About the DHT-S218
The Denon DHT-S218 is a compact, all-in-one 2.1-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar introduced in 2024. It uses six integrated drivers—two tweeters, two midrange drivers, and two down-firing subwoofers—without a separate external subwoofer. Connectivity includes HDMI input and eARC/ARC output, optical digital input, 3.5 mm analog input, Bluetooth, and a subwoofer output for optional bass expansion. It supports Dolby Atmos and Dolby audio formats, 4K video pass-through with VRR and ALLM, Bluetooth LE Audio, several sound modes, and three-level Dialog Enhancer processing. Its 67 mm height is intended to fit beneath many televisions. Denon documentation does not indicate that the DHT-S218 has been discontinued; it remains listed in current product and support materials.
