Great video! Thanks for sharing your experience. I paired the Beam with the Sub Mini and it was a game changer. Sound is quite amazing. It adds another element to the total package. My room is small (12X12) so this setup works well. This setup will work well for most if the room is somewhat on the smaller side.
would the BEAM 2 + SUB MINI + ERA 100's be sufficient for a 12x14 foot room with 7.5 foot ceiling ? like to watch sports / movies / news channels or would just the ARC ULTRA by itself be just as good ? thx a bunch cheers from Canada
Sorry for the late reply, been very unwell. GREAT question though. In all honest that sub makes such a huge difference I’d go beam over the newer Arc ultra. It is much better than the Beam 2 from what I’ve heard but I doubt it can replicate the deep rumble of the sub mini, for sports and movies I honestly think the double combo is better. Unless you think you’ll add a sub to the arc in the future?

So glad to hear it, I think our room sizes are similar - I love what this adds for movies and the like
@HamerReviews - also agree with you on the footprint of the beam. It is smaller but it packs a punch.
Relatable and useful review. Helped me decide. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Yep I have a Beam gen2 and really considering a Sub mini, Amazon selling them for around £320
That’s not bad, I paid around £300 with the discounts I was being offered direct from Sonos so not far off
Looks quite funky! What’s the connectivity like for the soundbar?
The Beam Gen 2 is super easy to setup - Wi-Fo for AirPlay but also HMDI for eArc or you can use a converter for optical connectivity
@@HamerReviews can it connect to the TV wirelessly as well?
@@2007ACE2007sadly not - a HDMI connection is still required on Beam gen 2 and Arc
Hi, I am looking at getting the mini-sub, but have a Gen 1. Will it still work?
Beam Gen 1 is supported so it will work yes 🙂
