Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the exceptional sound quality and ease of use of the Beam (Gen 2) 5.0 Channel Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos. Many appreciate its convenient size and straightforward setup process, while some find the price point to be a drawback and have experienced occasional issues with the mobile application. The soundbar's Dolby Atmos capabilities and bass response also receive positive feedback.

    I was very underwhelmed with this sound bar. I bought with the hopes of building an amazing home sound system slowly as Sonos is very expensive but high quality. I loved the very simple set-up, connected seamlessly to my WiFi and the Sonos App was awesome. If i was to buy more speakers they would also quickly and seamlessly connect. My review of my above statement is a 5+. However, this particular sound bar did not meet my expectations for the almost $500 price. The sound range was very limited and did not fill my small living room like i thought it would. The sound was relatively crisp with voices and basic nlises, however, there was little to no base or surround tyoe sound unless i listened to music really loud and was in the dining room 5 steps up from my living room. I returned this sound bar and almost bought the larger sound bar, but for $900 and needing to spend another $1500 to buy a Subwoofer and surround speakers i decided to go another direction. If i was independently wealthy i would spend the 3k+ to build an amazing home sound system as im sure its the best sounding and intuitive system out there. Just didnt work for me who wanted something i could enjoy for under $1,000.

    Love it has very clear audio/sound for a smaller sound bar overall 8 out of 10. Only thing I would do to give a 10 is a little more bass and higher highs . Mid are a 9 out of 10 great for a starter set. Would recommend to pair with the surround to get a fuller experience.

    I have purchased three different sound bars and did not expect the versatility and quality of sound that the Beam 2 delivers. It is not cheap, but the quality performance means it is good value. Happy man!

    It works great as a sound booster for your TV in a smaller area like a bedroom. I wouldn't use it in a living room or an area that you want good surround sound, but as i bought it to boost my little 43" TV it's perfect. It's the 3rd Sonos bar i have, the other 2 being arcs, and they are such well made products

    I use this as a computer speaker via an optical conversion. It's great and because it's a Sonos it's very easy to change over to pick up the TV or other home audio.

    Probably the best sound bar in this price range, I have not found another that sounds as good as the beam does for this price range.
