The editors didn't like
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
Wildly expensive
Big and heavy
We'd still like to add a subwoofer
The Sennhiser Ambeo is one of the most expensive sound bars on the market
And it doesn't have a subwoofer. Spending more on a sub will open the sound up dynamically. Music can be a little harsh sounding. It's huge
Price
Audio sync is slightly off in some setups
Thrives in conditions that not every house will have

Superb sonic presentation, EARC support, Comprehensive set of features, Sophisticated room calibration, Remarkable build quality, Dolby Atmos / DTS:X / MPEG-H
Never fully immersive, Seriously big, Very expensive
There's no denying the Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar is a seriously impressive bit of kit. You won't find a better made or more feature-packed soundbar on the market, and it's suitably future-proofed thanks to support for Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, HDR10+ and Dolby...
Immersive audio limited, It's really big, And it's really expensive
The Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar is an exceptional single-box solution that delivers a big, bold, and detailed immersive audio experience, despite the absence of actual rear speakers. It is capable of amazingly deep bass, despite the lack of a separate subwo...

Superb 3D audio performance, As good with music as it is movies
Eye-wateringly expensive, Big and not exactly pretty
Verdict Add proprietary Sennheiser Ambeo audio processing to Dolby Atmos and you get what is arguably the best-sounding soundbar on the planet. Superb cinematic audio from a single-box solution – and it's wonderfully musical too. Pros Superb 3D audio perf...

Beefy size (and no IR repeater) requires mounting

Utterly convincing Dolby Atmos and DTS:X 3D sound, Ample power, Lots of inputs
Really big, Very expensive
No other soundbar currently available can do what the Ambeo can. Not with the solidity and confidence of the Sennheiser. That's why, as well as being the biggest and the most expensive, it's the best you can buy. Stuff says. Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar...
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 could b...

Rich, natural sound, Dynamic and detailed, Convincing surround effect, Great features,
Large, Expensive, Fussy with positioning,
We're not ones for pre-judging products, but we have to admit that we didn't expect the Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar to be nearly as good as it is. Surely it couldn't be worth the high price and comparative hassle. But it really is.It's expensive for a sound...
Ambeo 3D could be one of the most exciting soundbar technologies we've heard. It genuinely creates a sense of immersion, a classic attribute of Dolby Atmos, from a single box.We can't say if the soundbar is inherently musical, or has the requisite viscera...
