    The soundbar sounds great and looks really nice. The base does lack a little bit of a punch but the sounds clarity is top notch. My only issue was the connectivity, as the sounds sometimes drops all of a sudden. Since the connection is over wi-fi, perhaps that might be a wi-fi issue at home. But overall a definite recommend.

    Great product. Really fills the entire room with sound, just enough bass without a sub. I paired with 2 era 100s to really get a great surround sound! Easily connects to tv and Bluetooth for streaming music, great product!

    I have been an avid bose fan for 25 years and unfortunately the quailtiy that bose is known for is no longer there. When it worked, it was awesome. But every time u turned off the tv it lost connection and had to be set up again on a daily basis. Well, took thay back and bought sonos. I must say the connection process is a breeze and it hasnt lost connection one time. But to me, the bose still sounds better and louder. Which is very important when using outside. Just unfortunately will not stay connected but the fact that sonos was so simple to set up and does sound amazing for movies just lacks when playing music, i will definitely be keeping. Just think it was somewhat over priced for the sound quailty.

    Great surround solution for the money especially if you can’t install rear channel speakers. Dolby Atmos is very impressive but regular 5 channel is good as well.

    Incredible sound bar for a great price! Night mode and voice enhancement work extremely well. Good bass considering no subwoofer. Atmos works well without additional speakers. Obviously, you can add rear surrounds and a mini sub woofer, but not needed unless you like to shake the walls with booming sound (I hate that).

    A Noce First Step on Sonos Journey

    I love my Beam 2! I originally purchased it for voice clarity because my hubby like to turn the volume WAY UP when we watch TV. It made a big difference in the volume he required and the bonus is that I have the app on my phone and if he turns the TV up too loud for me, I can tap it down to a reasonable level while staying under the radar. Of course this was the first step on starting to put a Sonos system together! Once I saw how nice music sounded on the Beam, I added a mini sub and then a couple of Era 100s for a nice surround system. I’m already planning to add a few more pieces to push music around the house. I wish it were a bit let pricey, but I love it. Another plus is that is easy to set up and configure.

    I recently upgraded to the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) - Black, and it's been a fantastic addition to my home entertainment system. Here are some of the highlights: Sound Quality: The audio is crystal clear, with rich bass and excellent mids and highs. It's perfect for movies, music, and even gaming. Compact Design: The sleek, compact design fits perfectly in front of my TV without blocking the screen. It blends in seamlessly with my home decor. Easy Setup: Setting up the Beam was a breeze. The Sonos app guided me through the process, and I had it up and running in no time. Smart Features: I love the built-in voice control with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. It's incredibly convenient to control the TV and other smart home devices with just my voice. Expandable: The Beam integrates effortlessly with other Sonos speakers. I've added a couple of Sonos Ones for a full surround sound experience, and the system works flawlessly. Overall, the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) delivers on all fronts – sound quality, design, and smart features. It's a great investment for anyone looking to enhance their home audio experience. Highly recommended!
