A:AnswerI'm sorry that I don't really have an answer for you, but I really want to correct the weird false information from the previous person's answer...
I do not know if it supports HDR Passthrough. I'm assuming you know a decent bit about Audio Video stuff, otherwise you wouldn't be asking about HDR Passthrough Support, and thus obviously know that yes, it does matter.
For anyone else reading the answers:
Passthrough Support DOES MATTER. The Sound Bar DOES CARE what signals you are passing through it. If the Sound Bar does not support HDR Passthrough, then your player device (bluray, chromecast, etc) will not even TRY to play the HDR content. It'll just play the default 720p, 1080p, or 4k content. The audio equipment, be it a receiver, or a sound bar, need to be capable of determining what sort of content is being played, so that it can be HDCP compliant. If it is not compliant, guess what? You get ZERO VIDEO to your TV.
"Passthrough" is not just something like simply allowing the raw data to pass directly through.. it has to make a 'handshake' with every component in the chain to maintain encryption for HDCP. And part of that process is identifying the capabilities of each component in that chain...
A:AnswerRather than measuring in wattage which is just a measurement of power draw, we measure soundbars in sound pressure level, or dB. This soundbar goes as loud as 103dB with a frequency response of 45Hz - 20kHz.
