The differences between the gen 1 and gen 2 are marginal - at best. There are no up-firing drivers so it's Atmos in name only. Gen 2 probably has slightly better voice clarity on the center channel but unless you have heard both of them one after the other you would't be able to tell. You can pretty much get this refurbished gen 1 and the surrounds for the same price as the gen 2 - which seems like a no-brainer to me. It's what I would have done if this deal had been available when I got mine.

Don't sign in, it's glitched if you do.
The upgrade is only for a select few products that are new, if you click the original upgrade email it takes you to the eligible products.

Joking aside I thought my Vizio was good enough. Now it's downgraded to my shop speaker lol

I have the beam mounted on my wall in my bedroom and the sound clarity is very clear without the speech enhancement turned on and the bass is surprising for its size. I have an arc in my open concept living room but it's mounted under my TV on an arm. I have to use the speech enchantment on some movies because unless I put it up loud the voice gets drowned out. It almost sounds like there's an echo chamber happening behind the arc and tv. The placement of these products seem to make a big difference which is why my beam is sounding almost better than my Arc.
I may pull the arc off the tv mount and mount it directly to the wall to kill any reverb and enhance the bass that comes out of it.
Is this for Capital One credit cards only?
I have a checking account and don't see any offers anywhere.
