Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve had a Sonos Arc SL since Thanksgiving of last year and added a pair of Era 100s for surround soon after. That setup itself is amazing, especially with Dolby Atmos content, however adding the Gen 3 sub made a world of difference. Music and movies really come to life, with deep bass and no distortion, even at high volume. The sub is very well made and I’m glad I chose the full-sized sub over the mini, especially for movies. Adding the sub to an existing Sonos setup is a breeze through the Sonos app. If you appreciate the awesome lows only a proper sub can provide, you will not be disappointed!

Beautiful design and glorious sound. Paired with our Sonos sound bar and surround sound speakers, the sound is like sitting in a movie theater. Very very pleased with this purchase as it has nicely rounded out the sound and movie watching experience for our family. Listening to music takes on a whole different feel. You are truly immersed, hearing and feeling each note. Lovely addition.

I am floored at how powerful it is! Sounds so amazing! I have the Arc and Sonos One already for the surround sound and debated back and forth if i really need to spend the money on the sun. Boy am i glad i did! You won’t be disappointed! Movies sound so much better, music streaming through it sounds amazing! And I didn’t even adjust any settings on the sub. Amazing quality!

This thing is a beast, and I feel like I haven’t used it to it’s fullest capacity yet. Only get bets better with other Sonos products. Clean, crisp bass, that envelopes a room. No shaking, no rattling, just pure sound. Looks awesome too, and I love that you can easily move it around anywhere in the room. Sounds awesome no matter where it sits.

So glad a took the leap and added this to my arc...I mean the arc is great on its own and the price of the sub is a bit of a bite to the wallet but once connected...boom, mind blown, legit next level theatre experience. I mean you feel this in your bones. Haha. Love the simple setup, no obnoxious wires (power cord only) and clean modern look of the subwoofer. 5+ stars!

Packs a punch despite its smaller size and unconventional shape/design. Great for smaller rooms or when you don't want to have any wires showing since this is a wireless sub that nicely connects to the Sonos soundbar with optional wireless surround speakers.

I purchased this to host a movie night. I wanted a theater experience where you can feel the deep bass in your chest. This subwoofer didn't disappoint. It was very easy to connect to my sonos soundbar too!

The Best Subwoofer l have ever used! Very deep sound and easy to connection to the main Arc

So I have had the Gen3 Subwoofer for about a week now. To premise this, I received the Sonos Arc at the same time, so I cannot comment as to the difference between the standard Arc and the sub over time. However, I did run a quick test of the Arc before adding the sub and can definitely say that the sub makes a noticeable difference in quality and immersion. I was previously running a Samsung 5.1 HN soundbar with wireless sub and thought the sub there did a good job of hitting the deep lows. However, it always seemed muddy and imprecise. This is not the case for the Sonos sub. Here when events in movies get loud, the sub increases in volume but still manages to maintain accuracy and a crisp sound. Definitely avoids being muddy and sounds great. It also definitely allows for the Arc to hit its mids and highs without being burdened by the low end. Overall, the two together are a great match and the sub was simple to set up and connect. I do think the sub is necessary if you are any sort of sound aficionado, which you probably are since you are spending this much money on audio equipment. I don't think the Arc by itself would be adequate in immersion in any sort of larger room. That being said, this was a quality purchase. Now I need to save up for the surrounds! Unless I edit this review, you can assume I am loving my Sonos system!

After listening to music on small, mono, voice assistants and headphones...bass is back in my life! It adds so much to the listening experience, exactly as it should. The bass is not overwhelming, sounds like it is coming from the corners of the room, but is all coming from a good looking Sonos Subwoofer. Awesome!

I bought this to pair with a Sonos Arc and its a must. I cant imagine not having the pair. Great for filling in the bass in movies and music. It helps that it looks great as well.

Amazingly clear bass from this beast! Zero rattling/shaking & solid design. Sounds incredible paired with the Sonos Arc whether playing movies/shows/sports/news or music… plenty of power to quickly annoy your neighbors (fair warning)! ;)

When I put on a movie, it feels like its really happening. Explosions, music, everything. No rattle due to the way it was built. It can really upset some neighbors with how power it can produce lol

What a powerhouse! We have a sonos sub + beam setup in our basement and were so in love with it that we had to get a second system for our main living room. This makes movie watching and even just simple music listening so much more enjoyable with rich bass sounds. It’s a little spendy but you won’t regret it.

Excellent sub. Connects easily with the other Songs products I have. Makes a big difference to the sound of my system. Fills the room with a rich deep sound that wasn't there before. Would recommend to anyone who has a Sonos system, but has not yet bought a sub. Its a game changer.

You can now pair 2 subs with a Sonos beam and I bought this as a 2nd. My system is for a new Samsung 85” q90a. It’s an awesome set up. Watching “Dune” is like a holy experience. The whole room shakes at times. If you’ve never used Sonos equipment before, you’ll be amazed how easy the setup is and the quality is top tier.

Great bass compact design perfect integration for my home theater

This sub is fantastic. It’s not fantastic because it’ll shake the paint off the walls. It’s not fantastic because you’ll feel low frequencies like you’ve never felt before. It’s fantastic because somewhere between effortless to use, seamless integration into the Sonos ecosystem, and the low end frequencies it covers it gives you exactly what it claims to. A wireless (except for power chord) sub that looks great and perfectly achieves Sonos’ mission. It works so well with two-channel use, with a sound bar, or as a full surround setup that it’s a must have if you even stumbled upon this review thinking you “might” want to add a subwoofer to your setup. It adds all of the depth you’ll need with your Sonos speakers and it’ll do it from the moment you add it on the app. A bonus for your visual field, it looks great, too.

SUBWOOFER was as if I WAS AT a MOVIE THEATER literally. I couldn't be so HAPPY with this product. It is definitely WORTH the price that I was given, Didn't expect to buy this subwoofer and a soundbar. The BEST BUY STAFF that I encountered was so KNOWLEDGEABLE of the product, and I'm speaking of wattage, and sound waves when experiencing a movie with the family and how my family and I would feel the movie Magic. That blew me away to think otherwise of what experience of what my family would feel. His knowledge was key to selling me and how excited he was to help me realize what I would be purchasing. Definitely will be back

Bought the Gen 3 to pair with my Sonos Arc Soundbar in the Great Room of our home. Note that my TV is a Samsung 65” Frame purchased in 2019 and therefore, is Arc capable but is not new enough to have Earc unfortunately. I used the Arc for 3 months and was not satisfied with the sound. Granted, significantly better than the TV speakers, but less than I had hoped for, Enter the Sub Gen 3. The diff is night and day. The most impressive difference is taking the bass responsibility away from the Arc thus allowing the Arc to effectively manage the mids and highs. The net result is a soundstage that is dramatically different than relying solely on the Arc. To say that is exceeded my expectations would be a gross understatement. So much so that I am satisfied to resist the urge to upgrade to an Earc television.
