How the Sonos Arc Wall Mount changes the sound of your soundbar
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 вер 2020
- The long awaited Sonos Arc Wallmount test. A lot of viewers have asked about the Sonos Arc original wall mount and how it affects sound from the Sonos Arc. The original mount has a precisely placed magnet that will activate the Sonos Arc into altering the EQ to reduce resonance from the wall when it is being used. Today’s video will focus exactly on how the sound is changed. You can then view the demo recordings and decide for yourself if it is the correct wall mount to get. Or you can buy the alternative that I am recommending which doesn’t alter the sound output.

I’ve watched every single one of your videos and you’re a god damn saint. You always go the distance with extreme details. Thank you, Peter!
Thank you Henry!
I appreciate your efforts on making all this videos Peter , keep it coming. 👍🏼
Well done Peter, another useful and informative video, you have confirmed what my own ears were telling me!
I was an early adopter of an arc with wall mount, although I mounted the arc under my tv with a sound bar tv bracket combined with the arc bracket because I liked the invisible bracket and secure mounting but easy to lift off the arc speaker the arc bracket provided. Plus there were no other bracket manufacturers producing a bracket at that time. As my arc is not mounted against a wall I didn’t want the reduction in volume and frequency so I removed the magnet from the bracket, and the sound to me was much much better
For those who wish to do the same this is very easy to do as the magnet is easily located on the right side of the bracket, I used a hole punch slightly lather than the magnet to cleanly cut the foam from one side, the magnet can then easily be removed as it’s only lightly glued in place, I than replaced the foam cut out, to keep it nice and tidy, and saved the magnet for use another day in case I change my installation set up
This post should be pinned!
Many thanks Mark! Great to know how easy the magnet mod is.
@@jimjam623
No problem Hamish, glad the info was of use to you
Do you know if the magnet is on the extendable Sonos arc mount too?
@@malcolmharrington4582
I don’t think the extendable mount is manufactured by Sonos, so although I’m not certain, I would very much doubt there is a magnet in the bracket
Hi Peter. Fellow Singaporean here. Found your channel by chance. Learned so much about Sonos. Thanks . Getting my arc soon. Have the old soundbar but time for Dolby Atmos with my sub and 2 Ones.
Thank you for the video. I had heard/seen it before too. I agree that the volume does reduces with the wall moint, however I felt the clarity of the voice improved. Probably because it reduces the interference from the wall. I'm not an expert, infact I learnt a lot from your videos. This is just my two bits to your excellent scientific evaluation. Thank you
I finally, after several years, had both my tv and the Arc wall mounted. Wow! Such a better sound. I agree. Clearer. More defined. I am using the Sonos wall mount. I have Sub and Play 1s as well.
LOL you are so right on the heavy comments - I could not believe how heavy the Arc is compared to all my prior sound bars - just proves they didn't cut corners I guess - either that or it's got led weights in it! Really appreciate how much effort you put into this, amazing work! Not sure what your background is, but you speak like you have significant engineering experience.
For me, my Arc has to mount above a gas fireplace with only a very narrow mantle, so I have no choice to use it. I'll update this comment for my thoughts on how it works out as it's currently sitting waiting for me to install it - if I have problems with bass response I will temporarily steal my sub mini from the other media room (beam + sub mini + 2 SL's) , which hardly gets used anymore (kids have moved on), until I my budget (i.e. the wife) allows me a full sized sub for the big media room - but either way I'll let you know.
Idk why but I seriously love your voice for some reason lol. Maybe it’s the way you speak and you sound so matter of fact and very wise.
I installed the Arc along this mount today, but I’ve yet to set it up and listen. The sub is expected to arrive at the end of the month. These are my first Sonos products and I’m so happy to have found your channel. I’ve subscribed and I’m watching all of your great content.
The sound was noticeably more resolved with the mount. Thank you!
Oh! Can you clarify what it means by being more resolved? As in you hear more details?
Peter Pee Hi Peter - Please keep in mind that my comment is based on listing to each sample via my AirPods Pro. So, it’s only based on this.
That said, there was better clarity in both the spoken words and the sounds overall. It seemed to have a better representation of details, whereas without the mount sample seemed a bit muddy almost boomy sounding.
Now, it was not night and day, but to me it was definitely present.
