Edifier S70DB SoundBar and Subwoofer Review

In most instances, TV manufacturers focus primarily on the viewing experience, and audio quality can be left as a bit of an afterthought. Edifier intends to improve on your TV listening experience with the S70DB SoundBar and Subwoofer combo featuring four 70mm aluminium mid-range bass amplifiers, two 19mm titanium film dome tweeters and an 8-inch sub. The S70DB is also equipped with Bluetooth V4.1 technology, which offers flexibility for connecting portable devices suggesting the S70DB might even replace your living room stereo as well. The S70DB boasts some excellent specs but does it live up to its £449.99 price?

KitGuru says: The Edifier S70DB offers a great audio experience, significantly improving on factory TV speaker setups and the inclusion of subwoofer makes the viewing experience really immersive. The inclusion of Bluetooth is nice to see, but the lack of manual EQ control is a bit of a missed opportunity. The Edifier S70DB is certainly an enthusiast class of product, with a price to match but for those looking to dramatically improve their TV audio, it's definitely worth considering.
