Our Take On The Bluesound Pulse Soundbar+
Designed specifically to fit perfectly under your High Def TV, the Bluesound Pulse Soundbar+ produces crystal clear, 24-bit resolution and audiophile-grade bass response – although for the ultimate in bass depth and impact we recommend the wireless Bluesound Pulse Sub+. This is the soundbar your TV deserves. That's what makes Bluesound so special - is that it's all about high-resolution audio. It has everything an audio enthusiast and aesthetic minded person might be looking for. Connectivity, style, quality materials and craftsmanship and of course sonic performance. Audio quality and details in movies is far better than you would expect, but the Pulse Soundbar+ excels on audio, even on semi decent resolution files it delivers a detailed soundstage. So, movie & music lovers should really hear this fine soundbar.
