SENNHEISER AMBEO SOUNDBAR MINI IS A NEW FUN SIZE BAR FOR COMPACT SPACES
The German audio brand’s AMBEO Soundbar experience is now available in a new ‘fun size’: the Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar Mini.
A FUN SIZE BAR
At less than half the cubic volume of its Soundbar Plus sibling, the Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar Mini has been designed to appeal to audio lovers looking to upgrade a current living room, desktop, bedroom, or even games room setup. At just 70 x 10 x 6.5 cm in size, it blends into nearly any TV or monitor arrangement.

250 WATTS CLASS D AMPLIFICATION
There are 250 watts of class D amplification powering four full-range drivers and dual four-inch subwoofers.

Other useful audio modes personalise the listening experience, including content-specific presets, a voice enhancement option, and neighbour-friendly night mode. Ease of use is at the heart of the Mini, with an HDMI1 input that accommodates a wide range of eARC-enabled TVs or monitors. Integration with the Sennheiser Smart Control App makes management of features and updates from a smartphone simple.

FRAUNHOFER INSTITUTE
Like its larger siblings, the Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar Mini’s 3D sound is the result of a collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS2, a world leader in audio research and development. The Mini has four integrated microphones that serve a dual purpose: they function as the central component of the AMBEO room calibration, and facilitate Alexa3 voice assistant commands as the Soundbar features Alexa Built-In. Consumers also have the option to utilise existing Google Assistant4 or Siri-enabled devices to cast audio to the Mini through Chromecast Built-In and AirPlay5, respectively.

SENNHEISER AMBEO SOUNDBAR MINI ONE TOUCH CALIBRATION
As with all AMBEO Soundbars, the native AMBEO|OS operating system allows for one-touch calibration that scans the room, adjusting the surround virtualisation to account for various room sizes, reflections, and textures. Further, the Mini supports popular Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, MPEG-H codecs, and 360 Reality Audio6 formats and experiences for enjoying native spatial audio content.

DIGITAL MUSIC STREAMING
Wide-ranging support of digital music services also makes the Mini a streaming companion over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth with room-filling sound and bass down to 43 Hz, from streaming services such as a Spotify, TIDAL, Amazon Music, and Apple Music. AMBEO|OS integrates the Mini into popular content ecosystems as a Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and AirPlay 2 device. Bass lovers can add even more low-end with wireless connection to as many four Sennheiser AMBEO Subs which are sold separately.
