From Beam to Arc
Currently have a beam, 2x One SL, and a Sub. Wondering if there is any dramatic differences.
Curious if anyone has gone from a Beam to an Arc?

I went from beam to the arc and the difference is dramatic. Really no comparison and well worth the upgrade IMO. Move your beam to another TV.

Yep, went from a Beam and pair of Play:1’s to an Arc (and the Play:1’s). It’s a really nice, substantial, improvement. Soundstage is much wider, movies and music sound even better.

Question here, and I did post this on another thread:
I have an Office / man cave I just ordered a 65” Samsung tv (had a $800 Dell credit that was about to expire). Somewhat small room, not tiny, nothing like a living room.
I’ve had my arc, sub, and 2 SL’s in the living room for about a month now and love it. So, I am looking at a Beam, kind of thinking of maybe a beam + sub.
Your comment makes me question...I wouldn’t want to spend the money on a sub + arc, but I am wondering...Arc OR Beam + sub?

Beam + Sub. Arc alone is good but the sub is life changing.

I know the sub was life changing on the arc...I could see myself buying the sub within a few months if I got the Arc...but I know if I got the Beam, I’d just order them together.

You really notice the extra width. Suddenly you can actually hear left & right being where they should be.
