Sennheiser Launches Ambeo Soundbar Mini

At under half the cubic volume of the Ambeo Plus, the Ambeo Mini is perfect for smaller rooms and applications thanks to its 70x10x6.5cm dimensions. At that size, it’ll fit nicely on any TV console, bedroom dresser and even under a computer monitor. 

Maximilian Voigt, Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar Product Manager, told StereoNET:

The magic of Sennheiser Ambeo technology immerses consumers in stunning 3D sound from a simple, single source in practically any home entertainment space. Our most compact soundbar yet comes at the perfect time with both features and dimensions that are a joy to live with, in or out of the living room.

Four full-range drivers are paired with dual four-inch subwoofers and powered by a total of 250 watts of Class D amplification, with the company claiming consumers can expect “sharp fidelity, impactful bass and crystal-clear presence”.

The Ambeo Mini retains the four microphones built-in that functions for both the one-touch auto-calibration system and the ability to allow for Amazon Alexa commands. Google Assistant and Siri-enabled devices are also able to cast audio to the soundbar via Chromecast Built-in and AirPlay, respectively. 

While there aren’t up-firing drivers, the Ambeo Mini does offer 7.1.4 virtual surround sound alongside support for Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and 360 Reality Audio. Other useful features include a voice enhancement option and a Night mode to avoid disturbing your neighbours (or those in different rooms). Integration with the Sennheiser Smart Control App makes it easy to control, although we do hope Sennheiser has fixed the issue with the app crashing that we noticed in our review of the Ambeo Plus!

If you’re worried about the low-end performance, the Ambeo Mini can be connected to as many as four Ambeo Subs, which does seem a bit overkill, but we’re not judging. 

The Sennheiser Ambeo Mini will be available to order from 1 September onwards and will sell for £699/ €799 RRP.
