"You'll find carefully designed curves, slick touch controls, and a compact chassis that fits on any console and below virtually any TV. The Beam's sound quality is among the best in its class, with only Bose's Smart Soundbar keeping pace. While the Bose bar provides better Dolby Atmos effects thanks to dedicated upfiring drivers, Sonos' bar offers more low-end muscle and impressive frequency balance, along with some solid virtualized Atmos effects."
"As with other Sonos products, the Beam Gen 2 is loaded with networking features, including tons of supported streaming services over Wi-Fi in the Sonos app, third-party connectivity like Apple AirPlay and Spotify Connect, and the ability to connect with other Sonos speakers in surround sound or as part of a multi-room audio system. The Sonos app has had its issues of late, but Sonos has spent plenty of time and toil fixing it since its relaunch with the Sonos Ace."
Sonos Beam Gen 2 combines compact, refined design with strong audio performance and versatile connectivity. The soundbar delivers balanced frequency response, notable low-end, and respectable virtualized Dolby Atmos effects, while Bose's competing bar offers stronger upfiring Atmos imaging. The Beam Gen 2 supports Wi‑Fi streaming through the Sonos app, Apple AirPlay, and Spotify Connect, and can integrate with other Sonos speakers for surround or multi‑room setups. Setup uses HDMI eARC for simple TV remote control. Recent Sonos app stability improvements have increased reliability. The current Prime Day pricing makes the Beam Gen 2 a compelling value for upgrading a TV audio system.
