The sound box is shaped like a box rather than a bar but I have it well disguised. One feature is the sky Q auto equaliser that works really well for speech enhancement and for Footy the commentators are much clearer over the crowd noise (if any) than before. The bass is really good without being over powering. Probably due to the weight of the thing. was reading reviews about it for a while last night, cannot work out where to put it if I buy one. How have you disguised it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FindernRam Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I have a 3 layer corner glass stand: TV on top, blu-ray and Sky Q in middle, soundbox bottom towards back (in the dark effectively). 'er-indoors has some ornaments and grandkids pictures towards front. Doesn't affect sound at all, and you cant tell its not coming out of the TV.

David Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Skybox looks a bit dumpy looking for my liking. Best thing about ordering online is you can have a play then return it if it's not what you was hoping for. No wonder retail stores are struggling when you have better rights online.

But being black it does hide well in my set up. Actually better for me than a bar which would probably been more visible (higher authority would object) and still need a sub (maybe bigger than the soundbox). I'm not an audiophile but the sound is really good for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ketteringram Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Re the Sonos Beam, will this work with an older tv? Not sure how old, but it's at least 7 years. I have two Sonos play ones, and would like to connect the tv to those, then I wouldn't bother with the beam, but I don't think that's possible. If I buy the beam, do you think it would work, connected to the tv with hdmi? I'm not sure what hdmi arc is, but assume it's newer than my tv.

It comes with an audio adapter in the box, so you should fine as long as you have an optical input. https://en.community.sonos.com/announcements-228985/sonos-beam-now-available-setup-and-useful-information-6809808 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be a good excuse to update the TV :), before going for the beam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
