Sonos Beam vs Samsung HW-Q70R

Samsung HW-Q70R review

The acoustic beam function is based on a tuned resonating tube that directs sounds to the side and up to the ceiling. There are also three forward speakers, i.e. dialogs are reproduced by the center own speaker. When all these speakers are combined with a subwoofer, you get a multi-channel object sound. The HW-Q70R supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X in all variants except IMAX Enhanced DTS:X. Comparing Samsung HW-Q70R vs Sonos Beam it can’t be missed that Samsung has 3.1.2 configuration. At the same time Sonos boasts 3.0.

Sonos Beam review

Sonos calls Beam "the most advanced soundbar." The principle of operation of this unit is based on the direction of sound to the walls, with its subsequent reflection. The soundbar is equipped with two woofers for the center channel, one for the left and right stereo, and a tweeter. Also on the front of the Sonos Beam are two passive radiators and another on the back. Sonos Beam, for the first time for soundbars, combines HDMI and voice control. HDMI supports CEC technology.