Today, I will be watching your TruPlay video and setting everything up 😀
Thanks again for you enthusiasm and great work! 🙏🏽
I see! Ok. That’s a good observation. In reality, that’s exactly what Sonos is trying to do. Reduce the resonance! Very cool.
But you have correctly pointed out the difference for airpods. AirPods Pro prioritises and emphasises voice. So that could also be an effect.
Peter Pee This afternoon I finished the setup and Truplay tuning and watched some 4K content and listened to some music and I was not disappointed. The midrange on the Arc was particularly sweet and well emphasized. The bass response was respectable, so I imagine that once my sub arrives the whole system should really shine. 😀
Oh yes. If you find the bass respectable now, you’ll be blown away when the sub comes. And you’d wish you can have two subs.
Your the best, answered my question to the TEE! Subscribed
Sonos system is just fine. Peter your videos are good source and provides great insight. People are drawing negative feedback on how to position the speakers it’s just amazing.
Keep in mind if you have a box living room with height ceiling of minus 8” feet you will get best sound quality.
However if you have a Great Room or angle room with 10” plus tall ceiling and open concept then bring your system closer.
Ex: arc front sub gen 2 - 4 feet from arc then your Ones behind from your seating area. The same way most of the videos are shown.
Just my thought
Thanks for sharing here Alex! You brought up the important concept of sound energy. It’s inversely proportional to the distance. If you need more perceived power and loudness, yes, bring the speakers closer or your ears nearer!
Peter Pee I just seen another video where it’s show casing HDFury Arcana (marketed towards Sonos user).
In case your TV doesn’t have Earc to produce Dolby Atmos.
What you think
Peter Pee HDRFury Arcana will bring Dolby Atmos to your non Earc TV. Research that one.
I can’t comment on that beyond what you are reading. I haven’t tested it myself.
Awesome review with just enough detail, delivered quickly!
Super review Peter, especially the audio tracks - many thanks! Quite surprising just how easily the difference could be heard using only laptop. Then again 6dB is equivalent to 2x change in listening distance. Mark Hobson's comment - to remove the magnet from the Sonos bracket seems well worth pinning.
Thank you very much for this video Peter! In my setup I must wall mount the ARC and I was very curious on the results. Not anymore thanks to you! After the video I'm considering fabricate a bracket myself, so I can even take in account the angle of the top speakers for the best ATMOS results. Thanks again my friend!
That sounds like a project! Which gets me thinking... if I can design a bracket to mount the arc and enable different angles....
ever since I saw you talking about how to tilt your Arc to account for different LMP distances, I've wondered why you don't put on your trigonometry hat and work out a formula based on ceiling height and LMP distance. And after noticing your piece on wall mount effect on Sonos performance,I have to urge you to do a piece on TV MOUNT Sonos! Your DIY "dead-reckoning" guesstimate could be transformed into another "game-changer", thanks to the tilt-up/down "fine-tuning "capability of many wall mounts! >I'd be excited to hear your thoughts; I've got a Perlesmith fully adjustable corner mounted (Sanos) Arc (48"height) ,with a 9' ceiling and a 10' LMP that I'd be only too happy to have you use as an example!! I've been "Sonosified" since the first time I caught one of your videos; you're like a Carl Sagan/Mr. Rogers/ Pied Piper hybrid! Arc, Gen2 sub, Gen2 Beam, & Mini... all with you to blame/ thank for it!✌️ Captain Kirk
I’m still waiting on my arc it’s been about a month; Soundbar still on backorder 😢. Dope video
I really hope all you guys waiting on the arc gets it soon. It’s a terrible feeling waiting for it I know.
Hi Peter, great video as always. I have two comments to add...
1. You question why the magnet when Truplay could be used? My thought is that Truplay is definitely the icing on the cake, but only available if you have an iOS device. It is not supported on Android. Therefore if you are not able to use Truplay (i.e. only use Android) the frequency response is corrected by default.
2. There is a lot of emphasis from Sonos about putting the ARC below the screen for the best Atmos effect. While I agree, I too was concerned about this, as with our wall arrangement it was not really practical. At this time my TV does not allow the benefit of passing through Atmos, so we are only listening in 5.1. I experimented with mounting the ARC above the screen, about 55cm from the ceiling, and 250cm from the listening position. With the standard EQ it did sound a little strange, however after Truplay tuning everything sounds great. Now I may need to change the location if and when we change the TV, however I have the feeling it will still sound fairly good.
