The good: The Atlantic Technology PB-235 PowerBar is a truly innovative sound bar, capable of producing credible bass performance without a separate subwoofer. Its sound quality is best-in-class for a sound bar, even compared with competitors that include a sub. It also has more connectivity than the average sound bar, including three digital inputs.
The bad: The PB-235 is massive. It's tall enough to obscure most TV screens so wall-mounting (of the sound bar or your TV) is almost a must. It's also very expensive, and you can get better sound with a pair of tower speakers and an inexpensive receiver. A system this high-end deserves a better remote.
The bottom line: It's pricey and cumbersome, but Atlantic Technology's PB-235 sound bar works near-magic by pumping deep bass without a subwoofer.
