  • Simple to set up, great sound quality
We have been enjoying our Sonos Sub for 2 little over 2 months now. Just wanted to share a few observations for those who are looking to make the "investment". Pros: + Very simple to install - specially if this is not your first Sonos product + Great sound quality - noticeable difference with playbar only set up, specially when playing musicals and classical music (not much of difference while playing everyday TV quite honestly). It creates an amazing depth in the sound and truly fills the room (we have it placed in a family room that is 15 x 18 ft with high ceiling) + Slick design - the lines are very elegant and the O shape makes it interesting + Quality materials - you can tell from the moment it comes out the box, sturdy and well assembled Cons: + Very heavy - you will quickly notice will trying to move the box (or at least i did...) + Large - this sub is taller than other in the market (e.g., bose) so even if slick and elegant design it can feel like another piece of small furniture (like a side table) Overall, I would buy it again in a heartbeat. Good value for money. ... show more

  • The Sonos Sub is a Terrific addition to the Playbar and 2 Play 1's
WOW - I knew this was expensive and got lucky with the $100 off sale. Still expensive but all the reviews said it was worth it - and they are TRUE. Granted, I am a Sonos poster-boy (no I don't work for them or get paid by them). I started with the Play 3 years ago, then another to get stereo sound. Then a Play 1 for the bedroom, then another for my son's room. Oh, then the Connect Amp to power some outdoor speakers, then a Playbar and 2 more Play 1's for the main TV, then another Connect Amp to power some in-ceiling speakers in the basement. The Sub was the last thing I needed - and boy does it sound great, and make the Playbar and Play 1's sound better. I don't even want to think how much I have spent in Sonos equipment - just than it is terrific and to play all my music from my phone (app) - different songs in each room or group rooms for party. It is wonderful. ... show more

  • Sonos Sub, you spoil me!
After getting a Play1 for a holiday gift, I was quickly tempted to complete surround sound in our main living room area. It's our secondary tv space (we have a home theater/projector set up in another room", however, it's our most used space so having the ability to play music and watch tv/movies in surround sound was on my list of things I wanted to do. This sub is part of the Playbar/Sub/Play1's surround system setup, and I'm more than happy with the quality of Sonos. First, the ease of setting up all of the speakers is unbelievable. All done through the app on your phone, simply follow the prompts on your phone as it sets it all up for you. The sub delivers tight, deep bass, and is a great addition to any home theater or music room. It's much heavier than I was anticipating, but was a nice surprise. You can adjust the bass from your phone quite easily through the settings. I never knew how great 'wireless' connectivity was until I set up Sonos. Not having to run everything through an A/V receiver is a game changer, and I will never go back. If you can justify spending a little more, I cannot recommend enough. ... show more

  • A Must Have Item!
So I started my Sonos experience with a Beam and 2 Ones (Gen 2). In my head I was thinking that would be enough (especially considering I was about $700 deep in my wireless surround sound journey). The sound was amazing, but I knew it was missing that “Wow!” factor I was looking for. I immediately started researching and learned I needed to buy the Sub in order to reach that point. It took me 6 months of going back and forth, but I finally pulled the trigger... I can’t really explain to you how better the sound is with this sub. With the sub the other speakers no longer have to provide the bass, so the speakers get to use their resources on the highs and sub takes care of the lows. Everything just sounds So much better! The audio is clearer and immeasurably full! If I could go back in time I would consider even just getting the Beam and Sub and lived with that for a while then got the 2 ones. Is it worth $700? That depends on how much $$ you’ve got saved and how important all of this is to you. I purchased mine used open box from Amazon for $550 and it was still wrapped brand new (box was dinged up a little, but everything inside was immaculate). Anyways if you’re like me and bought the Beam and 2 Ones already and on the fence, wel... you’ve already gone this far why stop now haha? I tell myself I’ll be using this for 10 years to justify it for myself. ... show more

