The Ultimea Skywave F40 is a relatively inexpensive soundbar that comes with two wireless surround speakers and a subwoofer, promising an immersive sound experience.

The Ultimea Skywave F40, which has an official retail price of $279.99, is now on sale for $199.99 at Amazon. As the reviews indicate, the sound system is touted as offering good value for money. For this, buyers receive a 5.1.2 sound system with Dolby Atmos, 2 surround speakers and a 5.25-inch wired subwoofer with BassMX technology, among other features.

Setting up the system appears to be relatively straightforward: the two surround speakers receive audio wirelessly from the soundbar, simplifying the wiring and allowing them to be positioned behind the user as intended, though they still require a power supply (one speaker has the power cord and is connected to the other speaker via another cord). The subwoofer connects to the soundbar via a cord.

Ultimea installs drivers that are designed to reach the user indirectly, by reflecting the sound waves off the ceiling. As for sound quality and whether the Ultimea Skywave F40 produces sound equivalent to a true surround sound system is debatable: potential buyers are advised to read the online reviews of previous buyers for more information here. The system receives audio signals via HDMI eARC or via an optical connection. Playback from a USB stick with a capacity of up to 128 GB is also possible, and MP3 files are supported. Last but not least, Bluetooth 5.4 is available for the easy pairing of devices such as a smartphone or tablet.
