"…this system can play so loud and accurately without for one moment gasping for air… The system sounds so vivid and so natural, I kept having to pinch myself. I would expect to pay multiples of this Theory package price to get to the same level. I can’t recommend it more than that.”

“In all my years of listening to and reviewing audio equipment, I’m not sure I have ever heard such an organic fusion between left and right loudspeakers and their corresponding surrounds. The Theory stage is cast uniquely wide, and yet effects placement within the front horizontal plane is stunningly accurate. The same happens with two-channel music sources. The result is as if to push the recording envelope out to the sides of the room while simultaneously imaging with precision across the front proscenium.”

Can you recreate commercial movie theater sound in your home for under $20,000? The Theory Audio Design 5.2.2 soundbar system makes that a reality.

“Put it all together and what you get with the Theory Audio Design system is a truly world-class home theater audio experience that sounds like it belongs on a mixing stage and looks like it belongs in the sort of luxury Midtown Manhattan penthouse apartment that I could only dream of affording.”

“Theory Audio Design has built the world’s finest soundbar system” is the only reasonable conclusion I could arrive at after a thorough audition. From build quality to sheer audio output capability, you won’t find another soundbar system that delivers reference-level output with the fidelity of a high-end speaker system.

"It’s almost a disadvantage to see this system before you heard it: the compacts size and sleek design of the sb25s may limit expectations. Don’t let them. With their subwoofer support and high-quality multichannel signals, they are able to deliver reference-class performance…"

"The sound is simply there, filling up your space with clarity, punch and attack in a way that no other soundbar has ever come close to.”

"I’m convinced that it can compete with any surround system of freestanding speakers and amplifiers of comparable price, and match or even exceed the dynamic range of many large tower speakers… If you’re looking for a highly dynamic home-theater speaker system that doesn’t take up a lot of floor space, I highly recommend that you give the Theory system a listen—it just might blow you away as it did me.”

"The Theory Audio Design system is the best home theater audio I have heard to date… It’s clear, pristine sound is powered by a beefy processor and amplifier in the background.”

“The sound quality and build of the products here will be hard to match and will give systems costing upwards of 2 to 5 times the price a good run for the money. I give this combination the highest recommendation for those seeking the best in surround and music sound.”