  • The Best BOOM For Your Buck
I have been wanting to add this sub to my SONOS system for quite some time, and that was my first and only mistake. I should have added this to my SONOS system long ago. The sound is incredibly immersive. I thought the SONOS satellites and sound bar sounded amazing by themselves (and they do), but this sub compliments them and takes the experience to a whole new level. The kids and I immediately began playing bass-heavy movie scenes (T-Rex scene in Jurassic Park; flight scene in Big Hero 6, etc.) and were wowed by how well every sound came together. The sub produces a very clean low that compliments the sound bar's highs - the balance is perfect and my guess is some balancing magic took place during set up. Speaking of setting up, it took 3 minutes. Once I had the sub placed and plugged in, I opened the SONOS app on my phone and pressed the button on the side of the sub when directed. After a quick software update, it was paired with my other speakers and blowing us away. After being impressed with the movie scenes, I streamed my Spotify library through the system and asked myself why on earth I had waited so long. Yes, the sub is expensive, but I am already planning to purchase another one or two for other SONOS systems I have throughout the house. It is that good, and very much worth the value. ... show more

  • Buy your Playbar a friend
So a little background...I bought the playbar by itself because I wanted a simple high quality sound solution for my TV. And in that the playbar delivers on every aspect. It's clean, crisp, great sound for music and movies. And you can't take for granted how easy it is to set up (seriously people, like 10 minutes). But you know what, there was just something missing. Enter Sonos Sub. Honestly, this thing is incredible. The most sooth, most crisp bass I've ever heard. The real differentiator here is how the sub and the playbar work together. When you have just the playbar, it spends effort giving off bass, which really isn't its strong suit. When you pair it with the sub, the playbar can focus on the treble and highs, and let the sub take care of the bass and lows, which really gives you the high quality sound even audiophiles would be OK with. Long story short, buy the sub and the playbar together. Don't make the same mistake I did. ... show more

