After Orbitsound's much larger T12, the smaller T9 doesn't look as though it will pack much punch. But appearances, as we've found and are so often told, are deceptive... It might not look all too exciting from the outside, but it'll titillate your ears in all the right ways. Good show.

The tiny soundbar and its sub will devour music and home cinema content with equal glee and fill out even the largest of rooms.

If you want a cheap and easy upgrade for games and movies, you’ll be impressed and have a system that has the necessary grunt for a full-on house party too. As long as you can place the subwoofer discretely near a wall...you’ll have a great budget home cinema set-up.

Incredibly, shrinking the overall size of both units has done little to detract from the its sound - and at £199, it's not only a ton cheaper than its bigger brother, but also offers a top-mounted iPhone and iPod dock as well.

The T9 is more than capable of filling the largest of living rooms with high-quality audio that you simply wouldn't expect from something so small. With the ability to produce high-quality audio from every input source, it's a clear ... winner.
