Can't hear TV dialogue? This portable soundbar solved my audio problems for cheap


If you're looking for great sound without breaking the bank, Creative offers a compact, budget-friendly option worth checking out.

Selling for $170 on Amazon, the Stage Pro is a midrange soundbar that does one particular thing very well: ensure you can hear every word of dialogue spoken, an issue that frustrates some to the point of watching with subtitles on. Thankfully, there are plenty of low- to midrange soundbars to choose from, and although the Stage Pro lives in the upper low-end spectrum of devices, it sounds much better than its price would imply. If you're in the market for a soundbar that produces sonic booms on the low end, crisp highs, and a massively wide soundstage, the Stage Pro isn't for you.
