Definitive Technology W Studio Microbar Soundbar System (February/March 2016 issue, watch for our review.)
(February/March 2016) The W Micro’s incredibly low-profile baffle delivers a surprisingly large image, and its unvarnished Music mode pays respect to the audiophile sensibility. $899, definitivetech.com

Phase Technology Teatro TSB3.0 Soundbar
(June) This passive three-channel soundbar requires an AVR to drive it, and you’ll surely want a powered sub for bass reinforcement, but it’s one of the few bars we’ve heard that truly delivers the sound quality of three high-quality separate speakers. $738, phasetechnology.com

No OLED? From what I've read in the past QD is supposed to be a cheap but inferior technology, nice to find out that it's performing better than advertised (such a rarity).

Your main concern is presumably if the price quote is competitive now that you have the car's io games quote.

As a big fan of slots, I was delighted with the selection offered by Barz Casino Casino UK. There are both classic slots and new releases with different themes and bonus features. Each game is unique, with beautiful graphics and the opportunity to win significant amounts. I always enjoy every game session. I am especially pleased that the developers are constantly adding new slots, so it never gets boring. If you also like slots, you will definitely find something to your liking here.
