    The Sonos Beam Gen 2 Sound Bar is definitely worth spending more for. Delivers theatre quality sound, has a useful smartphone app, will play music streaming services and is Alexa compatible. If you're upgrading your sound bar, this is the one to buy.

    I got this for my husband as a gift. He was/is a happy human. No complaints from him. I.was under the impression this was a easy set up, along with the app. We have had this for a little while, there has not been any issues.

    I have owned many Sonos products and even have an Arc in my living room, but I am blown away at how good this thing sounds in my bedroom. The highs and lows are crystal clear, I really can’t believe how good it sounds for how small it is.

    Excellent sound quality. I have hearing loss and had been using closed captioning with my Bose system, but have been able to turn it off with my Sonos. Sound is definitely more clear and vibrant.

    I have had many Sonos products and the Beam is consistent with quality and simplicity. The sound is great and I look forward to pairing with the sub in the future. Note that this does not have an optical audio input and only the HDMI ARC input.

    The sonos ecosystem is very good, and the sound on the mid level soundbar is very surprisingly good even without a subwoofer.

    Sonos does what it does very well and this version of the Beam is a great improvement. The first version was great and so is this one. Great sound quality especially for the small footprint.
