Global Sound Bar Market Size and Share Outlook - Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis Report (2025-2034)

Key Trends in the Sound Bar Market

Sound bar is a rectangular shaped speaker system that transmits sound from an electronic device such as television or computer via several built-in small speakers. It is capable of projecting sound from a wide enclosure and is often used for providing an immersive audio experience to the listener.

• Rising demand for wireless streaming of audio and sounds owing to its convenience, flexibility, and easy installation, is fuelling the demand for sound bars. Various sound bars offer Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, enhancing the experience of the user.

• The market players are increasingly focussing on integrating voice assistants, such as Alexa and Google Assistant,  along with other functionalities such as artificial intelligence to make media bars more user-friendly, thereby boosting the sound bar market growth.

• Rapid digitalisation and rising penetration of subscription-based streaming platforms such as Netflix and Amazon Prime, among others have extensively contributed towards the demand for sound bar systems to create an immersive cinema experience at home.

Sound Bar Market Segmentation

Sound Bar Market Share by Installation Method

Active sound bars are expected to witness a fast growth during the forecast period as they are considered to be more advantageous in comparison to passive sound bars. Active sound bars are cost-effective, as they come with built-in amplifiers and surround sound capabilities compared to passive soundbars that require outside amplifiers or receivers to operate correctly due to the absence of built-in amplifier. This makes active sound bars extremely convenient from a setup perspective.

Difficulty in setting full sound system with multiple speakers in certain homes thus favours the demand for active sound bars to create a digital surround sound effect with a single piece of equipment, aiding the sound bar market expansion. However, passive soundbars have higher quality, which makes them more expensive despite their fewer components.
