    For my use it’s great. I use it via the optical cable for my desktop computer. I don’t have space for two desktop speakers and this fit right under my monitor. For its size, the sound is great but I wouldn’t recommend it for an entertainment system. Cons: No remote No HDMI port Sonos app is terrible Tricky installation with app Pros: Comes in white Affordable- paid $110 on sale Great sound for size Compact

    It’s easy to setup but keep in mind you WILL have to download an app to finish setting up. Afterwards its ease of use to control EQ and volume is great. Tho im sure there ARE speakers specifically for PC’s I saw this on a post on reddit and just couldn’t get rid of the idea or how well they looked. Small and compact is great for any space and how loud they can get is a plus.

    The product is sleek and blended seamless with my gray/ black aesthetics. It provided exceptional quality sound, much like a surround sound vibe. It is definitely worth the cost. The drawback is that if your TV remote is Bluetooth/RF you will need app to control sound.

    Big Sound From a Small Soundbar Sonos Ray Delivers

    I’ve been using the Sonos Ray all-in-one soundbar for a while now, and it’s honestly one of the best upgrades I’ve made to my TV setup. For such a compact soundbar, the audio quality is surprisingly full and well-balanced. It completely blows standard TV speakers out of the water, especially when it comes to clarity and depth. Dialogue is where the Ray really shines. Voices come through crisp and clean, even during action scenes or when there’s a lot going on in the background. I don’t find myself constantly adjusting the volume or turning on subtitles just to understand what’s being said, which was a big issue with my TV’s built-in speakers. Movies, shows, and even YouTube content sound noticeably more polished. The bass is tight and controlled for an all-in-one bar. You’re obviously not getting subwoofer-level rumble, but for its size, it delivers enough low end to add weight to explosions, music, and ambient sound without overpowering everything else. It feels well tuned rather than exaggerated. Setup was extremely easy. From unboxing to having it fully running took only a few minutes. The Sonos app walks you through everything step by step, and once it’s connected, it just works. The app itself is clean, intuitive, and makes adjusting sound settings simple. Trueplay tuning (if you have a compatible device) is a nice touch and really helps tailor the sound to the room. Design-wise, the Ray is sleek and minimal, which I appreciate. It fits nicely under my TV without drawing too much attention to itself, and the build quality feels solid and premium. It doesn’t look or feel cheap at all. Overall, the Sonos Ray is a fantastic choice if you want a noticeable audio upgrade without dealing with a complicated or bulky setup. It’s perfect for smaller to medium-sized rooms, apartments, or anyone who values clean sound, easy use, and reliable performance. If you’re tired of weak TV speakers and want something that just works and sounds great, the Sonos Ray is absolutely worth it.

    Latency Holds This Back

    I was excited to get Ray as it fits nicely below our new Sony 4K TV. The good news first: Ray sounds excellent - tight n' punchy with plenty of bass. Unfortunately, there's a built-in delay between the picture onscreen and the sound coming from Ray, even though they're right next to each other. Ray has a minimum 75 millisecond lag, which is way too long. There's no way to get sound & picture tighter. At times, it's far worse than that, which is helped by doing an inconvenient restart of the TV. The delay is never acceptable. There are also regular issues with the volume being controlled between the Sony TV remote and the DirecTV remote. It's difficult to maintain a consistent volume. All in all, I wouldn't recommend Ray to anyone, unless Sonos develops a fix for the unacceptable latency in its design. With that lag, I can't recommend it.

    A very nice blend between price, quality and size. Easy to install and it has added a nice quality sound to my TV room. I'm becoming more and more impressed with Sonos products and I appreciate being able to control both this speaker and my other Sonos speakers from the a single app. While this may not have the power of 5.1 with numerous speakers around the room, it has enhanced the sound and viewing experience of my 65" Samsung TV

    Another amazing device from Sonos. As an entry level product, it still blows the competition away. The sound is crisp, immersive and customizable. Pros: Solid build and design quality. Easy to setup. Easily accents other Sonos equipment in your home. Enhances TV viewing immediately. Perfect if you’re new to the Sonos lineup. Cons: No HDMI ARC, no remote. (Sonos Ray can use your tv remote though) Overall I’d highly recommend this product. We use it in the bedroom where it excels in all areas. Great for streaming music or watching tv.

    Yo, let me just say—this Sonos Ray I grabbed from Best Buy is straight fire! From the jump, setup was a breeze. Like, plug it in, connect the app, and boom—crisp, clean sound coming at you from every direction. I didn’t even need to read the directions The sound quality? Insane. Movies, music, podcasts—it all sounds chef’s kiss. The bass hits just right without shaking the whole building, and the clarity? Bruh, I’m hearing details I didn’t even know existed. Perfect for my living room setup and doesn’t take up a ton of space either. Sleek, stylish, and it just works—no stress, no fuss. 10/10, would recommend. Shoutout to Best Buy for hooking it up!

    This is my first product from Sonos and I must say the Ray is a great introduction. I’ve always had Samsung soundbars to match my television brand. I love the look and clear sound of the Ray. I don’t intend to use it for music since I have a HomePod for that. For TV use it’s perfect.

    Solid entry soundbar, no voice commands

    The Sonos Ray is a solid soundbar that packs great sound into a compact size and an affordable price. It’s perfect for small spaces or anyone looking to upgrade their TV audio without breaking the bank. The sound quality is impressive for its size, especially when it comes to dialogue clarity and balanced audio. However, it does have one drawback—it's not compatible with Hey Google or Alexa, so you can’t control it using voice commands. If smart assistant integration is a must-have for you, this might be a dealbreaker. But if you’re just looking for a simple, good-quality soundbar, the Sonos Ray is a great choice for the price.

    Have Sonos ARC in living room with 2 additional Sonos ONE speakers. Have been very pleased with those. Purchased this Sonos RAY sound bar for master bedroom. It sounds great on a shelf under the TV. It is nice and small but has a great sound. Love the voice enhancement option especially in he bedroom where the sound is often lower. It is a great addition to the Sonos lineup. My only complaint is only having optical input and not HDMI. It would be perfect if had HDMI inputs. Very satisfied with RAY.

    amazing!!! so worth the money, great soundbar for bedroom. i use this in my bedroom with my sonos mini sub. provides great sound and easy to setup. it should be known that this soundbar connects only via optical, so in some tvs you will need an IR remote. if you don’t like that, upgrade to the beam it’s well worth it!!

    Sound quality is very good but there are things that I find could be better with this unit. Setup is not easy or intuitive. It can only connect to the TV with an optical cable and not an HDMI cable. Also no remote control you must use your cell phone or have Geek Squad hook it up and pair with TV.
