Opolk audio audio bar connections1/10/2024 Underneath the Command Bar is a recessed jack pack with an HDMI output jack to connect the bar to your TV and two HDMI input jacks, one for your cable/satellite box and a second one in a separate cavity to accommodate an Amazon Fire TV stick or a Blu-ray/DVD player, along with a USB jack that can be used to power the Fire TV Stick or add in a hard drive holding video or photos. The Command Bar is a sleek strip that tapers toward its ends, with the top of the Amazon Dot rising just above flush on its flat center. Plus, the Echo Dot operates as a smart Wi-Fi/Bluetooth speaker with access to Amazon's streaming music sources or music on your smartphone via voice command. The Command Bar includes a couple of pain point-solving features, such as separate level controls for bass and especially "voice" volume, particularly helpful for baby boomers who want to hear more dialog than sound effects, and content-specific sound modes for listening to movies, sports or music. Knowing it was going to have smart soundbar competition, Polk wasn't content to simply imbed an Echo Dot into its variation. And, given this year's flood of smart speakers and Amazon's eagerness to spread its Alexa gospel, we're likely to see a lot more smart soundbars in the months to come. This smart soundbar is such a smart idea that Sonos has produced the similar (and far pricier) Beam ($399). Why buy two boxes when one will do? That's the perfectly clever and logical solution the Polk Command Bar ($299.99) presents – it's a soundbar plus wireless subwoofer with an Amazon Echo Dot built right inside.
