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.

    Overall a great sound bar. I upgraded from a Sony sound bar from 2017 and this one is farrrrr superior. Sounds are really crisp and sounds like a movie theater. I made it surround with the sun and the 2 side Era 100’s which sounds phenomenal in my bedroom. Only down side is it’s not super loud for music when tryna get pumped. But the quality comes first with this product and it won’t get too loud if it’ll get distorted. Still great

    So nice to have sound coming from the front of the TV instead of bouncing off the wall behind it, Now if I could figure out how to turn it on and off without plugging it in and unplugging it from the power strip on the floor I'm sure there's a way.

    Great sound. Turned the bass all the down because we live in an apartment and you can still hear bass. The audio matches exactly to the tv, there’s no lag.

    Dynamite comes in small packages. My husband said that when he’s upstairs with the door closed, it sounds so crisp it sounds like people are in our house when I’m watching a movie. The movie audios are full and robust. I love it! I tried to take a nap and a scene with an explosion came up and the sound was just so rich. It sounds like we do have a full system in our living room. Well worth it. We have a proper theater room with surround in wall sound so we didn’t want to buy the larger Sonos Arc but to be honest this is more than enough for our livingroom.

    I was tempted by the Sonos Arc which at least in the store sounded amazing. However, im glad we went with the smaller Beam as the room we put it in was not too large. I think the Arc would have overwhelmed the area. The Beam connected through HDMI easily and the sound is excellent. The app doesnt always work for me but that may an issue with my home wifi and doesnt effect performance.

    I bought this soundbar for the living room of my condo since it was nice and compact; the white looks great with the decor I have, and the product feels premium for sure! But where my issues began was when I plugged it in, and began setting it up… the Sonos app DOES make everything fairly simple and quick to update, but when I went to set up truplay tuning to the room, I kept getting a failure error after every attempt. Upon further testing, I noticed that sound was only coming from the right side of the soundbar, and the left was completely dead. After reaching out to SONOS, they were more than happy to help, but only after I supplied a video of the soundbar being played, photo of trueplay failing, and submitting a diagnostic of the device through the app. After they reviewed my case, they agreed to send me a replacement unit, BUT I had to ship/return the defective one back and it had to deliver before they would even mail out the replacement; there was an option to ship out right away, but they make you input your credit card info, and place a pending charge for the full MSRP that supposedly would clear once the defective one was returned… after setting up the replacement, everything seems to be functioning properly, and the sound is definitely better than TV speakers. However… at the price point it is currently at, I’ve been less than impressed with sound, quality control, and customer service.

    The Sonos sound bar is exactly what I was looking for. I have hearing loss and Tinnitis. My hearing aids only take it so far. The richness of the sound bar helped me hear everything that my hearing aids did not improve. The Salesman helped and was very knowledgeable, understanding, and informative. He helped me make a wise choice.
