    Truly remarkable sound experience and completely worth the purchase. My living room sounds like a theater with the single Sonos Beam. The app to control it and adaptability to play music as well from my phone makes it the perfect speaker for all my needs.

    Really impressed with this sound bar. The only thing I might say is if you like room rattling bass, it isn't for you, but if you have the volume up on an action movie, you are really just missing the floor shake. I will probably get the sub mini at some point to add that back in in. But very happy with the sound bar overall and the app.

    At first I was a little sceptical about the sonos beam until I was given a demonstration. The sound is unbelevable. I have since purchased the mini subwoffer and the era speakers. whether you're watching a game, a movie or listening to a concert of any kind. With the sonos surround..... you have front row seats

    Love it for a smaller space, its a bit of a pain to connect if its your second system, make sure you watch YouTube before powering everything up.. Sounds better than my 2 other Bose setups. app is also getting better, they just did a big update. worth the money!

    Never would I believe the depth and quality that this thing puts out. I’m a audiophile nut and always told myself I would never buy a sound bar. We’ll I had a room where a home theater wasn’t a going to work and said screw it. Did my research and ended up with the Beam! Thing is a monster in disguise. If you’re on the fence, do it. Also love the app for keeping it up to date (which is crucial for tech like this ) can control volume, Alexa, anything you want. 5/5

    Incredible sound from such a compact soundbar and at a decent price. I took off a star for Best Buy, not Sonos. An advertised free SiriusXM trial was supposed to be included but was not printed on the receipt. I tried to contact customer service and they directed me to another phone number. I ultimately just gave up because it wasn’t worth the time or hassle.

    If you are looking for a good quality bar with small foot print and packs a punch. Look no further this bar blow my mind still even after owning it a while. Great spatial audio for movies and great for music when you have guest over. Straight up would take this over any other bar on the market other than the arc from sonos.

    Great sounding bar. Really cleaned up the muddy dialogue problem I had with using the TV speakers. Connecting wirelessly with mobile devices is a breeze, and blasting tunes on it fills up the space with great quality. Really happy with the $ spent. Worth it.
