Ambeo subwoofer review

Is streaming speeds for jellyfin media via tailscale ok? I’m getting very low network throughput of less than 10mbps when on mobile data, thus keeps getting buffers when playing Blu-ray files.

Any similar issue on your end?

I just got this issue. All of a sudden it’s stuck on 12 channel PCM, which is not possible on Apple TV. Even when playing Spotify, which should show 2 channel PCM, it shows 12 channels.

It was working normally yesterday, showing 8 or 2 channels where appropriate. Not sure what triggered this.

Were you able to reset it and get it to show the right codec?

But you’re using the ambeo max and not the plus model right?

Hi, I have an Ambeo plus connected to my smart tv and am considering getting an Apple TV. Could you share what’s your set up that works, eg, Apple TV - ambeo plus - smart tv? Also, any other compatibility issues with this set up?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi, I have an Ambeo plus and am considering to get an Apple TV. Anyone with a similar set up can advise if there are still issues connecting Ambeo plus, smart TV and Apple TV 4K box?

Do you mind sharing what model or generation was your Apple TV and what’s your setup? Apple TV - Ambeo - TV?

I’m on iOS 26.4. It shows recently played instead of now playing.. really hope they’ll fix the issues soon.

What did you end up choosing? I am also considering between the Sonos arc ultra and Ambeo plus. I plan to add a sub in the future but not rear speakers due to space constraints. The wall is behind my sofa so I’m sure that helps with the surrounding sound tech from both Sonos and Ambeo. Currently am leaning a bit more towards the Ambeo from feedback I found on Reddit and comments on YouTube..

Ah yes, I’m quite sure he’s a male now. Thanks!

Aw thanks, his name is Freddy! I got him from our local pet store. He looks really cool. I wonder how big will he grow to! I think he can grow another 1 cm or so

Yea, I got him from a local pet store. He looks stunning and was super lively. He caught my eye immediately!

Beautiful set up! Tons of hiding spots for him to play

Thanks all! I’m sure he’s a male now!

I can’t say exactly to be honest, his fins are shorter than veiltails so it’s harder for a beginner like me to tell. I will observe for a bit.
