Customer Ratings & Reviews

I kept going back and forth between the Sonos Beam and the Sonos Arc. Honestly, for a 20ft by 20ft room, the beam did a great job! Its good enough for general tv viewing. When you wanna watch movies using it, it still does good but if you add the mini-sub, it provides an even better experience. But, as a stand alone, it does better vs any other stand alone soundbar I've used and I've used a lot!

Works great very easy setup, I have had a few sound bars and none of the worked as good or setup as easy as this one.

Starting with the positives and then working my way to the worst… Fit and finish is great. Very minimalistic. Easy setup as a sound bar. Good sound for a medium or small room, but have to crank it up for a 23x25 room. Has a couple weird quirks with volume control. One is that it reduces sound back to zero when pausing streaming TV and slowly builds it up when you resume play so you miss a couple seconds of audio when you resume. Second is that certain streaming services like HBO had great volume disparity with others. My old surround sound receiver would need a volume adjustment but at a smaller degree. 35 needed 42 for the same level between other streaming services and HBO. This is 45-68 on my setup with the Beam. The worst feature is Alexa. It works great as a stand-alone Alexa decide but integration with an Alexa enabled smart home is useless. I had Alexa decided in every room that would play everywhere or downstairs as a group. The Beam shows up as a Sonos integration but cannot be grouped for multi room use through Alexa. So it was either my kitchen and dining room Alexa speakers or the living room. Selecting one would disqualify the others. Completely useless. Tons of negative reviews in the Sonos skill in the Alexa app that you might want to check if you are thinking of integrating into an Alexa home. If I had to guess it is because Sonos only wants you to use Sonos speakers in each room to have a speaker group, and not be able to intermix with other manufacturers. If you don’t use Alexa or can afford to outfit your entire home with Sonos then this is still probably a good product. I cannot speak for Google Assistant use at all. I have an Alexa centric smart home with about 50 devices for frame of reference.

Great sound, first class, worth the price, easy to operate.

Awesome soundbar. A little pricey, but works very well.

Exceeded expectations. Room filling sound. Excellent for the price.

I got this for gaming on an LG C1 television. It sounds excellent, and for as small as it is, sounds very clear and punchy. Atmos works great for a soundbar.

We love it! Quality of the sound is epic!!! Good for the family movie time!

No subwoofer needed, great sound without a lot of wiring

Outstanding sound and ease of use. Syncing to iphone was a snap.

Great sound and easy to hook up to our tv. The speakers that our on the tv need help and this is a perfect companion.

The Sonos Beam gen.2 is just the type of product that make sense. It’s well-built and has excellent sound-and it’s a great value. The bass might be a bit on the shy side, but I was impressed with the dynamic range. You can hear everything from the faintest breeze to the loudest explosion with complete clarity. I no longer use my “audiophile “ system-just Sonos products for TV and music.

Fantastic sound in TV or music mode. Easy to set up and use the app. Doesn't take alot of space

Easy to set up, and Sounds Wonderful! Fit great ynder the TV and doesn’t block the IR sensor

great sound, no cords, will purchase for our other tvs

Great soundbar good price thanks good sound thanks

Easy to set up with their app. Better to have sub woofers with it. Perfect for small or medium area.

Sounds amazing, and easy to install with the Sonos App. Looking to get the subwoofer.

Love this, almos installed itself, adding a Sonos mini Subwoofer was magic! The only way to watch TV

it fits perfect in the mantle of my RV. I like it.
