    Have not hooked it up yet when I tried quite difficult but I am not computer savvy. Takes a lot of time to set up especially figuring out the technical stuff.

    Sonos is always top quality. But i'm concerned with the ever changing electronics this bar will be obsolete quickly.

    I bought this speaker to use with a projector, and it’s surprisingly great sound even without a sub or surrounding speakers. Very happy with the purchase!

    I have close to ten Sonos products and each one performs beyond my expectations. The Beam 2 is no different. I’m constantly surprised by the sound profile coming from this unassuming little bar. It is fantastic!

    I was hoping volume would be louder. no more than other expensive soundbar, However, clarity at certain times is definitely noticeable. I DO hear more sounds. Streaming music through SONOS is IMPRESSIVE. I'm not sure if I can use it where internet is not available (camp). Internet is necessary for hook up.

    Pleasantly surprised that it was better than expected. It delivers a noticeable improvement on base over my old Bose Solo 5. I does a good job filling my smaller living room with sound. I don’t feel the need to add anymore speakers.

    I bought the Sonos beam for my son for Christmas. The set up with the app was very simple and was up and running in no time.The sound coming from the beam is very good for video games and music in a room such as a bedroom. Recommend this product highly.

    So much better than our previous sound bar. Just wish there was a way to see the volume increase or decrease on the TV like was available previously.

    Packs a punch. Great sound bar for casual TV viewing. We have it in our living room that merges into our kitchen. Throws clear sound for TV, also great to use for music around the house with our other Sonos products.
