Sonos Sub Mini Wireless Subwoofer

I have been a sonos customer for over 8 yrs now and have purchased a pair of ones & fives, beam & ray, the amp & gen 3 sub, now the mini sub too. I still own and use Cambridge audio with Monitor audio also. I use Sonos purly as a convenient option and everyone at home has access to listen to music as and when they like.The mini Sub is good when paired with the ones or beam 2. For a room size of 600sqft. You can set the frequency level based on your preference.The Sonos Sub Mini is a compact subwoofer designed to enhance the bass performance of Sonos soundbars and speaker systems. Here's a comprehensive review:☆ Key Features- Compact cylindrical design** with force-cancelling six-inch drivers- Frequency range down to 25Hz**- Wireless connectivity** over Wi-Fi (5GHz) with Ethernet port option- Compatible with Sonos Ray, Beam, and Arc soundbars☆ PerformanceThe Sub Mini delivers rich, controlled bass that seamlessly integrates with Sonos soundbars. While subtle out of the box, it significantly improves audio depth when adjusted in the Sonos app. Users should increase the sub level to +4 or +5 for optimal performance.☆ Compatibility and Value- Best for Sonos Five pair : Highly recommended.- Good for Sonos Beam: Solid addition, especially in limited spaces- Less recommended for Sonos Ray: Harder to justify the price.☆Sound Quality- Quick and responsive bass- Precise sound integration- Subtle but effective bass enhancement- Performs well for both movies and music.☆Pros- Adds deeper bass to Sonos soundbars and speakers.- Easy wireless setup- Seamless sound integration☆ Cons- Relatively expensive- Limited to one unit per roomMy Rating 4/5 - A good addition for Sonos sound systems seeking improved bass performance.

Have been looking to buy this since years, finally got some good discount during Amazon Great Indian Sale, and bought it. Nothing can beat in this price range

Pair it with compatible sonos devices and feel the magic

Pair this with Sonos arc and it will blow your mind it’s a different experience best in class by far Sonos sound quality is the best .I especially love the white black dual tone compact design

Beast beast beast !

Paired this with the Sonos one in stereo mode and the quality of sound is excellent t

Sound is mind blowing and perfect companion to Arc

Marvellous

Sound quality

Best subwoofer i have ever used. It has zero vibration at max sub level. Its great pair if you pair it with sonos beam gen 2.

This sub is sooo good, I was confused between the newly released sub mini or 3gen, but I must tell you, it’s an investment of lifetime, I heard both in the nearby showroom and I must say the sub gen 3 is leaps ahead of sub min in terms of performance low frequency bass and it gets better when you pair this with a Sonos arc and two SL.No brainier if you are in market to purchase wireless system that can help you with music and also a home theatre system then this is a blind buy… Go for it you will never regret on your decision.

Having used Bose , B&O and HK I have a certain standard for the bass . I was quite happy with my Sonos arc but that bass quality was missing . I finally added the sub gen 3 and I am quite happy . Still fiddling with the settings to find the best sound . Now I am tempted to add the surrounds too to have that complete feel . The build quality is quite good , it’s quite heavy and looks beautiful. No rattle at all. Quite happy with my purchase.

I guess the first question that comes to your mind would be why on earth I will spend so much (and prices do go down significantly sometimes)for a subwoofer that doesn’t even work alone. (Yes you need a Sonos ecosystem with it or at least a beam or arc. ). So if you think is it worth a subwoofer for 70k? No its not worth.. Now add this to a home theatre setup with sonos beam and two rear sonos one, the price shoots up to over 1.5lacs.. Now is that complete system worth 1.5L? Yes every penny!! The sound fidelity that the whole system provides with wireless connectivity and a great ecosystem with airplay its amazing. Without the Sonos sub your system is not complete as a home theatre. The rumble of a suspense scene is never audible without this monster. It truly feels like theatre.Now if sonos sells all of the home theatre in one go.. there will be hardly any buyers. So it allows you to buy in small increments. I forat got the Sonos Beam, then the two rear channels amd finally the sub, and surely its complete now. I did it over 2-3 years so did not hurt that much. Now like my other reviews lets discuss some points.1. Sound quality (10/10): Deep bass and just bass nothing else. Room shaking bass. I am at a rented place and the false ceiling kind of creaks when this runs..2. App / setup experience (9/10) : Typical sonos setup experience. You need to do a new trueplay tuning after adding this.Since it just produces bass and nothing else there is no highs and mids to discuss. It just seamlessly integrates with your sonos setup.Cons:Price: Its definitely high and Sonos is charging that because you are already invested into the eco system and whatever be the price there is no other option. Very much like Apple devices.Good to know:1. You can adjust bass levels and bass volume.2. I feel it works better in a corner. Human ears cannot detect direction of bass. Hence you can keep anywhere.3. There is a luxury personified site who are official support provider in india. If you are out of warranty then support can become pretty expensive and mostly they will offer you some refurbished item as they dont repair things here. I had to use support for a sonos one that had gone bad. It was in warranty luckily and got replaced but took 2-3 weeks. Here its not like apple. They dont have service network in every major city.Verdict: Buy it if you are one of these:1. Sound freak.. you appreciate quality of music system.2. You are a gadget freak and every few months you feel aaaah what’s next 😜3. You have a sonos system and want to build ipon it.4. You absolutely need a wireless system which seamlessly works with apple devices.5. You have tons of money and dont care.. 😁Otherwise you can buy other great home theatre systems like Onlyo/Yamaha etc. They are much complex to setup and maintain. But much cheaper. But more value for money.My setup:Projector: Epson 2150 Home Cinema 120 inch screen.Sonos: Beam + 2 Sonos one + Sub.Apple Tv 4kConnection: Apple TV to a audio/video splitter to get optical out audio for 5.1. Video out from splitter goes to projector. Optical goes to Sonos beam with the provided optical to hdmi convertor with Beam.I dont have a regular Tv at home as after using this setup for last 4 years. Any TV seems very small 😝

