Denon DHT-S316
According to our soundbar expert
You can easily place the Denon DHT-S316 in every room. This soundbar has a compact size, so you can easily place it on a cabinet under the TV. You can also mount it on the wall. Because the subwoofer is wireless, you can easily place it out of sight. The soundbar creates a virtual surround effect by sending the music to your listening position in different directions. Thanks to the combination with the subwoofer, sound effects are powerfully amplified. Do you have hearing problems? The soundbar has Denon Dialogue Enhancer technology. Thanks to this, voices are highlighted. Rather listen to music? Via Bluetooth, you can stream music from your phone, tablet, or laptop to the soundbar.
Connect the Denon DHT-S316 to your TV
Use the included HDMI ARC or the optical cable to connect your soundbar to your television. Note that your TV has to have an HDMI ARC or optical connector to be able to use the soundbar. We recommend the HDMI ARC cable.

I would like to include you in my review for this fun and easy to connect soundbar from Sonos.
When I received the package, I was a bit hesitant, because I expected quite a large, but also heavy packaging. Not super big and certainly not heavy, even on the light side. A bit of soundbar including sub weighs a bit. But hey, don't judge immediately. When unpacking, the beautiful and sleek design quickly became visible, and everything neat and complete. Easy and short manual, I like that. The connection would be arranged in a few steps. Plug and play, I'll come back to that later.
Still a little worried when unpacking the optical cable and the remote control. These seem to come directly from Wish or AliExpress for a few euros. I've never seen such a thin optical cable and the remote control is so small and fragile that I thought it can't work.
A plus is the ARC HDMI (if your TV also has this HDMI input). Connecting via this cable is really recommended. Sound through your TV remote! Saves another remote.
Well, quickly connect via ARC HDMI, power on and go I would say. With a little doubts given the above, but let's see what this set can handle. Well, well, then it doesn't disappoint at all. Great sound, easy to operate and to control the sub separately. Despite the fact that you do not have many setting options, you can work with this just fine. Just a little more or less bass, and your volume up (up, up) or down. The neighbors were perhaps less enthusiastic. You can also have this set at home with gaming, music or just with your favorite movie or series.
No, ok, it is not a multi-functional soundbar, with all kinds of nice options and 5.1 dolby, and the sound and bass could really be better here and there, but to be honest it is a great product with good sound and therefore certainly the worth it.

Addition to my previous review: I now know why the ARC function is not working. My TV needs a signal on one of the HDMI connections, only then does the soundbar turn on. When I start the Netflix app, the soundbar does not turn on. So now if I want to watch Netflix, I also have to leave my Horizon box on. So this is a problem with my television (Philips) and not the Soundbar!

What a great product. The Denon soundbar is as good as plug and play. Take the soundbar and subwoofer out of the box and connect the soundbar via HDMI and/or optical out, plug in the subwoofer and you're good to go. The sound is certainly not inferior to the average home theater set, although you can of course not expect miracles from a soundbar. The separate subwoofer ensures that you can place it anywhere, as long as you have a connection for power. The voice mode is very useful, so that your talk shows always come through without your TV on 'war' mode. Watching a movie is a pleasure, where especially the sub adds a lot to the decent action movies on Netflix. Also nice, you can simply operate it with the remote control of your TV. Bluetooth also works like a charm: 1x connect to, for example, your mobile and you can stream your YouTube videos with a sound that you say to you.
Is there nothing unpleasant then? Well, I miss a kind of display on the soundbar where you can see which mode of sound is set and what the sound volume is. Given this wonderful price and the good sound, however, that is completely forgivable. Recommended if you want solid sound for a great price.
