A soundbar can significantly boost your TV’s audio, and the Teufel CINEBAR 11 proves that you don’t have to sacrifice space to get plenty of features, including Dolby Atmos.
According to the manufacturer, the Teufel CINEBAR 11 is just as slim and powerful as its predecessors, but now offers 3D sound with Dolby Atmos at the same price. The slim and flexible T 6 subwoofer is included free of charge. The CINEBAR 11 is also available as part of a complete surround set with wireless rear speakers.
Dolby Atmos
Soundbars continue to be popular, and for good reason: they significantly boost the often thin sound of TVs without taking up much space. The CINEBAR 11 perfectly fits this philosophy and has long been Teufel’s most successful soundbar.
“With the new version, fans can enjoy the familiar surround sound combined with Dolby Atmos technology, which adds height information. Every sound becomes distinctly audible in its unique place in the three-dimensional space. In practice, this means the listener is even more enveloped by sound, resulting in an even more realistic listening experience,” the announcement reads.
Discreet yet Impressive
With a height of just six centimeters and a depth of only eight centimeters, the CINEBAR 11 is extremely slim, according to the manufacturer: “When placed in front of the TV, it’s barely noticeable. Thanks to the integrated keyhole slots, the soundbar can also be easily wall-mounted.
Soundwise, the CINEBAR 11 achieves its impressive performance by outsourcing low frequencies to the external subwoofer. The included T 6 subwoofer fits seamlessly into any living room and can be placed upright next to a sofa or laid flat underneath it. And since the sound signals are transmitted wirelessly from the CINEBAR to the subwoofer, you only need a power outlet to set up the soundbar.”
Satellite Speakers for True Surround Sound
If you want to take it a step further, you can add wireless rear speakers in the form of the EFFEKT 2 satellite speakers. Like the subwoofer, they only need a power outlet. The CINEBAR 11 wirelessly picks up their signals. Choosing the complete surround set also saves you a good amount compared to buying the soundbar, subwoofer, and rear speakers separately.