  • Great, deep bass as part of a home audio system
When I had just purchased a home, I was looking into having it wired for whole-house audio. Looking into multi-room systems on Amazon, it was apparent to me that it wouldn't be cheap: cost of the speakers, controllers, PLUS cost of running wires throughout the house. When I saw the SONOS PLAY:1 promotions, I found its wireless solution to be more cost effective, and with better speakers to boot. I have since tried the SONOS ONE speakers that were realized in late 2017. In 2019, the Sonos ONE (Gen 2) was released, which currently offers no significant advantages over its predecessor except for 2 areas: faster processor (for future expansion) and Bluetooth LE (for speaker setup via Bluetooth at this time). I have then tried out the Sonos SUB as part of a Playbar + 2x PLAY:1 combination. Below are the pros and cons that led me to decide for the Sonos system. NOTE 1: the PLAY:1 is the same as the ONE without voice and touch integration. As such, the PLAY:1 is less expensive. NOTE 2: the ONE (Gen 2) is virtually the same as the ONE (Gen 1) except for a faster processor and Bluetooth LE included. This makes it slightly more future proof. PROS - Hi-Fi. Speakers sound better than the multi-room, wired systems I looked at for less than $500. - Resale Value. Wired speakers don't add much resale value to your house. So, why spend $1000s, only to leave the audio system behind when you sell the property or move? With wireless, I could take my expensive speakers with me to my new home. - Freedom to move around. With wireless, you are free to take the speakers anywhere you want throughout the whole house. For neighborhood block parties, I could even hook up the speakers to an extension cord out to the street, and stream music from my home. Or take it outside to your backyard. They are moisture-proof, but I wouldn't use them as permanent outdoor speakers unless you enclose them in protective casings. NOTE on wireless: each SONOS component is its own wireless client and repeater. Sonos wireless is a private, wireless "mesh" system, separate from your home WiFi. What does that mean to you? It routes music through its own wireless, leaving your home WiFi untouched. There's an additional benefit for that, as I'll explain after the installation note below. Most of the Sonos components (PLAY:1 and ONE are NOT one of them) have 2 network ports. This means, you can plug in the component into the network jack, and use the 2nd one on the speaker to connect your laptop. The SUB only has 1 network jack. INSTALLATION: First, the tech talk. You originally needed 1 Sonos component to be plugged in to your home network (any of the PLAY speakers, Soundbar, Bridge, SUB, etc.) However, that is no longer the case today as you can now connect ALL of them directly to WiFi. Having one of the components connected turns it into a wireless access point (or as consumers tend to call it, a "Wifi router".) All other Sonos components will now be able to wirelessly talk to that device. No other Sonos component has to be plugged in, as long as it's within wireless range of the plugged-in one. Should a component in your house be too far away (say, your garage) from the other Sonos devices, you can connect it to your network via cable, if available, or set up a Sonos BRIDGE (or any other Sonos speaker) wirelessly somewhere between the nearest speaker and the Garage one. The BRIDGE or other speaker strengthens the wireless from the nearest one, and extends the range to the one in the Garage. Each Sonos component is both a wireless client, and a wireless access point/repeater. Each component talks to each other in a mesh network. Think of a spider net. Any part that is touched vibrates to the rest of the net. Tech-talk aside, think about this: One person (Person 1) is at a corner of the house. When he shouts, the person in the garage (Person 2) can't hear Person 1. The only way Person 1 can talk to 2, is to pick up the phone (talking over a wired connection, or plugging a distant Sonos component to the wired network) or having Person 3 stand between them (having a Sonos component physically be between both speakers) and relaying the information back and forth (what WiFi mesh would do). So, with each Sonos component/speaker, the Sonos wireless range gets extended. With the Sonos wireless mesh, you could humorously place a few speakers into each house in the neighborhood, and suddenly play the same music through each home. Try that with Bluetooth speakers. You wouldn't be able to. WiFi mesh TIP: if you have an Android device, you can Google "Android devices on SonosNet", and you will see instructions on how to use your Sonos wireless network ("SonosNet") to connect your Android phone/tablet. This allows you to use your mobile device further away from your home WiFi. This has disadvantages and advantages out of the scope of this review. I decided not to use SonosNet for my tablets. - Ease of Pairing. To pair other Sonos components (or with the Sonos Controller App), simply hit the Play/Volume Up button on the speaker, and the same combination on the other speakers. If pairing with the BRIDGE, hit the pair button on that component. - LED. The Bright LED can be configured to turn on/off via the Sonos app. - Ease of music sync. You can use the free Sonos app for your Android, iOS (iPhone/iPad/iPod), Windows Phone, Mac/Windows laptop/tablet (sadly, no Windows Store app yet) to control how the speakers play: you can easily choose which speakers to pair/unpair into groups. Grouping the speakers allows you to play the same music on those speakers. You can have up to 32 separate groups. You can also individually control each speaker from the app. Each group's volume is controlled by the Sonos app. So, if Speaker 1 is set to 50% volume, and Speaker 2 is set to 25%, lowering