Two fives and Two subs on Stereo mode

To the Engineers @ Sonos,

 

Its been more than two years as some of us are impatiently waiting for a solution to set up Two fives and Two subs on Stereo mode. Currently home theatre is the available option for adding a second subwoofer. But please note that I am a music enthusiast and prefer to listen to music in stereo mode. Unfortunately the pair of Five with one Sub is not capable to produce amble bass in my large room. 

 

Can you please please provide a solution to this. My neighbour use a Bose lifestyle 650 series where it allows adding a second subwoofer and the bass it produces is great on a stereo mode and we both have identical apartment size. Appreciate if you please reconsider giving the option of adding a second subwoofer on a stereo set up. Thanks

    I’m late thread, but, Vthomas, what size room do you have where one sub is not enough please?

    I have a fairly large room and not invested in any Sonos ever yet and just pondering what I need, hence the question.

    See this thread here for my room dimensions.  I’m hoping a full sub, two 5’s and maybe two 1’s (later if needed) will fill it.  Appreciate your opinion!

     

    Cheers

    @Broxhead 

    Sorry for the late response. It’s been a while since I checked this site for solutions since Sonos keeps giving lame excuses that their technical team is working on it, it’s really childish to repeat the same statement over the last 4 years. So I sold Sonos and invested something better that brands give proper and professional technical support. Now I’m happy with my lineups. To answer your question my room size is 7x7 meters. I would suggest if you have a larger room, don’t even think of this nonsense brand as it will never serve the purpose of a decent stereo listening. Separating two fives to add two subwoofers to each of them is like playing on mono mode, this was the interim solution from Sonos support. Are you crazy to spend so much money on two fives and two subwoofer and then listen on mono? Regrettably it’s way beyond stupidity.

    I have two Five + subs in the bedroom, but I would like to add a second sub. Then I have a One at the entrance. I was thinking that if I paired a sub with the One, I could then move that sub into the bedroom. Then during the listening phase I could combine the two environments. in this way I would keep the stereo pair of the Fives intact and I would have two subs. The problem remains of how to silence the One at the entrance…
