Information about Sonos Beam expansion

Dear all,

Hi, I’m a new Sono user.
I would like to ask here some questions and search for suggestions, so let’s start:

  • AFAIK TruePlay is configurable only with iPhone. What if I have only Android? Isn’t there another way?
  • Which speakers are compatible with my Sonos Beam Gen 2 to expand my Home Theater System?
  • Are there compatible speakers that are wireless and rechargable? My goal is to use them only when needed, so when I play a movie and then place them somewhere when not used.
  • In case I add two speakers, are then they added as back-left and back-right speaker? I mean on a Dolby audio movie I’ll able to listen the ambient sound coming from behind with the back audio channels?
  • Last but not least, what would you give priority to expand my setup. Starting from a little subwoofer or starting from the rear satellite speakers?

Thanks a lot to all!

Simon

The Sonos One SL is an optimal surround speaker.

This is my set up. A Beam Gen 2, 2 x OneSLs as surrounds and a Sub mini. Sounds great!

That’s exactly what I would then have, thanks for sharing your experience!!
Hope I’ll can enjoy movies (dolby 5.1) and music well, so far :-)
