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

Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar Review: Killer atmos sound from a single bar
Expert review by : Tim Gideon (pcmag.com)
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 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...

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...

Soundbar, smoundbar, I thought when the Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar turned up. Just another one of those. But I was soon to receive several surprises when I
Excellent sound quality;Astonishing bass;Very high volume levels;Convincing surround performance
Very expensive

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...
