OVERALLDecent sound; but irritating that volume needs to be different between TV / DVR/ Netflix - whereas my TV's internal speaker didn't have this issue

With the Sonos Beam, there are compact speakers all around

This in many ways is exactly what I needed -- a sound bar to override the bad speakers on my TV with great sound from the Sonos System

I loved my current speakers but wanted this

the sound is night and day, yes, for nearly double the price, so I still consider the beam a great speaker, it all depends on what you really want from your sound setup.

I’m sure the neighbors were not happy and it risks blowing the speakers.

while it’s not the end all as far as sound quality goes, it’s a $400 multi-talented speaker that blends superbly in to decor, and will satisfy 90% or more of users desire for sound quality.

The speaker sounds great but without its smart speaker skills, it's just a speaker

This is a cheap Sonos speaker both in quality and price

Sonos One speakers is superior to the sound from a single Beam

The Sonos Beam is really a great sounding speaker system that happens to take up very little space

It may turn some off being that it is a mostly closed ecosystem, but there is a system they sell that allows you to connect other speakers to the ecosystem if you'd like.

Well, everyone knows that soundbars aren't as good as freestanding speakers, but based on my good experience with the One - really crisp low mids, that "ported" sound (pioneered by Bose), good deep bass, and clear treble - I was expecting something similar from the Beam.

I knew it was going to sound good, as my other 5 Sonos speakers sound great, but seriously was astounded by the wide sound field of this mighty little speaker!

It does blow the TV speakers completely out of the water and fills the room with high quality sound

I had already purchased two Sonos One speakers for music and loved them

I use this speaker every day and love it

The sound is great - a huge improvement over my Samsung TV's internal speakers

First, being a professional music with very picky ears, I have to say that Sonos REALLY knows how to make a good sounding speaker

In this set up all the speakers work together in a group like a single system

I had a Sony receiver with the Polk RM6750 compact speakers and subwoofer which sounded

I previously purchased a Sonos One speaker that sounds great, but took multiple set up attempts, connecting, disconnecting a number of times to finally get the speaker to stream wirelessly and work with Alexa reliably, though it finally did start working

This speaker is a beauty, small and sleek

LOVE IT!!I can't say enough about how fantastic these speakers sound

Beautiful speaker design as well.

Other than that it’s a great speaker.

They make great music speakers but aren’t ready for TV speakers

This speaker has blown me away.

I do love my other Sonos speakers though.

Final thought is that if you don't think of this as a soundbar strictly for use with a HDTV you might be thrilled to discover that you can have a great sounding stereo speaker that is sleek, well-built and can be placed in places you might not immediately consider such as the top of a hutch or possibly mounted up high on a wall

Very very sleek sound speaker

Sonos has some great quality speakers

Turned the TV off and the speakers stopped working.

Alexa is missing some featuresNo way to configure Xbox to control it directlyLG TV doesn’t allow 5.1 pass through, making this a very expensive stereo speaker setupCan turn tv on but not off using voiceExpensive, considering you pretty much need the subwoofer (sold separately) to get full range of soundNo power button or

I don't have any other Sonos devices yet, so I cannot comment on how it works in a larger Sonos ecosystem, but I can highly recommend this even if it is your only smart speaker in the house

We have a small / open living room and this is the only speaker for our wall-mounted TV; works awesome in that setting

The Bose also had an optical-in and the speaker was smart enough to switch to TV over audio

In which case, the speaker should be free

If you have other passive speakers already, it will not work with them at all (unless they are Sonos -

Perfectly sufficient for such a compact speaker

Incompatibilities with top brand TV’s is pretty unreal in this day and age

This HDMI ARC port issue may not bother you if you have a TV with multiple HDMI ports and they all support 4K and HDR, however on my Sony TV the only ports that support HDR are ports 2 and 3
