I am not pleased that the Beam does not offer a headphone jack. I bought a fantastic pair of headphones and plan to use them to listen to music and tv most of the time. Since the Beam doesn’t have a jack it will likely be replaced by a new more versatile soundbar or I singly will go back to mostly using my A/V receiver. Probably won’t bother with any other Sonos products in the future.

So you bought a Beam and are now complaining Sonos has not put something in you're only now have need for?
I’m not sure I’d know where to look for a quality living room soundbar with a headphone jack, to which one would presumably have to connect a 4-5 meter cable that would immediately get in the way. The concept simply jars.
Most would use wireless headphones, either directly from a TV’s Bluetooth or by hooking a transmitter to a suitable TV output.
What would you be listening to through your headphones? If it’s music, you might as well plug it into you phone. If it’s tv / movies, most modern tv’s also support Bluetooth so you can connect a pair of Bluetooth headphones, but I have to agree with others here, it’s a strange use case as Sonos is a Speaker manufacturer…
I am mystified… as
