The Sonos SUB offers style at a price - First Look

2012-06-26
i untie Pendlebury from CNET and this is a review of the Sonos sub if a friend asks me what kind of multi room music system should I buy more than likely I will answer so nas it's easy to set up and use and sound quality is consistently good but one of the things that lacks particularly in the play 3 and play 5 speakers is meaty bass Sonos has gone about fixing that by releasing its first subwoofer simply named sub this is a large O'Shay p sub with the piano gloss finish the sub features to 6 inch drive units and can go down to 25 Hertz which is almost a limit of CD technology the subs biggest selling feature is that it's Wireless simply press the button and your software will configure everything you just need to tell it if it sounds too loud or soft and just a slider up or down and you're done the sub works with also nos products with a built-in amp and based on our tests it's most useful if you're partnering it with the play 3 or play 5 speakers if you own one of these systems I would say adding the sub makes a definite improvement on sound quality the bass response becomes more natural and the system is able to then concentrate on producing a clearer mid-range the effect is actually quite pronounced and the sub itself is able to go as loud as is comfortable in a normal room without distorting if you only connect amp though I'd say save your money and choose a powered sub by another manufacturer instead the biggest negative here is the price at six hundred and ninety nine dollars it's the most expensive cirno's component by far and for the money you'd pay for this and a couple of play speakers you can really buy yourself a nice stereo system this has been Ty Pendlebury from cnet.com
