Soundbar ULTIMEA Poseidon D60 Review

[Étienne]

This true Dolby 5.1‑channel system under $200 totally surprised me—it easily outperforms other budget setups I’ve tried.

1. Punchy, detailed sound The 410 W peak output delivers real presence. I cranked up “Hotel California” in Music Mode and could hear every pick scrape on the guitar neck, while the shaker’s soft rattles felt like they were just behind my right shoulder.
2. Zero‑fuss setup Just plug the two small satellite speakers into the subwoofer, connect the main bar to your TV’s HDMI port, and power up—the system turns on and links itself instantly. I had my teenager up and running in under a minute, no manuals needed.
3. True Dolby surround immersion Eight distinct drivers map out the action with surprising precision. During Ready Player One, the sound of coins pinging around the room was so accurate I actually leaned to catch them.
4. All the connections you’ll ever need From HDMI eARC and optical to Bluetooth and USB, this thing hooks up to everything. Most days I stream via Bluetooth, but I switch to eARC for movies without missing a beat.

If you push big orchestral crescendos too hard, the little 12 W satellites can struggle. I just dialed down low‑end gain in the app and smoothed out the peaks. The Poseidon D60 is my go‑to budget upgrade.
