I had a chance to test and compare two models: Akixno SR210 vs LG SK1 and this review should help people who are looking for a good soundbar. The Akixno SR210 was rated 4, while the LG SK1 has a rating 4.5.
Each of the models under consideration has active amplification type. By the number of channels, the devices do not differ. These rivals can be compared in terms of power, 20 versus 40 according to devices. The built-in subwoofer is not implemented in any of these models.
