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.

Where have you seen a Playbar gen 1 for $360?
So what I'm gathering here is that gen 1 vs gen 2 beam is not worth it ?
What if I could get the gen 2 beam for $375
I was suggesting that a gen1 + the surrounds for a similar price to the gen2 on its own was the better system but the gen2 is the marginally better device.
Still, it is a good deal, I might ...
What I'm trying to say is I think you'll do better when it's mounted on the wall. Also if you don't have the sub yet, get it so the Arc's drivers don't have to do the heavy bass lifting - which will also improve your echo situation.

I have no problems hearing anyone speak or wishing voices were more clear. Sounds natural to me (over the higher end format).

Depends heavily on your room. Although it seems, to me at least, to matter less with the Sonos sub than most traditional subs. I have mine with the port facing the listening area next to my TV stand and it sounds great. But the good thing, since it's wireless, you can move it around your room til you find the place that sounds best. All you need is a power outlet!
