Immersive Sound
Three Uni-Q MX drivers and two full-range drivers support the left, centre, right, left surround, and right surround channels, creating an expansive soundstage that delivers remarkably realistic audio throughout the room.
The subwoofer channel is powered by four P185 LF drivers, which ensures deep, impactful bass that enriches your sound.
Two overhead channels are supported by 2 Uni-Q MX drivers, which add height to your sound, amplifying sound effects for truly immersive experiences.

The versatile design allows for wall or shelf mounting without compromising on sound quality. Intelligent sensors detect the soundbar’s placement and automatically adjusts for optimal audio.

Dolby Atmos
This popular spatial audio format places sounds in specific locations in a three-dimensional space. This gives you the impression that sound moves around you – like a bullet in your favourite Netflix thriller whizzing right past your shoulder.
DTS:X
This format also uses object-based audio to create immersive surround sound that moves around you. With DTS:X technology rain sounds like it is falling from ceiling to floor rather than just being heard above. Experience it through IMAX Enhanced on Disney+.
