Cambridge-based audio company Majority has launched a new line of soundbars and surround sound systems, hailed as its “most ambitious and comprehensive” to date.
These new launches are designed for music fans as well as film lovers and gamers, and Majority says that the collection’s headliner, the Bowfell Halo Atmos, is “engineered to redefine what immersive home audio sounds like at this price level.”
The flagship Bowfell Halo Atmos is, as its name suggests, powered by Dolby Atmos technology, and delivers 300W of output. The system includes an external wireless subwoofer and dual wireless rear satellite speakers, creating a fully immersive, three-dimensional soundstage. Connectivity options include HDMI ARC and optical inputs, alongside Bluetooth 5.3 for wireless streaming. USB and AUX playback are supported, and a remote control is included. It comes in at £169.95.
The Bowfell Halo Dolby system offers a slightly cheaper price point (£119.95) and still offers some Dolby goodness. It delivers 5.1 surround sound with Dolby Audio processing and a total power output of 180W. The system features an external wired subwoofer and dual wired rear satellite speakers, as opposed to its wireless sibling. Connectivity options remain the same.
Moving away from the Halo offerings are the Bowfell Axis Atmos (£129.95) and the Bowfell Axis Dolby (£89.95) soundbars. The Bowfell Axis Atmos is a 2.1 channel soundbar system also powered by Dolby Atmos, producing a 200W output, while the Axis Dolby delivers 120W of output with Dolby Audio processing. The Axis Atmos features an external wireless subwoofer (wired on the Axis Dolby), and connectivity options remain the same.
The Bowfell soundbar range will launch on 16 February and will be available from Amazon and Richer Sounds. The range will be showcased at the Bristol Hi-Fi Show from 20 February. Find out more via Majority.
