If you can fit the Ambeo Max into your budget, you won't be disappointed. The best quality sound available from a soundbar.

The best all-in-one soundbar, irrespective of the cost? And the Bose is the choice?! 😀 Look up the KEF Xio. Then look up the Devialet Dione. Then look up the Sennheiser Ambeo Max. And lastly, look up the B&O Beosound Stage.

For context, this is what my friend sees with the Ambeo Plus. Why does he see 12 channels and I see 10 even though I supposedly have the better soundbar?

The largest, and highest quality, drivers in a soundbar are in the Sennheiser Ambeo Max. Best sound from a soundbar.

You should try the JBL for yourself - you might find the dialogue to be fine. Part of our problem may be the acoustics of our particular room and/or our hearing. My wife was fine with the detachable rears, which are a really nice feature. I guess the other soundbar that's out there (if I have to giv

So far I’ve heard the Q990F & D, JBL 1300X MK2, Klipsch Flexus Core 300 full setup, and recently a Senn Ambeo Max. The Klipsch and Ambeo bars by themselves are the most full sounding, the Ambeo having the edge here. The overall surround suffers on the Ambeo since it doesn’t have capability as of yet

My Sennheiser Ambeo Max is an absolute colossus of a soundbar and even without a sub it works some real magic on your ears

You don't have to go to your laptop to do this, with a smartphone, you can just go to Safari (on iPhone) or Chrome (on Android) or in fact any browser to be honest, and type in http:/ambeo, and if that doesn't work type in the IP address if you know it. But from what I see the issue is greyed out So

Nice - at last some quality soundbars that someone is considering! Both are power houses in their own respect. Both produces high fidelity, rich, and clear sound. Both brands are known audiophile grade. If you're looking for raw power, the Ambeo Max wins. The bass on that beast is something. You mig
