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.

    So excellent. Design, home theater integration, quality, compact, perfect. Twelve year home Sonos user and this addition doesn't disappoint. Replaced Sony soundbar in the bedroom with Sonos Beam.

    Great sound and decent bass without the bass module. Haven't had a chance to try Dolby Atmos as yet. The soundbar design is just right for setting in front of the TV. I would have liked it if it had one more HDMI input. Definitely like the fact that I can connect it to Alexa!

    The sound is great, but my experience wasn't as seamless as I hoped. It worked well in the first few hours but then it started glitching. Sometimes there is no sound, sometimes there is, etc. Stereo pair of two Homepod Minis although do not provide the same bass, they do provide what I care about - great dialogs, good sound stage, and seamless integration with my Apple TV 4K. And much cheaper

    Best wifi speaker system

    The quality of this speaker is great. Vast improvement over my TVs built in speakers. Dialogue is clearer and overall sound balance. It's best for smaller rooms or for someone who doesn't demand a expensive surround sound setup. But additional Sonos speakers and sub woofer can be added in the future to achieve an immersive surround sound 5.1 system. Things of note: •You will need a smart device to download the app to setup and update your Sonos device. •No remote to control volume, it will either need to be done through the Sonos app, or if your TV remote supports it, it would need to be programmed to control your soundbar, or through ARC hdmi port through your TV.

    Love them , gives me the extra salad I need. I like the fact that they are small enough to fit in front of my television, big screen without obscuring my vision.

    Very nice sound in a compact package for gaming, cable, and streaming. Using the app to fine tune the bar’s output for the space makes a noticeable improvement, though the sound really is quite good out of the box. I hadn’t wanted to spend so much on a soundbar, since I really hadn’t wanted a soundbar at all, but my TV’s down firing speakers are terrible, and cheaper compact soundbars didn’t work for my space. I am very happy that the Beam gives me reasonably well balanced sound in a single unit that’s roughly 2’ long. I’m not a fan of the lack of remote, since there are times I don’t want to use voice control, and having to unlock my mobile device to get to the controls in the app is inconvenient at best. I’d also prefer to have a visual numeric value assigned to the volume (there isn’t one). It helps me quickly get to the volume level I want for specific circumstances.

    Compared the beam 2 to the Arc in the store, with and without sub. As I wanted this for music as well as TV, I felt the Beam actually sounded better than the Arc for music, and still pretty good for TV. Have since added a Sub and IKEA Symfonisk as surrounds, and the overall system is fantastic. Unobtrusive, really good definition and easy to listen to. Always thought of Sonos as being over priced and more about the multi room and streaming services. But this is a really high performing audio system and great value compared to >$1000 systems.

    What an awesome sound bar! This is my fourth Sonos purchase and it did not disappoint. Sounds great, easy to set up, and helps with house surround sound too. Wouldn’t trade it for anything ekse

    Definitely a really good starter sound bar to go for, was an easy setup, quick and streamline, packs a punch for a very small bar, pair it with a sub mini and you got a really good setup, by itself it has very good bass for what it is, I’d recommend on it’s and paired with a sub

    This is an amazing soundbar. I paired it with my Era 100s and music sounds amazingly. It's good for movies but I eventually ned to get the Sub or sub mini to give movies a tad more punch.

    Speaker works well and is very easy to set up within the Sonos app. Like all Sonos products, the sound is excellent and this speaker allows me to play the sound from the TV it is connected to over the rest of the Sonos speakers installed in my house.

    I purchased this sound bar because I heard it sounded better than Bose. It is absolutely correct!! The sound bar and base module sound like a movie theater experience. If you live your music with allot of base then this is the sound bar for you!!!
