Even before a March 2022 update, the popular Nakamichi Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 wireless surround sound system (which is still available) would have made this roundup list for its immersive, realistic sound, clarity of audio, and massive bass rumble from its twin 10-inch powered subwoofers. Customers and critics alike have showered it with adoration since 2017.
Upgraded hardware includes redesigned extended-range twin-cone drivers in the soundbar, new high-output amplifiers and upgraded drivers in the subwoofers, and 2nd-generation two-way Quad Modular Surround Speakers with new silk dome tweeters and extended-range twin-cone drivers. A new matte-black finish and 2nd-gen backlit remote round out the updates, which Nakamichi based on customer surveys, beta tests, and customer review feedback. The $1,899 MSRP Shockwafe Ultra 9.2 eARC SSE Max requires a lot of space, power outlets, and experimentation to find the right setup for the four surround speakers, but it rewards your effort with a powerful and life-like cocoon of sound. (And an even more intense, more expensive ultra-flagship we hope to try out, the quad-sub Dragon, was announced at CES 2023.)
While only a 5.1 system, the CineHome PRO puts out beautiful audio with attention to detail. Each audio channel gets its own speaker unit that can sit horizontally or vertically to save surface area. With 3-way center and front left/right units, and 2-way rear left/right units, the system balances the entire frequency range extraordinarily well. It also gets very loud, but the audio stays clean regardless of the volume level. A helpful control app puts different sound modes at your fingertips, including the excellent Whole Room Stereo mode, which makes the CineHome PRO an impeccable system for music listening on top of its immersive surround sound performance for home theater.
Why it made the cut: Besides being very well built and good at basically everything, the Sony HT-A7000 has two HDMI 2.1 inputs and an HDMI 2.1 eARC output for ready compatibility with the best 4K TVs and even 8K sets.
Many people may assume that any wireless surround sound system they purchase will work great out of the box with any TV, game console, or other devices they have. But, unfortunately, to get everything possible out of your other electronics, you may need to make sure that your home theater sound system has the highest level of HDMI connection, which the Sony HT-A7000 has. Its two HDMI 2.1 passthrough inputs and HDMI 2.1 eARC output support 8K video at 60Hz, 4K at 120Hz, and Dolby Vision HDR, which makes it perfectly suited for the highest-resolution video and audio.
The Denon Home system uses the HEOS app to link all the speakers together, update firmware, and control what audio or music is playing from which room, if you have speakers in multiple rooms. HEOS also consolidates all the compatible music services and sources available into one place, such as Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, SoundCloud, Amazon Music, music stored on your phone, and more. In our firsthand testing of the Denon Home Wireless 5.1 Home Theater System, setup caused some frustration with failed firmware updates and the app not pairing at first with the wireless speakers and subwoofer to the soundbar. Unlike many other wireless systems where the soundbar recognizes and pairs with the sub and surround speakers automatically, you have to connect each Denon Home speaker individually to your home network via HEOS and then pair the speakers to the soundbar. After several attempts to do so with HEOS showing that pairing failed, the subwoofer and wireless speakers eventually just started working with the soundbar. After that, the system worked together, but the 150 Wireless Speakers did experience a connection problem where the audio crackled or flickered on and off. However, cycling the power solved that.
For music, the full system can become a single stereo powerhouse with all the speakers working together as a stereo system. Pairing various Bluetooth devices was easy and smooth, with no dropouts in our testing. For audio fidelity, however, streaming over AirPlay 2 sounds markedly better (Denon does not list a Bluetooth codec for the system, which could be baseline SBC). When comparing the same audio sources played over Bluetooth and then AirPlay 2, the AirPlay signal sounded much more full and vibrant overall, with deeper, rounder bass.
A wireless multiroom speaker system offers the easiest way to listen to music, podcasts, and other audio entertainment in more than one room at a time, and Sonos is the best option for most people. It supports the widest variety of streaming services, features a diverse array of great-sounding speakers, and is easier to set up and use than most multiroom systems.
Considering that the experience of interacting with a multiroom music system is almost as crucial as the sound quality, much of my testing involved simply living with the systems, using them on a daily basis as I moved around the house and adding and removing zones when I could.
