Sonos Sub (Gen3) The Premium Wireless Subwoofer for deep bass (Black)

Product Information

Does the increased memory and CPU mean that it will be able to perform something different than the gen2? When playing music, they will certainly fill the room for you, but music generally doesn’t come with surround channels. If you have the Arc and you’re not sure whether to add the Sub or surrounds first my personal preference would probably be to add the Sub first because the Arc already has drivers responsible for throwing sound far and wide. And while this isn’t quite as good as having dedicated surround speakers it does go some of the ways. Whereas in the beam there are no sideways or upward-firing drivers so if I had a beam I’d probably lean more towards adding the surrounds. First, but this is, of course, personal preference. For personalised sound, use the Sonos app to adjust bass, treble and loudness. Speech Enhancement mode optimises vocal clarity – ideal for documentaries and sports commentary. Night Sound reduces the intensity of sound, making it less intrusive for others around your home. Two force-canceling drivers with their Class-D digital amplifiers may increase the bass to higher levels without any rattling or vibration. The two woofers face each other, cancelling out their vibrations, meaning the body of the sub stays amazingly still and doesn’t shake the floor, for which anyone living below you will be grateful.

The Sub gen 2, like other Sonos products, is designed with a minimalist aesthetic in mind. It has a small single pairing button on the side, a rectangular hole in the center with trim and rounded sides, and the Sonos logo on the front. Key Features Available on June 10th, Sonos Sub is being masterfully engineered with its third generation. We’re enhancing the same iconic design and bold bass with updated internals including increased memory, processing power, and a new wireless radio. It includes a rounded pairing button integrated into the Sub’s cabinet for a more ergonomic design, as well as a flat-form power cord that is less likely to tangle with other wires. The Sonos Sub also features revolutionary Trueplay technology. Trueplay scans your room, analyses the results and then fine-tunes the Sub for the ideal listening experience. Whether your room is large or small, densely furnished or minimalist, the Sub adapts to give the most natural and realistic sound possible (iOS device required). However, our experience was that an extra subwoofer can also contribute to better sound: by placing the subwoofers strategically in the room, we were able to achieve a better distribution of the bass in the room. We started by placing the subwoofers in each corner in front of the room, which immediately gave a more even frequency response.Apart from that, Gen 3 has the same features as Gen 2. You can even connect them with Alexa. The iOs users can use the Trueplay app to adjust the volume and balance it with the system’s settings. Their compatibility with the Sonos ecosystem will surely improve the listening experience. Should you buy Sonos Sub (Gen 3) ?

Sub features a high-power radio receiver that allows you to operate the system from a longer range. So you can listen to music while sitting in a different room away from the Sub. The key USP behind a subwoofer is to provide deep and sustained bass. The Sonos Sub doesn't disappoint on either front. Using twin, force-cancelling drivers with separate Class D amplifiers, the Sonos Sub provides a bass that is not only deep enough to rattle the windows, but also punchy, agile and dynamic. The bass simply sounds exactly as it should - fast and deep with zero cabinet buzz or rattle. With Gen 3’s clear, pulse-pounding bass, you can hear every rumble, growl, and thump you’ve been missing out on.

Various speakers focus on the mid and high-range frequencies when coupled with the Sub, but the Sonos Sub Gen 2 focuses on the lowest frequencies and performs better. Build quality If you already have a Sonos Playbar, Arc, or the Beam, you are probably wondering whether the Sonos Sub is a great addition or surround speakers would do the work. Both will have a different impact on the home theatre system. Sonos claims the Sub can reach down to 25 hertz which is pretty impressive for its size. The bass is never boomy and always adds that bottom end that makes movies and music more fun. Also by taking the bass away from your main speakers, the mid-range opens up which we especially notice on the Sonos five and when using other stereo speakers with a Sonos Amp. If you have one of Sonos’s excellent soundbars but crave a bit more thump and rumble, the Sub Mini won’t disappoint.I’ve tested the Sub in a variety of setups using the Playbar, the new arc Dolby atmos soundbar with a pair of Sonos fives and many different speakers paired up to a Sonos amp. From music to movies, the Sub delivers excellent bass that is well defined and quite impactful. The new Sub will be able to handle the job better, but if the environment is extremely poor, it still may have issues. A better wireless card isn’t always the solution. Like with the Boost, it will perform better, but it’s not a magic bullet. It weighs a hefty 6.3kg, so this isn’t a speaker you’ll want to shift around the room too often. A problem with the cylindrical body is that it can’t be laid horizontally and slid out underneath a couch, it’s form doesn’t allow for that aspect of convenience. Connections are kept simple with an Ethernet port for hardwired connection to the Internet. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus that produce heat.
