Does the AMBEO Sub work with any soundbar?

No. It is designed to pair wirelessly with Sennheiser's AMBEO Soundbar Plus and Max. It will not connect to other brands or to an AV receiver.

How low does the bass go?

Sennheiser rates it from about 27 Hz to 80 Hz. That is deep for an 8-inch sealed sub and enough for most movie soundtracks.

Do I need to run cables to it?

No. It pairs wirelessly with a compatible soundbar, though it still needs a power outlet. The built-in microphone handles room calibration.

Can I use it with a home theater receiver?

Not practically. It has no LFE or HDMI input, so a receiver cannot feed it a dedicated subwoofer signal.

Can I add a second sub?

Yes. Two AMBEO Subs can be paired with one compatible soundbar for more even bass across a larger room.

Our take on the Sennheiser AMBEO Sub

The AMBEO Sub is Sennheiser's compact wireless subwoofer for its AMBEO soundbar line. It pairs over Bluetooth with the AMBEO Soundbar Plus and Max, and its built-in microphone runs a self-calibration routine that tunes bass to the room. An 8-inch driver in a sealed cabinet, powered by a 350 W Class D amp, reaches down to about 27 Hz. It is small enough to tuck beside a sofa, but it only makes sense if you already own a compatible Sennheiser soundbar.

Cons

What reviewers say

4.3 / 5116 ratings

Owners rate it highly and single out the deep, controlled bass and the easy wireless setup with AMBEO soundbars. Complaints center on the closed ecosystem and the lack of inputs for use with other systems.

What people mention

Bass depthPraisedOwners say it adds real low-end weight to movies and music that the soundbar alone cannot deliver.
SetupPraisedPairing wirelessly and running the calibration is described as quick and trouble-free.
SizePraisedBuyers like that the small cabinet fits beside furniture without dominating the room.
CompatibilityCriticisedReviewers note it only works with AMBEO soundbars and cannot be added to a receiver-based system.
ConnectivityCriticisedThe absence of HDMI, LFE and Wi-Fi streaming is called out as a limitation for the money.
