Couldn’t see a thread on this one so hopefully not duplicating anything. I see Sonos have announced a new soundbar. The Sonos Beam.
Beam: The Smart Soundbar for Your TV | Sonos
Have to say I’m pretty disappointed by this. Finally a Sonos soundbar with HDMI support but it’s ARC only. Currently only supports PCM and Dolby Digital. No DTS. No Atmos/DTS-X.
Might be ok for the TV upstairs but was really hoping they would release something with at least support for Dolby True HD and DTS HD Master Audio.
Hopefully they are waiting to see how e-arc turns out and then more features might be added. Will wait for the reviews/demo before fully judging but seems outdated already.