I don't know if Truplay tuning does anything toward balancing the upward facing speaker elements, but certainly I have the feeling something more than just frequency EQ happened. Maybe you could look into this more sometime.
Best regards.
Peter, great video answered my questions about on-wall-mounted Arc, I would suggest that one might build their own brackets using the screw holes in the Arc itself to accomplish the hidden bracket effect while accomplishing the better sound effect. Thank You again for your informative video and the detail
I have the Beam gen 2 and placement makes a huge difference, probably because of the rear bass radiator. My tv unit is open at the back, so allows the bass to pass behind the tv and reverberate off the wall, I imagine. If I place the bar at the foot of the tv you lose a lot of the bass and the sound is a lot less full. I was thinking of getting a sub mini but with it placed as it is you really dont need one, I have the Bass on the EQ set to 0
Great and informative video, I’m enjoying your Sonos videos, I just ordered mine. Thank you
You are the man Peter!
Thanks for your support!
Learnt a lot from this. Peter covers the subject very well especially if your tv is over a cabinet as in my front room tv. However
I'm about to install a new oled tv and arc in my back room over a redundant open fireplace so no other option but to wall mount the sound bar. Anyhow it would seem I should get a good result. Fingers crossed though.
Great video thanks for your help again I have the arc and was wondering about wall mounted it
I don't have my Arc wall mounted. I did put the Arc on Clutch CL-DMS250 adjustable height PC speakers stands I can angle down a few degrees. I'm hoping the Atmos effect bouncing off the 9 foot ceilings will reach further back into the room to my couch seating position 16-18 feet back.
To good information, i posted your UA-cam on sonos community. Hope they accept you and hear more about you
Thank you Ibo! I appreciate your help and support!
You sound do a review on the new Sanus Arc TV Mount!
Thank you again! Interestingly there's a mount on ebay that's a clone of the Sonos mount, minus the magnets and obviously cheaper. I think I'll just leave mine on the unit for now.
Oh! Hmmm... let me seek that out.
Peter, thanks for another great video with simple, clear facts to help us understand what is happening. Have you measured the impact of the wall mount when the Arc is already paired with the Sub? You noted in another video that the Arc reduces its bass output when the Sub is present. I am curious if the wall mount does anything more than what you already measured with the Sub pairing or if the Sub actually increases its output to compensate for the wall mount.
I second this. Would be nice to see a video on this Peter, as i have a wall mounted arc paired with sub watching this video is dissapointing for me.
That’s a good point. I didn’t think of that. Thanks for pointing it out. Without going into the actual testing for now, I’d say that the sub can’t cover past 110hz anyway so the impact of the wall mount at 100hz-500hz won’t be covered by the sub.
@@PeterPee Thanks, I'll wait (yes, patiently) for your test results. With all of the software features that Sonos deploys, I wouldn't be surprised if the the curve of the wall mount adjustment is different when the Sub is added vs. when the Arc is working solo. I also wouldn't be surprised if the Sonos team are looking at your videos and seeing what they need to address. It seems like they responded to the Arc bass issue you called out.
Thank you all for your support! And is Sonos is listening.... “multi Trueplay profile support”!!!
Yes I would love to know the results of that test as well, if it lowers it dramatically I’m going to try to remove the magnet from the sonos mount.
Great info! Thank you !
Great video
Thanks!
Thanks Bill!
Great work!!
I think the biggest issue with this test is that without it wall-mounted you can’t see the curve. If you would actually wall-mount it and measure I would be curious to see how the correction does. Good point about truplay though, you would think that’s exactly what It should be doing is correcting that
Yeah, I agree. So I tried to normalise all the factors and placed them in the exact same location. You can take it as a relative comparison.
You didnt say anything about this:
What happens if you use the arc wallmount then use the trueplay to correct the EQ that happens with the wallmount?
Does it work or is the EQ curve still affected?
I really like your videos! Thanks for all your advices Peter! Can you share a link to the atmos demo... and how to play /test it on our arc? Thanks again!
thedigitaltheater.com/dolby-trailers/
Here you go! Just put in on a usb drive and plug into your tv to playback! Assuming you have a video player on the tv that will read a drive on the usb port.
I wonder if the magnet can just be drilled out. Not a big fan of the hooks that can be seen, although I do like the price.
