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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    Great sound. Sub has enough bass, I like how I can adjust the sound level of the top, center and sub speakers. Vocals are also clear.

    The Beam is a quite small relatively stumpy sound bar, but the sound it produces is the opposite. It has a very good frequency range and a quite unreal spacial presence ( which depends a lot on your source material). Whether it has the separation of a pair of individual speakers is up for debate, but it is quite impressive and accurate from quiet to quite loud. Be aware if you are wall mounting it you need to make sure it is screwed down very tightly or you will get a rattle from bass frequencies. I found the Sonos app to be finicky though.

    Still the best in my opinion and represents a great value at this point. The virtual surround settings are among the best I've ever heard.

    Great sound, easy setup with hdmi hookup. Sonos voice works well. When they come out with a sub mini, I will add it to my system.

    If your looking for a great mid range price on a sound system you cannot go wrong with the Sonos Beam Gen2. We sent the JBL 9.1 sound system back and thank goodness we did. I don't have to go deaf to enjoy a program, the dialog is clear, the music is great as well as the surround sound. The Arc was the next step up, and if the beam gen 2 did not do it, that would have been the next step. NO NEED this system packs what you need for a family room backed up by a kitchen and nook. We will be adding some additional speakers in other rooms for the music to play thru the house.

    Very good sound. The app could use some improvement from an ease of use stand point. Not sure its worth the cost without a sub, but overall it sounds great.

    Bought this sound bar to augment my Sony ‘Frame’ tv. Pushes out excellent sound for voices and surround sound. Excellent addition for simple setup in our loft. Paired seemlessly with the tv.

    Sonos beam sound bar

    Beam is very nice. I would recommend it for smaller TVs or for smaller rooms. Has doby atmos and very easy to use. You do need a tv with eARC or ARC HDMI input. I bought this since it was in stock and the lager Sonos sound bar (sonos arc) was not. I heard the arc is nicer but does cost twice as much.

    I love it. I bought the beam gen 2 and the sub gen 3. I also bought the arc and ended up taking the arc back because in my opinion it’s not $500 better than the beam gen 2. Voice quality is great on cable, streaming, etc… Sonos does voice better than any other sound bar. I kept the beam gen 2 over the arc because, while the arc is better, the Atmos isn’t so much better that I had to keep it. If you get the beam definitely get the sub too.

    On recommendation of Geek Squad tech, I bought this to replace Samsung's new skinny soundbar, which was glitchy. The Sonos is easy to operate and sounds great. Only wish it could remain connected to WiFi while connected to a Bluetooth source.
