Horiza Has climbed quickly when it comes to television and laser TVs (VAT projectors) and cut out a serious market piece with aggressive prices and surprisingly solid performance. But when it comes to Soundbars? Let’s just say that the audio side of the house did not keep up exactly – more filler than thriller and definitely nothing that rattled by the cages of Sonos, Samsung or the audiophile crowd.
Give the HT Saturn. This time HiSense decided to take a different way – by calling the French. Devialet to be precise. Now Devialet is not a name that will recognize an average costco shopper, but anyone who has ever sunk 3,000 US dollars for a wireless speaker or reorganizes the brand from a phantom. Hisense, who has come together with Devialet, is like an invitation of a Michelin chef to edit the fryer: it raises the eyebrows and maybe – maybe – maybe – the game.
HT Saturn: A wireless audio ecosystem, not just another soundbar
The HT -Saturn coordinated by Devialet breaks off the usual form “Long Black Bar Under Your TV”. Instead, it has become a modular this this is a full, 4,1,2-channel-wireless system that has built up around a compact central hub. This stroke acts as a command center: dealing with HDMI and digital inputs, decoding of audio formats, administration of source switches and wirelessly distribute signal to the four satellite speakers and subwoofers.
It’s not just about canceling cables. The system architecture offers more space for each speaker to the breathing-booked and acoustically for a better placement, separation and a spatial shipping. The wireless protocol is low latency and high bandwidth, so that they are synchronized without spaghetti through wires or the latency problems, which are plagued by most “wireless” setups.
Coordinated by Devialet: Oui, it is actually chic
Hisense not only hit a logo on this thing – they brought the Sonic surgeons from Paris. Devialet, the French high-end audio brand, which is known for its obsessive F&E in exotic drivers and the ultra-low-low distortance, voted the HT Saturn so that it sounds more than just loud. Your fingerprints are everywhere in digital signal processing, the driver and the wireless reproduction of systems of the system.
This is not a diluted sticker. Devialet’s expertise in the wireless transmission and proprietary audio technology normally reserved for speakers who cost more than their television, helps HT Saturn achieve clarity, scaling and finesse that would surprise everyone who expects a typical soundbar-a-box driving price.
Hi-Confirmed
In addition to the coordination of Devialet, the HT -Saturn system contains Hisens Hi-Concerto Technology. This enables him to work with the built-in speakers in selected Hisense TVs so that all speakers can work together in order to achieve a more contiguous and urgent sound experience. It is a concept that resembles the Q-Symphony from Samsung and offers users an integrated audio setup without deactivating your television’s own spokesman.
Room fit
For installation and setting up, the HT Saturn Hisense contains Room fitA simple room correction. It analyzes the size and acoustics of the room and then uses adjustments to reduce frequently occurring problems such as echoes and reflections. Although it is not as progressive as some premium systems, it helps in most environments to achieve a cleaner and more balanced sound.
Advanced 3-way loudspeaker array for Dolby Atmos and DTS: X immersion
The HT Saturn has a 13-speaker setup arranged in a 4.1.2 channel layout to support Dolby Atmos and DTS: X formats. Each satellite speaker uses a 3-way design with a woofer at the front, a center driver that is angled up a bit and a tweeter is still angled upwards. This arrangement helps to sound both forward and upwards and to enable more precise spatial effects and a more urgent audio environment.
WLAN audio transmission with multi-band Wi-Fi stability
The HT Saturn transfers Audio wirelessly from the central unit with Wi-Fi to the satellite speakers and subwoofers. In order to maintain a stable connection, it works via three frequency bands: 2.4, 5.2 and 5.8 GHz.
Tip: While the audio signal is wireless, each speaker and subwoofer still needs a connection to an alternating current outlet to carry out its built -in amplifiers.

The end result
The collaboration of Hisens with Devialet signals a clear ambition to increase your audio profile and seriously compete in the high-end sound system arena. While Hisen’s former soundbar efforts largely flew under the radar, HT Saturn is another animal -and watch the traditional soundbar design for a more versatile setup with four wireless speakers and a central control unit. This approach clearly contains a page from the Bravia Theater Quad system from Sony, but almost half of the price. Although not as elegant as Sony, the price gap alone makes the new offer from Hisens impossible to ignore. If you are on the market for a better TV sound and a wireless multi-spokesman setup, the audition of the HT-Saturn seems to be a clever step. Thanks to the tuning and the latest Devialet technology, HiSense could challenge a place on her shortlist.
