Sennheiser Ambeo soundbar review: Killer Atmos sound

 

We expected amazing things from Sennheiser's first soundbar, and with incredible detail, brilliant musicality, and mind-bending Dolby Atmos virtualization, it absolutely delivers. Packing glorious detail and realistic virtual surround, Sennheiser's...

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar Review: Killer atmos sound from a single bar

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar

 

The Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar is an excellent speaker for anything you want to listen to and creates an impressively wide sound field, though for $2,500 it can benefit from a dedicated subwoofer.

Powerful audio with rich bass depth, crisp highs, and listening modes tailored to music, film, and TV. Ambeo modes widen stereo field and create immersive listening experience.

Wildly expensive. Big and heavy. We'd still like to add a subwoofer.

The Ambeo Soundbar delivers a magnificent listening experience, and Sennheiser went deep on controls, combining sound modes with customizable EQ, and an overlaying of Ambeo 3D modes. But it's hard to get past the price. Even if it included a subwoofer,...

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar review: High-end sound for a high-end price

 

Sennheiser expects to fetch top dollar for this sophisticated soundbar, but it fully doesn't deliver the immersive audio experience it promises

Superb overall sound quality ; Expansive soundstage in front of room ; Exceptional bass without a separate subwoofer ; Built like a tank

Didn't create a fully immersive soundfield in my room ; Supplied calibration mic failed, required replacement ; Input auto-switching doesn't work ; App disconnects from soundbar when phone falls asleep ; Super expensive

I placed the Ambeo Soundbar on a small table in front of my Sony 65A1E OLED TV; fortunately, the table is just low enough so the soundbar didn’t block any of the screen when I was seated in my normal chair. The room is almost entirely rectangular with...

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar

 

At $2499.95, the Ambeo is the most expensive soundbar on the planet. I asked Sennheiser what led them to believe there was an appetite for such a product. Their reply: “We have watched consumers moving from full-fledged home-cinema systems into more...

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar Review

 

Performance Features Ergonomics Value

The compactness and convenience that soundbars offer has always been appealing, but their actual sound has too often been a letdown. Many have failed to create an authentic sense of surround and most also require an external subwoofer to provide...

What Hi-Fi? Awards 2022 winner. Can Sennheiser's enormous Ambeo soundbar justify its huge price tag?

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar review

 

Sometimes biggest is just the best

Utterly convincing Dolby Atmos and DTS:X 3D sound ; Ample power ; Lots of inputs

Really big ; Very expensive

The Ambeo Soundbar is big, but the sound it makes is bigger still

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar review: Legendary sound

 

The Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar will put a dent in your bank balance but if you're after the best sounding soundbar, this is it

Best-in-class sound quality ; Spectacular DTS:X and Dolby Atmos performance ; Ambeo brings stereo content to life

Extremely expensive ; Inconveniently large ; Doesn’t include rear speakers nor a dedicated subwoofer

With or without a dedicated subwoofer, the Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar is the best sounding all-in-one system I’ve ever come across. It far surpasses the Samsung HW-N850, Q80R, HW-N950 and Q90R, which I’d previously rated as the best soundbars money...
