The editors didn't like
Only works with other Sonos speakers for surround sound and subwoofer. With a $699 Sonos SUB as the only subwoofer option
That's a pricey step
Distorts at high volume
Weak bass
No Dolby Atmos
Only 1 HDMI port
The lack of a subwoofer means the Beam lacks deep bass compared to sub-equipped competitors. You lose some connectivity options on TVs that lack ARC. Google Assistant and Apple AirPlay 2 haven't been added yet
No Bluetooth
Optional subwoofer is expensive
Small size means it can't fill larger rooms with sound
No support for DTS or any form of immersive audio (e.g
Dolby Atmos
DTS
X)
No support for high-resolution audio codecs
The lack of a subwoofer means the Beam lacks deep bass compared to sub-equipped competitors
Even some that cost less. You lose connectivity options on TVs that lack ARC. You can't switch between Google and Alexa on the fly and there's some lag with Googl
More HDMI ports would be nice
Hard to see if microphone is on or off

Aimant à poussières
Une barre de son compacte et connectée, c’est un produit qui a tout d’un pari risqué. Sauf que derrière la Beam, il y a Sonos et que pour le coup, le constructeur américain a fait un travail remarquable. Pour 450€, la nouvelle barre de son se positionne c...
Proposé au prix de 449 euros, la Sonos Beam est une excellente barre de son avec un prix contenu. Sa polyvalence lui permet un usage aussi bien dans la vidéo que dans la musique. Son évolution avec le support prochainement de Google Assistant et AirPlay 2...
Abstract: Un sistema davvero molto smart, semplicissimo nella configurazione, molto ben suonante. Conoscevo Sonos, provato molto tempo fa, nel tempo si è migliorato ed è arrivata anche la cassa portatile move. Unica cosa che nel frattempo la concorrenza è cresciuta...
Rapporto prezzo prestazioni eccezionale, Supporto smart encomiabile, Funziona benissimo anche da sola, migliora sensibilmente con due Sonos 1 a supporto
Manca un sistema di equalizzazione personale
Sonos Bem è un buon prodotto sia sotto il profilo della qualità audio che in quello tecnologico e smart: diventa un prodotto a nostro avviso eccellente se ne consideriamo il prezzo, al di sotto dei 500 Euro, quando altri prodotti concorrenti costano il do...
qualità audio, qualità costruttiva, assistente vocale, facilità d'installazione e uso, capacità di adattarsi a tutti i tipi di musica e film, compattezza,
per usare alcuni servizi dovrete avere la versione premium, non potrete usare da subito gli assistenti vocali,
Beam incarna perfettamente la filosofia dell'azienda, e porta con se i pregi e i - pochi - difetti che contraddistinguono tutti i prodotti Sonos. Tra i pregi rileviamo senza ombra di dubbio le capacità di adattamento della nuova soundbar va benissimo per...
Prestazioni sonore con film e musica, Dimensioni compatte, Rapporto qualità/prezzo
Non gradisce i volumi troppo elevati, Non è compatibile con dts e Dolby Atmos, Estetica minimale
La nuova piccola soundbar di Sonos ci è piaciuta molto, soprattutto perché non tradisce lo spirito di base di Sonos, volto a riprodurre egregiamente la musica. Le dimensioni compatte e il prezzo ancora accessibile ne fanno un buon ingresso nel mondo Sonos...
