Customer Reviews for Sonos - Refurbished Excellent - Beam (Gen 2) 5.0 Channel Smart Soundbar with Dolby Atmos - Black

I switched the original Beam for the Beam (Gen 2), and definitely noticed a difference. I installed this on a very old Sony TV, which does have a HMDI slot, and had a little trouble getting things to work, likely because of me. However, I highly recommend it, especially if you have an other Sonos products.
Pros: Easy To Setup, Easy to use, Superior Sound
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product is the best I have tried and I tired JBL, Zvox, LG Sound, and Bose. However it was not something that my parents could have connected. It didn't have very specific directions and no manual accompanying it. I had to go on line and scan a QR code and this is something my parents couldn't do or something my wife couldn't have done either. It is a shame because specific connection instructions included could have made it way easier and user friendly. I keep getting texts and emails telling me of more features about this product, but that is not the way I want to work installing something; I want clear steps. I would reccomend it to a friend if I knew their specific skills would allow them to figure out the connections, options and feature. To make any optional adjustments you have to down load an app to your phone and adjust from there.
Pros: Night Mode, Speech enhancement, Superior Sound
Cons: Difficult To Setup
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am using the Beam 2 on my Mac via Airplay 2. The sound for movies is excellent as is Apple spatial music. There's no small e-arc monitors/tvs available at the moment, so I can't fully utilize the speaker. I'm hoping that more manufacturers start adding e-arc to their devices moving forward. In the meantime, I am enjoying what it currently offers and look forward to having Dolby Atmos surround in future.
Pros: Easy to Set Up, Expandable, Free Control Options, Streams All My Music, and More, Superior Sound, Wireless

This is my second beam and area 100 set I've purchased and love the sound and ease of use. My wife and I have found ourselves seamlessly streaming Sonos radio for the majority of most days. I additionally love the simplicity of grouping rooms to play music throughout the majority of our house. We need more!!
