TCL has expanded its audio product lineup through high-end partnerships and the release of Dolby Atmos compatible models.

In September 2026, TCL launched a series of soundbars tuned by Bang & Olufsen under the ‘Audio by Bang & Olufsen’ licensing program. This premium series includes the flagship Q95K, an 11.1.4 channel system with 22 independent Hi-Fi speakers, as well as the Q85K and Q75K models. These devices feature advanced connectivity such as HDMI eARC and WiFi 6.

Following this, TCL released the S55HE and S45HE soundbar models. The S55HE, which includes a wireless subwoofer, utilizes Dolby Atmos and DTS Virtual:X to simulate a 5.1.4 surround sound environment. The S45HE provides 100 W of power and supports various formats including Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Digital Plus.
