Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Beam (Gen 2)'s unmatched sound quality, ease of use, and convenient size. Many find the setup process to be super easy and enjoy the great bass and slim design. However, some customers have reported connectivity issues, while others feel the volume could be improved and that the Dolby Atmos feature may not perform as expected. A few customers also mentioned the product being pricey.

    It will suffice... I'd hoped it would do a better job enhancing voices. I had to call SONOS support with install and level one was NO help. Level two quickly helped.

    For the price you're paying, I was really hoping for better sound quality, but this was just alright in my experience. Also, if you want to download an app and give access to your location data and other information just to use a soundbar, this is the soundbar for you.

    Sonos requires that that you down load their soundbar app onto your cell phone. Then the soundbar can be set up using Wi-Fi to connect to TV. Why??? Anyway, I contacted Sonos and spoke with a rep who could not down load the app either. Very frustrating. Returned the soundbar.

    The demo in the store made it seem like this soundbar would make a huge difference in the sound on the tv we purchased. Well, it did not. Our tv had great sound and we did not hear anything strange or tinny as the tech described so we returned it.

    "Plug & Play".. not even close!

    Complete Junk! I would never purchase another "Plug In" speaker product that will not work unless you install an app that needs a username, password, my precise location, access to my WiFi, or any personal contact or location information. AFTER doing all of that it will still not connect and will not reset. There is no sound coming out of it at all. There is 1 power cord and 1 hdmi cord and I tried multiple ones. I now have a $500.00 paper weight or door stop. I have a better idea, buy something that plugs in and just works. Period. Now I get to go through an entire run around on how to fix this garbage. And since it was purchased through the Magnolia Center it is NOT covered under the Best Buy Total Geek Squad protection plan. Or at least my last purchase wasn't. In this day and age when prices on everything are sky high the last thing I need is to be ripped off buy garbage products. I don't see how I could have done anything wrong. I plugged it in (very simple) and have now been trying to get it to work for the last 2 1/2 hours. There is absolutely no one in their right mind that would say this is normal or that it works better this way. It is now 1-1-2024 and it was purchased on 9-19-2023. I should have tried to set it up right away but that should not matter at all. Any body have any suggestions on what to do next?

    Product broke within 30 days. Installation was excellent especially the Geek squad Best Buy replaced the product and I appreciate that. Both installation teams were excellent. Attitudes and skills superlative. Kudos Geek Squad.
