60%positive14%mixed26%negative

Owners enjoy the lively sound and strong value, though weak bass, uneven treble, and setup issues can disappoint.

What owners dislike

  • Owners report thin midrange, harsh treble when bass is lowered, and muffled high sounds like sword clashes or rear-channel effects.3
  • Some owners got no sound over ARC until they changed the TV audio from passthrough to Auto to get Dolby.3

Third-party reviews

What customers like about ULTIMEA Poseidon M60

  • Dolby Atmos support adds depth to movie soundtracks.
  • A subwoofer is included, so the bass comes with the set.
  • Dialogue enhancement keeps speech clear in loud scenes.
  • The app offers an equalizer for shaping the sound.
  • The remote covers every setting.
  • Setup is easy and everyday use stays simple.

What customers don't like about ULTIMEA Poseidon M60

  • Without rear speakers, the surround effect is less immersive.
  • No Wi-Fi, so AirPlay and Chromecast are not available.
  • No DTS:X or DTS-HD Master Audio support.
  • No Bluetooth multipoint, so only one device stays connected at a time.
  • No Spotify Connect and no automatic room calibration.

Verdict

Movie nights are the reason to look at the ULTIMEA Poseidon M60, a 5.1 set with a subwoofer in the box. Its Dolby Atmos support is the first thing to try, and dialogue enhancement makes speech easier to follow when action gets loud. The subwoofer adds real low end that fills the room. Music sounds good at moderate volume too. The app adds an equalizer, and the remote covers every setting. Setup is simple, and the eARC port handles Atmos sound from the TV. The trade-off is that there are no rear speakers, so the surround effect feels less immersive than in a full system. It suits a family that watches films in a living room and wants a complete set that is easy to run every day.
