The Mantel Speaker
Beyond the soundbar
The Mantel Speaker (SBXL-100) is the first audio system designed to architectural scale. Where traditional soundbars match or sit below the width of the television, the SBXL-100 extends beyond it — creating the same visual proportion that designers specify for linear fireplaces, floating credenzas, and mantel shelves. This isn't a soundbar mounted beneath a screen. It's a design element that belongs on the wall.
Powered by the included Sonance UA 2-125 ARC amplifier, the system delivers 250 watts of DSP-tuned performance through a single eARC HDMI connection. Dual 6.5" anodized aluminum woofers, dual passive radiators, and a ferrofluid-cooled cloth dome tweeter produce full-range audio from 38Hz to 25kHz — with enough low-end authority that a subwoofer is optional, not required.
Key Features
- Designed to Architectural Scale — At over 82 inches wide, the SBXL-100 creates the same visual proportion designers specify for linear fireplaces, floating credenzas, and mantel shelves, a balanced, intentional composition beneath large format displays.
- Complete System, Single Connection — The included Sonance UA Series 2-125 amplifier and single HDMI eARC cable eliminate equipment clutter. One cable. One connection. Nothing visible but the design.
- 250 Watts of DSP-Tuned Performance — Paired with the included amplifier, the SBXL-100 delivers powerful, high-fidelity audio with room-corrected DSP, tuned to perform the moment it's installed.
- Full-Range Audio — No Subwoofer Required, Dual integrated passive radiators deliver deep, room-filling bass from a single enclosure. No separate subwoofer box to hide, no extra cables to run.
- Precision Wall-Mount Installation — Purpose-built mounting brackets, a straight-edge alignment tool, shim kit, and included template ensure a secure, level result, even on uneven surfaces. Designed for the same installation precision as architectural cabinetry.
- ARC/eARC & CEC HDMI Control — TV remote compatibility through the included amplifier means no additional remotes on the counter and no visible control hardware in the room.
