The new Hisense HT Saturn is a 4.1.2 Dolby Atmos wireless home theater system with four speakers and a single subwoofer, which uses a small HDMI ARC/eARC breakout box as a transmitter a similar configuration to Sonys Bravia Theater Quad.Hisense hasnt released pricing or availability for the HT Saturn yet.HisenseHisense has equipped the Dolby Atmos soundbar alternative with two features that should make it especially appealing to some Hisense TV owners: an automatic room calibration system that gives you flexibility of placement for the speakers, and in another move that mimics the Bravia Theater Quads S-center channel tech, Hisenses Hi-Concerto feature lets a Hisense TVs speakers share the audio duties with the wireless speakers.Recommended VideosThese features only work with some Hisense TVs, but we havent received an official list of the compatible models.Please enable Javascript to view this contentThe system itself is compatible, however, with any TV that has an HDMI ARC/eARC or optical output (it also works with Bluetooth), but as with Hisenses other soundbar offerings, youll be able to control and configure the HT Saturn using a Hisense TV remote, once again making the system feel much more integrated for Hisense TV owners.RelatedThe system also works with DTS:X and has a total of 13 speakers. Hisense hasnt given us a breakdown of the kinds and sizes of drivers, other than the 6.5-inch subwoofer. It can be tuned using one of five available EQ modes, including presets for movies, music, sports, and more.Hisense hasnt said if, like the Bravia Theater Quad, the transmitter box includes an HDMI input(s) to offset the HDMI port that the system will occupy on your TV.Our first chance to see and hear the HT Saturn will be at CES 2025, where we also expect to see Hisenses latest TVs, laser TVs, and other audio and video products.Editors Recommendations
