Sonos Beam (Gen 2)
From music to films, the latest generation of Beam enriches all your entertainment with powerful and precise sound from wall to wall.
Description
High definition sound
Enhance your home entertainment experience with immersive sound, voice control, and an easy-to-use app.
Smarter on the inside
More beautiful on the outside
The new precisely perforated grille elevates the elegant design and blends seamlessly into your home, whether you place Beam on furniture or mount it.
Exceptional sound all around
Go deeper into every scene with spatial audio. Advanced processing creates phantom height channels for Dolby Atmos content to immerse you in a multi-dimensional soundstage. You’ll hear planes as if they’re flying overhead, sense footsteps moving across the room, and feel the music swell all around you.1
Crystal clear dialogue
Oscar-winning sound engineers helped fine-tune the Sonos Beam 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.
High quality at low volumes
Enjoy 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.

FAQ
Beam (Gen 2) features a faster processor and HDMI eARC connection, both of which enable support for higher resolution audio formats, including Dolby Atmos. This increased processing power also gives Beam (Gen 2) five speaker arrays compared to the first generation’s three speaker arrays. The design has been updated with a new grille, monochromatic finish and colour-matched cord.
A matching pair of the following speakers will work as surrounds: Era 300, Era 100, Sonos One (including SL), Sonos Five, Play:1, Play:3, and Play:5 (Gen 2). You can also use Sonos Amp to power in-wall, in-ceiling, or other passive speakers as surrounds.
eARC stands for enhanced Audio Return Channel. It allows full-resolution sound signals, including Dolby Atmos, to be passed from your TV to the soundbar.
Dolby Atmos is an object-based format for surround sound that designates different sounds to specific places in the room rather than channels, creating a more realistic experience by dynamically incorporating height, surround, and front channels.
No. Adding surrounds and a subwoofer will provide the best sound experience, but you can still enjoy Atmos with Beam (Gen 2) as a standalone soundbar.
You can use Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. While streaming with AirPlay 2, you can use Siri on your iOS device to control Apple Music.
Yes. Beam (Gen 2) will support Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Atmos content with an Apple TV 4K. For Dolby Atmos content, Apple TV 4K uses a high bandwidth format known as MAT and requires an eARC-capable TV. Some Dolby-certified TVs can convert Apple TV 4K Atmos content to an ARC-compatible format. Check with your TV manufacturer for compatibility.
Yes. We recommend using the Sonos Beam Wall Mount.
All generations of Sub will work with Beam (Gen 2).
No. Beam (Gen 2) can connect to TVs with eARC, ARC or optical outputs. For greatest compatibility, eARC is recommended.
If you connect to a TV with eARC, the Dolby audio formats supported include Dolby Atmos, TrueHD, MAT, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby Digital.
If you connect to a TV using ARC, the Dolby audio formats supported are dependent on your TV model and manufacturer. The TV may be capable of sending Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby Digital. An ARC connection cannot support TrueHD or MAT.
If you connect to a TV using the optical adapter, the Dolby audio formats supported are dependent on your TV model and manufacturer. The TV may be capable of sending Dolby Digital. An optical connection cannot support Dolby Atmos, TrueHD, MAT, or Dolby Digital Plus.
Dolby Atmos is dependent on the source material as well as the TV passing an Atmos signal through the HDMI port. If the soundbar is receiving an Atmos signal, this will be displayed on the Now Playing screen and Settings menu in the Sonos app.
The processing power in Beam (Gen 2) renders two additional audio channels through the five speaker arrays and uses psychoacoustic HRTF technology to give the impression of height. Arc has two internal speakers that physically fire audio upward for a true height experience.
If your TV supports CEC (TVs with HDMI will support CEC) and you have set up a voice assistant, you can control the TV with your voice.
Beam (Gen 2) requires the latest generation of the Sonos app (Sonos S2).
