TCL has introduced the Q95K soundbar in China, an 11.1.4-channel audio system delivering a peak output of 1,420W.
The setup includes a main soundbar, a wireless subwoofer, and two wireless rear speakers.
The system houses 22 speaker drivers across 16 physical channels.
The main unit handles front, center, side surround, wide surround, and front height channels, while the rear speakers add rear surround and rear height channels for spatial audio formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.
Audio tuning was done in collaboration with Bang & Olufsen, and the soundbar features B&O's Beosonic interface for adjusting sound profiles via a mobile app.
Inside, a MediaTek MT8532 processor and 12 separate amplifier chips reduce channel interference. The frequency response ranges from 30Hz to 20kHz, with aluminum diaphragms and neodymium magnets.
The wireless subwoofer uses two 7-inch opposing drivers to minimize cabinet vibration during heavy bass.
Connectivity includes three HDMI 2.1 ports with 48Gbps bandwidth, supporting 4K passthrough at 144Hz, VRR, ALLM, and eARC.
It also supports Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, Spotify, and Apple AirPlay 2.
A feature called T-Chord syncs audio with compatible TCL TV speakers.
The soundbar includes room calibration via the TCL app and dual-mode optimization that adjusts sound based on whether the 6.87cm-thick bar is wall-mounted or table-placed.
TCL also announced two other models: the Q85K (7.1.2-channel, 1,180W) and the Q75K (7.1.2-channel, 580W).
All three launched in China on July 27.
The Q95K is priced at 6,999 yuan ($1,034), the Q85K at 5,999 yuan ($886), and the Q75K at 4,699 yuan ($694).
