Pros
- Ambeo max would be my choice or the kef xio
- Kef xio for one solution.
- You will be definitely paying more than you should but perhaps consider the KEF XIO or Devialet Dione too
- Soundbar for music? Ambeo Max/Plus or Kef Xio,those focus on audio quality, add a sub for techno and metal.
- KEF XIO if money isn´t an issue, its better then plus + sub and rearspeaker are confirmed for future prove
Cons

The kef xio is by far the best all in one solution but has drawbacks that you can’t do rears and the sub wireless adapter is faulty so they pulled it. If you don’t want sub or rears it’s the best on the market.
Kef xio for one solution.

Kef xio is a bug magnet. Everywhere I look people are having glitches with CEC issues along with the Apple TV along with other devices shutting off and people having to do resets all the time plus the sound is getting very low quality results especially for a standalone bar that costs $2500 and $4900 with their sub.

the kef xio which is like the klipsch in that it’s out already and people are having all sorts of cec issues and most are saying that it’s definitely not worth $2500 just for the bar as it only sounds okay, but go on yt and look up kef xio and you’ll find 3-4 reviews that make it sound like the best option ever, but there’s a catch-They were all allowed to keep it from Kef except A Robinsons review which ripped it as a big headache of problems and mediocre sound quality.
