    Do you need to hear the voices on the TV clearly. Then this is the product for you it is compact has a bright sound and is easy to set up. And if later on you need bigger sound or more speakers it’s wireless so all you have to do is pick up additional products. I was able to set up the app on my phone and hook up the speaker and do the soundcheck in just a few minutes very easy to set up.

    Great sound from this soundbar. This is my first purchase of a Sonos product and I am impressed. The unit is perfect for a smaller room (11’ x 14’). Good for movies and sports. I recommend the Beam - the Dolby Atmos feature adds a lot of depth. Great product!

    Overall this is a solid soundbar for it's size. I am happy with it's range of sound and I have had no issues with connectivity. I currently have the sound bar and mini sub paired with earc control. Setup was easy but I did have to update firmware on each device which took around 20 minutes all around. While it is a bit too pricey in my opinion, I would buy it again.

    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.

    Didn't know what I was missing! Samsung. TCL, Polk, do not compare to the Sonos system. Expensive in my view, but after using, worth it!!

    Good sound, relative to the price and for being a soundbar (a sub and even surrounds would definitely be the full experience, but for $500 this is a great all-in-one). Looks good and blends into the room. And really easy to set up and interact with!

    Totally blown by this. With such small footprint but big sound. Inhave this in a smaller room and this is enough. Dolby Atmos is subtle due to no upward firing speakers but still happy with the purchase. More bang for your buck. If you have extra budget, Sonos Arc is better.

    This was a good addition to my home system. I enjoy the fact that all my Sonos speakers are connected and they can play different music in each location.

    Big expansive sound from a small soundbar with no subwoofer. Easily outperforms the Bose Soundtouch 300 with subwoofer that it replaced.

    This BEAM GEN2 sound bar is small with a great sound. I had recently purchased the ARC and went back to the BEAM GEN2 since I was very impressed with the performance compared to the ARC for the fraction of the price. I’m planning on purchasing another unit for the basement as well.
