- A: AnswerHello. Our Formation Bass works wirelessly with our other Formation devices, but not with Sonos' or anyone else's wireless devices.

Q: QuestionCan I add a 2nd sub to my formation system or isn’t worth it?(1 answer)
A: AnswerNo, you can't. I have two bass units and tried putting both in the same room and it wouldn't let me.Answered by GrndMstrG

bass
Good bass, and bar connection to watch movies and listen to music effect is very good, but the software is a little difficult to use, but finally overcome

Awful
Awful app and doesn’t stay connected. No service to speak of if it is working the sound quality is pretty good. But most of the time it’s a heavy paper weight

Very weak but ONLY option?!
I got a formation wedge and love it but it definitely has some missing lows. I thought this would solve it, but man I got this bass added and it is SUPER weak. I have my bass at +12 db maxed out in the app and it is the low end of the SVS subs i use. I barely can hear my sub and sometimes have to put a hand near it to make sure it works/is even working. Is this normal for everyone else? The bass is tight because it doesn't have any oomph...no store near me has anymore in stock nor are any stores open for me to check if mine is just bad...or is this how they built it. I wish i could put a regular sub with my formation wedge. the next 30 days I will have to decide to maybe just go with bookshelves. Wanted to save space but the lack of options with the formation series makes you spend top dollar for subpar performance bass wise... i wouldnt say im super picky audioholic but i do have the SVS SB12 and to compare too and this would be the SB12 at the 10% setting lol...
