Philips B8500 Dolby Atmos Soundbar with Subwoofer
The Philips B8500 is an oval -shaped soundbar as we know it from previous editions of Philips. The Soundbar has a common width and other dimensions 900 x 65 x 105 mm (BXHXD), but is smartly designed especially for flat, central standards and feet of televisions including the new Philips OLED810 and MLED950 Series. The soundbar coincides nicely with the foot of those televisions (due to this limited height it does not block the screen) and is equipped with the same Satin Chome Sheen finish.
The Philips B8500 must deliver a room-filling sound thanks to the 5.1 configuration with a total power of 300W RMS. The dedicated LCR channels are each equipped with 2.25 inch drivers and the sideways-oriented channels have a 2inch driver per channel. Each of the five drivers in the Soundbar supplies 30 watts individually, while the subwoofer, which can be placed both vertically and horizontally, is equipped with an 8inch driver and has a capacity of 150 watts.
The Soundbar supports both Dolby Atmos, DTS: X + Virtual X and thus delivers a 3D SurroundSound experience and offers HDMI 2.1 EARC connectivity with 4K 120Hz pass-through. This provides improved audio transfer and provides a nice viewing and listening experience, especially with films, series and gaming. The BT5.4 wireless connectivity also offers support for Le Audio. Integrated LED screen indicates the status of the product. The Philips B8500 can be operated with the included remote control or via the Philips Entertainment app. Both the B8500 Soundbar and the subwoofer have a finish in Satin Chrome Sheen. The soundbar will be on the Dutch and Belgian market in September of this year. How much you can buy this soundbar is not yet known: the suggested retail price will be announced later this year.

Philips B8200 Dolby Atmos Soundbar
The Philips B8200 has a modest size with a width of 811 mm, a height of only 37 mm and a depth of 42 mm. It is therefore about as high as a match box and one of the lowest sound bars available. The B8200 is very suitable for TVs with a central standard, but can also be used well in combination with TVs on low standards or feet thanks to the minimum height and limited width. The Philips Design team in Amsterdam (Amsterdam Design Office) has created a soundbar with the B8200 that fits well with the various editions to be introduced through the smart design within the 8-series OLED televisions. The soundbar is equipped with small magnets that, with a click, can be attached to the elongated base of the TV and fits so nicely in the space under the screen. Both the B8200 Soundbar and the subwoofer have an elegant Satin Chome Sheen finish. Thanks to a separate tweeter and full-range racertrack driver in each channel of the 2.1 system, the B8200 delivers high-quality sound quality. The system has a total power of 160W RMS, with each of the drivers in the Soundbar 15W, good for a total of 60W. The also small subwoofer with double drivers delivers 120W and can be dismantled both horizontally and vertically.
Both Dolby Atmos and DTS: Virtual X are supported for 3D-Surroundsound. The B8200 is equipped with an HDMI 2.1 E-ARC connection, in addition, BT5.3 offers wireless connectivity with Le Audio compatibility. The B8200 Soundbar will be available in August. The suggested retail price will be announced later this year.

The Soundbar also has a more limited width of 600 mm. This makes it ideal for televisions with a smaller screen size (from 32 to 43 inches) to medium -sized TVs up to 55 inches. The introduction of the Kleine B6100 Soundbar takes place in May, the suggested retail price will be announced later this year. The 2.1 system has a total power of 200W RMS and contains two 2.25 inch drivers, each good for 40 watts. The subwoofer delivers 120 watts and ensures powerful low bass tones.
Dolby Atmos and DTS X + Virtual X are supported; In addition, the Philips B6100 has an HDMI 2.1 E-Arc connection and BT5.4 Wireless connectivity with Le Audio compatibility. For example, via Bluetooth, music can easily be played directly from a mobile device.
