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.

    Overall very happy with the beam gen 2. Easily connects to Apple Music using airplay 2. And also can use the included HDMI to Optical connector to connect to my PC. I recommend pairing a Sonos sub as well. It helps free up low end frequencies so the beam can focus more on playing mids and highs. Even without the sub it sounds good but sub elevates the sound quality noticeably.

    Out of all of the sound bars I tested, this seemed to hit all the marks for me. Ended up buying two, one for the living room and one for the bedroom. Have each room setup with two Apple HomePods to somewhat create a surround sound (I only use Apple TV - this wouldn’t work otherwise).

    Fantastic upgrade for any TV in a small room. If you don't have an apple device to set up TruPlay calibration, borrow one (we used my daughter's iPhone 13 pro max), set up the app, set up TruPlay, done. You don't have to stay connected to it with the app for the feature to work. It's a one and done thing.

    Very good speaker. The advice I received in deciding to spend more was superior. I couldn’t be more satisfied. I would not have purchased it without the advice from Geek Squad during an earlier purchase.

    I was a little skeptical, mainly because of the price point. But it was well worth the money! We’ll be adding more speakers to complete the setup. Although, this does a great job on its own.

    Great product from Sonos. Always wanted a soundbar to add depth to watching movies and tv shows. Easy to setup device as well as google features. Soundbar automatically switches to best sound output. Not much needed to know to operate. Well worth the money.

    Excellent soundbar especially for the price point. I usually always buy Bose when it comes to speakers all around, decided to give Sonos a chance and I am very pleased with the quality and sound of this relatively small speaker. Perfect for my bedroom.

    Absolutely stellar sound, and haven't had any technical issues. The only thing it's lacking is a power on/off option besides pulling the HDMI cord

    Kinda useless without the sub

    3 stars because to me they shouldn’t even sell this without the subwoofer. It’s a great speaker, the UI on their app is great, but it has virtually no bass. I’m sure when you spend the extra $500 and get the sub, it’s a great home theater system. But without, for me, it’s like buying half of a system. I just couldn’t swing spending $1000 on a soundbar, so I returned it, got the Klipsch flexus 210 system. It’s great, with a sub, for the same price as the Sonos without the sub. I’m not saying it’s as good as the Sonos, especially the UI, but it’s good for the money.
