Sonos Beam Ultra is a compact smart soundbar that brings true Dolby Atmos height effects to TVs up to about 65 inches. Nine custom drivers, including two upward-firing tweeters, are powered by nine Class-D amplifiers to create a 7.1.2 sound field from a bar under 30 inches wide. It connects to the TV with a single HDMI eARC cable and becomes part of your Sonos system for music and streaming. This version is black with a matte finish.
It is built for living rooms, bedrooms and apartments, and works well in hotel suites, executive offices, conference rooms and small hospitality spaces where a larger soundbar would overwhelm the room.
