Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently added the Sonos Beam Gen 2 to my living room setup, and it's been a fantastic upgrade. Right out of the box, the sound quality is impressive—rich, balanced, and immersive, especially for movies and shows with Dolby Atmos. Dialogue is incredibly clear, and it handles music just as well as TV audio. Setup was a breeze. I just connected the HDMI and power cable, opened the Sonos app, and everything synced up in minutes. The Trueplay tuning feature (if you have an iPhone or iPad) makes a real difference in optimizing the sound for your space. It’s compact but doesn’t feel underpowered. The virtual surround sound fills the room nicely, and it integrates seamlessly with other Sonos speakers if you ever want to build a full system. Pros: Clear, immersive sound with Dolby Atmos Compact and sleek design Quick and easy setup with the Sonos app Excellent for both TV and music Things to note: Bass is solid, but you might want to add a sub if you're really into heavy low-end Trueplay tuning only works with iOS devices

Awesome sound bar for an apartment space and studio room, has clear sound quality. Without the woofer it has a great kick in base. Really recommend it. Only drawback is no Bluetooth option.

Good quality build, modern design. I’ve heard Sonos is good for music and Bose good for movies, but in my opinion this soundbar sounds GREAT for both! Sound is loud and immersive, sounds like you’re at the movies! Dolby Atmos sounds awesome, even though the beam 2 uses a virtual function for Atmos instead of actual upward speakers! It has good bass, and that’s without adjusting the equalizer in the Sonos app! This soundbar has some cool features through the app that aren’t offered by Bose and other brands. Alexa function works good, and I’m able to control the TV using Alexa. The Wifi at home has not been affected by adding the Beam 2. The White beam 2 looks good, especially if you’re getting the white sub too!

Pretty awsome little speakers. Does everything I need. This high-end soundbar offers excellent sound quality and supports Dolby Atmos. It is also a great choice for those who want a soundbar that can be integrated into a Sonos multi-room audio system. However, it is on the expensive side and does not support DTS:X.

Just switched from the LG SN6Y to the Sonos Beam Gen 2 and I’m honestly blown away. Voices are so much clearer, the surround sound effect feels more immersive even without rear speakers, and setup through the Sonos app was super easy. The soundstage feels wider, and the bass is surprisingly strong for such a compact bar. Plus, the design looks way sleeker in my apartment. Definitely worth the upgrade!

After a couple of years of being on the fence about whether to take the plunge on this mostly highly regarded soundbar, a proper open-box find made the expense far less difficult to swallow and, viola! Brought it home, hooked it up (easy-peasy), paired our two Play: 1 speakers as satellites, and did the Trueplay dial-in and, dang! Who needs a sub!? The amount of sound and the depth, range, dimension of sound from movies now is amazing. I've heard some surround sound set-ups before and they do sound pretty wild, this is somehow different. More intimate. This isn't our first time with a soundbar/sub set-up. In fact, we've had three different soundbar/sub setups over the past few years and they were ok. Much better than the tv speakers but only just. Now, small sounds emerge from the left or the right, causing me or my wife some uncertainty thinking the sound is something other than the movie. Honestly, neither of us are that experienced with this multi-speaker set up. However, it has grown on us to the point where we are less likely to think a murderer is in the house now. The turning point for my wife was an afternoon when she was at home by herself (me and the boys out on a weekend getaway) and she dialed up some music and sat and read while tunes bathed her in sonic comfort. She officially became a fan. I, a long-time two channel audio cat, am sold on what the Beam and the two satellite speakers do with movies. It's made watching movies - even movies we've seen many times - more exciting and fun. The music side is pleasant enough - more for the convenience than the actual audio quality. It's faithfulness to audio, or rather, enhancement of song and sound, is a wee bit much for me but I take a sip and relax and get over it. So, in short, after a few more Sonos acquisitions, our house has now become a full-fledged Sonos-fueled house and we are glad about it. Except for my office which is still two-channel British hifi only, thank you. Bravo, Sonos! Your stuff is pricey but, I ain't gonna lie, it's sexy.

My new sonos beam 2 sound bar sounds great and has made our movie watching experience so much better than just listening to the tv speakers. Would definitely recommend!

Looking to upgrade my bedroom soundbar and was always intrigued by Sonos, but quite pricey. I was a bit skeptical on purchase that I would not truly need a woofer, although if this was true, that would be great. Less crap on the floor. And as it turns out, I didn't!. In fact, that would have been to much. The best way to describe the bass is high end headphone bass. It will not, NOT shake your room. But it will be an amazingly great balanced tone. So being that is the whole debate on Sonos, I will just fill in the normals. Sound quality is rich and nuanced. Dialogue is super easy to hear clearly, but does not sound tinny. The app is killer, it has an eq and you can use this as a very easy Alexa or Siri. It is small but powerful. Buy it if you are reading this, you will be thrilled with the direction that soundbars are going. In conclusion, remember when everyone was buying 18 inch woofers for their car so you could get bass? And now that seems lame since you can get a balanced sound with a smart setup? Then this is the adult soundbar for you

I am really enjoying my Sonos sound bar. It is very easy to install, and gives you a much improved audio experience for a reasonable price.

Great sound quality ease of use and great design!!

I have been an avid bose fan for 25 years and unfortunately the quailtiy that bose is known for is no longer there. When it worked, it was awesome. But every time u turned off the tv it lost connection and had to be set up again on a daily basis. Well, took thay back and bought sonos. I must say the connection process is a breeze and it hasnt lost connection one time. But to me, the bose still sounds better and louder. Which is very important when using outside. Just unfortunately will not stay connected but the fact that sonos was so simple to set up and does sound amazing for movies just lacks when playing music, i will definitely be keeping. Just think it was somewhat over priced for the sound quailty.

Easy set up. Amazing sound for such a compact speaker. Definitely worth the investment.

Incredible sound bar for a great price! Night mode and voice enhancement work extremely well. Good bass considering no subwoofer. Atmos works well without additional speakers. Obviously, you can add rear surrounds and a mini sub woofer, but not needed unless you like to shake the walls with booming sound (I hate that).

I love my Beam 2! I originally purchased it for voice clarity because my hubby like to turn the volume WAY UP when we watch TV. It made a big difference in the volume he required and the bonus is that I have the app on my phone and if he turns the TV up too loud for me, I can tap it down to a reasonable level while staying under the radar. Of course this was the first step on starting to put a Sonos system together! Once I saw how nice music sounded on the Beam, I added a mini sub and then a couple of Era 100s for a nice surround system. I’m already planning to add a few more pieces to push music around the house. I wish it were a bit let pricey, but I love it. Another plus is that is easy to set up and configure.

Highly recommended!

I love our Sonos Beam (Gen 2) soundbar! It was easy to unpack and install. The sound quality is fantastic! It really generates a significant amount of sound power, so cranking it up is not necessary, unlike with other soundbars we've owned. It's a very versatile soundbar that can be easily added to with a subwoofer and surround sound speakers.
