Hello guys, my name is Luka and this is the Panasonic HTB490 Soundbar
The Panasonic HTB490 soundbar is a 2.1-channel soundbar that offers a simple and cost-effective method of boosting your TV's sound quality and when I say boost I mean - Extra Bass. The design is looking cheap, and the features are basic; it has wireless subwoofer and a decent amount of power, I mean - an impressive amount of power, when you will hear it you will understand what I am saying.
I want to tell you that over time I have had from the cheapest to the most expensive soundbars from JBL, Samsung, Lg and many others.
Stay with me to find out why you should buy this soundbar or what other alternatives you have at the same price
First of all The Panasonic HTB490 is a 2.1-channel soundbar composed of a main unit and a separate wireless subwoofer and has a total amount of power of 320 W.
The soundbar has a simple design, with fabric across the front and top and the build quality is good. Unfortunately, there's no display, aside from a pair of colored LED lights at the front that are very hard to understand.
The soundbar is relatively small and measures 800 x 56 x 101mm and weighs in at 1.9kg but the wireless subwoofer is relatively big and weighs 5.7kg.
On the top of the soundbar you will find mechanical buttons for powering the soundbar on and off, buttons for volume up and down, along with a button that has dual function - cycling through the inputs and Bluetooth pairing button
The remote control is very small but includes all the buttons you need, Thankfully, the inclusion of HDMI-ARC on the soundbar means that if you connect the soundbar directly to the TV via HDMI through the CEC function you will not need the remote control because it reproduces the TV controls in terms of volume and turn on and off
The Panasonic soundbar has on the back an HDMI-ARC connector, an optical digital audio input, a USB port and also has Bluetooth 4.2 for a wireless connection with the smartphone- so it has the basics!
The soundbar main unit has 160 w same as the wireless subwoofer.
While the bass reflex ports help the soundbar go deeper, the lower frequencies are primarily handled by the separate wireless subwoofer.
The HTB490 supports the following audio formats: Dolby Digital, DTS, along with two-channel LPCM.
It is very easy to install. after plugging in the soundbar and subwoofer, plug in the HDMI cable to your TV and you're ready to use - it's very easy to install.
Considering the price at which I bought it - $ 200 - the sound is exceptional, obviously it doesn't have the quality of a $ 1000 system, but in terms of bass it fights with much more expensive systems and in my opinion is a strong buy!
The soundbar with the 2 speakers produce good stereo presence, with a clean and detailed sounds. The mid-range is ok’ish, while the higher frequencies are also good.
The strong points of this system are - the sub that has plenty of power, the no need of remote due to the HDMI ARC connection and the price- 200$ and the weak point is the lack of a display
If the Panasonic HTB490 soundbar don't offer you a full surround experience, it does a great job of rendering the dialogue, music and sound effects.
You can Maxx up the volume without it distorting or sounding weird and the sub does an excellent job of handling the big bass sounds.
Conclusion The Panasonic SC-HTB490 offers good value at 200$, is a capable 2.1-channel soundbar that does exactly what it sets out to do and is a cheap and easy method of boosting the sound quality of your TV and the sub will amaze you.
