Sonos Beam Soundbar Gen 2 Overview

From Manufacturer

Enhance your display's audio, interact with the Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, or Siri, and expand your Sonos ecosystem with the black 2nd gen Sonos Beam Soundbar. It features a five-driver design powered by five discrete Class-D amplifiers, plus built-in microphones that enable Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant voice control and Siri compatibility when paired with compatible devices. The 2nd gen Beam connects to the internet over Wi-Fi or through the Ethernet jack.

Beam, Evolved
A faster processor enables support for Dolby Atmos and creates two new audio paths for a virtual sound experience. Updated with a precisely perforated grille, the 2nd gen Beam looks just as good as it sounds and blends seamlessly into your home.
Made for Music
Stream music, radio, audiobooks, and podcasts from all your favorite services with detailed stereo sound that fills the room.
Dramatically Realistic Sound with Dolby Atmos Decoding
Dolby Atmos maps sounds in space for a 3D effect, so you experience planes as if they're flying overhead, hear footsteps moving across the room, and feel the score all around you (when used with a TV that supports Dolby Atmos and Atmos-encoded content).
Breeze Through Setup
Go from unboxing to unbelievable sound in minutes, with only two cables and step-by-step guidance from the Sonos app.
Crystal-Clear Dialogue
Oscar-winning sound engineers helped fine-tune the soundbar to make sure you hear every word and can always follow the story. For even greater clarity when characters whisper or the action intensifies, turn on Speech Enhancement in the Sonos app.
Tuned to Perfection
Trueplay tuning technology uses your iOS device to adapt the sound for the unique acoustics of your room so your content always sounds just the way it should.
High Quality, Even at Low Volumes
Advanced audio processing ensures balanced sound from wall to wall at any volume level. When you want to watch TV but need to keep it down, turn on Night Sound in the app to reduce the intensity of loud effects and enhance quieter ones.
Hands-Free Help
Ask Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant to set timers, check the news, control your smart home devices, and more; while streaming via AirPlay 2, you can use Siri on your iOS device to control Apple Music. Easily mute with the press of a button to off the mic. The LED light will also turn off so you know your voice assistant isn't listening.
Surround Sound, Simplified
Get an even more immersive experience with a subwoofer and rear speakers. Everything connects quickly and easily over Wi-Fi. Mix and match speakers to build the system you want over time. Simply add on when you're ready and enjoy listening all around your home and beyond. A matching pair of the Sonos One (including SL), Sonos Five, PLAY:1, PLAY:3, and PLAY:5 (Gen 2), or in-wall, in-ceiling, or other passive speakers powered by the Sonos Amp can be set up as surrounds. All generations of the Sonos Sub will work with the 2nd gen Beam.
Additional Features
  • Five Class-D digital amplifiers are perfectly tuned to the drivers and the speaker's unique acoustic architecture
  • Four full-range mid-woofers ensure faithful playback of midrange frequencies and maximize low-end output
  • One tweeter creates crisp high frequencies
  • Use the Sonos app to adjust bass, treble, and volume
  • Far-field microphone array that uses advanced beamforming technology
  • Multichannel echo cancellation enables quick voice assistant activation
  • Dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity
  • Compatible with Sonos S2 systems only

Sonos Beam Soundbar Gen 2 Reviews

Simple replacement of soundbar became a hassle

By Kent
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2026-04-10

It is a good soundbar with voice mode activated. It can be customized in the phone app but I was not pleased to be required to use the app to set it up. Ridiiculous and clumsy. I had to call tech support three times and, in the end, spend half an hour with the tech walking me through the setup app. At the end I had to get my magnifying glasses and a flashlight to read the faint print with the PIN number. Really, a PIN number on a soundbar as if it were an ATM or something.

Excellent purchase!!!

I have the Beam Gen 1 without Atmos, connected to two Sonos Ones. Does adding Atmos make a very obvious difference? Thanks.
Asked by: Moses
Upgrading to Sonos Beam Gen 2 for compatibility with Dolby Atmos would make a difference because of the additional channels of audio that are outputting from the system.
