Need a compact soundbar upgrade ahead of the World Cup? This four-star Sonos Beam (Gen 2) is now 20% off at Amazon
Great sound for the price and size
The World Cup is only a matter of weeks away and now is the ideal time to upgrade your home theatre setup. After all, if you can’t be there in person, you want to absorb the atmosphere somehow, right? One way to do that is with a great soundbar, so how about this Sonos Beam (Gen 2) at Amazon for £359 (was £449).
That isn’t quite the lowest price it’s been, but as you can’t return to last summer or Black Friday, it’s more than good enough as it is. The Sonos Beam (Gen 2) is often at its RRP of £449, so this is a chunky discount.
The soundbar is a good yet compact device, so it easily slides into your home setup without being too bulky. It offers vibrant bass, super clear dialogue, and Dolby Atmos support, so it’s an excellent all-rounder for the price.
Today’s best soundbar deal
Anything by Sonos is a great option if you want to improve your TV’s audio quality. The Sonos Beam (Gen 2) offers a wide soundstage, Hi-res audio compatibility, and great support for streaming music, radio, and podcasts over Wi-Fi without turning your TV on. You even get a 3D surround sound effect via its Dolby Atmos support. So, if you want an audio upgrade for the World Cup, or for watching all of your favourite movies and TV shows, ot’s an ideal addition to your living room.
Our Sonos Beam (Gen 2) review goes into depth about what it offers, giving it four stars. We called it “the perfect soundbar for smaller spaces” thanks to it sounding “fantastic” and fitting “small spaces perfectly.”
It has virtual Atmos, which doesn’t entirely rival the best Dolby Atmos soundbars, and there are no upfiring tweeters, but it’s still well worth the investment.
We considered it the best mid-range soundbar among the best Sonos speakers thanks to its power within a compact shell. It’ll be ideal for the World Cup, but it’s also good for simply listening to music as well as watching TV.
If you want one of the best soundbars without spending a fortune, the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) is a good option. While you’re creating the perfect setup for a summer of sport, take a look at the best OLED TV deals going on too.
