"Small frame, big sound Marshall's Heston 60 soundbar's size falls between that of the Samsung HW-QS700F and the Sonos Beam (Gen 2). It features a 5.1-channel configuration, comprising seven Class D amplifiers, five one-and-a-quarter-inch full-range speakers, and two three-inch woofers. The Heston 60's sound output is full and robust, and despite its more compact size compared to Marshall's Heston 120, the Heston 60 is well-suited for small to medium-sized rooms."
"In the soundbar world, Samsung's options are often at the front lines of innovation, performance, and value. This year, Samsung unveiled a soundbar equipped with an internal gyroscope, enabling you to adjust the soundbar's orientation to suit your room's specific needs without compromising sound quality.

Samsung implemented an internal gyroscope in a soundbar to enable orientation adjustments without sacrificing sound quality. Marshall responded by creating the Heston 60, applying orientation-consistent audio principles with a design-first approach. The Heston 60 measures between the Samsung HW-QS700F and the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) and uses a 5.1-channel layout with seven Class D amplifiers, five 1.25-inch full-range drivers, and two three-inch woofers. The unit produces full, robust sound optimized for small to medium rooms. The Heston 60 lacks dedicated height/upfiring channels, so its Dolby Atmos and DTS:X compatibility provides less immersive vertical effects than bars with height drivers.
