What reviewers think

Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.

What are hifi reviews useful for? (1) Identifying products you should demo in person at a dealer. (2) Learning which products reviewers unanimously praise as the best they've heard (this means they probably are legitimately great). (3) Identifying a product's attributes that satisfy your idiosyncratic needs and tastes. Beyond that, we often discount what reviewers say because they heap praise on most products—and are often apprehensive about publishing strong criticism or comparisons between products. Further, they seldom have more than a few products on-hand, often relying on their memories to compare past products. Always listen for yourself.

Redefining soundbar performance

The Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar redefines soundbar performance, delivering extraordinary clarity, outstanding musicality, and exceptionally powerful bass. The RoomPerfect™ technology calibrates the soundbar for any room and any placement, always achieving the best possible sound performance when mounted as an on-wall speaker or placed on furniture.

Exceptional loudspeaker technology and 1.600 watt power

Three renowned Air Motion Transformer tweeters, three dedicated midrange drivers, and two powerful woofers, combined with amplification power of 1.600 watt, turn every movie and musical selection into an extraordinary experience, far beyond what a common soundbar or any built-in TV speaker can deliver. Based on the renowned Model S speaker technology built into an extra-wide design, the Model S Soundbar can even serve as a powerful high-end audio loudspeaker for music, providing excellent stereo imaging and soundstaging.

Outstanding build quality and finishes

Made from machined solid aluminum front and back panels, a low-resonance MDF frame with five acoustically separated chambers inside, and lacquered in matte black or immaculate high gloss black with gold details and signature strings, the Model S Soundbar is as beautiful as it is timeless. Custom finishes are available on request. Every soundbar is assembled and finished by hand in Skive, Denmark.

Integrated system approach for the ideal amplifier match

Steinway Lyngdorf's integrated system approach ensures the ideal amplifier match and the best system performance. The Model S Soundbar is powered by four amplification channels from the Steinway & Sons A1 or A2 digital power amplifier, while the Steinway & Sons stereo or surround processor with RoomPerfect™ adapts it to the room acoustics and ensures the best possible sound performance anywhere.

Steinway Lyngdorf is unique for its fully digital amplification technology and RoomPerfect system, which processes signals entirely in the digital domain and automatically adapts sound to any room's acoustics without requiring acoustic treatment. Their systems are built as closed ecosystems with components that must work together, featuring distinctive dipole speakers that emit sound from both front and back to mimic how Steinway pianos interact with a room.
