Polk Audio Releases Their First Dolby Atmos Soundbar, the Signa S4

In the past, I've given high marks in my reviews of new Polk Soundbars like their MagniFi Max, MagniFi mini, and Command Bar. These budget friendly soundbars give you a better sound than what comes with your TV, plus the benefit of easily streaming...

I’ve found that Polk soundbars have been pretty effortless to set up, so I’d bet that the Signa S4 is no exception. The system comes with an included HDMI and optical cable which should make setup a breeze even with the latest 8K Ultra-HD TVs, and the...
