Customers are saying

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 soundbar packs a ton of depth of sound and volume. You can't really beat this soundbar for it's intended purposes. I have this in my large master bedroom. It's perfect for movies, music, etc.

    Wow! The first Sonos speaker that impressed me

    I have never been a fan of Sonos speakers due to lack of base without $700+ for the sub. I’ve always considered them over priced for what you get but this Beam (gen 2) was a pleasant exception. I like lots of base so wasn’t thinking this would work. After listening in store. I was impressed! Perfect amount of base with a nice balance between low and high frequencies. I wanted a premium sound experience in my office as I work from home. Wanted to be able to listen with my iMac, iPhone, tv, and streaming services. This fit the bill great!!! Wonderful rich, clear sound from all three. If I were to take a star away it would be due to problematic google assistant integration. Right now, I can only change volume if listening to YouTube music (or other services externally sourced) with my smart tv as the sound source. I was hoping I could turn tv on and off and pause with voice commands but either im not able to figure out how to configure it correctly or it’s just not integrating well. Regardless, the sound is so amazing that Im willing to overlook that issue. Also, no instructions in the box. To setup, had to go online and search for setup instructions, which was simple enough.

    The Sonos Beam is excellent. The sound quality is amazing to the point where we are not using our close caption option due to the clarity of the sound. Also, the customer service person assisting us in the sale was very knowledgeable and helped our family with the purchase. Allen

    I bought this as an upgrade to my home theater. I previously had a PLAYBASE as a receiver, but the Beam's Dolby Atmos capability really attracted me...and boy, does it deliver on its promise (be sure, though, that you do the Trueplay tuning BEFORE you start diving into any content.) Setup was a cinch, and within 15 minutes I was up and running. Since incorporating the Beam the sound quality has improved tenfold, even on the ONEs and the SUB, and there's an unbelievably immersive experience when watching films that support Atmos capabilities. I highly recommend this product to anyone wanting to experience a quality product that also generates high-quality sound.

    Sonos Beam (Gen 2) Soundbar, Great Buy!!!!!

    The Sonos Beam Smart Soundbar has been a great addition to my home theatre system. I have it paired with the Sonos Mini Sub and the two together put out exceptional audio. Whether listening to music or watching movies, the audio output from this device is second to none. I also love the Sonos smart app that is available to control the two devices, simultaneously. The functionality of the app, in unison with both devices, makes for an even better listening experience. I would highly recommend Sonos and their paired technology.

    This is one beautiful little system that I can expand as time goes on. Sound quality is great and doesn’t take up a lot of room. Great expandable sound bar! Set up for this system takes minutes.

    Amazing bar and not that far off the original arc. Would be great in a small room. Lacks any real height effect but gets fairly loud with a wide sound stage. Most people would be fine with this and a sub mini and era 100's for surrounds.

    This was my favorite soundbar until the software within the app screwed it all up. It’s a great soundbar with the best treble and bass. Once the developers of the app fix it, I will purchase another one

    I tried the sonos arc first but it was too large for my setup. The Beam 2 is just as good for small to medium sozed setups at half the price. Sounds great and easy to setup

    The Sonic Beam Gen2 has a great sound, and the bass is better than expected. I don’t really notice a big jump with the addition of Dolby Atmos, but the sound is true and accurate. The setup was quick and easy, and the control through the Sonos app is excellent.

    Quality is simply lovely, design is awesome. Sound is perfect. I think is the best purchase that I ever made in my life with sound bars. I was trying with Bose and Harman Kardon and the quality was good enough. When I switch to the Sonos Beam the feeling is totally different I love it.

    I’ve been looking for a small sound bar that keeps a low profile while still having great sound and the sonos beam gen 2 does just that. It knocks out my tv speakers and gives me better sound clarity that i didn’t even know i was missing out on and with the ability to add future upgrades like subs and surround sound setup its awesome investment if you like sonos products. Only downside is that connecting to apple airplay can be a bit annoying for me.
