Toshiba sound bar contest prize imageOne of the easiest ways to improve the sound of movie and TV shows in your home is to get a sound bar like the one from Toshiba we are giving away in this contest. Sometimes a simple solution is all you need. And what could be simpler then plugging it into your televisions HDMI port for instant amazing audio. Sound bars are extremely popular because many people want to improve the sound from their television without having to fuss with multiple components of a full audio system. There are a huge variety of them, with a range of features. Enter this contest for a chance to win one, and check out the full range of sound bars at Best Buy.

How can you improve your home theatre

Here are a few things you can do to improve the movie or TV experience in your home:

  1. Buy a new TV: okay this is the most obvious and one that many people do at this time of year. Why now? Fall is when most new TV shows launch and when many of the big sporting seasons either begin (hockey, basketball, and my favourite, football) or, and I’m thinking of baseball especially, end and announce their champion.
  2. Improve the viewing experience around the TV: As Shelly discusses in the article that I linked to here, with the TV as the hub, the rest of the room can be enhanced in many ways to improve your home theatre. You could mount the TV, get amazing home theatre seating, or add some smart lighting. Or perhaps a new popcorn machine is all you need in your home!
  3. Boost the audio: some televisions produce pretty good sound on their own, but amazing sound often requires add-on speakers.

Point number three in that list leads me to the important point of this article. You don’t need a degree in audio engineering to improve the sound in your home. Even the simplest audio solution, a sound bar, can make a huge difference. You’ll be amazed at the difference!

How to set up a sound bar in your home

Most sound bars are designed to set up quickly, usually with a single HDMI cable connected to the television and a power cable plugged into the electrical outlet. The Toshiba SBX-1020 is a great example of a simple audio enhancement for any TV watching situation. It’s quite small, to easily fit beneath most televisions. It’s a single component, so you aren’t concerned with placement of other components (like a subwoofer, for example). It’s also multi-functional, enabling you to also send audio to it from your mobile device over Bluetooth.

There are fancier sound bars with more built-in speakers and enhanced audio capabilities, even Dolby Atmos. Even those sound bars setup very easily though. When shopping for a sound bar, you should look at the range of options available within your price range and decide which model will best work in your home. For example, my living room has a high angled ceiling and Atmos just doesn’t work well. So, I’d focus on a sound bar without that feature. For my bedroom though, the Toshiba prize offered in this contest would be perfect!

  1. I would like to add a new tv, because I have 2 vertical lines on the left side and it’s driving me nuts!! 🙁

  2. I’d love to add a big comfy theatre seating and a new sound bar. Our current sound bar randomly turns itself off or on when you’re using it.

  3. I recently purchased Toshiba 50″ 4K UHD HDR LED Smart TV (The model: 50LF621C21) and have never been so infatuated by the quality of color and high dynamic range in other televisions; like I am with this Toshiba BEAST of a TV!!!

    Although I adore my current entertainment setup, the one feature that is absolutely missing is the premium sound quality that Toshiba sound bars deliver to the user experience when viewing and listening to the latest blockbuster movies; and video game releases!

    I am a lifelong Toshiba “fanboy” and have had always went with them over their competitors due to their diverse, ingenious, and innovative technologies! (From purchasing business products and their consumer products.) It would mean the world for me, to see that they appreciate my commitment to the brand; as much as I do them! <33

  4. I would like to add a really nice sound bar to my home theatre to make my movie and TV watching experience better! 😉

  5. I would get a 4K projector as it is so nice to have a large screen for movies that can be put away when not needed.

  6. Our last sound bar stopped working so would be nice to replace it. I would like a bar fridge to improve my T.V. viewing area.

  7. I would love to win this sound bar, to give to my father. His speakers stopped working over 2 years ago, we got him a new Samsung TV, but he has no speakers at all or a sound bar.

  8. We currently are using the built-in speakers on our tv. So we would love to add a set of good speakers or soundbar. In other words, this prize, should we be lucky enough to win it. 🙂

  9. We would like to add speaker system to out home theatre system to go with our recently upgraded Smart TV from Best Buy.

  10. I really should mount my tv so I can adjust the viewing angle to be just right, especially at different times of the day, and from different watching positions (couch vs kitchen sink) 😉

  11. I need a sound bar and a 4k TV. I currently have a 1080p tv and 20yr old surround sound speakers without all the wires to do surround sound, so they sit by the TV as a most basic upgrade above TV apeakers

  12. I would be very happy to have the opportunity to add the Toshiba SBX-1020 sound bar to our television to get a better quality of sound.

  13. I would like to add another 40 inches to my current 40 inch screen TV so I can really enjoy watching movies..

  14. I’d love to ADD this sound bar to my home theatre and then REMOVE my receiver and bulky speakers. The result would be a much cleaner look and less clutter in the great room with no loss (or an improvement) of audio.

  15. The tv will no longer let me control the volume from any remote control. A Soundbar would hopefully get rid of that issue.
