so whoeverr is getting this at the good price point make sure to turn off auto updates.
I also have a 7.1 dedicated system in my larger family room - full Klipsch Reference Premier set up with towers, side and rear bookshelf, and a SVS PC-2000 Pro subwoofer.
Of course, the soundbar doesnt compare, at all, so dont bother trying to. Whether its volume, depth of sound, depth of bass, the soundbar cant reproduce any of that. But, this soundbar is still amazing.
I use the soundbar in our living room to watch OTA TV and streaming services. The bar does get really loud and even when loud its distortion-free and speech is really crisp. The system does a great job separating sound and moving it across the speakers so that, for example, something flying over your head and to the side you will clearly hear going past you and into the distance behind you.
As the other poster put it - Buy it (this is agreat price) and dont even think about it later.
Do download and use the Samsung app to gain finer control over system.
The way I see it, until they complain, I won't change anything, and if they say something, then I'll adjust.
This bar is *much* bigger and will play much louder, so neighbors should be considered if you live in an apartment or condo. These bars throw a ton of sound around the room, so having walls and ceilings to bounce the sound off are important. If you're in a large open room where the sound can't be "beamed" to the listener, you'll be missing out and likely be unhappy with changing out your system.
This is a great deal on a very well reviewed bar, but if you want to stay in the Sonos ecosystem you could always consider moving up to an Arc or Arc Ultra. Both of which would add a lot of the functionality this has but remaining in your home audio network. The Beam is by no means a bad bar, but it doesn't have dedicated up firing drivers like this and the Arc have, so any height effects that are in the audio will be far less pronounced as the Beam is "faking" them so to speak.
Now I'm tempted to pick this up anyway for the living room (open concept plan with kitchen and dining nook, approx 8' ceiling so might be ideal for this setup) and move my beam gen 2 to a room upstairs where the height effects dont matter as much. Only concern is my townhome shares a living room wall with a neighbor, so I would be paranoid about disturbing them.

You're welcome! 8' ceilings should be ideal for reflected height audio. The heights effects are not always super prevalent, so you have to be watching the right content to really get it to sound right, but when they're utilized properly they sound great. Though I'm probably telling you things you already know.
If it helps, these Samsung bars typically get cited for having weaker subs. Not bad, but some people want the walls rattling and these aren't designed for that. Thankfully with wireless subs you can place them where it makes the most sense, plus you can place it near your listening position and away from the wall where it might annoy the neighbor. I'd highly recommend watching Andrew Robinson's YouTube video review on this bar as he goes into a lot of detail about the strengths and weaknesses of it. Well worth the somewhat longish watch.
