Summary: Zvox, inventor of the soundbase category, introduced significant revisions with its new premium Platinum series, which offers notable upgrades in sonics, features, and aesthetics. We tested the Soundbase.670, which is suitable for screens up to 70-inches, but you’ll get similar sound character from the Soundbase.570 ($400, for sets up to 60 inches) and Soundbase.770 ($700, for sets up to 80 inches). All are great sounding, easy-to-use, subwooferless systems from the outfit that started it all.

Plus: Detailed, focused sound with tuneful bass • Excellent connectivity and feature set • Nice display
Minus: Can’t disable surround mode • Credit card remote
