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.

    Phenomenal! Very crisp sound. Bass is good but will be adding sub.

    After getting over the price and finally buying it, I’m glad that I did. Amazing sound and ease of setup has me thinking about upgrading to Sonos in more rooms.

    A lot of sound from a small sound bar. Sonos can be expensive if you don't find them on sale. Easy to add components over time. I added the Ikea speakers.

    Great soundbar for a small to medium room. Easy to setup and sound is very believable. Even better when paired with the mini sub and a pair Sonos one speakers

    Love love love the quality of sound. Pair it with the sun and 2 Ones or an Amp for the surrounds and it is a quality sound system. In order to achieve 7.1 make sure your TV supports it. My TV only supports 5.1 so that limits my output and I didn’t know that before buying. But I am ready when it is time to upgrade my TV. Being a Sonos I love to turn the TV on and send the TV sound of football games or soccer games to different rooms in the house while doing laundry or taking a shower so I get game audio in the other rooms and if a big play happens I can run back to the TV and see the replay.

    Sound is great for its size. Getting it connected was cumbersome and needing to add an app to control it isn’t my favorite thing.

    Overall a great purchase. The sound bar is amazing all on its own. I was skeptical at first because of its size but believe me, it fills up our whole living room. I also purchased the wall mount for it so it looks and sounds great no rattle noises even at max volume. Setup was a breeze and pairs nicely with my LG C3 TV. (I love technology)

    Underwhelming without a sub

    I've had many Sonos products over the last 10 years. My living room is an arc, two subs and two Era 300's. Bought this Beam for the bedroom based on all the good reviews and my past experience with Sonos. Don't be fooled by all the comments talking about how great the Beam is. Without a sub, it is massively underwhelming and I considered returning it. I ended up buying a mini sub and then all of a sudden the Beam really came alive. I can highly recommend the Beam, but only if you add a sub. Without the sub, there are many better options for soundbars out there. But if you're planning on adding to your system in the future, this is a great soundbar, it's just not great on its own.

    Took some time (and an IT savvy daughter) to set up, but overall easy to use via the app and Alexa, and works wirelessly with the sub-mini. Excellent sound quality for a 38" soundbar.

    Sonos is always great. This Gen 2 sound bar does sound better than the Gen 1. It is able to do dolby atmos. But you need the right equipment.

    Returned the Ray in exchange for the Beam. The Beam connects to the remote which the Ray did not. The sound is much clearer than the Ray. All in all a better purchase. Thank you Best Buy for your guidance with the exchange.

    Sonos Beam Gen 2 is an excellent sound bar that fills the room with sound. The voice enhancement feature helps when listening to soft dialogue. Great app.looking to buy the subwoofer as the bass is weak.

    My brother gave me my first sonos beam as a house warming gift a year or two ago, was excited and frustrated at the same time cause I knew this would be the new sound ecosystem for my home. multiple components later Ive added my third beam and have to say this coupled with other components to gain 5.1 sound is awesome, (if you arent a complete audiophile and want simplicity), and immersive sound for any midsize livingroom and bedroom. Not goint to get into the techy nerd stuff on how it works but many complaints have been issues with wifi, yes you can only hook this up with wifi although this specific item offers bluetooth and alexa.
