Spiegel TestsSoundbars unter 1000 Euro im TestReleaseJune 2025
  • PositiveCan be integrated into a Sonos system
  • Positive Sound from films and TV sounds very good
  • Positive Small, light and visually discreet
  • NegativeWeak music playback
  • Negative Poor bass presence
  • Negative Few connection options

The Beam is a successful addition for anyone who already owns Sonos speakers. It significantly enhances TV sound, but is weaker when it comes to music playback. The small dimensions make for a discreet appearance, but the sound lacks volume.
