Philips Audio TAB8967 has been introduced as a high-end soundbar with Dolby Atmos 5.1.2 channels. You have to splurge ₹44,990 to own this 780W audio setup. It appears to be available on Amazon India at a lower price tag though. And so, if it makes you wonder what the Philips soundbar brings in for that much money, here’s a breakdown of its specs and features.
1. Philips TAB8967 is a 5.1.2CH Dolby Atmos soundbar. There are 3 front-firing speakers, 2 rear speakers, 2 up-firing speakers, and an 8-inch subwoofer, all of which in tandem offer a 360-degree surround sound effect.
2. The whole sound setup is capable of producing 780W of audio output in which the soundbar singlehandedly outs 390 watts of sound. As mentioned already, this comes backed by a subwoofer. It is compatible with Dolby Digital Plus compression technology.
3. The rear speakers are connected by a cable. They are connected to the soundbar over the air. So, most of the setup works wirelessly, and you can control the sound output using a remote. You also get Chromecast, Apple AirPlay 2, Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band WiFi ac, a 3.5mm audio jack, dual HDMI ports (with eARC), and 4K pass-through support.
