Hi.

I have a Sonus Beam Gen 2 and 2 Roam speakers.If I wish to get better surround sound should I replace the Roam speakers with a Mini Sub or get the Mini Sub working in conjuction with the 2 Roam speakers?

Since the Roam speakers can’t be configured as surrounds, I’m not sure quite what your system setup is. But to get surround sound, a pair of Era 100’s, for current products, or a pre-owned pair of Ones will do the job.

Yes, indeed. Although the two Era 100s will appear in the same Sonos ‘room’ as the Beam as surrounds for it. The Move would be a separate ‘room’, and for music playback. You can choose, if you want, to group them.

My preference, when playing music on my soundbar, is to set the surround settings in the app to have them play the music in ‘full’ rather than ‘ambient’. You may want, if you ever do this, to try both ways, and see what you prefer.
