Customer Ratings & Reviews

I want to do this a little differently and start with the TLDR version. Here are some quick pros and cons of the Sennheiser Ambeo Mini Soundbar: Pros: eARC, Excellent sound quality, Small and compact design, Easy to set up and use, Creates a surround sound experience, no account needed for app. Cons: Low bass, no HDMI out which affected me greatly, No Optical in which also affected me greatly, I don’t know how to turn it off… so it makes randon popping noises. Here’s my experience: I've been using the Sennheiser Ambeo Mini Soundbar as my main soundbar in my ‘man cave’ and I'm really impressed with it. It's a great all-in-one soundbar that delivers excellent sound quality for its size. The Ambeo Mini is small and compact, making it easy to place on a TV stand or shelf. It has a sleek, minimalist design that will complement any décor. The soundbar is also very easy to set up and use. The sound quality of the Ambeo Mini is really impressive. It produces a really clear sound with good mids and highs, but it’s very bad when it comes to bass. I think that’s the reason why there’s an optional subwoofer because by itself, it lacks in that department. Don’t get me wrong, it’s SIGNIFICANTLY better than your Laptop Pro, mobile phone, or TV speaker. I’d even go as far as to say it’s better than any portable ‘party’ speaker too. The soundbar also does a great job of creating a surround sound experience, after you get it setup from the app. The app was super easy to use, and didn't even require an account! Just installed, paired, then firmware updated, and I was off to the races! This is how it SHOULD BE for all companies! I applaud Sennheiser for that! But if you have an account you can connect it to it if you want. I've used the Ambeo Mini to watch movies, TV shows, play video games and listen to music, and it has delivered great sound in all those scenarios with optional sound profiles to match. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a high-quality soundbar that doesn't take up a lot of space. I wish it had better bass though. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows though! It annoyed me with its random popping noises when I wasn’t watching anything and all my devices were off. It was like it was picking up interference from my router or phone in random intervals. Like it’ll pop every 30 seconds, the other times once in a couple hours. The pops are quiet but I feel like if I knew how to just put it in standby it wouldn’t be an issue. But the BIGGEST issue I had was an issue with my setup. My TV only has one eARC port and it’s on one of the two HDMI 2.1 ports. So I had to move my Xbox into an HDMI 2.0 port! This isn’t Sennheiser’s fault per se, but because there’s no optical input, no HDMI 2.1 passthrough, it basically caused me to choose if I really wanted this Ambeo in my mancave or not. I seriously considered moving it to my living room where it’ll do fine and I won’t have to sacrifice a port. Ultimately I decided I’ll just get a new TV with 4 HDMI 2.1 ports instead since I like the darn thing too much. Overall, the Sennheiser Ambeo Mini Soundbar is a great choice for anyone looking for a high-quality soundbar that doesn't take up a lot of space. It delivers excellent sound quality and creates a surround sound experience that will make you feel like you're right in the middle of the action. If you can get the sub which I have on order, it’ll transform your listening experience to something that’ll make your friends jealous!
