Sony HT-ST5000
Bose Smart Soundbar 700 with Speakers + Bass Module
The Bose Smart Soundbar 700 with Speakers + Bass Module is a bit better for mixed usage than the Sony HT-ST5000. The Bose comes with discrete satellites that help offer a better surrounds performance. Unlike the Sony, it also comes with built-in voice assistant support. It reproduces a more extended low-bass, and it has a better stereo soundstage. That said, only the Sony supports Dolby Atmos content and comes with a Full HDMI In port.
