Great sounds quality, but requires dealing with lip sync

I'm quite satisfied with the sound quality and the surround capabilities of the Bean (Gen 2). However, out of the box the lip sync with my Samsung The Frame TV, with the Beam plugged to the eArc, was quite bad. The setting in the Sonos app was unable to get it fixed, but the setting in the TV allowed me to get rid of the issue after quite some time and a bunch of trial and error. In this day and age, you would expect for example that Sonos releases a smartphone tool which automatically does the sync, using the phone camera and the phone microphone.
We love our Beams 2 our Move 2 and our mini sub. The ease of set up is so easy. They all souyamazing on there own but them when you put them together it's wow!!
Pros: Dolby Digital 5.1, Easy To Setup, Easy to use, Speech enhancement, Superior Sound, Versatile, Wireless Surround Sound
Unbelievable sound with such clarity. Tied together with Sony TV, apple TV, and cable box works efficiently. Still learning to use and find the best settings. With my hearing deficit and despite state of the art hearing aides plus the Sonos sound bar I still find voice clarity challenging at times.
Pros: Speech enhancement, Superior Sound, Wireless Surround Sound
Would be great to have a quick start guide. Did finally stumble on to what I needed and from then on it was flawless. On line help was so-so in knowledge.
