Leaked mini Sennheiser Dolby Atmos soundbar has the specs to beat Sonos Beam

It looks like Sennheiser is getting ready to launch the Sennheiser Ambeo Mini, a new super-compact Dolby Atmos soundbar, very soon – judging by a leak on the company's own website that revealed the as-yet-unannounced TV speaker.

The soundbar says that it will deliver “the world’s most immersive sound possible from just one compact device”, and though in-depth technical information about the number of speakers and other specs is missing from the site, there are still plenty of details – including confirmation that it will support both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, self-calibration tech, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for music streaming. It sounds ready to rival the best soundbars when it comes to features.

All we know about its sound capabilities, apart from support for 3D audio formats, is that it will include “high-end full range drivers” and “built-in 4-inch dual subwoofers”. So, it's clearly designed to be an all-in-one system for smaller TVs, much like the Sonos Beam 2nd Gen although the leaked pictures make clear that it can be used with the Sennheiser Ambeo Sub, which launched alongside the fantastic Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar Plus, if you want to add more bass.

The picture with the Ambeo Sub is also useful because the leak doesn't reveal the size of the smaller soundbar at all, but we can make an estimation by comparing it to the Sub, for which we do know the size.
