Denon DHT-S316 2.1ch Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer

A Simple Upgrade That Transforms Your TV's Sound

The Denon DHT-S316 2.1ch Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer pairs a slim two-way bar with a wireless subwoofer to give any TV the clear dialogue and real bass its built-in speakers cannot. One HDMI cable, Denon's Dialogue Enhancer and virtual surround, and you have a proper home theatre upgrade that sets up in minutes.

Why You'll Love It

• Clear dialogue, every time. Denon's Dialogue Enhancer lifts voices out of the mix so you catch every word without cranking the overall volume, with Dialogue, Movie and Music modes plus a Night mode for late viewing.
• Real bass, placed anywhere. The wireless subwoofer adds the depth TV speakers miss and connects without a cable, so you can tuck it wherever it sounds best.
• Barely there. At just 5.5 cm tall it sits in front of the TV without blocking the screen or the remote sensor, or mounts on the wall with the included template.

Under the Hood

• Two-way sound, wider stage. Dual mid-range drivers and tweeters, plus Denon Virtual Surround with Dolby Digital and DTS decoding for a more immersive sound.
• One-cable HDMI. HDMI ARC with CEC and an included HDMI cable, so one connection carries the sound and lets your TV remote control the bar.
• Plenty of inputs. Optical and 3.5 mm AUX inputs plus built-in Bluetooth for streaming from a phone or tablet.

CHT Insider Verdict

The DHT-S316 is one of the easiest wins in home audio, a real step up from flat TV speakers for not a lot of money. The wireless subwoofer and Dialogue Enhancer are what set it apart at this price, giving you the two things people most want from a soundbar: fuller bass and dialogue you can actually follow. Plug in one cable and you are done.

Pro Tip: Connect the bar to your TV's HDMI ARC port rather than a standard HDMI input. That single cable carries the sound and lets you control the bar with your TV remote. If your TV has no ARC port, use the optical input instead.
