Customers are saying

Customers value the Beam (Gen 2) 5.0 Channel Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos for its unmatched sound quality, ease of use, and simple setup. The soundbar's compact size, impressive bass, and Dolby Atmos capabilities are also appreciated. However, some customers have reported occasional connectivity issues, and a few find the soundbar to be somewhat expensive and would prefer it to include a physical remote.

    gave as a Christmas gift and it was installed soon after. Cartoons for the grandson sound fine, but the true test was music and it really fills the room with a smooth clear sound.

    We were going to purchase the Bose, and I’m so glad we didn’t. The Sonos Beam 2nd Gen is so clear. The sound is excellent. This is the sound bar everyone should have.

    We have a new really thin TV with lousy sound. The BEAM fixed that. Now we can actually hear clearly what is being said and any background music or other sounds along the way.

    I am hard of hearing and the Sonos bar has exceptional clear voice qualities. I really like my Sonos. Even if the Google on it argues with my phone Google, it is a hoot.

    Doesn't work reliably

    When it works, it's fine. But--very often it doesn't work when I turn on the TV. I have to turn the TV off, then turn it back on again, and then usually the soundbar comes on and I have sound. I called Sonos and they told me how to reboot it. It worked for a day then started not working again, same problem. I expected more from this expensive item. Also, I would not recommend Best Buy to purchase a TV. The salesman told me the sound bar would fit under the TV and told me the TV would swivel on its stand. Both were incorrect, so I had to buy an additional stand from Geek Squad (which does the delivery and installation). Be aware that the sales people are not knowledgeable about the merchandise and check everything out yourself. Delivery slow--it took a full 3 weeks from the time I bought the TV and soundbar until it was delivered.
