It'll be released in UK soon, but is it worth buying it if you already have a Playbar?

What are the improvements?

From what I have read there are no improvements. It's the sound bar internals packaged differently for those who prefer to sit their TV on a stand.

Neater if you use a stand perhaps but my sound bar looks absolutely fine to me.

Nope - same price including recent price increase!

I paid £499 for mine 2 years ago. They are £699 now which is a hell of a lot of cash.

No DTS. No HDMI.

For me there are better solutions for your TV.

Love Sonos for music. They are not great for TV for me.

Wow. Didn't realise price has gone up. Still love Playbar but it's cloth material is not good with cats and hard to clean.
