Powered by 13 drivers, the AMBEO Soundbar MAX delivers a virtual 5.1.4-channel sound experience with bass as low as 30 Hz without a subwoofer. With onboard room calibration technology, it can adapt the audio output to the acoustic specifications of your room to enhance the 3D effect. Low bass is produced by the six long-throw woofers, and five dedicated tweeters help precisely recreate midrange vocals.
The AMBEO Soundbar MAX is engineered to produce realistic highs and lows, dimension, and nuanced detail, and its built-in equalizer and three 3D modes let you adjust the output to your own individual taste.
By capturing the characteristics of your room and its reflective surfaces, the AMBEO Soundbar MAX uses virtualization technology developed with Fraunhofer to merge with the acoustics of your environment to create a 3D sound experience. The 13 independent drivers and AMBEO technology work as virtual speakers, creating a surround sound effect and placing you in the center of the action.
The brushed aluminum exterior and minimalist detailing are designed to meet the needs of those seeking design and performance in one soundbar.
Along with compatibility for Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and MPEG-H, the soundbar's Upmix Technology can turn stereo or 5.1-channel audio into a 3D sound experience. And to ensure easy connectivity, it supports HDMI eARC, Dolby Vision and 4K UHD pass-through, Bluetooth, and Chromecast built-in.

Q: 3. if i'm using this soundbar with a Samsung TV via HDMI ARC connection, can i use the TV remote to control the volume?
A: It should work. But, HDMI control across brands are hit or miss.
Q: 4. safe to assume this comes with the audio cables required for hookup? BH just popped up a cable as a recommended accessory...
A: Yes, the needed cables are attached for computer connection, I just plugged and play. Sounds great and no more problem of two separate speakers on my desk.
Q: 5. Does this work with a Mac mini. Has anyone tried it?
A: I have not tried it with a Mac Mini, however, it works on the same principal as normal speakers using the aux or speaker port for sound. You do need USB for power. The speaker sounds great and works very well.
Q: 6. Can this unit be used as an external microphone? I see this has microphone jack. So just wondering if it just pass thru or the unit itself has a built in microphone.
A: You would need to plug in an additional microphone . The second 3.5 works as an input for audio.
Q: 7. Does it work with only usb ? Computer does not have 3.5 speaker jack.
A: The USB is for power only. The SonaVERSE UBR is powered via USB and uses a separate 3.5mm audio cable to connect to your computer's audio jack.
Q: 8. Two-part question: the photos show this sound bar without any wires for connection to the tv or power. (I know there's a possibility to stream bluetooth from your phone, but I'm assuming the tv needs a wired connection.) Also, the back of the speaker has an "HDMI out" but only an "optical" TV in. Am I assuming correctly that you can connect to the TV with an ordinary HDMI cable, and that it's self-powered and plugs into an outlet? Thanks for any help for this sound bar newbie and sorry for the ridiculous questions!
A: This unit does require power- see specs below for connectivity options. Connectivity Inputs 1 x Optical TOSLINK USB Ports 1 x USB (Version Unspecified AC Input Power 120 VAC, 60 Hz Key Features 2-Channel Configuration Up to 120W of Total Power Bluetooth Audio Streaming S-Force Surround Sound Technology 1 x Optical-In / 1 x USB-In HDMI ARC Audio Includes Optical Cable
Q: 9. Will this provide satisfactory sound on a small 3 side screened porch 13’w x 13’D attached to SonyKDL- 40XBR6?
A: This soundbar should sound fine in your room. It'll definitely sound better than then TV.
Q: 10. Will this sound bar mute my vizeo TV speakers?
A: The sound bar wouldn't mute the TV speakers automatically. You would have to turn the volume down or turn the speakers off in the TV menu.
