It has 4 full-range woofers, 1 tweeter, 3 passive radiators, 5 Class-D digital amplifiers and a 5 far-field microphone array. In other words, you get crisp dialogue from movies, echo cancellation, and of course a very rich and warm bass.
- Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa: SONOS has the title as the first audio company to give its users the choice of voice assistants. Whether you set up Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa on your SONOS Beam, you can now control other smart and compatible devices with your Beam. The Beam transforms into a smart assistant. With the Google Assistant, you can configure it to recognize your voice so it can give you customized notifications when you return home at the end of the day.
- Super easy setup: Almost as simple as plug and play. Both devices need to be plugged into a power source and the TV. Once that's complete, link them to their respective devices and they're ready to go!
- Make your TV smart: It's time to upgrade that TV setup without spending money on a new television. The Chromecast Ultra is a perfect pebble-shaped device to plug into any regular TV and start streaming over 3000 entertainment apps like Netflix, Prime Video, HBO. Watch live sports, news or play games. Stream anything you are watching on your smartphone straight to your TV. Connected to SONOS Beam, you can use the voice assistant to control the Chromecast Ultra.

A combination of these two devices is ideal to enhance the entertainment experience regardless of the size of your room. With the Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa in SONOS Beam, play music hands-free. Furthermore, if you use the Google Assistant on Beam, ask it to play movies, TV shows or videos through Chromecast Ultra on your TV.
A Beam of smart sound!
The SONOS Beam not only emits incredible sound but gives you the power to adjust the audio for those difficult movies. Sometimes movies have very loud action sequences in comparison to the dialogue. Instead of adjusting the volume every 5 minutes, the Beam has a button for it. You can make the dialogue louder or reduce the sound automatically when it's expected to be loud.
Needless to say that adding the voice assistant increases the functionality of the SONOS Beam to limitless. Set up routines, ask it to dim the lights, lock the doors or just ask random questions like “play that album with 4 people crossing the street”. Expert Reviews
