ACCESSORIES

Asus has introduced the ROG Gjallar Gaming Soundbar to fill a gap in dedicated desktop audio setups. This system matters because it combines immersive spatial audio with a dedicated control hub, offering a streamlined alternative to complex multi-speaker arrangements. Gamers and streamers can now access a unified audio solution that handles both game sound and communication without cluttering their desk.

Desktop audio system includes 2.1.2 surround sound and dedicated control hub

The soundbar itself delivers a 2.1.2 surround sound configuration supported by Dolby Atmos. It uses left and right full-range speakers, two high-fidelity tweeters, and two upward-firing drivers to create an immersive soundscape. This layout aims to place audio cues precisely in three-dimensional space for competitive gaming and cinematic media.

Specifications

  • Audio Configuration: 2.1.2 surround sound with Dolby Atmos
  • Speakers: Left and right full-range speakers, two high-fidelity tweeters, two upward-firing speakers
  • Connectivity: Aux, Optical, USB-C, HDMI 2.1 (eARC) with 4K@120Hz pass-through, Bluetooth 5.3
  • Subwoofer: 6.5-inch, 65W, 5GHz wireless
  • Control Hub: Wired connection, LCD panel knob, physical buttons, RGB lighting control

Connectivity options are extensive and designed for modern high-performance setups. The unit includes an HDMI 2.1 port with eARC that supports 4K@120Hz video pass-through, alongside Bluetooth 5.3, USB-C, optical, and aux inputs. A 65-watt, 6.5-inch subwoofer connects via 5GHz wireless to ensure low-latency bass response without cable clutter.

An all-in-one control hub connects to the soundbar via a wired link to manage system settings. The hub features an LCD panel built into a volume knob, physical buttons for input switching, and controls for RGB lighting. It also houses Acoustic Echo Cancellation microphones with a dedicated digital signal processor to filter out background noise and isolate voice chat.

The ROG Gjallar is compatible with PC, Mac, mobile devices, PlayStation, Xbox, and consoles. Asus has not yet revealed pricing or availability details for the system. Buyers will need to wait for official announcements before they can purchase the soundbar or its accompanying subwoofer.
