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.

    By far the best sound bar for an affordable price. Reviewed and listened to different products for weeks to test before we bought, and this product (paired with the subwoofer mini!) was far ahead of the others. Great price, room filling sound of high quality. Easy to set up with the app and pair to my tv, and we also love using it to play music while hanging around our house!

    Amazing sound out of this little bar. I was overly surprised at how great it sounds in our large living room. Super easy to set up and I loved how the true sound feature works for an open room. Definitely don't pass on this one. The sub woofer mini made it even BETTER!

    This is my second Beam and the iteration has really blown me away. Like all Sonos speakers, it's incredibly easy to set up, offers endless customization and sounds amazing. I have this in my office with the mini sub and a pair of One's for surround sound and it sounds just as good as a much more expensive system. The Dolby Atmos is incredible, voices are clear and it excels at playing music as well. I've had Bose and Sony sound systems and Sonos is top dog for me.

    The speaker sounds very good. I cannot believe Sonos does not use bluetooth (only wifi) and this is disappointing. Having to use the Sonos app rather than simply bluetoothing to the speaker to play music is annoying and the app is very clunky and for some reason does not like to play certain songs or stations.

    Sonos is not bad. This is my first sound bar. I was torn between the beam and Bose one. But after hearing demo in store. I grieviated towards the beam! Music sounded great on it. I've had a few hiccups with mine on the sound just quitting on me during a program, because it thought my smart device was on a different network. So, I've had to restart it several times a month, when I first got it. Which was a pain. Also, I didn't realize that the optical cord end piece had a cover on it, till I read some posts online about why the cord was always popping out of the tv.

    Love my Sonos speakers! The Beam was my most recent purchase. Bought this for my "Lounge". I use it for watching movies/TV & also for jamming to backing tracks. I paired the Beam with 2 Sonos 5's. Excellent sound quality & the app is super easy to use.

    The set up was actually a bit of a nuisance, and I'm not sure if that was due to how everything else on my end was already set up, or if the app and general software are just a bit finicky and confusing. However, once that initial hurdle was passed, I quickly fell in love with the sonos beam. Using it is easy peasy. The sound is great. It's full and brings any movie/show and song to life. The materials are good quality, and somehow it even looks sort of nice sitting on our media console. This has been an absolute game changer and I can't wait to add to it as time goes on.

    I replaced two old TV sound bars with Sonos Beam Gen2. They are Super Easy to set up and the Sound is awesome. Such a big improvement. We can now hear what people are saying, It also connects to my iPhone and I play music through the soundbar and two separate speakers I have placed in other rooms. Robust! Awesome Sound!

    The sonos beam is a great soundbar. It looks good and sounds amazing. Easy to setup but unfortunately the app can be a bit laggy. The app allows to control volume but also change EQ settings. The feature i used the most is voice booster to hear people talk in movies. Highly recommend for around $350

    I purchased the Sonos Beam for my bedroom and just like most of all of other reviews it has delivered everything I wanted. I’ve now got crisp and clean dialogue and a great stereo image moving objects to the front left and right of the room that my tv just couldn’t do. I also got the mini sub and rear surround speakers for a complete 5.1 system. Super easy to connect and get going!

    Nice bar. Clear sounds and has plenty of bass if needed. Clear sound and nice expanded sound if needed. We chose this one over the Bose. This unit does not have Bluetooth hookup but that's ok with us. You have to use the Sonos app to setup and adjust.

    Honestly cannot this of anything I don't like about this soundbar. I enjoy the ease of use of all Sonos products and this is an amazing addition to my game room. I returned the Ray to make the move to this sound bar and I am so happy that I did. Sound is just what you expect from a Sonos product. Did not want a sub with the system in this room and the beam has enough bass to compensate for not having a stand alone one.
