Customers are saying

Customers value the Beam (Gen 2) 5.0 Channel Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos for its unmatched sound quality, ease of use, and simple setup. The soundbar's compact size, impressive bass, and Dolby Atmos capabilities are also appreciated. However, some customers have reported occasional connectivity issues, and a few find the soundbar to be somewhat expensive and would prefer it to include a physical remote.

    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.

    Sonos Beam (Gen 2) - The Ultimate Soundbar with Vo

    I recently purchased the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) in black, and I have to say, I am absolutely in love with this soundbar! The setup was incredibly easy, and within minutes, I was able to start streaming my favorite music and movies with incredible sound quality. One of the things I love most about the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) is the voice control feature. It allows me to control my music and TV with my voice, which is incredibly convenient and easy to use. The sound quality is also top-notch, with deep, rich bass and crystal-clear highs. Another great feature of the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) is the ability to connect it to other Sonos speakers in my home for a truly immersive sound experience. And with the ability to stream music from a wide range of services, I never have to worry about running out of content to listen to. Overall, I would highly recommend the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) to anyone looking for a high-quality soundbar that is easy to use, packed with great features, and delivers incredible sound quality. It's definitely worth the investment! 5 stars all the way!

    Great Sounding Soundbar

    I have Vizio 2.1 and 5.1 soundbars on a couple of TV's in the house that I'm very happy with, but I opted to go with the Sonos Beam Gen 2 for my outdoor patio TV. And boy, I'm glad I did! The Beam is a great sounding soundbar. It has clean sound and adequate enough bass for me but eventually I will add a Sonos Sub Mini to really fill it out. The Beam integrates perfectly with all my outdoor audio systems, which includes the Sonance SGS 8.1 system, Sonos amp, Sonos Port music streamer, 50" Insignia TV, and a pair Polk Atrium 8 SDI speakers. I currently have three zones set up (pool, patio speakers, and patio TV) so I can listen to individual zones or all of them simultaneous for evenly balanced sound distribution throughout my entire 6700+ square foot backyard. Verified satisfied customer here.

    Only had to take some time to spend connecting it and updating but once it was completed, everything was smooth sailing. Perfect for a bedroom, or even a small-medium living room. The highs are great and register very well, the speech enhancement mode is a life changer when you want to stay at lower volumes. The lows sound very great, despite me not having a subwoofer yet, this helps by being able to hit a wide range of sounds so it doesn’t so “hollow” like some other all in one soundbars I’ve had. The mids sound phenomenal, playing music, watching movies, or even playing games, the 5 channels lets me hear directional audio better than other soundbars.

    Booooom.... This surround bar is amazing. We upgraded from our TCL bar for the living room tv after buying a new house and it came with a Sonos surround set up for the bedroom tv. The wireless subwoofer has such amazing bass and literally makes the couch shake. Very easy to set up and get working. Do not wait. go out and buy one today!!

    The Sonos Beam is a soundbar that has a small design but big sound. It is compact, easy to set up, and has excellent sound. It also has Alexa and multi-room music streaming. I have added sub-mini to the set-up.

    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, )

    The Sonos Beam was recommended by the Best Buy associate when we were purchasing our new TV. Initially he showed us a sound bar system by the manufacturer of the TV. I really wanted something with quality sound without having to have several speakers spread around the room. The 5 little speakers in this sound bar appealed to me. Additionally it could be mounted under the TV and also has the capability to add more speakers if we should ever want to. The sound is excellent. We did not realize when we purchased the Sonos Beam that it had the added features of voice control and compatible with Alexa to play music.
