Coby and Sonic Emotion to Unveil 3D Sound Bar at CES

Coby Electronics and Sonic Emotion are teaming up to unveil a new Coby sound bar at CES in a few weeks. The sound bar claims to be the first to recreate a real 3D sound environment. The 3D sound tech provides the illusion that the sound is coming from everywhere.

“It’s the first sound bar on the market that plays 3D sound from simple stereo input,” said Andy Macaluso, sonic emotion Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Most of the audio we consume is stereo: It doesn’t matter if you’re listening to your iPod, watching Desperate Housewives or football, with the new Coby sound bar audio comes to life around you in 3D and you don’t hear the device,” he said.

I would like to see how well this thing actually works in person. With it being Coby branded it should be affordable, the company rarely makes expensive gear. This may be a good alternative to surround sound systems.
