Zebronics has added a new flagship soundbar to its home audio lineup in India. The ZEB-Juke Bar 9890 is a 5.1.2 channel system that supports both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. It is currently available on Amazon and Flipkart with a launch price of ₹29,999 ($315).
Zebronics ZEB-Juke Bar 9890 Specifications
The system has a total stated output of 1030W RMS, which is divided among a few different components. The main soundbar unit contains five drivers, three facing forward and two pointing upward to handle the height channels required for spatial audio formats.
The package also includes two rear satellite speakers and an 8-inch (20.32cm) subwoofer. Because the rear speakers and subwoofer connect wirelessly to the main bar, it cuts down on the amount of cabling needed across the living room, making the initial setup a bit more straightforward.
For audio processing, the soundbar relies on its up-firing drivers to bounce sound off the ceiling, simulating overhead audio for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X tracks. Zebronics also includes its own internal audio processing, which it calls Zeb-AcoustiMax, designed to manage the surround sound distribution.
Physically, the soundbar and satellite speakers are wrapped in a dark fabric finish, a common design choice intended to help the hardware blend in with standard living room furniture. The main bar features a basic LED display on the front to show the current input or volume level, and the unit includes the necessary hardware to be mounted to a wall.
The connectivity options cover the standard requirements for a modern TV setup. The primary connection is HDMI eARC, which is necessary to transmit high-bandwidth audio formats directly from the TV.
It also features an optical input, a 3.5mm auxiliary jack, and a USB port for playing MP3 files from a flash drive. For wireless audio playback from a phone or tablet, it uses Bluetooth 5.3.