Exactly what I was thinking, shouldn’t be too difficult.
Does it matter if you linked it to the sub?
hi! I was looking to install the Sonos sound bar close to the bottom of my tv (less than 1 inch) I understand Sonos recommend 5 inches clearance. However, I have a wall mounted LG GX oled tv, that sits flush against the wall, with the panel only protruding at 2 cm away from the wall. Given the tv supports Dolby atmos & eARC and the speaker grills on the Sonos start a few cm away from the rear of the sound bar (I’m wall mounting the arc). I’m not expecting the tv to interfere with the upward firing speakers.
I just wanted to get your opinion on this, do you feel my thinking is correct? I would really appreciate your response, thanks in advance!
Hi Peter, another great video however I have a question for you. What do you think about the Sanus Extendable wall mount for the ARC? I need to move the sound bar out from the wall about 2 to 3 inches in order for it to be effective but after watching your tests, I am a bit concerned if that is an appropriate wall mount option and if this is the best location. Supposedly Sanus developed the wall mount with SONOS so I don’t know if it has the magnet built in. I would love to get your opinion on this wall mount. Thanks and keep the videos coming.
I am not familiar with that Wall mount. In general Sanus makes great products with some thought behind it. But I am pretty sure there is no magnet in the mount.
Have you done any testing with the wall mount and a complete surround system? Or with a Sub Gen 3/Mini connected? Since the bass is reduced wouldn’t it be less noticeable if you’ve got a sub connected?
Great tips...
Can you see if you can remove the magnet? I have the mount and I’m thinking of removing the magnet but I don’t know if it’s possible. Thank you for the great video 👍!!
Yeah i had some suggestions to do that. I’ll get round to it when i have some time!
what about using some sort of sheilding or cutting the magnetic bit off
Hi Peter, can you do a video comparing the placement of the surround speakers? Per your advise, I have upgraded to the 5’s. I am trying to determine if the best placement of the rear channels is behind the seating chairs or placing them to the side (90 degree), so they are pointed at my ears. What do you think, especially when playing movies with Atmos sound?
Yeah I will. I’ve gotten a lot of requests for that but the video queue keeps building up. I’ll get to it soon enough!
Any discussion about how far below the TV as the best position?
What happens when u mount the Sonos ARC directly under the tv with a „Mounting Dream Soundbar Mount“?
The top of the bar may be blocked and Atmos signals will be blocked from bouncing off your ceiling.
Thank you, Peter! Peter, what do you think of the SANUS Extendable Soundbar Wall Mount Designed for Sonos Arc Sound bar? Is this a mount that you would recommend? Thank you!
Yet another well informative video Peter! If you have a sub G2, play 3 rears and the Arc wall mounted but managed to remove the magnetic, will the arc’s sound still be effected or is it just the arc alone that would make a difference?? As for the true play not able to adjust if it were wall mounted is because i think it will be difficult for trueplay alone to detect if it is or isn’t wall mounted. It would be great if in the S2 app you could turn on or off the wall mount detection. Sonos if your reading this please implement this on your next update as would save everyone having the hassle to remove the magnet to see if they prefer it with or without. Pete maybe if you do another video regarding this to suggest implementing having the option in the S2 app and see if they do it as they seemed to have done a update which made the arc sound better, I think I recall you raised an issue in one of your earlier videos about the arc’s sound and they then later updated it to 12.0.5 and the app 12.0.6 which improved the sound of the arc.
Yes thanks for the suggestion Dave. I did raise it as an issue. Or rather, an option for Sonos to consider allowing it as a setting within the s2 app.
Hi Peter! I have a question... In another video you said that the Sonos Arc needs an angle to engance athoms tech, there a way to get that angle with this wallmount?
I just got a second Arc for the bedroom TV and i was debating between this mount and the Sanus WSSATM1-B2 mount. The Sanus mount actually mounts to the TV wall mount and brings the arc forward and slightly infront of the bottom edge of the TV. I was thinking that would help with the sound of the upward firing speakers. What do you think?
If you have the space in front of the TV, it's worth a shot. I am assuming that the flushed to wall mounting means that the bottom of your TV is blocking the top firing speakers?
Question, were you happy with The Sanus mount? I was also worried about top speakers being blocked. Is there way that you can use the same mount and have the speaker on the top of the TV? I know you usually don’t see it that way but is it possible? Thanks
@@birdsnest7883 I'm happy with the mount i don't think it would be possible to put it above the TV. You also wouldn't want to put the speaker that high, especially for the best Atmos experience.
