super kermit Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 OOPS it was a typo 10 x 5m I need to move away from separate receiver and speakers. Ambeo is 4000 AUS, not within 2500 budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even they is a massive room, I’d suggest a decent speaker set rather than sound bar for space like this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super kermit Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 I am moving away from a 7.2 speaker system so it has to be a soundbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have soundbar but like and have recommended Yamaha ones. The YSP-5600 is over budget (using list prices) with the addition of the wireless kit but may fit your needs https://au.yamaha.com/en/products/audio_visual/sound_bar/ysp-5600/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chill3 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Sorry but nothing exists that meets all those requirements - best Soundbar with Atmos is the Samsung 9 series ( $1999 RRP but can be got for less) - has much of what you want, wireless surrounds , ARC, 2 HDMI in optical in, 4k pass through wireless sub - sounds bloody good for a sound bar and goes loud - but no separate sub out. You will need to lose Atmos to get a sub out - look at Bose or Sonos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyW Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I'd be more inclined to go a decent 2.1 setup with small bookshelves over a sound bar.... Maybe a Hattor Audio amp and some Lenehan bookshelves.... So much choice in bookshelves really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super kermit Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 Bought a Samsung Q90R and have found a way around the sub out (I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
