The result is that everything you listen to - from bass-heavy music to action movies with a lot of explosions - will sound a lot better.

The benefit of a subwoofer is that it allows the other speakers in your system to use their drivers (the part of a speaker responsible for creating sound) to play sounds in the midrange and treble frequency range more accurately. The wireless subwoofer can connect to the other speakers in your Sonos System, and pump out an impressive amount of bass. If you’re putting together a home theater system using Sonos’ speakers, at some point you’re going to need to add the Sonos Sub.

If you’re happy with the way your Sonos speakers sound, and want to have a similar experience everywhere you go, the Move is your best choice. You shouldn’t submerge this speaker completely under water, but it can still handle the elements. The Sonos Move has an IP56 rating, which means it’s designed to handle splashes of water (including rain), dust, and extreme temperatures. The base is subtle, so it’ll look nice on a desk or shelf when the Move isn’t on top of it. It comes with a charging base, so you don’t have to hunt around for a spare charger. Sonos says the Move should last up to 11 hours on a single charge, which is great for a speaker this size. Because it’s portable, the Sonos Move supports streaming over Bluetooth, so you can easily pair it with your devices when you’re out of the house.

The Move is Sonos’ first totally wireless speaker, and it’s best suited for backyard gatherings.Īt 6.6 pounds it’s heavier than most of the portable speakers we recommend, but it’s basically a portable version of the Sonos One, which means you should expect crystal clear sound. If you don’t want to use those features, you can get the Sonos One SL, which has the same audio hardware, but no microphone. The Sonos One has a microphone, which allows you to control it using the Google Assistant or Amazon’s Alexa smart assistant.

It’s light, too, so you won’t have to worry about it bringing down a floating shelf. It’s not totally portable, but the Sonos One is only 10 inches tall, so it’s easy to take from one room to another without any issues. It does an excellent job in all three configurations, which makes it the perfect starting point for a wireless home audio system. We’ve also heard it as part of a stereo pair and used as back speakers for a surround sound along with the Sonos Beam sound bar. We’ve tested the speaker out for ourselves, and it sounds very good overall - especially for a speaker this size. The Sonos One is the company’s most versatile speaker, and exemplifies what makes Sonos great.
