Sonos Sub pops when turning on

Hello everyone,

So I recently got into the Sonos ecosystem and I enjoy it a lot. I started off with a Playbar but I soon got a Sub as well. One weird thing I notice is when the Sub turns on (so receives a signal when idle), it softly pops.

This isn’t a very deep popping sound or crackle. I think the pop is in between 100 and 120 hz. It happens when I turn the TV on and when I start to play music through the Sonos app or Samsung music.

My question is: Is this normal when the sub turns on after being idle? Or is this not common and should I worry? When it has turned on it delivers great quality and rich bass. The Playbar does not pop when it turns on (not with or without the sub enabled).

I want this system to last since the price tag was through the roof, so can somebody help me out? I don't want my Sub to break in the near future or worse, when the warranty expires, because I did not sort this out.

Hi All,

Was there any solution to this? I have been using my playbar and sub for 9 months now and suddenly within the last month, I started to hear the “pop” noise from the sub when turning on my TV also. If I unplug the sub and plug back in, it also “pops” when turning on.
