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 thing beats out all the soundbars in the price range. Works great with other Sonos products. Glad to have this added to my home

    Its a Sonos so you get what you pay for. Easy set up and control, great sound quality for the size and a sleek design. Not a negative but the one thing I will say is that before purchasing I read a lot of reviews that said the Beam rivals the Arc. I now have both and the Arc is, in my opinion, vastly superior to the Beam. That is not a knock on the Beam. It is an amazing sound bar at its price and size. They are just meant for two different applications.

    Great speaker! I love this speaker as it has ARC and this is a cheaper way to get Dolby atmos with my paired Sonos ones.

    Real solid product. If you have a large area go big with the Arc. If Not beam is perfect. Excellent for sports and movies.

    SONOS BEAM WITH QUEEKSQUAD TECH INSTALL

    The product itself, a Sonos Beam is good. What wasn't great was the Geeksquad installation, which is quite expensive. Get yourself someone "tech savy" to install and connect to TV and phone--and save a lot for that service.

    The beam makes the sound experience really great when paired with the sub woofer. Having the ability to further pair them with other Sonos speakers in the house without having to run cables makes these a great buy

    This was our second Sonos-Beam. We like the first one so much that when we bought another TV, we added another Sonos-Beam. Excellent sound. Very pleased with the quality. The Sonos-Beam can also be used to stream music without the TV.

    During the first week of use, we have noticed a slight improvement but it is based on a limited sample. We need more time to judge regular TV, movies, streamed shows and movies, etc.

    Liittt - definitely amplifies your TV. Don't purchase without the sub - you'll be missing out on the best paarrtt!! Going to purchase 2 of the 'ones' and spread out! The ultimate, modern home surround sound. Buy the system if u got the bag!

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

    Great Soundbar - Not Great for PC

    This soundbar is amazing as all sonos products tend to be, however I found it wasn’t perfect for my purposes as a PC surround system. I think it sounds great when you scoot back, but it’s really not made for sitting super close. I would def recommend it for a typical home theater setup!

    This is a great little soundbar. I was originally hoping to buy an Arc, but purchased this as it was available. I have zero regrets. It was super easy to add to our existing Sonos setup.

    A little pricy but value for your money. Very easy to hook up. Plug in to TV and plug in to power. I also attached two Sonon 1 speakers I already had. It gave the room a fuller sound.

    Excellent audio quality, for demanding ears, good compressor filters, does not allow saturation and ensures a pleasant audio level
