    "An Absolute Stunner"

    The compact SB-2 passive soundbar from Monitor Audio is engineered for seamless integration with today's flat panel TVs. The SB-2 boasts three separate driver arrays for left, center, right channels in a single cabinet. All three channels feature an identical driver complement consisting of an individual 4" C-CAM® mid-bass, 1" C-CAM tweeter, and sealed ABR (Auxiliary Bass Radiator) driver per section (for a total of three of each).

    "If you’re tired of your screen rattling, or your video impressing but audio being left behind, then the SB-2 might just be your ticket to more engaging and immersive sports events, blockbusters, video games, or even sitcoms," reports Greg May, Truly Net, April 2015. "In this price range, it’s an absolute stunner for performance without any unnecessary bells and whistles, and the build quality is top-notch."

    Rigid, Attractive, and Powerful

    The SB-2 uses all-MDF construction and the cabinet is internally braced for additional rigidity. An acoustically transparent wrap-around black cloth finish with solid brushed aluminum cabinet-side trim offers the perfect matching style for TV displays. Low-profile silicon rubber feet are integrated for secure cabinet top placement.

    In larger rooms, the SB-2 can be used with a partnering Monitor Audio subwoofer to deliver the best possible audio experience. Within smaller environments and systems, the SB-2 will deliver effortless full range audio way beyond the limits of any TV's sound system.

    The SB-2 Soundbar is recommended for TV display sizes from 50" to 60". Cabinet dimensions are 5-11/16" high, 43-11/16" wide, and 3-1/2" deep, and the weight is 16 lbs., 12 oz.

    Optional Wall Bracket

    The optional Soundbar Series Wall Bracket (sold separately) is a sturdy wall-mounting bracket designed exclusively for the SB-2 and SB-3 soundbars. It offers easy cable access and template installation.
