    I know I am writing this little late and I am the person who really not liking to give reviews and feedbacks. But for sure I feel like I share my thoughts on this I bought this last year. I am really enjoying the immersive experience sonos arc and subwoofer. The sound quality is phenomenal rich, clear, and immersive, making it perfect for music, movie nights or playing games. The setup was surprisingly straightforward, and also got app configured my phone I can control all the settings and sounds related stuff from my phone. which I personally like super super useful feature. Overall, if you’re looking for top-tier audio performance, Sonos is a fantastic choice, and Best Buy is the place to get it for their great service and warranty options. Highly recommend!"

    The perfect bass

    This sub is perfect. It reaches truly deep lows instead of the "punches" lower end subs offer. When cranked to it's highest setting, it is enough to create vibration on things I don't want to hear. I used padding on the metal to metal connections I have to dampen the sounds. At the same time, it's not so loud as to be annoying. It seems to contain its bass to the room it's in as well. If you're in an apartment you would probably still annoy your neighbor, but you're safe if you're in a traditional home. It's also small, economical, and easy to set up (and even move to different rooms).

    I already had the Sonos Arc. So this was to just give it a little extra punch. I loved it so much I bought 2. Words can not describe the feeling of this sub and how it makes music so much fun and might I add soulful to listen to. If you love action as much as I do it does amazing! I feel like I have the helicopter right over me, or that I'm on the train with the subtle wheel noises rattling under foot. It's amazing and worth every penny. It also has an amazing look that everyone who see's it comments on how cool it looks and then I get to show it off, and they are blown away!

    Sonos is awesome. I’ve had klipcsh systems in the past. Those subs are basically furnature they are so big. My sonos gives me the same bass but nearly a third of the size. Don’t get me wrong. Its built like a tank and quite heavy, but without taking up much space. You can even turn it on its side to hide it even more!

    After having the Playbar for 5 years I decided to move that to my bedroom and get an Arc for the living room, along with the sub and rear speakers (One sl). The sound quality and interface are still beyond what I would expect out of a wireless HiFi system. No matter where I place this sub I get the same crisp clear sound. I have actually had to set the sub volume to -5 from nominal volume because it is such a powerful unit. I will always recommend Sonos systems to anyone who asks my opinion on home audio. People who have heard my setup have purchased Sonos for themselves afterwards.

    This rounded out the Sonos beam and Sonos ones. This is a beautiful and great sounding subwoofer. I invaded my Wife’s space with aesthetics and great sound. I highly recommend this subwoofer. I think my Wife is good with this too. I can’t say enough about the ease of set up and the sound. An Earc HDMI cable out of the TV to the Sonos beam, four 120 volt outlets to power each speaker and your done with wiring. The Sonos app onboard speaker tuning “Trueplay” works very well to balance the speakers’ sound. I think It’s pretty obvious I’m extremely happy.

    Started with Sonos Arc, Added Sonos Sub Gen 3

    Coming from a 2003 Bose Life Style 5.1 Surround Sound System, the Sonos Arc as the main for my TV was a jump up in quality. If you are looking at these sort of sound systems, you are looking for the best sound, for the least cost, taking up the smallest amount of space. You are not burning dollars chasing minute increases in detail or frequencies. Having said that, I use the Sonos Arc for watching movies on a tv. I wanted surround sound, or something that could mimic surround sound, or something I could upgrade in pieces to surround sound. Did not want a complex setup. Just a quick and clean system with minimal parts. Sonos Arc did the trick. I particularly love the Night Mode (to crunch levels). You really cannot hear the booms or the laugh track breaking out or anything really even from just outside the room, pressed up against the door. You can now watch things at night without having to keep juggling the volume and rewinding trying to catch all the dialogue and trying not to wake anyone up. Now I know this review is for the Sonos SUB. I write this because I had the Sonos Arc for awhile now and I wanted to upgrade and add more pieces to the system. I was stuck between getting the rear surrounds or the sub. After too much research I went with the sub. Although I have yet to try the rears, I am SO GLAD I did. The sub made it feel like I got new speakers. Yes of course there is the extra punch and you can now feel the bass. But the Sonos Arc sound even clearer and better than before. Not just the bass but across ALL RANGE. Not sure how. So even for movies, the SUB made me feel like I upgraded the Sonos Arc as well. Granted, this is all said in a vacuum where price does not exist. Unfortunately it does and even for all that it does, it is still ridiculously expensive. But if ease of use, it's design language and reliability are added value to you, then it will definitely be worth it. If cost is not an issue I cannot find an issue for recommending this.

    We purchased this with our white Sonos Arc soundbar. The soundbar arrive the day before the sub so we had an opportunity to listen to music and watch a movie with just the Arc...and it sounded great. Then, the next day when we installed the sub, we were blown away by the difference in sound quality. Although the Arc alone sounded great, paired with the sub, it was a night and day difference. And, the sub is easy on the eyes! I would recommend this to anyone who has a Sonos soundbar.

    The sonos sub is a great addition to the sonos arc. I purcahsed both on sale and so glad I did. Amazing bass that is not distorted or muffled. Punchy and strong are words I woukd l use to describe the sound. And its so easy to set up. I love listening to music and watching movies now that I have a great surround sound. Sports are fun towatch too. Excellent sound system!!

    One of the best subwoofers you can buy on the market and it goes great with my Sonos Beam soundbar... The best surround sound system addition! Great sound quality, extremely easy wireless setup and link to soundbar with the app, and all around great item. My only complaint is the price... I believe it should cost slightly less than the $699 price tag (luckily I had a 10% off coupon with my Best Buy Rewards premier membership, so I saved $70)... But other than the price, if you are willing to swing that amount for your sound system, then you will enjoy the product!

    I waited and waited and when I finally bought the Sonos Sub the first thing I thought was "why did I wait so long?!?" Adding this to my existing Sonos system is ridiculously easy and once tuned and leveled to my preferences it sounds AMAZING. Definitely a must have to complete your sound system. You will not regret it.

    Subwoofer looks not only stylish, but also has a great weight to it. Subwoofer can you put out a hefty low bass. I did have to turn it up a bit because of my area in the room is larger than most rooms, but once adjusted it plays really good. For a sound bar and subwoofer combination they were really well together.

    Purchased this as an open box to go along with the Sonos Arc soundbar. The base is crazy and really adds to the system we now have. Really glad we added this. It sounds as if we are at the theatre. The glossy finish makes it look like a piece of furniture. Set up was easy and not a big deal for a tech challenged guy like me. I would absolutely recommend this as an addition to the sound system for the full effects it offers.
