I am remodeling my den and changing out my in-ceiling speakers to Sonos Architectural. My bedroom sits above and I am doing some soundproofing. Part of that entails putting the speakers in enclosures. I am trying to decide if the Sonance Acoustic Enclosure will fit the Sonos Architectural ceiling speakers. Everything tells me yes, but it would be great if someone has done this.

Enclosures:

The CAD drawing of the Sonance Enclosure calls for a 8.20” cutout while the Sonos speakers call for a 8.25” cutout, which I don’t think is an issue. The Sonance speaker is 4.72” tall, while the Sonos is 4.84”, which could be a problem unless part of that overall depth protrudes into the room, which I believe that is how it is measured.

I can’t find the recommended enclosure volume for the Sonos (Sonance) speaker. The Sonos literature is rather superficial. I would consider just buying the Sonance speakers, but I want to use 2 of these as my rear surround speakers.

Have you contacted Sonance’s customer support directly for the recommended volume? Sonos itself is merely a reseller, and is unlikely to have direct measurement to the quality you’re looking for.
