Save $140: Amazon\u2019s latest Prime Day sale<\/a> is now underway, and one deal you won\u2019t want to miss slashes the price of the popular\u00a0Sonos Beam Gen 2 soundbar<\/a> to just $359 in both black and white<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t need to enter any discount codes, and there aren\u2019t even any on-screen coupons to clip, either. And unlike many Prime Day deals, this one doesn\u2019t require you to be an Amazon Prime member<\/a>, either.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\tSonos Beam Gen 2\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

On CNET\u2019s list of the best smart soundbars<\/a>, the 200-watt Sonos Beam Gen 2 received the award for best smart soundbar for smaller spaces. It can be used to stream radio, podcasts and audiobooks as well as music and TV.<\/p>\n

The Dolby Atmos surround sound technology provides a 3D effect, creating a crystal-clear panoramic soundstage that sounds like it\u2019s all around you. Just make sure you have a TV that supports Dolby Atmos and Atmos content. \u201cThis compact speaker makes your movies sound huge with its virtual surround capabilities,\u201d said CNET\u2019s home entertainment expert, Ty Pendlebury.<\/p>\n

To control your Sonos Beam Gen 2, you can use Wi-Fi to connect the Sonos app, your voice with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, Apple AirPlay 2 and your TV remote. Or simply use the touch controls directly on the soundbar to adjust volume, skip a track, pause music and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Assembly is especially easy because the soundbar requires only two cables. Plus, you can use smart Trueplay tuning, along with step-by-step instructions on the Sonos app, to easily set up your Sonos Beam Gen 2.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Alternatives you might like<\/p>\n

Sonos deals are as rare as hen\u2019s teeth, and that makes this Sonos Beam Gen 2 deal all the more noteworthy. But if you\u2019re looking to spend a little less, Bose also has a TV soundbar that\u2019s on sale for $199 currently<\/a>. It normally retails for almost $280, although it only comes in black, so it might not be the most aesthetic option for some homes. It does, however, feature Bluetooth and HDMI-ARC connectivity and comes with a handy remote control in the box.<\/p>\n
