NextLevel Acoustics has introduced two new Mantelbar solutions designed to combine high-performance audio with the clean architectural aesthetic of today’s living spaces: Mantelbar and Mantelbar for the Sonos Arc.
Each model provides a modern alternative to the traditional fireplace mantel. Available in a range of custom finishes and designer grille fabrics, every Mantelbar can be tailored to complement virtually any interior while maintaining a clean, built-in appearance.
The Mantelbar for the Sonos Arc is designed to fully conceal the soundbar within the mantel while preserving its intended acoustic performance. Because the Sonos Arc incorporates upward-firing Atmos drivers, the Mantelbar features a custom-engineered waveguide specifically designed to direct its height-channel audio out of the enclosure and preserve the immersive overhead effects the soundbar was designed to deliver.
For projects that demand true theater performance without a visible speaker, the Mantelbar takes the same Cinema 5 loudspeaker used in dedicated home theaters and integrates it directly into the mantel — delivering reference-level performance in a clean, architectural format. Featuring high-performance 5.5-inch drivers paired with premium-grade 1-inch tweeters, the Mantelbar delivers the clarity, dynamics, output, and cinematic impact of a dedicated theater loudspeaker while maintaining the clean aesthetic of a fully integrated solution.
