Test Report

Soundbars with Airplay

If you're really prepared to spend €10,000, our clear recommendation is the Beosound Theatre. Although it doesn't take first place in every category, it does impress on the most important level - sound. For those who are not prepared to spend such a sum, the best choice will ultimately depend on individual preference. The Citation Multibeam 1100 scores with a fan-tastic sound, but operation is nowhere near as effortless as with the Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar Mini. The Sonos Arc also offers impressive sound quality, but does not have as many setting options. Our price-performance hero remains the Sennheiser soundbar. It keeps up surprisingly well with the larger soundbars and also impresses with its operating concept, both with the remote control and the app. It also offers audio modes and other functions, even if these may not always work perfectly. The Smart Ultra soundbar from Bose, on the other hand, falls short of expectations. Although the AI voice amplification mode works impressively well, it fails to develop the sonic depth found in the other soundbars. The JBL Bar 1000 is the only exception to this and brings up the rear in the field of soundbars compared
