Does the LARKSOUND Mini work with a computer monitor?

Yes. Its 16-inch width suits a desk, and HDMI or optical from a PC or monitor output feeds it. Bluetooth also lets you stream from a phone or laptop.

Does it come with a subwoofer?

No. It is a 2.0-channel bar with built-in drivers only, so low bass is modest compared with 2.1 bars that include a sub.

You can keep a TV on HDMI or optical and pair a phone over Bluetooth 5.0, switching between them. Only one source plays at a time.

No. It decodes stereo 2.0 audio only, so Atmos and surround formats are downmixed rather than played as height or rear channels.

Volume is adjusted from the bar itself or from the connected TV or device over HDMI and optical. There is no separate sub or rear speaker to manage.
