On the subject of hiding wires for speakers... if you have an eARC HDMI enabled TV and a latest gen Apple TV you can use two HomePods or HomePod minis as wireless stereo speakers, which will be better than most sound bars and only require power cables.
I guess so! If I had know that earlier I prob would have skipped my Beam and surrounds and just got dual HomePod mini.
Fewer wires is always a winner IMO.
