Sonos unveils the Beam Ultra, a new midrange soundbar designed to improve surround sound performance. The company positions it as a refreshed Beam model with “true 7.1.2” Dolby Atmos audio.

The soundbar supports Dolby Atmos in a 7.1.2-channel configuration, using additional channels intended to create a more immersive listening experience. CNET and Engadget both describe the product as fitting between Sonos’s existing Beam and Arc Ultra soundbars in the lineup, with the Beam Ultra serving as the upgrade option.

Pricing is consistent across outlets: the Beam Ultra costs $699. The coverage focuses on the soundbar’s Dolby Atmos specification and its role in Sonos’s product range, rather than on additional features or release details.
