    Sales people at BB told me this would work without the sound bar. Turns out, they were incorrect. Now I’ve had an $800 piece of equipment sitting in my living room for over a minute th collecting dust.

    It was supposed to work with Sonos Soundbar but inspite of two attempts by the technicians from Geek Squad, the combo did not work. Both items had to be returned.

    First of all I had to exchange the produ t due to per the Geek Squad no connection and the item was not functioning. New Geek Squad person could not hook item up either. So, I still have this expensive item sitting in my living room. Disappointing

      Sorry to hear this, setup is usually done through the Sonos app and the device connects directly to your WiFi network. Please also use our online resource at support.sonos.com for additional information on setting up your Sub (Gen 3), john.milton

    Just doesn't connect to WIFI. Either too weak WIFI sensitivity, or the sensitivity is so strong that all other wireless devices in the area interfere with it. Meanwhile all my other wireless devices connect instantly and remain connected without issue. Returned.

    Even with a visit from geek squad, we were not able to get it to stay connected to the Sonos amp. We hardwired it to the Sonos amp and it worked for a few minutes then would not work. I ended up buying a sonance subwoofer hard wired to the Sonos amp and that worked fine.

    DO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE RUCKUS ACCESS POINTS!

    After spending days on the phone with support I am now being told that the Sonos Sub does not work with Ruckus Access Points (which is what my house has pre-wired throughout). They basically expected me to run a cable across the house to make it work via LAN and not use WiFi. I ordered a wireless bridge online and will see if I can get it to work that way. Be careful with this one as the support is terrible, they barely even try.

      Thank you very much for your review. We would encourage you to do a couple of things to get the best sound in a large room. 1) If you or someone in the home has an IOS device, run TrueplayTuning. You can find this in the room settings. It will tune our products to the environment of the room. 2) You can adjust EQ to your liking. 3) We do offer dual Subs which is perfect for large spaces. Meaning, you can have two of our Subs on one soundbar. john.milton
