About this deal

In any case, a cheaper version of a Sonos product is always welcome – and even if Sonos is yet to confirm it, it looks like we'll be seeing a cheaper, more compact subwoofer in the next few months. September 2023: Sonos released the Move 2, a second-generation version of its large portable speaker. It has a new design, stereo (instead of mono) sound, drastically improved battery life and USB-C line-in connectivity. Read our review of the Sonos Move 2.

The app will calibrate the Sub's settings for you initially, walking you through a procedure that measures your room's particular acoustics and adjusts the Sub's output accordingly (you can skip this step if you wish). Within the app, you can adjust the Sub's settings. Other than simply turning the Sub on or off, you can adjust its volume level relative to the other speakers in the room, switch the Phase between 0 or 180 degrees, or adjust the crossover frequency. The default setting for crossover frequency (the frequency at which the speakers begin to cut off and the subwoofer begins to output audio) is 80Hz. But this can be adjusted anywhere between 50Hz-110Hz, and depending on your setup and room size, adjusting this parameter can make a huge difference in the overall sound signature. With the Sonos Ray, it's simply too much to pay for the extra bass extension and audio improvements it brings. You should get a different soundbar setup if you're thinking of spending that kind of combined money and want real bass. Look to the Yamaha SR-C30A, for example. Is there anyone of you had both of the soundbars, so that to comment which soundbar is better for music? And ofc, to be able to produce great sound for movies. Use only the supplied power cord to connect to a power outlet (using a third party power cord will void your warranty). Be sure to use the proper power adapter for your country. Push the power cord firmly into Sub until it is flush with the surface. Sonos says it's the ideal partner to the Sonos Ray and Sonos Beam 2nd Gen, but is officially gently steering people away from using it with the Sonos Arc, even though (as we'll come to), it works great with that model too.

Overview

When the Death Star explodes in Stars Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (spoiler alert), the Sub delivers solid extra depth at default levels, but for those who really crave thunder, older films like this can handle a higher level. The Death Star explosion really sounds huge at level 8, and this doesn't do much to upset the rest of the mix's balance. Many subwoofers are set-it-and-forget-it speakers with hard-to-reach knobs, but the Sonos app makes it easy to dial in your preferences for a variety of content. Used with the Sonos Beam and Sonos Arc, it doesn't make a big difference to the overall soundstage that I identified, but it does just deliver that deeper, richer rumble that those soundbars simply can't manage on their own. March 2023: Sonos released the Era 100 and Era 300 speakers. The Era 100 is a new-and-improved version of the One (which will be replaced) and the Era 300 is a new kind of speaker designed to play immersive audio that supports Dolby Atmos. Read our review of the Sonos Era 300.

Crossover Frequency: Adjust the frequency at which the sound transitions to the subwoofer. By default this is 80 Hz.

One 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. You can plug a Sonos product directly into your router if your WiFi is unstable.