@@XAnonymousGuyX1 Thank you!
Hi Peter, thanks for your great videos. I am just curious if your magnet moving recommendations also apply to an Arc Wall mounted system that includes the Sub as well?
Less of an impact when the Sub is paired. The lower frequencies are taken away from the Arc when the Sub is paired.
Hi Peter great job on the Video! I have a question for you, how necessary do you think the sub is to the sound quality of the sonos arc ?
If funds are available, they are phenomenal.
Thanks Peter. I’m currently going through all your videos. I’ll probably have a look at your patreon cause yes your videos are very useful.
One question: what about wall mount effect when there is a sub attached?
Thanks again.
Francois
Hi Francois, love your name. :) With a sub, the effect of the wall mount is more or less erased. The Arc won't be playing that low in the first place.
@@PeterPee Hi Peter! Thank you so much for this video, it's really enlightening. I do currently have a Sonos setup with a Beam, Sub, and two Play:1 for surround. I will be getting the Arc and want to wall mount it, but this EQ change leaves me a bit scared to do it. You said above that the effect is more or less erased with the sub, but will it still affect dialogue volume? I'm definitely concerned about that, since I already have that problem with the Beam sometimes.
@@crawlingvx curious if you found out the answer to your question.
@@gibstr To be honest, I didn't found out myself. I just reversed the magnet when the wall mount arrived, as it wasn't very difficult to do as opposed to having go through the entire process after it was wall mounted if it did affect dialogue volume, or just sound bad in general.
So then the question is what is the effect of Trueplay on an Arc with the official Sonos wallmount?
Or should we request a mid-tones slider in the EQ to bump voices?
Perhaps you should make a tutorial where you drill out the magnet to get good sound AND solid and esthetical mount?
You raised two questions which I am planning a video for now. Thanks Maurice! I’ll get to that after I am done testing.
Thanks for your video Peter, do you think with the beam the sound will change too ? Cheers !
The beam doesn’t have that feature of auto eq on detection of wall mount so it won’t change based on that. The sound might change because of the fact that it’s wall mounted though not because it detects that it’s wall mounted.
Hi Peter, I have a question - is there a gap between the wall mount and the back of the arc when mounted, or is it flush? I have an aftermarket mount as the official product is sold out, but there is a gap when mounted :/ Thanks!
There is no gap between the mount and the arc for the original.
Hey Peter! Given my room configuration I have to turn my tv 90 degrees from the wall during use. Is the Sonos arc able to be mounted directly to a 65 inch LG CX?
You can check out a flexson mount for the Sonos arc. It piggy backs on the vesa mount so it will move with your tv.
Hey Peter , v nice video!!
Can we do a work ard for this if i want a sonos mount yet doesnt want the reduced bass?
Maybe slot a thin rubber or something behind to block the magnet so the mount womt detect?
I was going to figure out how to cut it out. But you gave me a thought... maybe let me try one of those tin or aluminium foil!
Do you know if this is still the case today in January 2023?
Great video. I removed the magnet from the mount before wall mounting. How do I know if the EQ function is disabled?
It doesn't say anywhere in the app at all.
@@PeterPee ok, so I would have to put it back in and listen then remove to see if there’s a sound difference. Thanks.
Hey peter, what if you did the ikea symfonisk sub hack? Since it is not the Sonos sub connected, the arc will still use its woofers for bass. In this case, would you put the magnet to reduce the bass coming from the arc?
Yes, there could be many reasons why you would want to reduce the bass. Sometimes the wall is lending too much reinforcement to the bass. And sometimes, if you prefer the bass to come from a sub, you want to drop the bass on the arc itself. I have not personally tried the IKEA symfornisk sub hack, but if you have done that, then yes, the Arc will not crossover the bass to the sub and you might want to reduce the bass with the magnet put back.
I’m not a big fan of the pricing that Sonos stiffs us with concerning speaker stands and mounting kits. If you’re paying 250 bucks for a sonos 1, is it really feasible to spend 150 more just to put it on a stand? As far as the magnet is concerned….Why would Sonos reduce the base output on a product that totally lacks base output already?
It’s to reduce the resonance that it will get when the bass is reinforced against the wall that the arc is mounted to.
