    Love this sound bar worked perfectly with my TV and the art feature worked very well with the TV and allowed for a really good sounding surround sound

    Do you need to hear the voices on the TV clearly. Then this is the product for you it is compact has a bright sound and is easy to set up. And if later on you need bigger sound or more speakers it’s wireless so all you have to do is pick up additional products. I was able to set up the app on my phone and hook up the speaker and do the soundcheck in just a few minutes very easy to set up.

    I was concerned I would need a sub-woofer to go along with this, but it is great by itself. Very seamless to setup with Sonos app and also integrates well with the HDMI ARC so I don't need a separate audio control. Nice job Sonos!

    Coming from a gen 1 beam I like the new look of the grille versus the fabric on the old model, looks more like the Arc. Sound is slightly improved and now works with atmos which is great, my only complaint is that they raised the price $50, still worth the money for sure and works with surrounds and the sub if you need more volume and bass.

    We thought it was not as clear on dialogue as a Bose. Otherwise we liked everything else. The sound for action films was great. Easy to use. Having to use an app on the phone was also not the easiest if more than one person wants to control it. We ended up returning it & purchasing the Bose Ultra 900.

    Sonos is the best sound, made easy. Setup and installation are a snap, the interface for operation is intuitive, and the sound quality is as good as it gets. Having made the choice to replace my slightly less expensive Samsung sound bar with this much more capable unit, I couldn’t be happier

    Sounds Good but costs plenty

    The Sonos Beam Gen 2 sound bar by itself was an improvement over the best sound that I could get out of our new HiSense 65" U8K TV, but it still needed the mini subwoofer (that I also purchased) to provide enough low end. That pairing sounds pretty good (and I am picky) up to medium-loud volume levels (which I don't wish to exceed), but it also came close to costing as much as the new TV - and that was an eyebrow raiser for me. I should also mention my experience with the SONOS App: I had an original iPhone SE which was not capable of running the App correctly because its iOS version maxed out at 15.x. That caused me to waste a couple hours trying to get the App to work and eventually call Sonos customer support just to find out that I would need to use a newer iPhone with iOS 16 or higher on it. With a newer iPhone, the App worked fine, but it would have been better if that requirement was in the instructions, or if the App would have complained right away with that detail instead of having it run enough to just cause frustration on an older iPhone.

    This speaker is pretty amazing, I didnt want all the clutter and it works perfect. The Sonos app to calibrate it is amazing as well. I will update and add more speakers to this set up, to get that full surround sound through out the living room.

    This BEAM GEN2 sound bar is small with a great sound. I had recently purchased the ARC and went back to the BEAM GEN2 since I was very impressed with the performance compared to the ARC for the fraction of the price. I’m planning on purchasing another unit for the basement as well.

    Using this with the Sonos sub mini and 2 Sonos ones gen 2 in my bedroom. They provide a balanced, room feeling sound. The system can go really loud. It’s an expensive set up compared to others but I’m more than pleased with my purchase.

    I already have a Sonos Arc but was looking for a smaller soundbar that would fit better in a small room. This works great, and has the hdmi connection to directly connect to tv. Sound is good and the size makes it a better choice for smaller rooms. I'll probably pick up another to connect to master bedroom tv.

    This is a great soundbar. Sound is clean and crisp. Some people probably won’t need to add a subwoofer but I do enjoy the extra bass. I like that you can add to the system.

    I was originally worried it wouldn’t produce sound big enough to fill the size of my living room, however I was more than pleasantly surprised with how easily it’s able to fill the room. Easy to set up and easy to use. I’ve seen a lot of complaints about the app, but honestly once it’s set up it’s super easy to navigate.
