ULTIMEA 3.1.2ch Sound Bar for TV, with True Dolby Atmos 2 Up-firing Drivers, 4K HDR Pass-through, HDMI IN/eARC, 390W Peak Power Soundbar with Subwoofer, Nova S70 Ultra-Slim Series, 2024

I have a 43 inch not wall mounted TV, nice size to go with the TV. When I initially set this up looks good better sound than TV speakers, but just lacked something. Went onto Ultimea website seen there was an update to download. Having done this and restarted TV and soundbar from what was originally an S70 now sounds like an S7000, all for about 5 mins work. It's on eARC HDMI so the wife only needs one remote to work everything, I prefer optical connection better sound. Took about 15 mins to set up and with £90 voucher only £150. Has upward facing speakers which enhances surround sound effect in rooms larger than bedrooms. Overall good price, good size, good choice of connections and software updates.

The media could not be loaded. The sound is good but the built quality is not great I’ve experience stuttering, customer support saw the guide I’ve sent them but didn’t act on it. I thought it’s probably a defect so I’ve returned it and ordered the same one which upon arrival had the exact same issue. Turns out the plastic caps on the soundbar do not insulate properly and the vibrations cause the stuttering as it can be seen on the video. Avoid, as two of them had the same issue.

There isn't any verified purchase reviews from the UK, so allow me to he the first.Initial impressions: It's tiny! Even the box it comes I'm isn't wide. I've previously owned two different soundbar, a normal 2.0 and a "Dolby Atmos" 2.2. They were at least twice the height and wider, too. You're getting 3 tweeters, a subwoofer (not plugged into the mains) and 2 ceiling firing tweeters for a reasonable cost.Sound: I wasn't able to get my previous "Dolby Armos" soundbar working with my Samsung TV, but this one works as intended out-of-the-box. The sound is pretty amazing for its size, I must admit. I don't think you're getting a true cinema experience, but then again, you aren't paying for it. I live in a flat so I don't have the subwoofer maxed out, which is impressive considering it's not mains powered. You can feel the sound stage though, and it's pretty cool! If gives a whole new dimension to films and games.Once you're ready, do yourself a favour and download the v139 firmware from the official website.I'd highly recommend this for an affordable Dolby Atmos experience.

Unfortunately I have never managed to get the HDMI eARC connection to work on this soundbar for more than a few hours so I have never been able to experience everything that it supposedly offers. I have followed every instruction to the letter and have tried to get help from the ULTIMEA website without any success. Every time I turn my LG TV back on from standby, the HDMI connection on the soundbar will stop working. The optical connection works fine but without HDMI eARC, I can't experience the true Dolby Atmos that this soundbar apparently has. Save your money or go for a brand with some reliability behind it.

This is such a dinky little soundbar, we hardly notice it's there. Great sound quality for the money. A bit tricky to set up but excellent customer service.

Sound is good. Base good and deep.. re amended

Well my LG tv has half reasonable sound from the built in speakers, however I wanted to improve this and chose this soundbar as it has upward speakers which I hoped would assist with dolby audio.So far I have not downloaded and updated to the alternative firmware which is offered via the manufacturer's website.My impression is the sound is slightly flat, there is no mode for enhancing speech, I find speech slightly muffled in comparison to the tv 'clear voice' setting.The most annoying thing I find is that the volume increment steps are too large, therefore when the volume is just below a comfortable level, increasing the volume by one step makes it too loud, is is very difficult to get a happy medium. The tv has smaller increment steps and it is easy to obtain a comfortable level. I feel this is the largest negative for the product.

After trying 3 different sound bars this one is amazing with the sounds quality, how easy it was to set up and the weight is minimal. Slim and great sleek looking design. The two upwards firing speaker create a great sound atmosphere along side the base. Definitely recommend.
