Hi all , finally got my beam gen 2 and 2 One SL surround speakers set up today , can I just ask , in the app if I turn off the surrounds they flash green , is it better when muting surrounds to toggle them off so they flash green or keep them toggled on but turn the surround volume to zero , thanks

Adjusting the surround levels to “zero” or -15 doesn’t completely mute the speakers. So disabling the surrounds would be the best option.

Thanks , so it won't make any difference if I toggle them off and leave them flashing green ?

As long as the flashing green light doesn’t bother you, then toggling the surrounds off won’t hurt anything.

I’ll admit to having put pieces of black tape on the top of those speaker lights, as it annoys me when I have them “muted” that they blink. :)

Yeah tbh not that bothered at the moment but when they're muted they should go a solid colour rather than blink .

It’s all personal, for sure.

I’m of the opinion that if I have the LEDs turned off in the controller, they shouldn’t light up when muted….but I suspect it probably often helps the CS folks because it doesn’t work that way. :)
