Not every room has the space, or the desire, for an additional subwoofer unit alongside a soundbar, and models without a separate subwoofer are specifically designed to deliver a genuinely worthwhile upgrade over TV speakers in the most compact, tidy package possible. With all the necessary drivers housed within the single bar itself, these soundbars offer the simplest possible setup, requiring just one unit and typically a single cable connection to your TV.

While they won't match the outright bass impact of a soundbar paired with a dedicated subwoofer, today's all-in-one soundbars still deliver genuinely impressive clarity, width and low-end performance for their compact size, making them an excellent choice for bedrooms, smaller living rooms, or anyone who simply prefers a minimal, uncluttered setup without an additional box to position.

For anyone wanting the most space-efficient possible upgrade to their TV's sound, a soundbar without a separate subwoofer offers excellent performance and genuine simplicity in a single, tidy package.
