Introducing Sub Mini

Hi all,

Today we announce the Sub Mini, the wireless subwoofer that sets a new standard in its category for powerful, balanced bass.

 Available in matte black and white, Sub Mini will be available globally starting October 6.

Sonos Sub Mini

 

Small but Mighty: Sub Mini Boosts Bass Across Movies, Music, Gaming and More

Bass without the Buzzkill: Dual custom woofers and advanced processing generate deep, dynamic low end with no buzz or rattle, helping you feel more immersed in every scene and song. Within the acoustically sealed cabinet, both woofers face inward to create a force-canceling effect that neutralizes distortion. 

Balanced Sound: Advanced digital signal processing maximizes bass response and reproduces the full-toned low frequencies expected from a much larger subwoofer, allowing paired speakers like Beam, Ray, One, or One SL to focus on more mid-range and high frequencies for a richer, more powerful sound experience all around.

Pairs Well With…: Drum up the drama in every movie scene by pairing Beam or Ray with Sub Mini, or drop it even lower on your at-home dance floor by making Sub Mini your Sonos One’s plus one. 

Looking Great at Every Angle: Unlike other subwoofers, Sub Mini features a round design that allows it to blend naturally into your home aesthetic without taking too much space (or attention). 

Seamless Set-Up: Add Sub Mini to your Sonos system in just a few taps on the Sonos app, mixing and matching with different Sonos speakers to create your perfect sound system, whether you’re hosting a housewarming party or movie night with friends. You can also fine tune Sub Mini’s sound with Trueplay, which detects and adapts the speaker’s sound for reflections off of walls and furniture, giving you the best listening experience for your room and setup. 

Sonos Sub Mini

Building on the award-winning design of Sub, Sub Mini delivers rich, clear low end in a more compact, cylindrical design.

Sub Mini will be available globally starting October 6 2022 for $429USD, £429, €499, $699AUD. For more information, please visit Sonos.com

SUB mini pre-ordered from a local online retailed, here in Gloucestershire UK area - whoop whoop 😍 (I like to support local retailers where I can .

 

Not saying it’s not a good choice, but there is also the idea that buying direct gets more profit to the manufacturer…also good choice.  But then you have to figure whether the manufacturer is local or foreign, and whether the product is actually manufacturer locally, and sourced locally.  But only in environmental and humane ways.  Don’t forget to consider what charities the company supports, and it’s political affiliations! 

I’m mostly goofing around  Good to support your local shops. 😀

From the point of view in how far the product would have to travel, from that local retailer, it’s just about 40 miles whereas from Sonos direct, it comes from somewhere in Europe lol. They don’t ship from the UK. Plus, the retailer has an excellent YouTube channel and very good customer service 😍

 

These guys? SmarthomeSounds?

If so, I like them, watched a few of their videos.

Sorry if this is a stupid question - I have a first Gen Beam and x2 One’s which I use with my TV. I’m thinking about the new sub to boost music and movies. However, I really don’t want the extra bass all the time, as at night it will disturb people, especially when it’s not needed for general TV use. So is there a quick and easy way turn off the sub? Or will I have to faff about in the settings each time (which my wife and kids will definitely never do)?

Yes, there are two options. You can either…

  • Switch on ‘Night Sound’ on the Now Playing Screen (this can also be enabled/disabled with SVC too). See link: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/1948
  • Toggle Off the Sub in the Beams Room Settings in the App.

Will get as soon as they release a better sounding stereo pair . Ones are good for surrounds and bedrooms etc . Fives are good but pretty big . Would love a higher end powered speaker like the Kef , then pair them with a sub or sub mini. I also am hesitant to purchase a product that you can’t pair with a stereo pair and the arc . It’s one of the other , unless you want to do set up when you switch .

The Mini is built for small to medium rooms, like a pair of Ones or Beam/Ray.  The full sub is meant for Fives and Arc.   Sonos used to sell a play:3, but no longer does, likely due to lack of sales.  I would not expect them to make a replacement anytime soon.  Also don’t expect they will allow for a sub or mini sub to bond with more than room.  It’s more likely they’ll have a HT setup with separate front speakers before that happens, removing the need to share a sub between 2 Sonos rooms.
