Move charger

Greetings Forum-users👋

 

For the one’s that “are familliar” with me and my Sonos…i have now placed two Roam in my bathroom. I have been using them at grannys place but then i bought a couple of Ikea Symfonisk Lamp’s. Anyway….

I have not been able to find a good spot for the Roam’s in the bathroom. I have placed them in a small window. They are set-up as stereopair just as an info. But(oh no,here he goes again😆😆😆) i’m not comfy with the sound(performance). Not that i’m suppose to creating a discoteque in my shower i think it’s a little doll. It might be that i should try move the Roam’s closer to the glass-corner where the shower is. For that i need some wall-mounts,and i’m pretty sure i’m not getting around the issue that i need to drill a whole in the wall for this mount to be. The Roam’s IS going to be ON the charger allways. Not gonna place them on this mount only when i’m in the shower.

Then i start thinking: Why not try two Move’s(gen2) in stead. Buy two orginal Hooks and screw them to the wall. So my wonders this time: The charger/ring that are included with the Move….it’s magnetic right? So i can just hang the Move on the hook and put the charger under it in “thin air”. Or to solve this….i just plug it in via the USB-C connector. 
 

Be Well🤜

…..but anyway,i’m still wondering if the charger-dock-ring is magnetic for the Sonos Move/gen2

The Move 2 charger is not “magnetic”. It does not attach unaided to a suspended Move.

Hi all of you Good People👋

 

Just a little update here. 
Since last post here i purcased a secound hand white Move Gen 1,and i’ve put it up in a small window in my bathroom. It’s on it’s charger all the time. And now i got the Ikea Dirigera hub and two volume-knobs. One is a “rotary” style perhaps the 1.gen witch i placed inside the shower-cabinet so i can control the volume on my Roam stereopair. Tha other volume-control i mount along with the lightswitch. I have the Roam’s and the Move bounded together.

At first listening to the Move i was not excited. The sound was crappy. Allmost no bass and it was not smooth at all. I went in the settings try adjust EQ(Treble’n Bass) but nothing change it….untill i turned OFF trueplay. Then everything changed. So now it’s ok.

But i’m seriously thinking if getting another Move Gen 1 and replace the Roam stereopair. The only thing stopping is how to mount them where i have the Roam today. I do not wanna drill any holes in the wall for a mount. The Move is quite heavy so no double-side tape will hold it. Need to think it carefully over.

With all those hard surfaces in a relatively small space, you are going to get a lot of of audio reflections.  I’m guessing, but I can see where that would make it difficult for the auto trueplay to properly find the right setting for the room.
