With the addition of Atmos the room if filled with beautiful sound. Added a mini sub and 2 one Sl speakers to complete the surround sound. This system replaced a Bose 5.1 speaker system.
Pros: Easy To Setup, Superior Sound, Wireless Surround Sound
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice but user experience lacks

I've done the Trueplay to get the best sound quality for the room, but I feel like I am constantly adjusting volume. It will be quiet when people are talking in a show so I turn it up and then blasting as soon as there is any bass. I've adjusted the bass levels too but doesn't seem to fix it. Good sound quality though.
Pros: Superior Sound
Cons: Difficult To Setup, Unreliable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Sounds great and can't wait to push it to the limit!!

I was using a Bose sound at for my older 55" tv. It sounded like Bose but I wasn't able to control any tv functions. The thought of using 3 remotes was a deterrent so I brought it back and got The Beam. What a great sound bar! I was able to link it to my cable and Roku remotes without a problem and the sound is more than I could've asked for considering the cost. I can't wait to really crank it up!!
Pros: Dolby Digital 5.1, Easy To Setup, Easy to use, Speech enhancement, Superior Sound, Versatile

All I really need to fully enjoy audio/video streaming

I'm between houses with most of my two channel and surround sound gear in storage. In my rental I just wanted something to pair with a table top tv. What I got far exceeded my expectations and has really changed how I will approach an av room in my new house. High fidelity, crisp with girth and depth. Don't really need an amp or a subwoofer except in a very large room.
Pros: Easy To Setup, Easy to use, Versatile, Wireless Surround Sound

Love the sound, can't believe no backwards compatibility

I have plenty of Sonos products, so I'm writing this as a big fan of the platform and products. The Gen 2 Beam sounds great, as expected. The real problem is that I've invested so much in Sonos products that the Beam doesn't allow a Play:1 to be in same room with new Beam - should just work.
Pros: Superior Sound
Cons: Backward Compatibility
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
