Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the exceptional sound quality and ease of use of the Beam (Gen 2) 5.0 Channel Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos. Many appreciate its convenient size and straightforward setup process, while some find the price point to be a drawback and have experienced occasional issues with the mobile application. The soundbar's Dolby Atmos capabilities and bass response also receive positive feedback.

    Great product! I did not buy an additional speakers at this time but my very Techy son told me this one was good for future expansions! Had a bit of trouble with the setup but that is because I did not know my TV very well and did not use the right output. Once I figured that out NO trouble and we love it!

    Geek squad recommended this when they came to load my new tv. They convinced me to buy this because it’s wireless and swore up and down that I would get the same sound as my receiver and floor standing speakers. They lied. The sound is good but no where near what I gave up so I returned the speaker and sub. Sound should be better because this is not an inexpensive speaker and sub.

    If your looking for a loud theater like sound bar this is not the one for you. Even at max volume its not loud at all! My sumsung sound bar thats 7 years old id louder at 50. Now for the sound quality its ehhh for the price you can find so much better of a aounds bar. Im retuing mine and more then likey just keeping my odl sound bar.

    Sees to function well. Not really certain that a Sonos sound device is needed. I wonder why, if true, that the sound in newer TVs is not adequate. Curious.

    So saying NO to Sonos

    We intended to buy a simple bluetooth capable soundbar to use in a limited need workout room and we unfortunately let the Best Buy salesperson talk us into the Sonos Beam for its various features and "improved" online capabilities. Unfortunately, the features are virtually unusable as this device is seemingly dependent on very high capacity wifi to work with apps on the TV - despite being connected to HDMI arc. While the TV signal works fine and picture quality/playability is fine over 5g, the Sonos wifi dependency makes little sense. However, searching for troubleshooting issues, the other online complaints appear to point to this reality. Since its in our basement with limited wifi (despite the picture signal being fine and various devices in play to extend/boost our signal) there are numerous playability issues and the hardware itself needs to be frequently reset and reconnected to the HDMI ARC connector. Sound quality seems fine when it does work, but the frequent need to monitor, connect, reconnect and still not be able to use it with certain apps (Prime and Netflix in particular). It's a disappointing waste of money and space.
