    Great product in a small package. Exactly what I needed for my OLED tv setup. Only complaint is lack of vol figure display when changing it from the remote and voice clarity still sucks even with a sound bar on some movies, but that might be because of the content itself. Consider getting a subwoofer for better results.

    I bought the arc for my family room and I was really impressed with the sound. My next purchase was this beam for my bedroom and I’m happy with the way it sounds I’m a smaller room. The only difference is that there’s a dramatic change after doing the trueplay on the arc, and the beam sounds the same after completing it. I’m just left wondering if my bedroom has good acoustics or the beam not doing its job to fix them. Besides that, I’m happy with my purchase.

    I've always bought cheaper soundbars and they would all go out within a year or so. My brother finally talked me into buying a Sonos and it's game changing. The sound is great, so crisp and clear and not too bad of a price. Waiting for the second gen arc to come out and I may have to upgrade to it. The connectivity is easy and love how you can pair it with the sub and a few surrounds. 10/10.

    Powerful, sleek looking and easy to set up. Use it via an app and plug-and-play. Set up and working in mins. Not too big (or small) either. Looks great sat in-front of the TV.

    On recommendation of Geek Squad tech, I bought this to replace Samsung's new skinny soundbar, which was glitchy. The Sonos is easy to operate and sounds great. Only wish it could remain connected to WiFi while connected to a Bluetooth source.

    The Sonos Beam delivers amazing sound for its size and I like the modular concept that lets you expand and add more speakers whenever you want. The setup is simple and easy too — I’m a fan now.

    Coming from a Denon Dolby Atmos Receiver with Definitive Technology speakers. I wasn't sure I wanted to switch to a soundbar. That being said this soundbar with the subwoofer is very impressive. The dialogue is crystal clear with the right thumps when needed in movies and TV shows. The music just sounds amazing. It also blends well into my Google Home environment. Overall I love the look and sound that this thing produces.