Had a Sonos Arc with Symfonisk surrounds. Adding the subwoofer made a big difference in the movie watching experience for the content that had strong low-end (Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, etc.) Also bass heavy music tracks take on a new life.

This is a very effective woofer and adds great value to already outstanding Sonos Arc. This woofer is expensive but the sound and bass is amazing. I recently heard Bose woofer (with Bose 900) and Sony woofer (with At 7000) and can easily say that Sonos Sub beats both hands down. The base is rich and rattling without any distortion. If your budget allows, invest in this Sub today

Bought this for use with my Arc, but presently have it paired with stereo Symfonisks. It’s mind-boggling how much of an effect this sub has on improving the experience of listening to music. Can’t wait to try it on the arc as well.The build quality is fantastic but the surface is definitely a smudge/fingerprint/dust magnet.If you have the budget and are invested in the Apple/Sonos ecosystem, the sub will elevate it into the stratosphere.

This is a must have for anyone already using the Sonos ARC or Beam. The low earth shaking rumble it creates in movies is just spectacular. Truly brining theatre quality audio to the home.

This is a big addition to the arc. Design is great and a conversation starter. The two speakers cancel out unnecessary vibrations and pump out pure bass which you can feel. Your windows wont rattle. Great for apartments. Must-have for cinephiles but not mandatory for rest as the arc on its own does a great job. Connects wirelessly to arc. Can be placed in any direction and app has ability to adjust the phase.Cons: The most expensive sub.

You can feel and hear the difference. Buy this before you Invest in surround speakers for your Sonos Arc. It adds so much depth to the sound reproduction

If you want to hear high quality music and sound from TV with rich bass, especially from HD movies with Dolby encoding, subwoofer is absolutely essential. SONOS Arc soundbar by itself will not reproduce the bass that is desirable The unit is supplied with power cord, and four felt pads. They are needed only if the unit is placed flat, the position that is not recommended. Positioning upright on its sturdy four feet is recommended. Surface of the sub is glossy and must be held very carefully. Quickly catches finger prints.SETUP: It is 110/220 V compatible and does not require a stepdown transformer. The sub is third generation. Ensure you provide regulated power supply using servo stabilizer and preferably protected with spike protectors. Place it in a corner next to the TV. Do not enclose it in any enclosure and should be placed on the floor without a stand. Raising it above the floor can reduce the bass response. You can cover it with a cover made from speaker cloth. Use the power cord that comes with the unit. Connection is located at the bottom of the unit. Download the SONOS app2 and ensure is activated. Once the sub is connected a flashing green light will appear and the app recognizes the sub. Follow the instructions and ensure it is placed in the same room as the soundbar. Press the flashing light when prompted and a steady white light is the indication that sub is ready for use. A musical chime is an indication that the set up is complete. You need to select the settings in the app. Under phase use “0” and rarely 180 degree option is needed. Under the volume use +4 or +5 for optimum bass.USEFUL INFORMATION: SONOS sub is unique in its design. It has TWO force cancelling transducers facing each, with a gap in the middle. As a result it cancels vibration and rattling often experienced with the majority of other subwoofers. It can handle high volumes without distortion up to a frequency of 25Hz, the maximum human ear can handle. If you own all the units needed for 5.1 system, that include arc, sub and Sonos one ( SL is recommended) It is highly recommended to optimize the sound using TRUE PLAY software from Apple devices. True Play enables adjustment to sound waves that are reflected from walls, furniture and other surfaces in the room and will give the BEST SOUND possible from the SONOS system. Android devices have no True Play provision. I am not sure if SONOS will ever upgrade the software to accommodate android devices to accomplish the same as that by True Play. Once tuned true play is no longer necessary. Hence borrow an apple device finish the tuning and you are done till you move the components again.AMAZON is offering one year warranty. I do not know the basis for this. SONOS does not have service facilities in India. However one of the importers of SONOS equipment is offering to provide the service. If this is true AMAZON should give this information on the website. Arc, SUB and a pair of ONEs together cost more than TWO LAKHS rupees, making it one of the most expensive sound system. Before you buy my recommendation is to ensure that SONOS equipment can be serviced in India.
