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 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.

    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.

    I love sonos products and the beam is amazing! I went with the beam over the ray because of the hdmi earc and Dolby atmos capability in addition to just being a better sounding speaker in general. I didn't buy the arc because I put it in my bedroom and didn't need an arc to fill the room with sound and the price was a lot more affordable but still has incredible sound!

    Got the beam Gen 2 based on geek squad recommendation when they installed my newly purchased TV. They added a soundbar mount that would fit it. When i got it, the ports for the screws to go in was .5 inches too short. So either I remove the TV from the wall to remove the soundbar mount that was installed, or just get a bigger soundbar. Spent an extra $250 and let me say it was worth every penny. I have an open concept home, the sound is clear, loud and sounds amazing.

    We purchased the Sonos Beam, along with the Sonos Mini Sub and two Era speakers. We have a large living room with vaulted ceilings. The sound is better than I thought it would be. You can really tell the difference when watching shows that include Dolby Atmos. Where it really shines is watching sporting events, movies, and concerts. I will say the setup can be tricky. The app was not super intuitive.

    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 had been wanting to dip my toes into the world of Sonos products for a while and I'm very glad that I started with this one. My TV was producing more bass than it could handle by itself causing a rumbling sound, so I opted to get the Beam soundbar to remedy this. Sound is now clear and crisp and the low end is handled amazingly.

    I bought this soundbar when a speaker went out on my television. Setup was easy, connecting to the tv was easy and downloading the app and setting the eq was easy. Sound was great and the clear voice option really helped the voices come thru. For the size of the soundbar the sound quality was better than expected and it works well in my space. Liked it so much I went back to the store and bought the gen 3 subwoofer. Now I can't wait to go back and get some sonos one speakers to setup surround sound.

    Great quality speaker. One thing to keep in mind, NO BLUETOOTH connection available. Connects through your network and airplay. If you don’t mind that, it’s very good overall. Anyone connected to your network can easily connect and use it.
