Recommended Wireless Surround Sound Systems

The Hisense HT Saturn is not only the lowest priced system, but it also finished first or second in every category and this may be a controversial take, but I liked it even better than the Bravia Quad in most content. That also made me curious to try out the Hi-Concerto mode using Hisense’s $6000 L9Q, that also has a sound system tuned by Devialet. Frankly, it was terrible and the projector’s speaker sounded worse than the phantom center produced by the HT Saturn and adding the L9Q’s speakers absolutely ruined the front sound stage separation. So, if you get the HT Saturn, there’s no need to get FOMO about not using Hi-Concerto mode.

The Sony Bravia Quad with SW5 subwoofer sounds pretty good, and I don’t think most people would find many faults with it. But while the Hisense HT Saturn is a $1000 system that sounds like a $2000 system, the Bravia Quad is a $3400 system that sounds like a $2000 system. I would say that if you just love Sony products or you have a really strange room with terrible speaker placement the Bravia Quad with its room correction and DSP may work for you, but in most cases the Hisense is a better option not only in terms of value, but also sound quality.
