New update has given Beam Gen 2 owners height volume control.................

Cancel that SarahN now have it 

had to update twice as you stated 

many thanks 👍

I have the app set to update automatically but it wasn’t doing it automatically for some bizarre reason 🙄

Anyone had chance to test this to see if it makes a difference?

I was wondering the same thing too. I only have my Beam 2 but I don't notice a big difference for Atmos content. Hoping to hear what you guys think!

Hello,

what level did you set for the heights on your beam 2 ? Did you manage to move up until 10 ?

I tried with 0,5, 10. After doing some testing I ended up using 8. There's some difference for sure but really depending on the content you're watching. Overall I feel the volume got boosted with the height audio adjustment. 

Did you hear more sound coming from the height channels ? did it create this bubble effect with Atmos content as expected ?

I do but keep in mind the Beam 2 can only generate virtual height channels. I only have the stand alone Beam but it does a pretty good job with the new update. Hopefully soon I'll be able to add two Ones for the rears!

Sure but Sony, for instance, is good at virtualizing height channels from front speakers.

If you say height channels are clearer and more obvious with this update, I would then go with the beam 2 ;)
