The Sonos Beam Gen 2 soundbar brings theatre-like audio quality to your home by creating a virtual surround sound experience. It adds depth and dimension to different kinds of sounds, and also keeps audio clear at every volume level. It’s basically an upgrade you’ll greatly appreciate during both your solo streaming sessions and movie nights with friends.

On a regular day, you’d pay close to $500 to enjoy all these features, but that’s not the case right now. Amazon just knocked 26% off this top-rated soundbar, and is currently offering it for $369. The offer applies to both black and white colors. If you’d like to bring one home, it’s better to do it sooner rather than later. Deals such as this one don’t usually stick around for longer than a couple of days.

Multiple sound modes

The soundbar features a really sleek, no-fuss design. The two finishes are pretty basic, but that also means they’ll blend nicely into any existing entertainment setup or room. You can place it on furniture (such as your console) or even mount it on the wall.

Sound-wise, a lot is going on here. There’s Dolby Atmos support that spreads sound throughout the space for a dimensional, 3D effect. This makes it feel as if all that’s happening on the screen is actually taking place right in your living room. For example, you’ll hear footsteps moving across the room, while whispers seem to come from right beside you. And yes, it does feel creepy during horror movies. If you’re playing an action-packed game on your TV, expect all those gunshots and explosions to feel a lot more lifelike than they usually do.

The soundbar delivers well-balanced audio at every volume level. There are also a few dedicated sound modes, like Night Sound for when you’re streaming at night and don’t want to wake the entire house up, plus Speech, which adds more clarity to dialogues. It’s just as great for playing music, so you can listen to your favorite tunes and even catch up on podcasts during the day when you’re not watching something.

Controlling the soundbar is easy. You can use it with a compatible TV remote, the Sonos app, Apple AirPlay 2, or the touch controls present on it. It supports popular voice assistants, so you can also use your voice to manage smart home devices around your home!

The Sonos Beam Gen 2 soundbar is now available for $369 today, after a nice 26% discount. It’s an early Prime Day deal, but since Amazon has marked it as a limited-time offer, waiting around could mean missing out on a really good (and rare) discount.
