The HW-S60B should fit comfortably under most TVs without drawing attention or dominating the room. If you mount it on the wall, you can be sure that it won’t intrude and you can focus on the TV instead of a giant black beamHugging the living room wall. It’s just a few inches longer and a bit narrower than the Beam Gen 2. To the naked eye, they look virtually the same, and both live up to their role of disappearing into the background. With its rounded edges and flat plastic sides that feature thousands of micro-perforations, the HW-S60B is as sleek and minimalist as it is small. While some users prefer a fabric cover, it’s less durable and harder to clean, which pet owners and parents are sure to appreciate.
The HW-S60B is a well-made, solid soundbar that feels heavy and premium in your hands - even if you won’t be holding it often. It has wireless Dolby Atmos and DTS: Virtual:X audio, both of which are meant to expand and enhance the soundscape by simulating virtual surround sound. ..
The TV has a dedicated center channel that will be appreciated, especially in an age where movie and TV dialogue is often drowned out by background music and on-screen activity. Compatibility with wireless subwoofers will also be welcomed by bass fans, while integrated AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi streaming for apps like Spotify, and Google Assistant/Alexa support round out the rest of the equipment list very well. The latter allows you to control your TV and issue the usual smart assistant commands by simply using the power of your beautiful voice.
The Sonos Beam Gen 2 is a good option for those who want an all-in-one speaker system that offers many features like DTS:X support. However, it does not support 3D audio, so if you are looking for a 3D audio capable speaker system, you may want to consider another option.
