Sennheiser Ambeo Plus

I bought this soundbar together with the matching subwoofer and the combination is fantastic. The soundbar itself already delivers an excellent sound and brilliant clarity of vocals. The connectivity is excellent, including RCA for older subs and for audio in.

First time purchasing a soundbar and was a little confused as to which way to jump. Received sound advice (see what I did there :) from the guys at the Deansgate, Manchester branch. Delighted with both service and product.

After seeing the rave reviews of this soundbar, I decided to take the plunge. Here's my feedback after 2 years of use: 1st point, the sound bar doesn't always switch on, so you have to unplug it and plug it back in or switch to the TV speakers. The same goes for Bluetooth connections, sometimes it works and sometimes you're less lucky. When you're watching a film, the screams and noises (car, skidding, explosion, music, etc.) take over from the voices - there is the voice optimiser, but it's useless, the voices aren't any clearer, they're muffled by the various noises. The night mode is a complete joke. bass reduction 0 voice reduction 100%. The Ambéo mode ... Incredible" yes.... on the extracts proposed on the Ambéo application. During a film, I dare you to experience the "3D sound", which is neither impressive nor present. And finally, the remote control, which simply doesn't work any more after only 1 year of use.

I brought this soundbar a few weeks ago to replace a old Yamaha soundbar. The difference is like night and day. The sound is great and it's easy to set up. The only small down side I have found is that I can't pair it with my Sky Q control.

Remarkable scale and power from a relatively modestly sized soundbar, and a very convincing impression of spatial audio too. Sennheiser knows precisely what it’s doing with this technology, to the point that it seems perfectly reasonable for the company to slap a premium price on this product.
