With the Denon Home Soundbar 550, you can lose yourself in your favorite movies and series thanks to Dolby Atmos. This technology sends effects to your listening position via the ceiling, so they sound extra spacious. You can hear a car driving from left to right and it'll seem like an airplane is flying right over your head. Has the movie ended? Stream your favorite songs to the soundbar via WiFi or Bluetooth.

The Denon Home Soundbar 550 is a good soundbar with enough power for a TV in the living room or bedroom. Connection to the soundbar is reliable and very easy to establish via Bluetooth or AirPlay. You also never have to turn on the soundbar before you want to connect to it, which makes it easy to use. As someone who attaches great importance to sound with both music and TV, I am very satisfied with the sound quality of this soundbar. The highs, mids and lows just sound good. The bass and treble can of course be adjusted yourself and this also sounds downright good. However, I can strongly recommend buying this soundbar with the available additional speakers to create a surround sound. The soundbar itself is good, just not exceptional. With additional speakers, this soundbar will fit very well in your bedroom or living room, the sound is expected to be complete. I myself have not had these speakers. Finally, the soundbar sometimes needs a moment when you just turn on the TV or switch between music via Airplay/Bluetooth. After about 5-10 seconds you will have sound.
The soundbar is not long, but slightly higher than other soundbars, keep this in mind if the TV is not too high from the TV cabinet. The soundbar does not make any noise when not in use, I find this very important since I am somewhat sensitive to high beeps that you sometimes have with sound systems that are 'off'.

See negatives. I sent it back for that reason, because I didn't use speakers that I already have.

In the end, the soundbar not automatically turning on via eArc HDMI turned out to be inconvenient: I don't have this problem with a Sony HT-X8500. The difference between this soundbar and the Sony soundbar I wanted to replace was not that shocking in terms of sound. Voices were soon "tinny", as with many soundbars.
