Notexactly sure what I expected from Beam/Atmos but somewhat disappointed.... Connected via eARC to latest LG OLED. Sonos App shows "Atmos Content" (Prime, Netflix Premium) connected. TruePlay calibrated. Use area is approx 20 by 14 w/sloping 19->12 foot ceilings, listening 10 foot front-center from Beam.

Another good test is the film Roma on Netflix. At around the 1:03:25 mark, you should hear the trees burning/crackling above you for the next couple of minutes. Be sure you are playing the original Spanish language audio track.


I recently tested the Beam gen2 Atmos setup, and I must say I had mixed emotions about it. I tried a few different methods to get the best demo and determine its capabilities. One approach I found effective was treating it like a 5.1 system, where I emphasized the different speakers (LF, RF, LR, RR, C, SW). This helped to create a more immersive experience.


I also experimented with specific known "Height" points in Atmos content. While the Sonos App indicated "Atmos Content" when connected to Prime and Netflix Premium through eARC on my LG OLED, I was somewhat disappointed with the overall result.


Maybe consider adding Era-300 speakers as surrounds to the Beam Gen2, they really do help provide immersive Atmos surround sound. Those Sonos surrounds, together with a Sub (gen3) really do sound fantastic in our Dining Room.


Your best option is playing this 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos Test Tones MP4 video. Download it onto a USB flash drive and plug it into your TV or AirPlay it from an iOS device to a Roku Ultra or Apple TV 4K connected to your TV. If you AirPlay the video, check the Sonos app to confirm it is playing in Dolby Atmos:


That said, I can see where test tones could be helpful in making sure the rear and height channel volumes are set the way you want them. Not sure if setting volume levels this way would translating into better sound when all the channels are playing though.


I was thinking about that right after I posted. Good point. A test track still may not be terribly helpful since the Arc has a lot more amps and speakers in it then the channels it supports. Some channels split between woofers and tweeters.. And the issue could be amp, not speaker.


This offering provides a single individual application to the Dolby Vision Certification test. This test is designed to verify that you are familiar with the Dolby Vision process and applying the tools and techniques required to create Dolby Vision content for home entertainment.




As a pre-requisite to this test, you should already have in-depth knowledge about creating Dolby Vision content on color grading systems and be familiar with the Dolby Vision Professional tools. This knowledge may have been gained through experience in creating Dolby Vision content, or through training, or both. Prior to taking the test, Dolby recommends that you have completed Dolby Vision training either through the instructor-led training available for purchase on this site, or through the self-guided training available at Dolby Vision Post-Production Learning*.


After purchase, you will receive details on how to access the online multiple-choice test, the HDR video file, and instructions to complete the practical test. A completed Dolby Vision IMF with appropriate metadata will need to be sent to Dolby for verification. Access to a supported Dolby Vision color grading or mastering system will be required to create the Dolby Vision IMF. Please contact us with your order number should you need access to a temporary Dolby Vision License.


In order to gain Dolby Vision certification, it is necessary to pass the online test with a result of 85% or higher and to submit a valid Dolby Vision IMF following the necessary steps to the satisfaction of Dolby. The purchase of each application allows for submission of the online test and the Dolby Vision IMF, with up to one resubmission included. Further resubmissions will require the purchase of an additional application to the test. For full details, see the Terms and Conditions.
