The most compact of Sennheiser's AMBEO virtualized-Atmos soundbars, designed around a deliberately minimal one-cable hookup. The only AV connection is a single HDMI eARC port to the TV — there is no HDMI passthrough input, no optical input and no Ethernet jack, so every source must route through the TV first. A rear USB-A port supplies 5V/1A for powering accessories and service use. Wireless duties fall to Wi-Fi with AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify and Tidal Connect plus Bluetooth.
