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.

    This is a great soundbar. Sound is clean and crisp. Some people probably won’t need to add a subwoofer but I do enjoy the extra bass. I like that you can add to the system.

    Mainly been a BOSE guy my entire life, but liked the look, sound, and price of the Sonos in the store. Took it home, hooked it up, and was very pleasantly surprised at the sound the bar puts out. and, without the available satellite speakers, the bar was still throwing sounds behind us as we sat in front of the TV. Very cool!

    Bought one to go with my Xbox X Series and then another for the movie room. Super easy setup through the Sonos app and I can control the Beams from any room. The sound is loud, crisp and deep to the point I still don't feel the need to buy the subwoofer. Music sounds great also, especially with high-quality remastered songs. Lastly, the bar looks great aesthetically!

    Excellent sound quality for such a small package. There are cheaper options that offer Dolby Atmos and include a subwoofer and surround sound speakers. However, in my experience, the sound quality and ease of use do not compare. With the Beam, you have the option of adding a subwoofer and speakers if you choose. I personally am holding off until I am out of an apartment complex. In terms of sound, I found that I needed to tweak the stings a bit to get the sound that I wanted, but that was personal preference. The soundbar worked with my C1 flawlessly when plugged into the eARC port. My only criticism is that I sometimes find dialogue difficult to make out in movies, It is often drowned out a little bit by the score. However, reading other reviews, I think this can be solved by tweaking the settings a little bit more. Overall, the Beam is a fantastic soundbar in a small package, ideal for smallish rooms with a lot of expandability options. It is not perfect, but for the price and size you cannot go wrong.

    I have two of these in my house now. Vast improvement on TV speakers, add surrounds and it gets comments all the time. Subwoofer not needed, but considering for some added thump.

    We purchased this along with 2 Sonos One SLs to complete our basement entertainment space. The sound is great and is more than sufficient for our 500 SF basement! The sound is clear and sounds especially great with music and shows/movies that have Dolby atmos sound. We love that we can use the app to create different sound systems so that we can create different set ups for adding and removing other sonos speakers throughout the house. Another big win for us is that we can play music through the speakers via Wi-Fi instead of Bluetooth so if someone opens a video on their phone, it doesn’t interrupt the music through the speakers for everyone else.

    The SONOS sound bar is "better" than good, but not quite excellent. Flat screen TVs have poor sound, so adding this sound bar has certainly improved reviewing. But the cost of additional system speakers to enhance the audio seems excessive.

    We were a bit skeptical about such a small unit being able to hold its own in 500 plus square feet of open space in our new home. I cranked it up today for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Crisp tones and pounding bass made us feel like we had a custom surround sound system.

    I have a small (48 inch) TV on a narrow stand. This sound bar fits in the small space yet provides big sound. I'm a bit hard of hearing and can hear talking much better with this soundbar. I also got a Sonos sub woofer but to be honest this little bar has pretty good base on it's own.

    I’ve tried many other brands but none of them close to Sonos sound quality .I’m the person who watches lot of tv shows and voices so clear and I can understand every word.Watched a movie and I don’t think you need a sub ,bass is so strong.

    The Beam Gen 2 sounds great and has amazing clean sound from this small unit. You must have E-Arc to get Dolby Atmos if I’m correct. It does have great acoustic sound levels. High, mids, and lows. Paired it with a mini sub and I’m thrilled. Best sound for this price range. Easily connects to app.
