Very good Soundbar for small/compact spaces/rooms
Top reviews from India
There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
- Reviewed in India on 26 December 2024Colour: Black, 200WVerified PurchaseI purchase this sound bar exactly when it was released Sept 2024 and I got it on 10th of Sep.
I was looking for a sub 10k soundbar with dolby digital atleast but with eARC support as my TV supports it. I had too many options from Samsung's entry level and Jbl (forgot the model name) I was leaning towards Motorola Amphisoundx 200 as it was within my budget and passed all the requirement I needed but still was a bit hesitant buying Motorola as that time it was their first soundbar ever. Then I happened to see this soundbar's ad on the amazon homepage for some reason I loved it from the first look and all specs got my attention and it had 'Dobly Atmos' which Moto lacked (not even digital) this was tempting as I never heard of any soundbar sub 15k to deliver Dolby Atmos that too with Bluetooth 5.3 first I thought okay let's try if it is not worthy I'll return it but this was not returnable you like it or not you have to keep it. I was very doubtful Dolby Atmos @10k was sounding very tempting and fishy at the same but as I had a great past experience with Zebronics and their service (maybe first time for any Indian brand) so I decided to go ahead as I have series center in my city so that was an assurance if by chance something go downhill as I was also looking to go with 'Govo' but lack of brand identity and no service center in my city I sticked to Zeb.
And finally when it arrived the first think which caught my eyes was damn how slick, small and beautiful the Subwoofer looks I was not able to understand how it is 120w and soo slim and somewhere I had this fear man do they even sound good as they are marketing?
And to my surprise 😮 this soundbar exceeded my expectations I played a Dolby Atmos movie and voila (had a smile 😃) these sounded too good for the size (this dude does mean by the phrase "Size doesn't matter pun intended " 😀 '.
I tried multiple songs and videos from YT all sounded quite rich and airy they have only 2 drivers but belive me these are quality one. One of my friend has Philips soundbar he bought just a month ago before me for 18k which only had Dolby Digital he told my this one is more louder and crisp (this was enough for chest to go 54") though bass is a bit on lower side but I can tell you this gives a premium sound trait as the sub bass is damm good you will feel the bass when it is needed and it'll make sure you feel it not like Boat soundbar 100% times on KGF steroids 🤣.
So overall I have completed 15 months with these 1000% satisfied can't ask much for the price I have paid, I'm quite surprised they are selling for the same price as they did during launch, so if someone looking for a decent yet satisfactory Dolby Atmos experience can easily buy this you won't regret.
But here's something you should know before getting one.
Make sure your TV supports HDMI that too 2.1 (minimum) this is very important there's no use to accuse brand for your lack of knowledge (as many have did in reviews already).
2nd use with eARC for best experience and buy a good cable it's a one time purchase as the brand doesn't provide any.
3rd always try to keep the soundbar on the floor a slight .5 mtr away from soundbar for best immersive sound experience.
Always remember the price don't expect 20-30k soundbar experience with these buy still these won't disappoint in any manner.
This maybe long but that's all my experience to share hope it helps.
- Reviewed in India on 10 August 2023Colour: Black-450Verified PurchaseThis true review comes after 3 days of purchase. I may update it later.
I will start with the things that I didn't like, in fact, "disliked" is the correct word for many ('dislike' is a stronger emotion):
1. The chord length is just too short. Do note my subwoofer placement. This placement is highly undesirable. But because of the short chord length (barely 1 m), I have no option. ALL ADVANTAGE OF WIRELESS BLUETOOTH IS LOST.
2. There is no setup guide and I had to look at YouTube videos before I could get it working.
3. My Sony TV (65" X80K) has eARC. I first connected this out to HDMI-In 1 of the soundbar. But there was no sound. Then when I connected to the HDMI-ARC of the soundbar, the sound was heard.
4. Later, I will list other issues between connectivity and getting/receiving Dolby Atmos.
5. The remote is pretty basic.
6. The display is pretty basic and when on standby, it always displays "--" in bright LED. It would have been nicer if the LED display could be completely turned off.
7. When we start a program the surround mode such as "Dolby Surround" or "Dolby Atmos" scrolls across the display and then the display shows "ARC" (see second pic). So after the program has started there is no way to know what kind of surround sound is playing. It would have been better if tiny LEDs had been provided to indicate Standby (red/green), Dolby Digital (white), Dolby Atmos (white), etc.
8. Atmos sound does not feel much different than regular surround sound. It is not 5.1.2 but I knew that and I DIDN'T WANT 5.1.2 as I do have a dedicated theatre room with projector/screen, AVR, BDP, etc.
9. Unboxing is not that easy.
But I guess within the price, this is not bad. Still, the short mains cable length (for the soundbar itself and the subwoofer), is just not acceptable. One may have to buy an extension board. I know, I will have to. Not that that is great extension board is expensive, especially for a TV of ₹95,000 and a soundbar of ₹16,000. But the point is the additional clutter. Have a look at the complete pic of the TV, soundbar and s/w. Now more clutter will be added which really peeves me off.
OK. Now the plus points:
1. The soundbar has very good 2.1.2 sound. Please see point 8 above. Don't expect miracles. I was not.
2. The sound is really powerful. I play between levels 04 to 08. Even 08 is really loud.
3. The main soundbar has 6 speakers - 2 main left-right speakers pointing straight, 2 surround left-right speakers pointing slightly outward and 2 upward pointing speakers on the top at some 45° upward. Together these can produce very good surround effects including 3D height effect by bouncing the sound off the ceiling.
