If you’re the type of person who hooks up your TV and starts watching content, you might want to reconsider your setup. A soundbar can completely change the way you experience content. And if you still need one, you can get one at a significant discount right now. The Sonos Beam Gen 2 is a compact Dolby Atmos soundbar intended to take the place of the thin speakers that come with TVs to create a wider and more immersive sound stage. It’s 25.6 inches long, 3.9 inches deep, and 2.7 inches tall; therefore, it should fit most television sets or sit on a shelf without being too large for your overall setup. Sonos has listed several key traits for this product, including vibrant bass, crystal-clear dialogue, and a panoramic sound field that will make watching movies, TV shows, and playing video games much more enjoyable.
A premium soundbar with simple connectivity options
The soundbar uses Dolby Atmos processing to create a three-dimensional surround-sound effect from a two-channel design. The use of Atmos support allows you to experience effects that appear to move within the room rather than staying where they were projected onto the screen. The movement and depth created by Atmos adds height to the compatible content. The Beam Gen 2 was developed to provide adequate sound levels for both quiet conversation and intense action sequences while maintaining audible dialogue. Hi-res Audio Support, along with Multi-room Audio Compatibility, allows users to enjoy greater detail and maintain sound alignment across multiple rooms when other Sonos speakers are added to the system.
The Beam Gen 2 offers HDMI, Wi-Fi, and Ethernet connectivity, allowing you to connect your TV to your network. To connect the soundbar to your TV, use the provided HDMI cable. If your TV does not have HDMI ARC, an Optical Audio Adapter is included in the box. With the soundbar connected via HDMI and/or Optical, it communicates with your TV via Wi-Fi, using the Sonos App, and also supports Apple AirPlay 2 for streaming audio directly from supported Apple products. In addition, the soundbar comes equipped with built-in microphones that let you use Voice Commands for Music, Volume, and Basic Smart Home Control without picking up your smartphone.
For just $369 instead of the typical retail price of $499, the Sonos Beam Gen 2 gives you a compact soundbar with flexible control options and room tuning to refresh your TV setup. Moreover, you won’t have to worry about buying additional equipment for a significant upgrade.
