'A Little Bit Of A Bargain'

Since the flat-screen television became ‘a thing’ a couple of decades ago, one of the major complaints has been a relative lack of competence when it comes to sound reproduction. Enter the soundbar – a product, like so many we review nowadays, that was unheard of 20 years ago.

Over time, the soundbar has become more sophisticated, more complicated and, therefore, more expensive. Now you can invest big money in a superb soundbar that will give you Dolby Atmos, ‘surround sound’, huge bass via a subwoofer, and all manner of inputs and streaming abilities.

The JVC TH-W513B isn’t one of those. At £60, this Currys UK exclusive is a throwback to those original intentions. Pretty much its sole purpose is to boost a TV that struggles with sound reproduction. And it does that rather well.
