I did a lot of research online about the best soundbars available with in my price range. The Sonos Beam trumped the Bose Soundtouch 300 for price, sound and versatility. The added Alexa feature also saves you £89.99 as it is integrated in the Beam. The Sonos Beam is quick and easy to set up using your smart phone. The sound quality is excellent and the useful ’enhance speech’ feature come in use for quieter scenes. The sound quality is demonstrated even better with music being streamed through it, with the bass being clearly felt even with the volume at 50%. The maximum volume is extremely loud with near no distortion to quality, although your neighbours might not not feel the same way. Alexa works okay and the option to turn off your TV is a novelty (although the remote is just as fast). The main problem I find with Alexa is the inability to use Apple Music services with it, as this ‘skill’ is only available in US, Can and Aus. No news yet of when it will be available in the UK. Still, using your phone and Siri to stream to the soundbar via Bluetooth/WiFi is just as easy. In summary: A well designed soundbar with excellent quality sound and easy to use features. The Alexa feature is the same as a stand alone Alexa, but is limited by the inability to use Apple Music (my only negative).Read full review

While the sound is reasonably decent, the so called software come App that you need to both set it up and use it is absolute rubbish, and don't just take my word for it go online. To say it was flacky is an understatement, How on earth this company has gained a reputation of producing quality speakers I find quite incredible. I've worked in IT all my life and it took me hours to get the thing to work and even then it kept dropping out, a nightmare. Not counting Sonos make you setup an account wanting all your personal details prior to you being able to try and get the so called App come software to work. This then resulting in emails and notifications from Sonos? As a result of all this and still needing a small sound bar I purchased a Denon 550 far better sound with far better height, the Denon software come app worked first time and has worked ever since. Highly recommended by me and brilliant reviews online. I would never purchase any Sonos product again. Read full review

I was in two minds about buying the sonos beam but thought I'd try it. Its fantastic, easy to connect, even though my old tv doesn't have hdmi arc so I had to use the enclosed optical to hdmi adapter. The sonos app guides you through the set up step by step, very simple to follow. Sound quality is great and so much better than the standard tv speakers. Would thoroughly recommend.

Highly recommend the Sonos beam, this will make a huge difference to the sound from your TV. Bass is surprisingly good from an all in one unit and speech is very clear now (no more mumbling actors in programmes). Very easy to set up and connect with good control through the Sonos app. An extra benefit as well is that it can be used as a stand alone Sonos speaker or linked to others for music playback. Excellent......well recommended.
