Ultimea is a brand that has already gained some recognition, at least in some segments, such as projectors and soundbars. The Skywave F30 Boom has just joined that lineup of home theater products and it comes with a dedicated subwoofer. US customers can now preorder the Dolby Atmos soundbar for $185 at the brand's official online store, but it won’t ship until late August.
The soundbar itself features multiple individual drivers. It includes left and right drivers, a center speaker and two upward-firing speakers. The sound from the latter is designed to reflect off the ceiling in an attempt to create a more immersive audio experience without the need for additional satellite speakers. Ultimea also opted for a dedicated subwoofer for deeper bass, which turns this into a 3.1.2-channel audio setup.
The audio output is specified as 360 watts, which is the peak power. The home theater system further comes with Dolby Atmos support and can receive audio signals via HDMI (eARC), optical input, and in various audio formats that can be played directly from an external USB storage with up to 128GB of capacity. Bluetooth 5.4 is onboard as well, and the Ultimea soundbar ships with a remote control in the box. Lastly, the Skywave F30 Boom can be customized and controlled via a corresponding smartphone app.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier. After I fell in love with the creation of digital content while working in a marketing position, I now scour the web to bring you the most exciting topics in the world of tech. Outside the office, I’m particularly passionate about motorsports and mountain biking.