the volume by 5% will lower Speaker 1 to 45%, and 2 to 20%. Once music is playing, you can leave the house, and it will continue to play -- as long as the music source is not coming from that mobile device (meaning: if you're playing MP3s from your phone, and your phone leaves, it will stop playing. But if you started Pandora from your phone, or you told the speaker to play music off one of your network shares, it will continue playing since the source is coming from a device that's still at home.) PARTIES: one cool feature is that once you download the Sonos Controller app and pair it to one of the Sonos speakers (which authorizes the app/phone to talk to your Sonos system -- this prevents unauthorized people outside your home from controlling your speakers), each device can control the playlist. So, if you have guests coming over, and each guest downloads and authorizes the Sonos app to your system, each guest can now add/remove songs from the queue. Everybody can now be a DJ. - Pairing of the SUB to other speakers. First, you can take two ONE (or two PLAY:1) speakers and set them up as Left & Right channels for stereo output. WARNING: you cannot pair ONE and the older PLAY:1 for stereo. You either have to use two PLAY:1 or two ONE. Second, you can add a Sonos Playbar or Playbase to that stereo pair for a 3.1 audio system. And finally, add the SUB to create a complete, 5.1 surround system. All components were extremely easy to pair with the Sonos App. - Expandability. Sonos did a smart thing. They released the less expensive PLAY:1/ONE to wet your/my appetite. As you use the system, you will likely buy more Sonos components to expand your sound system, resulting in more revenue for the company. You can add any Sonos component to your system, and they will all work in harmony. You can set up a complete home theater system that way too. I know, sounds pricey. It is. But it still is cheaper than having your whole house wired with nice speakers. - Alarm/Sleep timer. You can set up each speaker (or Group of speakers) to play music at a specific time, day, and volume (Alarm) from a specific source for a specified amount of time. Or you can also set a Sleep timer to play music for a specific number of minutes to ease you into sleep. I love getting waken up by mellow music (ie. Norah Jones) in the morning, and when I leave the home, I don't have to worry about turning off the speakers. It'll automatically turn off after the 45 minutes I set up for the alarm. - Sound. Sound quality is quite good. I will leave you with the reviews by others to read more about that. With the Sonos app, you can control Bass, Treble, and volume. I have the speakers play between 15% to 25% volume in each room -- they are plenty loud enough. Setting them to 100% can be heard through the whole house -- and the potential for your neighbors to complain. Even at low volume, the sound is very good. It's definitely better than most Bluetooth speakers. If you put the ONE in the corner of a room, the sound seems a bit more muffled due to the amplification of the Bass by the walls on both ends. You can fix this by adding more Treble, or by moving the speaker away from the corner. The SUB itself can have its bass level individually adjusted once paired in a 3.1 or 5.1 system. - Design. The SUB, ONE, and Playbase are beautiful devices. They don't look out-of-place in my home. I bought the Black ones. CONS I couldn't find many cons with the SUB, but here are some that have annoyed me. - Cost. The Sonos system is expensive. Just look at the price of the other components. Holy moly. Still, if you were to wire your house with Bose speakers, the Sonos system is comparatively inexpensive. Again, I chose Sonos because wiring the house won't add much resale value. I like the idea of being able to take my Sonos with me to my new home. - Weight. The SUB is heavy! - Sonos App Interface. The app is clunky and looks outdated. It took me a while to figure out where to go to do what (and I love gadgets/toys. I'm a technology tinkerer!). It's not very user friendly. - Music sources. Not all apps can play to the Sonos speakers. You have to use the Sonos App, add the approved source to it, then you can play from that source. I wish you could re-route any audio from any device to the speakers. Pandora, network shares (NAS), iTunes, TuneIt Radio (built-in), iPod/iPad/iPhone, media files on your own Android/Windows device are all possible sources. At one point (if I remember correctly), my not-so-tech-savvy dad was able to beam his iPad's YouTube sound to the speakers without using the Sonos App. I didn't get a chance to verify how he did it, but I did see the ONE being available as a target on his iPad. Perhaps it was playing via the DLNA protocol. Either way, that was neat. Overall, I'm quite pleased with the purchase. It came out cheaper than wiring the house, and I get to control my music from any of the mobile devices. That's neat. Lower the prices of your other components, Sonos! I hope for increased competition in the market to drive the prices down -- as of today, I'm not aware of any good, alternate, wireless HiFi solution. ... show more

  • OUTSTAND thump! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
A must have addition to any Sonos system. This allows us to not only hear the sound but actually feel it; especially watching movies. Having no speaker wire to route anywhere makes it worth having, but the fairly easy automatic setup makes it worth the money. Keep in mind, depending on the room setup, could make a difference in sound quality. Not disappointed, but it is a fairly good size box. You might want to keep that in mind when trying to put that in the "perfect" spot. Sonos setup says up front left (maybe right) but we ended up putting it behind our couch after initial setup. Perfect for us. ... show more
