Voice control is handled through a set of five mics, and this can link into Alexa, but also through Google assist and the app. The only real downside is that sound can get a little harsh on the highest levels, but unless you’re trying to shake your next-door neighbour’s house down, this really won’t matter.
There are no vertical drivers, with everything positioned around the edges of the bar. The sound quality is excellent, as you would expect from a Sonos bar, with four big drivers, three radiators, and one tweeter. Because of the size, the Beam will also easily fit into any home without issue, unlike some of the bigger bars on this list, and has the option for a linked Sonos sub, though this is quite expensive.Ĭonnections are handled through a digital optical connector, or a single HDMI connection with options for HDMI ARC, but there is no Atmos, unlike on the bigger Arc. It’s very pretty, with a rounded, modern design that comes in black or white. Controls are incredibly simple, with a top-mounted set of touch buttons, and an at a glance LED that can show you whether the soundbar is on, muted, and linked. Sitting at just 65cm wide, and a comparatively light 2.8kg (6.17lb,) the Beam is a light and easy bar to fit into your home set-up. It’s a much more approachable product than their old Playbar and sits at about half the price of the Arc, which is also on our list. The Beam is Sonos’ smaller, cheaper, more approachable soundbar.
