Want movie-theater-style sound without filling your living room with a giant surround-sound setup? The Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar Plus with the matching subwoofer is now down from $2,649 to $1,500 at Crutchfield, cutting over $1,100 off this premium immersive audio package.
Sennheiser designed the AMBEO Plus to deliver large-scale 3D surround sound. It uses advanced virtualization technology, upward-firing speakers, room calibration, and powerful bass to provide its fully immersive audio. And the best part is, you don’t need a separate A/V receiver or a full set of rear speakers around the room to enjoy premium sound.
Why Choose This Sennheiser Soundbar
The AMBEO Plus features nine built-in drivers that fire forward, upward, and sideways, creating a wider, taller soundstage that can simulate surround and overhead effects. Movies, sports, and games benefit heavily from this setup, as they feel more immersive.
Dolby Atmos content especially feels more expansive, with sounds appearing to move around and above you rather than simply coming straight from the TV. Plus, the dedicated center channel and audio processing help make voices easier to hear during action scenes or quieter conversations.
Sennheiser’s AMBEO virtualization technology is another huge part of the experience. The system automatically calibrates itself to your room’s acoustics using built-in microphones and software processing. Once the calibration is done, you get optimized sound that bounces around the space for a more convincing 3D audio effect.
The included AMBEO subwoofer significantly elevates the experience with its 8-inch driver and 350-watt amplifier. It adds deeper bass and stronger low-end impact for explosions, music, and cinematic moments.
You can also stream easily with this soundbar, as it supports Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify Connect, and TIDAL Connect. This makes it easy to stream music directly from phones, tablets, or smart devices without additional hardware. Plus, Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant are built into the soundbar, adding extra smart-home flexibility for users already invested in those ecosystems.
At $1,500, this is still firmly a premium home theater purchase. But compared to building a traditional surround-sound setup with separate speakers, a receiver, and a subwoofer, the AMBEO Plus offers a cleaner, far simpler approach while still aiming for a very high-end cinematic experience.
