For those uninitiated, soundbar is a thin, oblong-shaped device comprising of several individual speakers placed next to each other. They can be mounted on the wall, under the TV or placed on the TV stand itself. Soundbar is a simple tool for improving sound of the television, which is easy to set up and usually takes less space.

Despite all the aforementioned factors, lack of awareness and hefty cost of soundbars may impede industry expansion over the forecast timespan.
