WHAT HI-FI? AWARDS 2021
BEST SOUNDBAR ₹1,00,000-₹1,50,000 PRODUCT OF THE YEAR
Standing proudly on its own two rubberised feet, the HT-A7000 doesn't require any additional speakers to justify its hefty price point or its position as Sony's flagship soundbar. This 7.1.2 slab of sound packs two up-firing speakers, two beam tweeters, five front-facing drivers and a built-in dual subwoofer into a single chassis. If you want to add to the HT-A7000, you can almost double its price with a choice of subwoofers and surround speakers. Now, while we understand that low frequencies are most faithfully reproduced by larger drivers, and that reflected surround sound is no match for direct audio, often we've found multi-box systems aren't as cohesive as a whole.
At a hefty 8.7kg and 8cm high, the HT-A7000 is made up of a blend of materials, textures and shades of black, from the fabric covering the upward drivers and a perforated metal front grille, to the polished glass top surface with capacitive function buttons.

A pair of powered baby floorstanders that have big shoes to fill
YG Acoustics Carmel 3
On paper, the Carmel 3 from Colorado-based speaker specialist YG Acoustics has a credibility problem. They cost a huge amount of money but are small, rather plain-looking two-way floorstanders.
