sonos beam gen 2 asymmetric room layout

Hi All,

If anyone could advise please. I am very interested in improving home cinema for the lounge. Torn between beam and arc ultra.

My lounge is 8.32 meter length, 3.76 metre width. I sit width ways facing tv (so just under 3.76 meter to where sound bars will be).

As the room is long so I have large windows about 2 meter to the right of sofa and French doors about 5 meter to right of me.

I do not need major base and im cautious about blasting the neighbour with noise so I don't think I will got beyond 50-60% volume

Does anyone have experience with this layout. I am concerned the psycoacoustic and immersion will be lost due to distance French doors and the sound will not be good.

Also anyone had lip sync issues with beam or ultra? Planning to get new tv this year but I hear hicense or tcl have hand shake issues to. May go lg or sony but any feed back on lip sync would be appreciated. Thank you

Oh its going on the short wall.

Also can anyone advise on recommended pull down tv bracket. Bit like mantle mount. Im in the uk so they don't sell it here. Need a pull down pull out bracket to lower at certain points and bring away from radiator once its lower.

Room layout can definitely have a noticeable impact on sound performance, especially with a soundbar. Fortunately, systems like the Sonos Beam Gen 2 are designed to adapt reasonably well to different room shapes, and features such as room tuning can help improve the overall listening experience. It may not be a perfect setup, but many users still achieve excellent results even in asymmetric spaces.
