    Great sound with a wide soundstage. I’m looking forward to linking it with a pair of Era 100s for a surround effect.

    I was totally amazed at how good the speaker sounds. I purchased it for my TV on the lanai, and I was slightly concerned about the amount of bass it would produce. To say the least, I was extremely happy at the sound quality and the amount of bass it produced.

    Outstanding sound. The app is a little cluttered but once you go through the setup process the results are worth it. It performs well at low volumes with clear sound for watching tv or turn it up for room filling sound watching movies.

    The Sonos beam is a must have for any space. The sound quality is impeccable. Most would think you need a subwoofer, but the bass response of this sound bar is unmatched. I enjoy listening to content at any volume and night mode is perfect for watching movies/shows at night. My only down side was ordering open box “excellent”. The product arrived as promised, but was missing an hdmi cable. This is the second Sonos product I ordered open box that did not have all the contents that Best Buy promised.

    This is a good soundbar if you can do without a sub. But if you get the sub, it’s very expensive. I returned my Sonos back and bought the Polk Magnifi Max AX. This comes with a subwoofer and sounds a lot better for my master bedroom.

    Excellent soundbar, we have a sonos sub+ beam setup in our basement and loved it so much we had to buy one for our main living room as well. The soundbar on its own is great but I feel like it needs the bass for total enjoyment. It’s a little spendy but the bass adds such rich sound you won’t regret it.

    Really great sound. Love the design. But we are now getting a subwoofer. Does seem to need it for the best effect. Buying a Sonos to complete the surround sound. Will only work together with your tvs speakers so not possible to only use the soundbar for sound.

    The Sonos Beam hits the sweet spot for performance and price in a soundbar. Big sound from a small package. Easy connection/setup. The best app around. Easily expandable down the line with wireless surrounds and wireless subwoofer. Oh, and it streams music like a dream. Worth every penny.

    I absolutely love the sound quality of the sonos beam, it gives me that rich balanced sound that i was looking for, i use mine in my bedroom and it makes watching movies there great. Setting it up took a little time but after it was done, it was great.

    I love the sound quality of my Sonos Beam. It works with Alexa for convenience, is slim and unobtrusive, and was easy to use right out of the box. I’ve used it independently and with Amazon Echo Show.
