    Sonos Subwoofer

    We recently had a Sonos sound system installed in our home. The Sonos Sub Woofer is stylish and sounds great. If your looking for more than a square black box (subwoofer) then this is the subwoofer for you. It adds a cool factor to your room and sound system. The bass really puts out the sound for a much smaller than normal square subwoofer.

    Perfect pair to my Sonos Arc and Sony A80L. Makes the home movie experience better. The his thing BUMPS, so it’s great for a bigger space or dedicated movie room.

    This subwoofer makes such a huge difference and the best part it doesn’t take up too much space I was going with a more traditional set up but decided to go with Sonos with their sleek look unless you have a dedicated movie room speakers can sometimes add a bunch of bulk to a room..anyway this sub is great a little pricey but I would recommend

    Oh my god this subwoofer absolutely bangs! I purchased this at the same time as my Sonos Arc bar and I'm glad I did. The Arc is definitely good on bass by itself but I can't imagine watching a movie without the benefit of this subwoofer. Yes, it's expensive. And, yes, I'd have a hard time telling you that any subwoofer is worth $800 or whatever price this is at now but you will not plug this thing in and watch your first movie without noticing how freaking good this woofer sounds and slams. I use this and the Arc along with a 100 inch screen and ultra short throw projector and it's as good as any movie theatre experience for a non-audiophile like myself. It was beyond easy to set up and sync with the Sonos app

    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)! ;)

    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.

    Absolutely incredible bass from this Sonos sub. As always, extrmely easy to pair with the rest of the Sonos system. If you are getting the Arc, this is a must have to complete the sound properly.

    What an excellent add and complement to our Sonos Arc. I thought the Arc, in itself, was great, but the Sonos Sub Gen3 takes it to another level. One thing I would point out is that we purchased this unit refurbished through Best Buy. Great price by the way. But we ran into an issue with setup for which there was no solution posted on either Best Buys or Sonos' site. I couldn't get the unit to pair. I was ready to return. Thankfully, I found the solution on a Sonos forum. The issue was that the previous pairing for the unit hadn't been properly cleared. Once I cleared the previous pairing, the unit paired oh so smoothly with our Sonos system. Love it, love it, love it.

    This sub adds some serious bass to your sound. I had to play with the settings a bit to get this where I liked it, but now I love it. This pairs easily with the Sonos Arc soundbar. The app makes it easy to customize your sound. You can literally feel this bass.

    Adding a second sub to my system instead of upgrading to the arc ultra from an arc. 2nd sub completes the system. Room fills with bass now.

    Exceed expectations

    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.

    Complete your Arc home theater with 2 One SL’s surrounds and the Sub. You will not regret it! Pair it with a 65” +OLED and you will never need to go to a theater again. Sonos Trueplay will optimize the sub per your room acoustics, but you can also control the bass volume separately, just in case the neighbors complain.

    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

    This is a great Sub. The bass is superb and it was very easy to link to the sound bar. The bass fills the whole room and has no distortion. This sub will work well even in a large room.

    The absolute best sound system I’ve ever had ! I’ve got an open living room/kitchen and this sound system absolutely surrounds my house with music or movies and I LOVE it. Best money spent. Better than the bose we had. I have bought additional speakers around the house for the full effect and so we can walk around and hear the music down the halls and in each room. Can’t beat the quality of Sonos ! Will absolutely recommend to family or friends when they need a sound system and hopefully anyone who reads this considers Sonos before purchasing another brand !

    Sonos Sub Gen 3 black

    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!

    I was kind of concerned that it would not provide the level of bass, the depth of bass, and the slam and attack that I was used to with my old subwoofer, but since I was moving to the Sonos Arc, I decided to go all-in. I was pleasantly surprised by what this sub can do! It can keep up with my old Klipsch subwoofer, and probably if I'm honest, it puts out cleaner, tighter bass. I want to eventually get a second Sonos Sub to place in the opposite corner to even out the bass response across the room, but for now I am impressed with what one sub can do!
