How is the performance of Q600A? Does it support Atmos also?
I am getting a B&O Beosound Stage, still awaiting for it to arrive.
I read from T3 that the best Dolby Atmos sound bar will be the Samsung Q950T. Someone recommended this to me as well.
The wait was finally over. It took exactly one month for it to arrive.
The Beosound Stage:




It came with a HDMI ARC cable:

Love the minimalist design very much, as always:

My humble 1.0 home entertainment set-up, with the newly acquired Sony A8H 65" and VAIO SX12:

Re-watched the 2017 T2 Transpotting:

This unit doesn't come with a subwoofer, and will not be able to even support one as there is no subwoofer output. So, no nerve rumbling bass if you were expecting one. However, it does come with one 'invisible' subwoofer. This unit has 4 woofers in the 11 drivers set-up, with each independently driven by 50 watt amplifier, the bass produced by this unit is more than enough that you, or at least I, don't need an extra subwoofer for now. Without a subwoofer, it makes the set-up more cleaner and space saving, but my view might change 6 months down the road.
On top of that, I am really loving the Scandinavian clean minimalist design, especially the control buttons. Perhaps the best looking soundbar I've ever come across. It has a few other options to choose, from Kvadrat fabric to smoked oak but they will cost more. It supports bluetooth, Chromecast and Apple Airplay but it doesn't come with a remote control as all are done using the B&O app. You may, however, purchase a separate Beoremote One that will cost you around 2k.
Establishing a connection to the A8H using the supplied HDMI ARC cable was a breeze; the A8H recognised Beosound Stage straight away,with some basic set-up, and you were done. However, the real pain-in-the-arse was the initial set-up of the Beosound Stage. You need B&O and Google Home apps to do so, and there wasn't any proper instruction. I was having difficulty at first in playing sound from the TV. After some trial and error playing around both apps I finally found the way. Nonetheless I still can't find the trick to switch on the Beosound Stage whenever I switch on the TV; currently it has to be done separately using the app.
I just got this unit less than 24 hrs and I still have more to learn and explore its potential but overall I am quite impressed by its performance and design.