Nice video very informative I have the arc sub and two play ones setup for my new home I can’t wait to set it up and I can def tell the difference between the wall mount. Thanks for this video because Best Buy recommended I get the Sonos wall mount I think I’ll go with your second option to save my bass!
Best Buy would recommend you get 2 wall mounts even if you don’t need them. In fact they’d sell you 10 if you so much as hint that you’re considering that.
Don’t be pushed into buying by sales persons. They only have one objective. And that’s not to help you save money.
@@PeterPee Fax!!
What RGB light are you using for the red and blue in your videos?
They are Xiaomi light strips. :)
Hi there. I really enjoy your videos, very good at explaining things thank you. I have a question. I've read in a couple of places that the Sonos Arc does not support true surround sound when adding rear speakers. That is to say, that if you add the 2 rears, it just reenforces the stereo image from the front. I've never used Sonos products before but I'm thinking of purchasing the arc and 2 sonos 5s in the future for a really lovely fully bodied sound in the Room, plus a sub. Will this setup work and will the rear speakers act as true rear speakers? Thanks.
That’s not true. The surrounds will play surround tracks. Not just replicate from the front left and right channel. Play a surround track and it’s obvious. An arc with fives is a very potent combination. Not the most cost effective but a great system.
Its confusing because in another video you suggested having arc at an angle? How is it possible with wallmount
With wall mount you can't. It needs to be placed on a counter top or tv console for that to work.
Where can I get those Atmos demo videos? Would love to test it on my side.
here you go! thedigitaltheater.com/dolby-trailers/
@@PeterPee Also, with what did you play it? From a computer or how?
Mine was mounted backwards
What about if you remove the magnet from the bracket?? Cut out a small section of the rubber, remove the magnet and stick the rubber back..... Would you try that? I'm just curious because I'm getting my arc in a couple of weeks
Im thinking to take a hacksaw to mine and lop off the last bit of the mount
I read this and I was thinking about this the whole night... I am not sure if I want to do that. I need to study it a little more in detail and try to guess how they mounted the magnet. I wouldn't want to have to drill through the steel!
@@PeterPee you won't have to damage the metal at all. Just remove a small section of the rubber/foam, pry the magnet off then put the foam back. Worst case scenario is you stock the magnet back on. I pretty much used to work for Sonos and I can assure you the magnet won't be secured with anything that'll put up a fight.
Haha. Ok, let me try to figure that out!
@@PeterPee I will be doing exactly that when my arc arrives
hi Peter I am willing to buy Sonos arc.I am not interested in wall mounting.Is the sound quality good if I put on a table
Yes, it is fine. For the longest time it was on my projector shelf.
@@PeterPee great, thank you
@@PeterPee Peter what are the best settings for the Arc soundbar by itself. Located below my tv on a shelf in my living room, thank you
I am really confused between Sonos arc and Samsung q950a 🤔 which one to buy
Hi, I've also been in doubt. Finally saw in the store that the Samsung Bluetooth connection was lost. The firmware updates will also make the sonos last longer. Samsung will release a new version next season and this set will then be forgotten. Furthermore, I found the Samsung very ugly in real life.
Like ur videos. But you record your videos on the darker side. You need more light. Point being you always say that its not visible when you are showing us something on the item your reviewing.
Got it! Thanks for the feedback! I am doing something about it!
Will sonos detect a third party wall mount ?
No it won't. It uses a magnet to sense.
If you have an ultra short throw projector, then you're kinda forced to mount your arc on the wall
Cant you do bluesound pulse... review?
I did a short comparison before. I haven’t had time to circle back to a full review. I got it but I haven’t had much time to figure out the software. At first glance, a very capable piece of hardware and a robust software support.
The Asian Benicio Del Toro
I don’t understand how the wall mount makes such a difference in how it sounds when voices are present
They tuned the eq by detecting the magnet that is built in, which indicates that it is wall mounted, and the eq is changed to pull back that range.
Peter Pee Thank you for responding sir would that be made up for it by having to five in the rear and the sub?
I wouldn’t say it will be compensated. Every piece of a 5.1 or 5.1.2 system has a part to play. But give me a bit of time. I’m testing out the effect of the sub and whether it covers the arc with mount in any manner.
Peter Pee right on I’ll tune in no doubt
@@PeterPee can you just remove the magnet completely?