4. Soundbar has 2 HDMI-In, 1 HDMI ARC in-out, Optical and mini-RCA in. So we cannot connect the soundbar to any source. There is USB-in also.
5. All cables and mounting brackets are included.
6. Atmos sound (2.1.2) will be via HDMI connection only. (Please read the last section). Dolby Surround (2.1) can be via Optical-in. RCA connection will produce pure stereo 2.1 sound (will not fire the 2 surround speakers inside).
7. S/w connects wirelessly to the soundbar. If the connection is not automatic, there is a red press button at the rear to establish it. I did not have to do this.
8. There is a USB port at the back of s/w. But this is for firmware updates only.
(We can play off the USB also. Load the audio or video on the USB and connect it to the USB port of the main soundbar. It will play sound and video will be sent to the TV when the ARC-out of the soundbar is connected to TV. Even if the USB video has Atmos sound, I don't think that it will play Atmos sound - just guessing, not tested this.)
Don't go too much by the cons that I listed. These may not apply to you. The price and features are very attractive for this unit and it is "paisa-vasool". RECOMMENDED BUY. But use it in smaller rooms such as 14' x 12' or smaller. For bigger rooms, go for the 5.1.2 soundbar like the ZebronicJuke BAR 9750 PRO 5.1.2 or similar.
------
Now the issues that I faced with getting Atmos sound:
1. I have a Sony X80K TV that is connected to the network via Ethernet.
2. I have subscribed to Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+ Hotstar. All are UHD plans.
3. Whereas Netflix shows icons such as Dolby Vision/HD, Atmos/5.1, etc., Prime and D+ do not show anything.
4. A lot of programs on NF have D-Vision and D-Atmos whereas almost none on Prime/D+H. I was pretty disappointed that all the Avengers movies were DD+ only.
5. I also have TataPlay Binge+ Box (HDMI-1 of TV) and Sony UBP-X700 4K all region Blue-Ray player (HDMI-2 of TV).
6. I play OTT content directly from the TV.
After connections, I expected plug-and-play sound such as Atmos when enabled programs. But initially NF shows with Atmos sound wouldn't play sound; DD+ sound was not an issue. I was not figuring out why. Then I had to change the TV settings and enable the soundbar from TV. Still no luck. After putting both on standby and restarting, the Atmos sound was playing. So yes ... this soundbar can play Atmos sound provided:
- The TV or device has the capability to decode it
- One is subscribed to the highest plan
- The TV has an HDMI eARC port (sorry, plain ARC won't work)
- High-speed cable is connected to the TV's eARC port and ARC port of soundbar
- Just for fun, I connect the HDMI-2 sound-only port of my BDP to the soundbar's HDMI-1 via another HDMI cable; I played Captain America - The Winter Soldier 4k/UHB Blu-ray (it is visible in one of the photos) and the display flashed/scrolled "Dolby Atmos"
The point is the TV must enable sound via the eARC port; it is not automatic. Every TV will have different settings so I cannot go into many details. But once again, the soundbar can output Atmos sound if the source has it. One may not notice much difference, but that is another story; maybe a very loud volume is required.
Hope this review helps potential buyers.

But use it in smaller rooms such as 14' x 12' or smaller. For bigger rooms, go for the 5.1.2 soundbar like the ZebronicJuke BAR 9750 PRO 5.1.2 or similar.

Now the issues that I faced with getting Atmos sound:
1. I have a Sony X80K TV that is connected to the network via Ethernet.
2. I have subscribed to Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+ Hotstar. All are UHD plans.
3. Whereas Netflix shows icons such as Dolby Vision/HD, Atmos/5.1, etc., Prime and D+ do not show anything.
4. A lot of programs on NF have D-Vision and D-Atmos whereas almost none on Prime/D+H. I was pretty disappointed that all the Avengers movies were DD+ only.
5. I also have TataPlay Binge+ Box (HDMI-1 of TV) and Sony UBP-X700 4K all region Blue-Ray player (HDMI-2 of TV).
6. I play OTT content directly from the TV.
After connections, I expected plug-and-play sound such as Atmos when enabled programs. But initially NF shows with Atmos sound wouldn't play sound; DD+ sound was not an issue. I was not figuring out why. Then I had to change the TV settings and enable the soundbar from TV. Still no luck. After putting both on standby and restarting, the Atmos sound was playing. So yes ... this soundbar can play Atmos sound provided:
- The TV or device has the capability to decode it
- One is subscribed to the highest plan
- The TV has an HDMI eARC port (sorry, plain ARC won't work)
- High-speed cable is connected to the TV's eARC port and ARC port of soundbar
- Just for fun, I connect the HDMI-2 sound-only port of my BDP to the soundbar's HDMI-1 via another HDMI cable; I played Captain America - The Winter Soldier 4k/UHB Blu-ray (it is visible in one of the photos) and the display flashed/scrolled "Dolby Atmos"
The point is the TV must enable sound via the eARC port; it is not automatic. Every TV will have different settings so I cannot go into many details. But once again, the soundbar can output Atmos sound if the source has it. One may not notice much difference, but that is another story; maybe a very loud volume is required.
Hope this review helps potential buyers.
