Ultimea is adding to its wide range of audio products with the launch of a new Dolby Atmos-capable speaker system. The Apollo S80 soundbar is available for pre-order on the manufacturer’s website for just under $180. Shipping for customers in the US is expected to begin in early February. However, Canadian buyers won’t have to wait, as the soundbar is already in stock and ready for immediate shipment. Eventually, the Apollo S80 is also likely to be listed on Amazon.
Soundbar Features
This soundbar offers surround sound, but unlike other audio products from Ultimea, it does not come with rear satellite speakers. Instead, the soundbar itself contains five speakers. Each of these drivers has a diameter of 2 inches. It’s quite surprising that the entire soundbar can be split into three sections — one for the center and one each for the left and right channels.
Mounting and Setup
All three sections can be mounted on the wall separately. Completing this 5.1-channel setup is a dedicated subwoofer measuring 5.25 inches. All components of this soundbar need to be linked together using cables, and while the soundbar officially supports Dolby Atmos, the surround sound experience might be somewhat limited due to the absence of rear speakers.
Additional Features
Moreover, the Ultimea 5.1 soundbar and subwoofer come with LED ambient lighting, which can be customized for color and brightness through a dedicated smartphone app. This audio system also supports HDMI eARC and includes an optical audio input, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a USB port, and Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity.
