    Tried 2 other good brands that were high priced and offered a sub for about the same cost as just this bar. The experience was not the same. The Sonos Beam Gen 2 blew away the two other brands that came with subs. My 2nd favorite part behind the sound quality is the user experience. So easy to use. Try to pick one up on the rare semiannual sale

    Sonos over Bose Unless It's in A Movie Theater

    Bose has always been my go-to for speaker systems, particularly for home entertainment. I bought the Bose comparison to the Sonos Beam but it was a no-brainer in the comparison of sound, quality, and price. It's extremely easy to set up and takes less than 10 minutes and you can tell an immediate difference and for the price you can't beat the product. If you wanted to spend $1200 for the top-of-the-line Bose system then you are in for a real treat and I must admit it blows this Sonos system away but remember do you want to spend that much and do you want to listen to regular tv as if you were at a movie theater watching a action-packed film. Bose top-of-the-line would be perfect for a home theater but for quality sound that's crisp and clear and enhances your daily TV shows and sounds just as good with your music which I use at all my outdoor functions and everyone loves it. The cheaper version of the Sonos is not worth it. You must splurge to get the desired quality you and all your guests will love.

    Great sound. Replacing a Polk Audio speaker with subwoofer. Very happy with the quality of the sound. The speaker is very expensive though. Have to use a phone app the set up. Does not have a remote.

    The sound of music

    I purchased a new television this holiday season. I had never had a sound bar before. My previous tv had decent sound.... so I thought. But when I plugged the Sonos Beam into my new TV and heard the difference between tv speakers and the sound bar, I was blown away. It was like a symphony of sound. Regardless of whether I'm watching the news at a normal room sound, or a movie at a little louder sound, or listening to music at an even louder sound, the Sonos delivers. Voices are clear and kept up front so they don't muffle into the background. The background sounds are crisp and clear, and music sounds divine. It's like being at a concert. The Sonos has the power to fill my entire living room with absolute bliss. If you want to be pampered in a bubble of sound, buy the Sonos Beam (Gen 2). You won't be disappointed.

    I first saw this product at a different store, went to Best Buy to try it and also because they have always the best deals and I love it. Easy to install, I added a couple of speakers that sonos immediately recognizes and connects and now my movies are like in the theatre. This sound is like being immersed in the show, distributes very well the surrounding audio.

    Great soundbar for small to medium room/bedroom. Pair it with Era 100 for surround sound. But without pairing also it works great.

    I'm using this in the bedroom without a sub or surrounds and it sounds very good. I'll probably get a sub at some point. Clear dialogue, OK bass. This isn't the system I'll be using for movies so I don't have the same expectations.

    Loving it so far. Great sound for a medium sized living room. Also syncing with my Move 2 is so easy. Also love the white. It elevates the aesthetic and looks great below my Frame tv.

    I use this for a bedroom TV and two Sonos Ones for surround sound. Love the plug and play ease of use on my Sony TV. An easy recommendation to anybody looking for a soundbar for a bedroom or office. Even a nice unit for a main living area considering the sound and price.

    The second gen is a great alternative to the Arc for smaller rooms. The virtual sound algorithm gives a roomier feel of the sound overall. I have it paired with two ONE SLs in a 19'x17'x9' room and it is great! highly recommend, especially if you can get a good deal.

    Bought this to replace a Sony Soundbar. The sound on this one is superior. The sound comes through clear and without muffling. Very easy setup. I also got one on sale, and used rewards cash.
