POLK AUDIO SURROUNDBAR 360-DEGREE DVD THEATER
$1,100
In the last few years, ''sound bars'' have emerged as viable alternatives to traditional six-speaker surround-sound systems. These all-in-one speakers employ high-tech wizardry to fool your ears into thinking sounds are coming at you from all directions. Setup was a snap, and the sounds were distinct and robust, even at lower frequencies. The Polk did a superb job of handling the first 40 minutes of Cast Away: The dialogue was clear and natural, the explosions rattled a nearby window, and the pounding surf had me constantly looking over my shoulder. —Wook Kim
