How does is compare to Sennheiser's Ambeo soundbar?? Both are pretty pricey . . . But the design on this is gorgeous whereas the Ambeo is a tank.
@AudioAdvice2 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your question. AMBEO has 13 larger high-end drivers which makes it a little bulkier and DIONE has 17 smaller premium drivers which help it to be a little slimmer. In our testing, the larger high-end drivers in AMBEO made a noticeable difference on Atmos height effects compared to DIONE. You could hear these types of effects better on AMBEO and this adds to the immersion. Having said that, being slimmer and being able to adapt to the wall the way it does, DIONE is going to be a fantastic ergonomic solution for most people. The built-in sub and clarity of midrange voices are where DIONE shines and this performance comes extremely close if not exceeds AMBEO. AMBEO is a beast with excellent low-end, shockingly immersive Atmos effects and sounds really good on music. The trade-off is that it is larger than most traditional sound bars. We hope that helps and thanks for watching.

I'm very disappointed about the dione! I returned it to the store after 2 weeks due to the bass issues. It's a shame that as a user you can't adjust anything with regard to the volumes, including the bass and center channel volume. The bass level suppresses the center channel and all sounds like one big bass mass! Not to mention the problem that the volume is very low on streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ I had to turn the volume up to almost level "80/85" for a bit of volume in a 30 square meters room, really terrible! The store I bought it from was experiencing the same issues regarding the weak volume on streaming services. Regarding the Atmos sound/effect, it is also very disappointing and not really noticeable. DEVIALET! FIX THIS! 😬

Most of the newer TVs from the last few years have the ARC or eARC HDMI connection-type. As long as your TV has an ARC HDMI connection, then you will get to experience true Dolby Atmos. On the other hand, DIONE will upscale any audio signal into a 5.1.2 channels of three dimensional immersion. So, this bar will still give you an upscaled Atmos effect that uses the DIONE's Atmos speakers to great effect. We hope this helps and thanks for watching.

@@BruceyEmpire Great question. Both are very close in price. Neither one will be a replacement for a full-sized home theater system. However, both are totally self-contained Dolby Atmos solutions for anyone wanting to replace the sound coming out of their TV with something that sounds substantially better. Having said that, if you plan to connect a dedicated subwoofer, go with the AMBEO as that one has a subwoofer output. Read more about AMBEO's subwoofer output here: www.audioadvice.com/sennheiser-ambeo-soundbar - AMBEO is a lot larger as well, so if you are not planning to ever connect a sub and just want something that takes up as little room as possible but still delivers impressive bass, then DIONE offers performance that comes very close to AMBEO. www.audioadvice.com/devialet-dione-dolby-atmos-soundbar DIONE will perform best in smaller rooms where as AMBEO will perform better in medium-sized rooms.

Where's the 5.1.2 come from if there's no subwoofer?. You can't have 5.1.2 and not have 1 subwoofer. You just can't. Just because you make a neodymium tweeter go down to 24Hz doesn't mean that you qualify as a 5.(1).2. It's just a 5.2.
@AudioAdvice2 жыл бұрын
We can certainly see your point. DIONE has eight built-in long-throw woofers inside that are also powered by Devialet's special SAM® tech - which gives it a single dedicated sub-frequency channel in the 5.1.2 configuration for the impressively deep 25Hz bass. DIONE can reproduce good bottom-end weight without a dedicated sub, but we agree that this is not a replacement for the "slam" & "impact" that a dedicated subwoofer in the room will offer. Instead, DIONE offers a pretty elegant setup for people who have a room with limited space and where the power of a dedicated sub is not needed. For its size and slim form factor, it's very impressive! Hope that helps and thanks for watching.