The Sonos system supports the most services and has a wide selection of excellent-sounding speakers, comprehensive search features, and a well-organized app that runs on almost all major mobile platforms. The platform benefits from hardware and software upgrades quite regularly.
The Sonos speaker lineup is extensive. Sonos offers tabletop speakers that start at the low end with the small Sonos One ($220) and Sonos One SL (the same speaker without voice control; $200) and go up to the large Sonos Five ($550). The company recently introduced the Era 100 ($250), as well as the Atmos-enabled Era 300 ($450). The lineup also includes three soundbars, the Arc, Beam, and Ray.
Although each speaker can work on its own, you can also combine two into a stereo pair or even build a 5.1-channel home theater system using a soundbar along with two other speakers for surrounds and a matching subwoofer, namely either the Sub or the Sub Mini.
The tabletop speakers deliver excellent sound quality. The new Era 100 benefits from better bass than the older Sonos One, and it adds a second tweeter in an angled array, which gives the speaker a more open, spacious sound but also makes higher frequencies a tad more diffuse and less direct.
If only Google would resurrect the Chromecast Audio dongle, which allowed you to add Chromecast streaming capabilities to any existing sound system, our recommendation would be all the more enthusiastic.
Bluesound sells a number of other tabletop speakers and soundbars, but in our opinion none of them compare to the Pulse M in their design. If you like the look and feel of the Pulse M, you could build an entire whole-home system based on this speaker.
DTS Play-Fi is an open standard that is supported by a number of electronics companies. It supports 5.1-channel surround sound on wireless speakers, and it covers a wide selection of devices. Unfortunately, its network connectivity is dodgy at best, and setup can be a nightmare.
Yamaha MusicCast is currently available only in Yamaha devices, including soundbars, speakers, and receivers. The platform supports AirPlay and Bluetooth on all its devices but supports only a limited number of streaming services directly.
To play movies well, a 5.1 channel system needs to be dynamic -- to literally go from a whisper to a shout (or explosion) at a moment's notice. To best reproduce this you'll need a subwoofer, especially if you're using a soundbar. In addition, dialog needs to be clear and surround effects seamless in their transitions between speakers. When it comes to AV receivers I have found both Onkyo's TX-6100 and TX-Z50 to offer all of these attributes at reasonable prices, especially when paired with a Klipsch surround sound set. On the other hand, the best soundbars I've heard for movies are the higher-end Vizios, the Sonos Arc, Bose Smart Soundbar 900 and the Sennheiser Ambeo Max.
No matter your budget you should be able to find a system that suits you, though the more you spend, likely the better it will be. If you want a great home theater system, expect to pay at least $500 -- this will buy you the all-in-one Vizio M512a soundbar, for example. Meanwhile, a great AV and speaker combination such as the TX-SR6100 and the Klipsch Reference Cinema Dolby Atmos 5.1.4 System, will set you back $939. It's possible to spend a lot more than this, and if you're looking to build a dedicated room (or renovate a basement) you'll easily run up tens of thousands of dollars.
A home theater system doesn't need to mean a room full of speakers -- a stereo system can easily be a \"home theater\". But surround sound implies it has dedicated surround speakers, and it will offer better immersion than a stereo or even-the-best simulated surround systems.
I would suggest a 5.1.2 surround sound setup is suitable for rooms of any size, even if you have a smaller room. Breaking it down this is a left and right speaker, center, rear surrounds, a subwoofer and two height speakers (usually in the front). I've seen people layout 5.1-channel speakers in a line under the TV and while this will work, barely, it's best to arrange them around the seating area. Left and right speakers beside the TV (with Dolby heights directly on top), the center below the TV, and surrounds behind and slightly above you. Meanwhile, setting up a subwoofer is an art, and while it can literally go anywhere, you can follow these tips for good subwoofer sound.
When it comes to bang for buck, it doesn't get much better than the Roku Streambar home theater system. This speaker offers both a dialogue-enhancing soundbar and a built-in 4K streamer in one package. If you want more bass or surround speakers, the system is also upgradable. Usually selling for $130, it's currently on sale for $100. Read our Roku Streambar review
