Sennheiser confirms its ambition to make the AMBEO Soundbar Max the absolute reference in high-end soundbars. With the new AMBEO | OS2 update, the German manufacturer enhances its flagship model with improved dialogue clarity, advanced channel customization, as well as TIDAL Max compatibility and Google Cast optimization.
Voice Enhancement for clearer dialogue
One of the most eagerly-awaited features concerns voice reproduction. The new Voice Enhancement function enhances dialogue clarity with remarkable precision. No more straining to understand what someone is saying during a film or sports broadcast: voices are now detached from the mix and better integrated into the sound space. Four levels of adjustment let you modulate the effect according to the content and the listener’s preferences, from a simple increase in clarity to pronounced accentuation.
Unique sound customization
The AMBEO | OS2 upgrade also paves the way for individual channel control. The user can adjust the center channel, lateral and up-firing drivers separately. This approach allows the reproduction to be adapted to room’s geometry, the content type or personal tastes. As a result, the Sennheiser AMBEO Max is now able to offer a truly bespoke experience.
TIDAL Max: high-resolution music
New compatibility with TIDAL Max marks a major step forward for fans of studio-quality music. The streaming service is now available in up to 24-bit/192kHz, allowing you to rediscover your favorite tracks without compression. This makes the AMBEO Max a unique solution for combining home theater and hi-fi at the highest level.
Google Cast optimized
Sennheiser also enhances the Google Cast function, which is now capable of streaming up to 24-bit/96kHz. Users can now enjoy more stable, higher-quality streaming from their usual apps. A welcome optimization that completes the soundbar’s already comprehensive arsenal of connectivity and multi-platform streaming features.
A transparent, automatic update
Good news for owners of the Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar Max: the AMBEO | OS2 update installs automatically when the soundbar is connected to the Internet and linked to the Sennheiser Smart Control app. You can also run a manual search or download the firmware from the official website. Whichever method you choose, the process is simple and hassle-free, in keeping with the AMBEO’s plug-and-play philosophy.
