the piece that Sonos was missing in its musical puzzle

The Sonos audio ecosystem has a wide variety of devices that allow any user to set up a fully customized sound system. Sonos is the leading brand in multi-room sound, and its years of experience in this sector make a notable difference compared to other proposals that exist on the market. However, when it comes to bass, Sonos’s bet was all or nothing. Either you went for the third-gen Sonos Sub, or you had to settle for the bass from the soundbars themselves and the rest of the speakers. Luckily, Sonos has just introduced the sub-minia fairly small — and somewhat more affordable — wireless subwoofer that a lot of people have been looking forward to.

About a month ago, the design of the Sub Mini began to circulate on the Internet. The leaks assumed that the American brand would present the product a few days later. However, for some unknown reason, Sonos ended up delaying the launch. Luckily, everything was in a scare, and the Sonos Sub Mini is already a reality.

Everything great about the Sonos Sub in a discreet design

The idea is that we can use it in conjunction with the Sonos One or Sonos Beam soundbars, and thus enrich the listening experience without having to go for the third generation Sonos Sub, which tends to go way over budget.

This new product has a front opening. Center cutout maximizes air flow to improve bass response. Through there we can see that the Sonos Sub Mini is made up of two 6 inch woofer arranged one in front of the other. They work together with two class d amplifiers.

Regarding sound quality, Sonos guarantees that we will obtain surprisingly dynamic and deep bass without giving up a large amount of space in our living room. Each of the woofers can achieve a frequency about 25Hz. Obviously, its performance is inferior to that of the third generation Sonos Sub. Users who already have the Sonos ecosystem at the highest level at home will continue to prefer the other model, but it is appreciated that Sonos improves its catalog also in the mid-range.

Price and availability

Regarding the price, the Sonos Sub Mini is now available for purchase in our country at about €499 ($429 in the US). According to the Sonos website itself, orders placed now will begin to be delivered on October 6, 2022. The price of the Sonos Sub Mini is very well measured.
