Excellent sound bar for price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great speaker overall. The Dolby Atmos experience is as you might expect for a mid tier sound bar. Not amazing but there to some degree. The bass is impressive with excellent mid and high frequency range. Only note it that if you are living in an apartment, you loose some power in the mid and low frequencies when below 50% volume. Nothing that can’t be fixed with an EQ adjustment. Overall very pleased with the purchase and plan to buy more Sonos soon.

Killer sound bar - WOW!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned my Bose Soundbar 700 for this. Hands down vastly superior to the Bose product that is twice the cost. Setup was super simple, the size is perfect for my 55" TV. It's mind blowing to me how much better the sound is than my Bose. This is my first Sonos product (I've always purchased Bose) and I'm a convert.

Best bang for the buck!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Already have several Sonos devices in diff spaces throughout my home (Amp, Arc, Subs, SL ones etc) which sons no longer living at home loved. Due to the fact that they live in smaller spaces I purchased Beams for both to upgrade their more basic sound bars. I was so impressed by the AMAZING SOUND coming from this (comparatively) small bar. Such a good value! (Esp if you can get it open box or on sale.) Super easy setup, even the most tech challenged can do it in minutes! A few of the best features.... Has Airplay Can stream ANY audio to it (not just TV audio) Can control it via Alexa Can control it w/your existing TV remote Has Trueplay (which allows one to maximize the best possible sound for the room/space it's in. Though fyi- via iOS only, )

Punches above its weight class
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this as a house warming gift, and they couldn't be happier. Big, balanced sound without distortion or crackles, even at high volume. Setup was quick and easy. Surprisingly, having no dedicated remote is actually a plus as there's one less device to keep track of; just use the HDMI ARC port and your TV remote can control it. Great device and great value all around!

Great soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent speaker, the sound is crystal clear and it gets loud if you need it too! Very easy to set up. I would recommend them, they are expensive though. So we were talked into buying an “open box” one. Well it worked great for about 24 days then it totally went out. Called Sonos customer support because everything I was doing that the app recommended wasn’t working even doing a factory reset. The speaker wouldn’t even do a factory reset. So customer support tried having me do a factory reset also, I told him I already tried two times before talking to him but I’d try again. But to no avail nothing would bring the speaker back to life. So Sonos is sending me a replacement Beam Gen 2. He said it may be refurbished or it may be a brand new one, he could say. Hopefully I have better luck with the replacement speaker! I know this is a good brand so hopefully I just got a dud the first time.

Great soundbar
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing bar and not that far off the original arc. Would be great in a small room. Lacks any real height effect but gets fairly loud with a wide sound stage. Most people would be fine with this and a sub mini and era 100's for surrounds.

Works how you expect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device gives you exactly what you pay for and I mean that in the best kind of way. Yes you can get a more expensive soundbar for a full movie experience but for day to day tv watching this sound bar works great. Be sure to utilize the app to adjust the speaker to your preferred settings. Out of the box settings were not great but after making adjustments in the app it works great. Also the connection through iPhone to play music anywhere in the house has been seamless as well. Overall I recommend if you are not looking for a speaker to provide a movie theater style experience but allows for great sound for tv, sports, and music.

Simply lovely
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quality is simply lovely, design is awesome. Sound is perfect. I think is the best purchase that I ever made in my life with sound bars. I was trying with Bose and Harman Kardon and the quality was good enough. When I switch to the Sonos Beam the feeling is totally different I love it.

The GOAT of Sound – Sonos Beam Delivers Big
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't usually write reviews, but the Sonos Beam deserves all the praise. This soundbar is hands-down the GOAT of home audio. The sound is crystal clear, with deep bass, crisp highs, and perfect balance—whether you're watching movies, gaming, or streaming music. It fills the room with immersive sound without needing a massive setup. Setup was super easy, and the sleek design fits seamlessly into any space. I also love the smart features—Alexa integration, Apple AirPlay 2, and smooth connectivity with other Sonos products. If you're on the fence, don’t be. The Sonos Beam punches way above its size and price point. It's a game-changer. Best Buy, you nailed it with this one!

Great Sound Bar!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sonos Beam Gen 2 is just what we needed to get better sound from our tv shows and movies. We previously had surround sound equipment set up but it all was just a bit much for our small living room. The Sonos Beam won’t take the place of a complete setup but it won’t disappoint either if you are looking for minimal equipment with great sound. If that is what you are looking for this sound bar won’t disappoint!.

Excellent all Around!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been thru several sound bars looking for the best one. I bought a Sony that was okay and moved it too my children's tv after I purchased the Sonos to try on my tv. I love the sound quality on audio and music! it is Top Notch! You will eventually wish you had a sub woofer- that I have been told you can easily add afterwards. But in the mean time (as I have no more money to spend, I have children) The Sonos Beam as a stand alone without a subwoofer outperforms the Sony with a sub for clarity and great overall depth of sound. I would highly recommend it! Set up was easier than any other sound bar I have purchased and paired with my Sony Tv really well. Other sound bars I tried (samsung and LG) did Not pair with my Sony and geek squad took them back and gave me the Sony sound bar that worked with the Sony tv. Morale of the story is that you need to either buy the same name brand sound bar as your tv to get it to work or by a SONOS!

Excellent sound, small size
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried the sonos arc first but it was too large for my setup. The Beam 2 is just as good for small to medium sozed setups at half the price. Sounds great and easy to setup

Wow! The first Sonos speaker that impressed me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have never been a fan of Sonos speakers due to lack of base without $700+ for the sub. I’ve always considered them over priced for what you get but this Beam (gen 2) was a pleasant exception. I like lots of base so wasn’t thinking this would work. After listening in store. I was impressed! Perfect amount of base with a nice balance between low and high frequencies. I wanted a premium sound experience in my office as I work from home. Wanted to be able to listen with my iMac, iPhone, tv, and streaming services. This fit the bill great!!! Wonderful rich, clear sound from all three. If I were to take a star away it would be due to problematic google assistant integration. Right now, I can only change volume if listening to YouTube music (or other services externally sourced) with my smart tv as the sound source. I was hoping I could turn tv on and off and pause with voice commands but either im not able to figure out how to configure it correctly or it’s just not integrating well. Regardless, the sound is so amazing that Im willing to overlook that issue. Also, no instructions in the box. To setup, had to go online and search for setup instructions, which was simple enough.

Great soundbar for apartments or small homes!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Living in an apartment, I wanted a soundbar that could give me a movie theater experience without disturbing the neighbors. This is the perfect bar for that (or for those in small houses) as it delivers excellent audio while not being too much. The Sonos technology scans the room to optimize sound output and I swear this one bar sounds like surround sound sometimes. Paired it with the Sonos mini sub and it is an excellent combo.
