Sonos Beam Gen 2 - Black - Soundbar with Dolby Atmos

All I can say is wow. The sound and that it is Alexa enabled is amazing. It was simple to set up. Took minutes. We will most likely purchase another for out living room.

It took me a long time to pull the trigger on this soundbar. I read review after review. Why did I want a sound bar....I have a Samsung Smart "Big Screen" TV but was always dissatisfied with the sound quality from the on board speakers, even when I tried the different settings. My wife did not want lots of speakers and "stuff" but was ok with a neat sound bar. I looked for something with reasonable reviews and not over the top expensive. After much work I eventually selected the Sonos over several alternatives.It arrived and I set it up using the instructions, worked straight from box, no issues at all, so 5* for that. Second, the immediate difference in sound quality was great improvement over the on board TV speakers, I switch from TV to soundbar several times to make sure I was just not being biased because I wanted the soundbar to be better, it was, so 5*. I then scrolled through my FIOS channel selector and selected big sound movies, sports with crowd background, studio debates, nature shows with animal sounds with narration, cartoons and studio news programs, they all sounded better on the Sonos so another 5*. Lastly the looks, it is sleek enough to be unobtrusive and sits on a shelf under the TV without really being noticeable at all so another 5*.Overall I am very pleased with the decision to purchase this soundbar. I can't vouch for how much better or worse it is than any other soundbar, but it was worth the money for how much better it is compared to the TV speakers

We downsized from a 6 speaker / Big amp to this and the base unit. We have a smaller room and it's perfect. The sound is crisp and it has reasonable base. We did go ahead and add the smaller base unit and for us it sounds great. Plays the TV and music off my phone. It was a easy setup and it basically a plug and play.

Customer should know that this product is misleading to the consumer when I received it on Saturday. My wife gave it to me on Sunday. I spent the whole evening putting it up in programming. It only need to find that it did not have any volume whatsoever when it came to streaming for my computer when you went to the TV the volume went up a little, but that is all I contacted the manufacturer through Amazon. The manufacturer told me that the profit margin on this product was great for Amazon and you need to go back to Amazon to get a return. Amazon told me to go back to the manufacturer so I sit here wondering why do I have to go back-and-forth why can't they honor the return policy? Meanwhile, the cost of this item has gone down but still being sold. Someday honesty will take place but for me it's not today. Think twice before you purchase they promise you all kinds of things but good luck on getting him to honor it my name is Randy. I have retired so I live on a fixed income, but the grid out there is overwhelming. Thank you.

I bought a Cambridge Soundworks 5.1 speaker system and a JCV receiver at Best Buy in 1995. Although only the left, right, and center speakers are from the original set, I’ve kept the same basic set up using a Harmony Ultimate universal remote to access. But OLED burn in on my LG made it necessary to get a new set. I bought a Hisense 65” as my set. I decided on this Sonos unit because of the price and the reviews. I also already had Sonos speakers and a subwoofer in my bedroom. After some misunderstanding involved in all the new technology TVs use now, I now have Beam, Apple TV, and 4K disk player on my new system. I played a little Masters of the Air involving n air battle. Flak was exploding over my coffee table and planes were crashing near my kitchen. I was apprehensive about the simulated Atmos but it sounds great. I’m sure upward-facing speakers would be nice but the bombs were bursting in my living room air.

Totally worth the money. I didn’t realize how little I could hear before I got the sound bar. I really can’t describe the difference.

This is the small (about 24 inches) Sonos sound bar for a television. The sound is okay. It works with other Sonos equipment including a wireless subwoofer and WiFi surround speakers that connect flawlessly. I like the whole system. Sonos advertises that some kind of Sonos technical magic allows this small sound bar to offer stereo separation equivalent to much larger units. Sadly, the laws of physics continue to apply.

Real good sounds
