The Sound Bar

Tiny, overcrowded elementary, middle- and high-school classrooms usually don’t allow room for high quality speakers, and what do you do with all those wires? But, what if you could get high quality audio out of a single bar no wider than a flat screen monitor that connects wirelessly? Well, that’s the idea behind Samsung’s HT-X810, a speaker bar that can fill any classroom with sound. The $700 speaker set is about the length of a 42-inch monitor, yet is only 6.5-inches tall and has an external subwoofer. The best part is that it can connect to a PC via its built-in Bluetooth radio and has 300-watt amplifier. Everyone in the class is sure to hear it all.
