Ahead of CES 2025, Hisense has unveiled an exciting teaser, showcasing its new HT Saturn model. This home theater system appears to draw inspiration from Sony’s successful designs. Featuring a 4.1.2 Dolby Atmos setup, the HT Saturn is a “wireless home theater system” that includes four satellite speakers and a subwoofer. It utilizes a compact HDMI ARC/eARC breakout box for transmitting audio, mirroring a configuration similar to Sony’s Bravia Theater Quad.
As of now, Hisense has not disclosed pricing or availability details for the HT Saturn.
This Dolby Atmos soundbar alternative comes equipped with two features tailored to enhance the experience for owners of compatible Hisense TVs. One is an automatic room calibration system that provides flexibility in speaker placement. The other, echoing the S-center channel technology of the Bravia Theater Quad, is Hisense’s Hi-Concerto feature, which allows audio duties to be shared between the TV speakers and the wireless speakers.
While the system’s features are designed for use with select Hisense TVs, an official list of compatible models has yet to be provided.

The system is versatile enough to work with any television that includes an HDMI ARC/eARC or optical output, and it also supports Bluetooth connectivity. Like previous offerings from Hisense, the HT Saturn can be controlled and managed via a Hisense TV remote, which creates a more seamless integration for Hisense TV users.
The HT Saturn boasts compatibility with DTS:X and incorporates a total of 13 speakers. However, details regarding the specific types and sizes of drivers, apart from the prominent 6.5-inch subwoofer, remain vague. It offers tuning options through five EQ presets, catering to various auditory preferences like movies, music, and sports.
Hisense has yet to clarify whether the transmitter box includes an HDMI input to compensate for the TV port that the system will occupy.
Attendees can look forward to experiencing the HT Saturn firsthand at CES 2025, where Hisense is also anticipated to showcase its latest television models, laser TVs, and other advancements in audio and visual technology.
