Dual Sub Mini's

When will this be on the Sonos Road map? There is no reason for Sonos to force customers to spend more money on the larger sub if they already own the mini’s. This is just greedy practices.

If this will never be on the roadmap, please advise, so i can start to phase my future purchases to another companys product. Sonos has not done well by its loyal customers and this is a simple fix if you wanted to generate some good faith among customers that you would like to keep.

do you work for Sonos? Or just someone who has to much time on their hands and gets easily offended?

Don’t attack the messenger. And no, I do not work for them, but I’ve seen them answer this question dozens of times before, such as right here:

Hi @Dipeshn, welcome to the Sonos Community!
Thanks for the feedback, however when it comes to having dual Sub Mini’s, we would recommend going for a Sonos Sub instead. You’ll get more bass from a single Sub than you would from two Sub Mini’s and it’s cheaper than buying two Sub Mini’s.
We still love to hear feedback and feature requests, so if you have any more feel free to let us know.

i dont need the roadmap published, just need to know if this is something they plan on doing soon. If they dont want to disclose this simple answer, thats up to them. But i wont buy anymore sonos products at that point. Its not a new super secret product, its a feature enhancement. No corp espionage to worry about with the answer.

You don’t need the road map published, you just want to know when this will be on the road map?

Seems rather contradictory.

The official Sonos statement on dual Sub Minis is that a single Sub costs less and gives more output. So they do not see the need for dual Sub-Minis. That’s your answer, no road map needed.

Two Sub Mini speakers could be justified in a small room where two subs would help minimize bass frequency room nodes. In a large room two may not be necessary; fewer room nodes.

In my experience, unless co-located, dual Subs tend to exacerbate room nodes instead of solving them due to overlapping waves canceling out.

Not my experience. When one sub has a room node frequency cancellation the other sub may not so the frequency is better heard. Two always provide a better balance which works better in smaller rooms.

Agree to disagree. Though physics does state that multiple overlapping waves create more nulls than single source waves.
