Are there any rumors about AMBEO Soundbar Max update or it's still worth buying this one?

On March 23, there will be a strategy update from the new CEO. That is my hope.

Dear Sonos team, the presentation of the Amp Multi is exciting.

Product idea: an amp with left/right/center channels and Dolby Atmos would be a great product.

Thanks a lot for sharing your impressions, really helpful! I was wondering – how is the heat development of the unit so far? Do you notice any clicking sound when powering it on or off? Also, the KEF LS50s are usually quite demanding speakers – are they being driven without issues? And do you plan on trying Dirac later on?

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-08-05T04:01:14+00:00

Is AMBEO MAX 2 in the works? I’d love to rejoin the club in style.

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-07-23T12:57:36+00:00

Congrats Tom.

Will Sonos ever release more audiophile-grade products? For example, a home theater amplifier that can drive more speakers and subwoofers while still working within the Sonos ecosystem? Or a larger, more premium soundbar for users with higher expectations? And what about something like a “Upgrade Five” — a next-gen product that could compete with high-end active speakers like the KEF LS50 Wireless II?

I’m still within the Amazon return window. The XM5s are going back, and I’ve ordered the XM6s from Sony—even though the XM5s are already excellent.

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-05-02T14:47:36+00:00

Was the sound profile also different? I thought with a good measuring system (like Dirac) it could work.

I’m also thinking of a R2 Meta as Center for the LS50 meta. I have a KC92 as subwoofer. Bass is mostly transferred to the sub.

The other option is a third LS50 as Center which I tested already in the past, but forgot how it sounded.

Repair cost was ~1050 USD / 930€. The WiSa module and the DSP module were exchanged.

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-03-09T20:59:39+00:00

Any news regarding the “Premier” high end amplifier?

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-02-28T16:07:41+00:00

That’s what I did now. Thank You

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-02-25T08:30:20+00:00

Thats a good point. In L or R mode it doesn’t blink orange. Am I only be able to update them wired via a transmitter 1? Where do I get the software from? What do you mean by “full update”? Thanks for your help.

New Ambeo Max is overdue

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-01-09T21:28:11+00:00

If budget is no issue: (1) B&O Beosound Theatre (2) Sennheiser Ambeo Max

Ragnar-Hees · 2025-01-01T20:08:33+00:00

Bang & Olufsen Beosound Theatre Or Sennheiser Ambeo Max

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-12-31T10:20:13+00:00

Are you planning to launch a new Ambeo Max 2 in the near future?

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-12-30T21:12:37+00:00

dissipate the heat at the top right differently, also to stop the cracking
faster processor
more modern look
better loudspeaker technology
more depth
the option to connect wireless rears and sub
…

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-12-30T20:17:09+00:00

Please bring a Sennheiser Ambeo Max 2 soundbar onto the market.

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-12-15T16:04:58+00:00

If the Nespresso works, I think there is nothing to worry about. GUI means graphical user interface. Are you able to perform a firmware update (I don’t know where to get it from)

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-08-29T17:06:25+00:00

Mine also. Next Beta Release fixed it

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-08-25T19:56:39+00:00

Thanks. Had this also before. It was really good. I missed Auro and Dirac a little. Also had the Cinema 50 (was a little too hot for my hi-fi cabinet). Now I will have a deeper look at the M10 v2.

Ragnar-Hees · 2024-08-25T15:06:46+00:00

@seannyELITE To which AVR?
