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.

    Upon install and initial use, I loved this product. I use it for a bedroom TV paired with a Gen 3 sub and two ikea / Sonos lamps for a great surround sound setup. Works well for watching TV. Integrating with anything else like my local music library or using for alarms etc was taken away by new app update. Shame on Sonos.

    Wasted two hours to just make it connect to wifi so that I can use the app to make it work. Then it only worked for a while and the app lost it. Only stable connection with an ethernet cable. Sound quality is not what I expected, not bad but definitely not as good as I expect for the price. If you value sound quality per buck I don't recommend this, especially when I had such as difficult time with its app. I don't it's easy to use.

    Is not the same with a dedicated rear speaker. Buying a rear and subwoofer separate is to expensive than other competitors.

    The sound is louder and clearer, but it does skip sometimes and the bass seems to crack a bit. I'm not thrilled with this item. The app is not user friendly at all!!!

    Excellent choice for our bedroom TV. Even makes watching the morning news from bed more enjoyable. It’s also part of our whole home sound system with the Sonos app.

    Great little unit but wasn't loud enough for my use. Best suited for 50 inch tv's or smaller in medium or small rooms.
