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.

    Its only been less than a month, but it sounds incredible. People say that the only downside is that you can't connect via Bluetooth. The workaround is to mirror your device to the tv its connected to, and voila, your music from your device to the soundbar. Dolby Atmos works great, sounds like a true surround sound system without extra speakers. But more speakers probably amplifies the effect.

    Sonos is the best sound, made easy. Setup and installation are a snap, the interface for operation is intuitive, and the sound quality is as good as it gets. Having made the choice to replace my slightly less expensive Samsung sound bar with this much more capable unit, I couldn’t be happier

    I already have a Sonos Arc but was looking for a smaller soundbar that would fit better in a small room. This works great, and has the hdmi connection to directly connect to tv. Sound is good and the size makes it a better choice for smaller rooms. I'll probably pick up another to connect to master bedroom tv.

    I was concerned I would need a sub-woofer to go along with this, but it is great by itself. Very seamless to setup with Sonos app and also integrates well with the HDMI ARC so I don't need a separate audio control. Nice job Sonos!

    Solid & impactful sound from a reasonably-sized bar; great presentation in unboxing. Easy set up (plug in via HDMI eARC) - only demerits are requiring the Sonos app to initialize.

    Mainly been a BOSE guy my entire life, but liked the look, sound, and price of the Sonos in the store. Took it home, hooked it up, and was very pleasantly surprised at the sound the bar puts out. and, without the available satellite speakers, the bar was still throwing sounds behind us as we sat in front of the TV. Very cool!

    Out of the box to making great sound in 2 minutes. I'm pleasantly surprised at the level and quality of sound from such a small device. I'm sure real audiophiles will rave about needing a subwoofer and multiple speaker systems, but I think 99% of users will love the Beam 2.

    JBL Sound Bar 500 has great sound quality for a wide range of TV and Audio media styles. Easy setup and calibration out of the box. Sub woofer is boomin’ with good vibrations.

    This speaker is pretty amazing, I didnt want all the clutter and it works perfect. The Sonos app to calibrate it is amazing as well. I will update and add more speakers to this set up, to get that full surround sound through out the living room.

    Using this with the Sonos sub mini and 2 Sonos ones gen 2 in my bedroom. They provide a balanced, room feeling sound. The system can go really loud. It’s an expensive set up compared to others but I’m more than pleased with my purchase.

    I’ve had numerous center speakers that didn’t stand up to time or distortion at higher volumes! Sonos is amazing! Small but great sound and clarity! Can’t wait to buy more pieces to complete system. Ty

    We thought it was not as clear on dialogue as a Bose. Otherwise we liked everything else. The sound for action films was great. Easy to use. Having to use an app on the phone was also not the easiest if more than one person wants to control it. We ended up returning it & purchasing the Bose Ultra 900.

    Sounds Good but costs plenty

    The Sonos Beam Gen 2 sound bar by itself was an improvement over the best sound that I could get out of our new HiSense 65" U8K TV, but it still needed the mini subwoofer (that I also purchased) to provide enough low end. That pairing sounds pretty good (and I am picky) up to medium-loud volume levels (which I don't wish to exceed), but it also came close to costing as much as the new TV - and that was an eyebrow raiser for me. I should also mention my experience with the SONOS App: I had an original iPhone SE which was not capable of running the App correctly because its iOS version maxed out at 15.x. That caused me to waste a couple hours trying to get the App to work and eventually call Sonos customer support just to find out that I would need to use a newer iPhone with iOS 16 or higher on it. With a newer iPhone, the App worked fine, but it would have been better if that requirement was in the instructions, or if the App would have complained right away with that detail instead of having it run enough to just cause frustration on an older iPhone.
