    where is the Samsung Q990B? And the Sonos? This is not a real list of the best… Is it just a promoted video from these brands? Or what?

    roku bar is a gimmick. i would recommend the TV speakers over the Roku bar. Sonos is a popular settle for soundbar. the vizio at least has a dedicated sub woofer. not having a dedicated sub woofer either means you dont care about the foundation of sound or means someone watched this video for gift ideas for soundbars. Bose, Sony, LG are the top 3 brands. Sonos is top 5 with Polk and Vizio flexing between spot #5. most samsung bars suck cause they have a hollow sound, so at least thank you for not including them on this list.

The idea that depression comes from a chemical imbalance in the brain has shaped treatment for decades.
