Among the various audio equipment made by ROG, the latest one is not the one that wears on your head – It sits on your desk instead. Introducing the ROG Gjallar gaming soundbar.
The chonky unit provides a realistic 3D soundstage through 2.1.2 Dolby Atmos surround sound, combining full-range left and right speakers, dedicated tweeters, up-firing channels, and a wireless subwoofer running on 5GHz connectivity.
It also comes with an all-in-one audio control hub with a vibrant LCD display, giving gamers quick access to EQ settings, playback controls, input source switching, and RGB lighting, letting players toggle between profiles tuned for gaming, music, or movies. That same hub houses built-in microphones powered by Acoustic Echo Cancellation technology, which filters out teammate voices and in-game sound effects from the speakers, while an AI beamforming algorithm sharpens directional voice capture and suppresses ambient noise like PC fan hum for clearer communication.
Meanwhile, the 6.5-inch, 65-watt wireless subwoofer handles low-end frequencies for deep, impactful bass on explosions and other effects, while its slim profile and wireless design allow for flexible placement in most room setups. The soundbar is aimed at players who want competition-grade audio precise enough to pinpoint enemy locations by sound alone.
For connectivity, the Gjallar supports USB-C, HDMI 2.1 with eARC, optical and AUX inputs, and Bluetooth 5.3, making it easy to switch between PC, Mac, mobile devices, and consoles like PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo Switch. HDMI 2.1 also enables 4K at 120Hz video pass-through, while eARC handles lossless, high-resolution audio with synced, low-latency visuals.
A built-in USB hub with 2x USB Type-A ports on the side adds room for wireless dongles, external storage, or other peripherals, and the Aura RGB lighting rounds out the setup with up to 16.8 million colors and 4 preset effects.
And if you need more in-depth tuning, the ASUS Gear Link website offers more customization over there.
