If you are into gaming, you know how important it is to enjoy/hear video games in their full audio glory. Today's audio formats put us in the middle of the action and there is no better way to get there than with a good sounding system. Some people have the available space to install full speaker system, but those with limited options might want to consider a soundbar like the N1 Gaming SoundBar from Polk Audio.
The N1 is a 39-inch Bluetooth-equipped Sound Bar with built-in Gaming EQs for use with the Xbox console. According to Polk, the N1 is a full range Dolby Digital gaming surround bar and it is the first-ever sound bar designed and engineered in collaboration with Microsoft and the brains behind the sound design of games like Halo® and Forza®. For added bass response, Polk recommends their PSW10 or PSW108 subwoofers that can be easily connected via the N1's dedicated sub jack output. The included remote controller features the basic functions like Power, Mute, Source, Volume, Bass and Mode.
There are several other options to choose from these days, but if you are looking for one, this might just be your ticket.
