Sonos keeps things compact with the new Beam Ultra soundbar, while promising better sound that can work effectively without a separate subwoofer (but can still work with one if wanted). This mid-sized soundbar has nine custom drivers, including two dedicated up-firing drivers to support true 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos. Its redesigned center channel is specially tuned to enhance dialogue, with four levels of AI Speech Enhancement available through the Sonos app.

The app is also your primary way to control the device, but the Beam Ultra has capacitive touch controls for play, pause, skip, and replay. It also has controls for volume, disabling voice assistant capabilities, and grouping and ungrouping other Sonos devices.
