EXPERIENCE IMMERSIVE DOLBY ATMOS SOUND WITH NEW THE SONOS BEAM
(GEN 2)
Sonos introduces the all-new and upgraded Beam (Gen 2) wireless sounder for your home entertainment needs. This latest generation of Beam now comes with support for Dolby Atmos sound. Experience panoramic sound and crystal clear dialogue for shows, movies, and games along with music from all your favourite services including Dolby Atmos Music. Beam (Gen 2) features a five-speaker design with a five amplifier setup that delivers rich, cinematic sound to your room. Connect the Beam (Gen 2) to your TV with the included HDMI cable and plug in the power cord to instantly experience rich sound.
NOTE: To experience Dolby Atmos Sound you need a compatible TV that supports Dolby Atmos and Atmos encoded content. For Dolby Atmos Music, Beam (Gen 2) requires a compatible streaming service.
SUBMERGE IN THE DRAMATICALLY REALISTIC SOUND WITH THE UPGRADED BEAM (GEN 2)
The team at Sonos have upgraded the Beam (Gen 2) from the inside to unlock its potential to deliver Dolby Atmos sound. The Beam (Gen 2) features a 40% faster chip than the previous generation to push the sonic limits for a soundbar this size. This chip creates two new audio paths for a virtual surround sound experience. With this chip embedded the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) has the right bandwidth for it to map sounds in space for a 3D effect, whether you're watching a movie or listening to music.
FIVE-SPEAKER DESIGN WITH PASSIVE RADIATORS AND CLASS-D AMPS FOR CLEAN AUDIO
The Sonos Beam (Gen 2) has been carefully engineered to offer an immersive audio experience that plunges you into a cinematic action with waves of sound that capture every whisper and footfall. To enable this the Beam features five Class-D digital amplifiers that are perfectly tuned to match the five-speaker drivers and acoustic architecture. The acoustic design for the Beam integrates four full-range elliptical mid-woofers that ensure accurate mid and low-end output along with one tweeter for high frequencies to ensure you hear the faithful representation of the entire frequency spectrum. The Beam (Gen 2) also incorporates three passive radiators that enhance low frequencies for balanced, powerful sound.
ENJOY PERFECT TUNING, SPEECH ENHANCEMENT AND NIGHT SOUND VIA THE SONOS APP
With the upgraded Sonos Beam (Gen 2) you can experience Trueplay tuning technology that perfectly adapts the sound of the Beam (Gen 2) for the unique acoustics of the room it is placed in so your content always sounds just the way it should. The updated chip enables advanced audio processing to ensure balanced and high-quality sound from wall to wall even at low volumes. The Beam (Gen 2) also comes with a dedicated Sonos App that lets you connect to your favourite streaming services and enable Speech Enhancement Mode and Night Sound mode along with EQ adjustments on the fly. The Speech Enhancement mode allows for greater clarity of human voice when enable and the Night Sound mode reduces the intensity of loud effects and enhances quieter ones. You also get access to EQ settings to change the Bass, Treble and loudness of the speaker.
NOTE: Trueplay Tuning Technology requires an iOS device to function.
EASY CONNECTIVITY WITH WIFI, ETHERNET AND AIRPLAY 2 WITH TV REMOTE SYNCING

To facilitate quick connectivity, the Beam (Gen 2) is equipped with WiFi and an Ethernet connection that allow the Beam to connect to your favourite services.
