{"product_id":"cantonsmartsounddeck100bl","title":"Canton Smart Sounddeck 100 S2, Black (Single)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Canton Smart Sounddeck 100 S2 is an active sounddeck with Dolby Atmos decoding and network streaming, which you place your TV directly on top of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of a bar in front of the picture, a supporting pedestal underneath: 100 centimeters wide, 33 centimeters deep, 12.5 kilograms and equipped with 300 watts of system power. Delivered as a single unit in black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Canton Smart Sounddeck 100 S2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the cabinet volume. Where a flat soundbar physically gives up, the deck has room for a real three-way bass reflex system: four 100 mm aluminum woofers, four 50 mm aluminum midrange drivers and two 19 mm fabric tweeters, crossed over at 150 and 3,000 Hz, with a rear-firing bass reflex port. The result reaches down to 35 Hz, without an extra cube standing in the room. Dolby Atmos and DTS-HD are decoded, three HDMI inputs accept players and the HDMI output handles eARC. Music arrives via AirPlay 2, Chromecast built-in, Spotify Connect, UPnP or Bluetooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference to a flat bar shows immediately in the foundation. Film scores have body, doors close with weight, and yet voices stay cleanly separated, because four dedicated midrange drivers take over the speech range. The height plane is generated computationally rather than via ceiling reflection – it opens the soundstage upward, without objects being sharply localized above you. Plain talk: anyone seeking true Atmos cinema with overhead localization is better served by an upfiring system. Anyone who wants full, deep sound from a single piece of furniture is spot on here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Canton Smart Sounddeck 100 S2 suitable for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain talk: The deck is the right solution if your TV sits on a sideboard and you want full sound with depth from a single device, without a separate subwoofer. If your TV hangs on the wall, it's the wrong form factor – get a soundbar instead. Footprint and weight matter: 100 × 33 centimeters of contact area, maximum 40 kilograms. Measure your TV's stand before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sounddeck 100 S2 is the most sensible way to rescue a living room's sound without rearranging it: one device, one cable, a bass you wouldn't have expected. The virtual height plane is the honest compromise of this form factor, its bass foundation the clear advantage. At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil we clarify beforehand whether your TV furniture and your TV are a match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Active sounddeck with built-in Class D amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic principle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-way bass reflex system with rear-firing bass reflex port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300 W total (Canton specifies neither amplifier channel count nor per-channel power)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrivers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2× 19 mm fabric tweeter, 4× 50 mm aluminum midrange, 4× 100 mm aluminum woofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight reproduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Virtual via signal processing, no upward-firing drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35–23,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover frequencies:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 Hz and 3,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDecoders:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dolby Atmos (licensed), Dolby Digital, DTS-HD, PCM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHDMI:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3× input and 1× output, HDCP 2.2, 4K, 3D, HDR, CEC; output with eARC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFurther connections:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1× stereo RCA analog (max. 2 Vrms), 1× optical Toslink (max. 24 bit\/96 kHz), 1× coaxial (max. 24 bit\/96 kHz), 1× subwoofer output mono RCA (max. 2 Vrms), 1× LAN (RJ45), 1× USB-A (service only, no playback)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput level:\u003c\/strong\u003e No line or preamp output available; the only output is the mono subwoofer RCA at max. 2 Vrms, whose level follows the volume control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not present\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork and streaming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast built-in, Spotify Connect, UPnP; multiroom via AirPlay 2 and Chromecast groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Version 4.0 (retailer spec)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoom calibration:\u003c\/strong\u003e No automatic calibration; sound adjustment via equalizer presets in the app\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum load capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 kg (retailer spec; Canton states no value in the official data sheets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFootprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 × 33 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApp:\u003c\/strong\u003e Canton Smart (iOS and Android), setup also via Google Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial features:\u003c\/strong\u003e LipSync, equalizer presets, IR learning function, on-screen display, wirelessly expandable with Canton Smart speakers, standby 0.4 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silky matte black, MDF housing, fabric cover with magnetic mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×H×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 × 6 × 33 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScope of delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smart Sounddeck 100 S2, remote control, power cable, HDMI cable (3 m), optical digital cable, coaxial digital cable, analog stereo audio cable, instruction manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow heavy can the TV on the Sounddeck 100 S2 be?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe footprint measures 100 × 33 centimeters, the retailer data table states a maximum load capacity of 40 kilograms. Canton itself gives no value in the official data. Besides weight, the stand matters: measure it, especially for TVs with two widely spaced feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Sounddeck 100 S2 produce Dolby Atmos?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is Dolby Atmos licensed and additionally decodes DTS-HD, but computes the height information into the soundstage via signal processing. It has no separate upward-firing drivers, so the height plane stays virtual and comes across less distinctly than with true upfiring systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I additionally need a subwoofer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Four 100 mm aluminum woofers in a three-way bass reflex cabinet play down to 35 Hz, helped by the deck's volume. For even more punch, add a Canton Smart Sub wirelessly or use the subwoofer output for an active model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Sounddeck 100 S2 have a headphone output?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Neither a headphone jack nor an adjustable line output is present. The only output is the mono subwoofer RCA at a maximum of 2 volts, whose level follows the volume control. The USB-A port is for service only and does not play music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between a sounddeck and a soundbar?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA sounddeck sits under the TV and carries it, a soundbar sits in front of it or hangs on the wall. The deck has more cabinet volume and therefore more bass, but needs a sideboard. If your TV hangs on the wall, a soundbar is the right choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Canton Smart Sounddeck 100 S2 from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the decision between deck and bar depends on your furniture, not the data sheet.
