Nice, clear sound w/out breaking the bank.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I already had the Sonos Arc, mini-sub, and Ones in my living room for almost a year before I decided to buy a new tv for my master bedroom. I went with an LG OLED 65" and soon after, I realized our old Yamaha needed to be replaced. Decided to go with the Beam 2 and though it's certainly not as powerful as the Arc, it more than does the job in any sized bedroom. Watched a few episodes of Chicago Fire and PD, and voices were crisp. I had set the Beam to night mode, so it quieted the bass from my neighbor upstairs. The Beam has decent bass for rumbles and music, but if you're looking for more, you can easily add a subwoofer. What I love about Sonos, is that you can listen to music in multiple rooms. On my WFH days, I often play music in my kitchen/living room and go back and forth to where my home office is set up in the bedroom. I plan to add some Era 100s too, so when i'm not in the mood to sit in a home theater in my living room, I can get that same effect from the bedroom.

Sonos is the Apple of speakers!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coming from a really terrible Bose sounder experience. Sonos knocked it out of the park. Sound is incredible, great bass, audio is crystal clear. Very easy to set up, making it seamless like Apple. I am happy, wife is happy too :) We have it paired with (2) Sonos One surrounds which complete the experience. Also, I love the fact that they don't force you to buy a bundle - I have a black Beam and white surrounds which fade in more into the lighter colored walls. A+

Quality sound!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Dolby Atmos without Dolby Atmos
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like it very much. This is def good for smaller rooms. It’s plenty loud enough, especially when paired with the 300’s and mini sub!!! Super easy to setup! Just to be clear, this does NOT produce Dolby Atmos sound, rather it can read atmos codec… so you’re not getting upward firing sound just to be clear.

Best Center Speaker I’ve owned
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was better than my old Bose Center speaker. I don’t have to turn the volume up as loud as I had to with my Bose Speaker to get the same volume of sound. Bose I had to set at volume 30; Sonos, I set at volume 12. I would have loved the bigger Sonos speaker; but, I had to stay within a budget.

Amazing sound for a Bedroom
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning the Arc Ultra, I knew this little soundbar would be great for our room, but it exceeded expectations. Fills out the room and the dialogue is great. Also connects to our sonos sound system downstairs so we can play music throughout the house on all devices. Worth the money IMO

Beam me up, Scotty
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We took the Sonos plunge 4 years ago, starting with the OG Beam in the master bedroom. An Arc, Sub 3, OneSLs, and a Ray followed. Our oldest has an older TV with dime-size speakers. Awful sound, especially for movies. So, they got the Beam 2 (resisted the urge to swap for our OG model!) for Christmas, and the reviews are in; “wonderful, even at default settings” and “now we can actually HEAR what we are watching” Helped with setup…took 5 minutes. And it does sound SO much better than TV speakers. Sonos for the win.

Great performance for its size!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Using soundbar for PC Gaming setup:
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am using the the soundbar in a Gaming PC setup paired with an LG C3 42" TV. I find that products geared for home theater usage generally perform better than computer designated counterparts. Since the LG C3 is technically a TV I set the soundbar up as I would in a home theater using E-arc. The Sonos Beam has decent sound and destroys computer designated soundbars in both features and sound quality. The compact size of the beam allows it to neatly fit under my computer tv/monitor stand on my desk. I would highly recommend the Beam if you are looking for something to enhance your gaming experience and have the tv/monitor to accommodate it.

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.

Lots of BOOM from such a small box.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I spent countless hours trying to decide which soundbar would be perfect for my bedroom and I settled on this one. My first Sonos Product so I approached with caution, I'm glad to say I was not disappointed. The Sonos Beam 2 comes packaged in a simple yet hefty box, very protected. It comes with an HDMI cable (to connect to your HDMI Arc/eArc connection), an HDMI to Optical conversion plug and the Power Cable. The Beam Gen 2 is quite a beautiful and sleek looking soundbar that would fit into any modern setting. Once mounted to the wall (with the help of the Sonos Beam Mount) Setting it up was simple enough (requires an App and preferably an IOS device). You will probably need to fiddle with your TV sound settings to actually get Atmos Out of this soundbar (if supported by your TV). Overall a terrific purchase (Especially during Black Friday). Again, my first Sonos Product but will definitely not be the last!
