The Panorama 3 is a competent, detailed and weighty soundbar
Sleek low profile design ; Weighty bottom end ; Self-contained
Voices lack clarity ; Not a particularly expansive soundstage ; Tonally inconsistent

Much improved on the original and delivering a quality that justifies the price
Direct, focused sound ; Clear dialogue ; Great integration ; HDMI inputs ; Luxury design ; Superb build quality

Great build quality ; Sleek and stylish appearance ; Up-to-date Dolby surround processing ; Wireless streaming features ; Solid operation ; Good surround performance
DTS processing support ; Option to connect a subwoofer
The excellently built B&W PANORAMA 3 SOUNDBAR possesses the versatility and performance that bring good value to its $999 asking price.
