Not enough to notice, I wouldn’t think. There’d be super slight absorption of some frequencies from the plants, but I wouldn’t think anywhere enough to notice. You could certainly try temporarily removing them, though, if you’re genuinely concerned, and see how your ears react.

Did you have a question, the post is blank when I look at it.

I’m not sure if I posted it correctly, but my question was regarding this photo I took of my system. The two vases in the artificial plants inside them are about a foot away from the ends of the arc ultra. Does this interfere with the sound being produced by the sound bar? Thank you in advance.

Move them out of the way, and listen. If you can’t hear a difference, put them back. If you can, you have to decide whether they are more important aesthetically or aurally.

Logical. 
I tried listening both ways. I even re-ran TruePlay. I cannot hear a difference. So I guess they stay and everybody is happy😂
