    The Sonos Beam Gen 2 Sound Bar is definitely worth spending more for. Delivers theatre quality sound, has a useful smartphone app, will play music streaming services and is Alexa compatible. If you're upgrading your sound bar, this is the one to buy.

    [Employee of bestbuy] The sonos ecosystem is very good, and the sound on the mid level soundbar is very surprisingly good even without a subwoofer.

    The set up process was very quick and the sound quality is pretty good for a soundbar of this size. There is also minimal audio delay when ARC and other connected devices.

    Great sound. I always had Bose products before. This beam gen 2 plus two of the SL's makes an excellent home theatre effect! If you have a smaller space, go with this product versus the more expensive bar.

    I have owned many Sonos products and even have an Arc in my living room, but I am blown away at how good this thing sounds in my bedroom. The highs and lows are crystal clear, I really can’t believe how good it sounds for how small it is.

    I have had many Sonos products and the Beam is consistent with quality and simplicity. The sound is great and I look forward to pairing with the sub in the future. Note that this does not have an optical audio input and only the HDMI ARC input.

    What a difference a Sound Bar makes! Impressively clear voices and a “mini-theatre” experience in my bedroom. Sonos quality is extremely difficult to beat in my opinion.
