Samsung Music Studio 7: stellar solo, unbeatable as a pair

Samsung's $500 Music Studio 7 is a premium Wi‑Fi speaker with a five‑driver, 3.1.1 setup and HDMI eARC, delivering solid standalone sound and, when paired with a second unit, a formidable TV audio option that can rival premium soundbars thanks to Dolby Atmos support, AirPlay 2, Google Cast, and Samsung's Group Play. It includes SpaceFit room calibration and a companion Sound app for EQ and grouping, and can sync up to 10 Samsung speakers. Limitations include limited turntable wiring (Bluetooth or an analog-to-digital adapter via optical) and a design that favors form over inconspicuous decor. A pair runs about $1,000 and offers strong value for immersive home theater sound.

Momentum 5 Wireless: Refined Sound and ANC, but at a Higher Price

Momentum 5 Wireless sharpens sound and ANC over Momentum 4, adds a user‑replaceable battery and an 8‑band EQ app with Dolby Atmos (head tracking coming soon), and improves call quality. It lasts about 57 hours with ANC and costs more than the previous model, making the upgrade worthwhile for sound and noise cancellation but pricey, with Atmos still a work in progress amid stiff competition.

Bose unveils Lifestyle Ultra lineup: Atmos-enabled soundbar, sub and wireless speaker aimed at rivals

Bose has unveiled its Lifestyle Ultra line—a Dolby Atmos-enabled soundbar backed by a matching Ultra Subwoofer and Ultra Speaker designed for multi‑room home audio.

It supports Bose CustomTune room calibration, HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, Google Cast, Apple AirPlay and Spotify Connect (with Tidal Connect promised later).

Available now in Stone and Charcoal: 200 (£299/$399/AU$699), 400 (£449/$599/AU$999), 600 (£599/$799/AU$1,499). Denon positions them as a furniture‑friendly alternative to Sonos, with a full review to come.

LG’s 2026 OLED lineup adds Samsung-backed Eclipsa Audio alongside Atmos

LG’s 2026 TV lineup (including C6, G6 and W6 OLEDs plus RGB Mini LED models) will support Eclipsa Audio, Samsung and Google’s open-source 3D‑audio format, as an Atmos rival. Playback works through the TV’s built-in speakers or HDMI eARC devices, and the format is currently not supported by streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, or Apple TV+—it's aimed at YouTube content creators. This marks LG embracing a rival’s IAMF standard on its own TVs.

Nebula X1 Pro: Anker’s 4K projector becomes a seven-speaker, Atmos-ready home theater on wheels

Verge reviewer Thomas Ricker profiles the Anker Soundcore Nebula X1 Pro, a bulky yet impressive all-in-one 4K projector that adds a full 7.1.4 wireless speaker system (160W sub, four satellites) for immersive Dolby Atmos. It’s bright (3500 ANSI lumens), surprisingly loud, and offers auto calibration and three sound modes, but its heft (about 72 pounds) and price ($4,999) make it less portable and more of a “home theater on wheels,” with occasional Google TV Wi‑Fi hiccups and some caveats about outdoor use. Still, it delivers a unique, theater‑class experience in a single package for those willing to invest.
