Beam Gen 2

For movies in a bedroom I suggest paired set of HomePods 2. It will give you Spatial Audio/Atmos and music will sound good. Spotify still plays through airplay or AppleTV app. Sonos era 300 can compete with a paired set but that would be only music. AppleTV would send audio through airplay and would

Went from a Sonos surround set (Beam gen2, 2x Era 100 and Sub mini) to the A9’s, with the purpose to enjoy active music listening. I am using an AppleTv to stream to sound of movies to the speakers. Active music listening went up from 0% to about 50/50 (music/movies).

Sonos beam gen 2 is very good. Not an overpowering sound but plenty loud enough. Can add rears if you want to and even a sub woofer.

There is no clearly right or clearly wrong option. AV Amplifier mode allows for specific multichannel config selection, but you run the risk of incorrectly identifying how many channels you have (maybe one thinks they have 7.1, but this is a true 5.1 setup). If you select Soundbar, then you rely on

This is our family room Frame TV, I think my Sonos Beam Gen 2 blends in quite well.

Try playing a test tone track and make sure the channels are coming from the correct speaker. Also when playing audio check the Sonos app to see what format it is playing. If it is PCM instead of Dolby Digital Plus 5.1, Dolby Atmos, etc and the source supports those formats than it likely is the set

So I’m using a Sonos Beam (Gen 2) and Sonos Sub mini with my LG G4 tv.

I’m no audiophile so frankly cannot tell much difference other than Atmos seems to be louder.

However I like the comfort of knowing I’m using the optimum settings. I’ve obviously done a search but I’m getting mixed answers.

I highly recommend adding fronts. I’ve experimented with Fives, Play 3s, era 100s, and One G2s. They all sound awesome but the order I listed them is how I rank them in terms of overall sound quality. I bought the Play 3s just do the test. $140 for the pair which seems to be the going rate. I was sh

Hi all,

Here’s my setup -

• Hisense U8QF
• Chromecast / Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 (same issue on both)
• Sonos Beam Gen 2
• Connected with ARC (not eARC)
• TV audio set to passthrough
• Plex audio set to passthrough
• No plex pass

I also have a setup with an LG CX/Sonos Arc so I don’t want to convert all my AAC a

Nisam audiofil. Telka mi ima dobre zvučnike (Phillips The One 75’), ali sam htio upgrade. Žena nije odobrila Sonos Era 350 pa sam uzeo dva Era 100 i Beam 2 kombo, za moje potrebe sasvim dovoljno, iako bih volio woofer ubaciti u mix. Pregovori su u tijeku.
