Bookshelf Speakers vs. Soundbars: Which One Suits Your Home Audio Style?

Upgrading your home entertainment system? One of the most important decisions you'll make is choosing the right speaker setup. Whether you're streaming your favourite music, watching blockbusters, or gaming late into the night, great audio makes all the difference.

Two popular options for home audio are bookshelf speakers and soundbars. But which one is the better fit for your lifestyle and space?

In this post, we compare two standout options from Peak Audio & Visual — the Monster MT-607 Bookshelf Speaker and the BlueAnt XT100 ATMOS Bluetooth Soundbar — to help you decide.

Meet the Monster MT-607: Bookshelf Speaker Power in a Compact Size

If you’re serious about sound quality, the Monster MT-607 Bookshelf Speaker is hard to beat. Designed with audio enthusiasts in mind, this compact yet powerful speaker delivers a crisp 100W output, producing deep lows and sparkling highs that bring your content to life.

Why Choose the Monster MT-607 Bookshelf Speaker?

  • Superior stereo separation for immersive listening

  • Rich, dynamic sound perfect for music, movies, and gaming

  • Compact and versatile, fitting easily into bookshelves or on stands

  • Great for audiophiles who want high fidelity without bulky gear

Bookshelf speakers like the MT-607 are perfect for those who appreciate detailed, room-filling sound and want a more traditional stereo setup — especially for music listening or a high-quality external TV sound system.

Enter the BlueAnt XT100: A Sleek Soundbar with Dolby ATMOS

If you’re looking for something sleek, modern, and easy to set up, the BlueAnt XT100 ATMOS Bluetooth Soundbar checks all the boxes. It’s designed to enhance your TV's audio with cinematic surround sound thanks to Dolby ATMOS technology — all without the clutter of multiple speakers.

Both options offer excellent sound, but your ideal setup depends on how you plan to use your system:

  • Choose the Monster MT-607 Bookshelf Speaker if you're a music enthusiast, value stereo separation, and want premium sound quality for everything from vinyl to streaming.
