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.

    Sonos is one of those things that seem too expensive until you have one. They just work. Setup is a cinch and the sound is great. I'm hooked.

    Highly recommend. Great sound and pairs with TV remotes so you don’t have an extra remote lying around

    Not sure about this. I didn’t like it taking over the tv controls so I used the optical outlet on the tv

    AWESOME! While the height of it is slightly higher than I would like - it works really well without blocking any IR for my TV.

    Sounds perfect. The arc is fantastic, the beam is a step down from that but perfect for smaller rooms. I have it in my living room which is decent size. I moved the arc to a media room. Couldn't be happier.

    IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY, BUY THE BIG SOUND BAR

    I was very underwhelmed with this sound bar. I bought with the hopes of building an amazing home sound system slowly as Sonos is very expensive but high quality. I loved the very simple set-up, connected seamlessly to my WiFi and the Sonos App was awesome. If i was to buy more speakers they would also quickly and seamlessly connect. My review of my above statement is a 5+. However, this particular sound bar did not meet my expectations for the almost $500 price. The sound range was very limited and did not fill my small living room like i thought it would. The sound was relatively crisp with voices and basic nlises, however, there was little to no base or surround tyoe sound unless i listened to music really loud and was in the dining room 5 steps up from my living room. I returned this sound bar and almost bought the larger sound bar, but for $900 and needing to spend another $1500 to buy a Subwoofer and surround speakers i decided to go another direction. If i was independently wealthy i would spend the 3k+ to build an amazing home sound system as im sure its the best sounding and intuitive system out there. Just didnt work for me who wanted something i could enjoy for under $1,000.

    Replaced a 6 speaker surround sound system with this Beam. Maybe the helicopters don't come in over my shoulder any more but the sound is clear and crisp.

    Love it. This is my second beam, have one on other TV. I tried the Ray and did not care for it. Although it has a phone app you do not have to use the app to control it. You can ask it to play music and it does. Sound quality is great.

    I wear hearing aids and have looked At and purchased several sound bars. This is by far the best sound bar I have found and would highly recommend it to anyone who has issues hearing dialogue.

    It’s been a month now and the soundbar has been a great addition to the TV. The only thing I hope is that Sonos makes the volume based on a number since you can't tell how high/low the volume is.
