Sound bars have become a great alternative for many users. Its simplicity of installation offers a clear improvement of the sound of the television to users who do not want to mess with complicated speaker installations. For this reason, the most important manufacturers of audio equipment continue to launch new sound bars on the market. One of Denon's latest additions is the Denon DHT-S316, a compact soundbar with a wireless subwoofer that is easy to install and is fairly competitively priced . We are going to know the 5 best features of this device.
Compact size
Many times users who opt for a sound bar do so due to lack of space. The Denon DHT-S316 is only 5.5 centimeters tall , allowing it to be placed in virtually any space. Even in front of the TV, since, in the vast majority of models, it will not cover the infrared sensor on the remote.
And if you have the TV hanging on the wall, you can place the sound bar just below. It has a simple assembly thanks to the template provided along with the bar.
The bar is 90 centimeters wide, so it will fit perfectly with almost any television. On the other hand, the subwoofer is wireless , so we won't have to worry about wiring.
Multichannel sound
Its exterior minimalism does not mean that we do not have a good sound system inside. The Denon DHT-S316 integrates two midrange speakers and two tweeters . These are complemented by the deep bass provided by the subwoofer.
The sound bar is capable of decoding Dolby Digital and DTS sound . It also incorporates Dolby Virtual Surround technology , which is capable of recreating multi-channel effects with a single speaker.
Dialog Optimizer
One of the big problems with using an external sound system is balancing sound effects and dialogue. How many times have you had to turn up the volume a lot to hear the dialogue and when a shot or an explosion rang out, you almost died of fright?
To avoid this Denon has included the Dialog Optimizer . This technology improves the intelligibility of dialogue, making it ideal for television shows and movies. Allows you to raise the level of dialogue without having to adjust the overall volume.
Easy installation and wireless connectivity
The Denon DHT-S316 connects to the TV using an HDMI cable to the HDMI ARC connector on the TV. This allows you to send the audio from the TV to the soundbar without complications. In addition, it has an optical digital input and an analog AUX input that will allow us to connect the bar to televisions without HDMI ARC connectivity.
On the other hand, it also has a Bluetooth connection . This allows you to play music on the sound bar directly from your mobile or tablet, as if it were any other Bluetooth speaker.
Adjusted Price
In short, the Denon DHT-S316 is a soundbar that seeks to improve the sound of the television without too many complications . It is easy to install and operate, with dialogue-enhancing sound and supported by a wireless subwoofer.
It has a single HDMI input (in addition to the optical one), so it is not a bar designed to act as a multimedia center for all our devices. The Denon DHT-S316 is already on sale with an official price of 280 euros .
