Some of our favorite Sonos soundbars are on sale on Amazon right now
One of our favorite soundbars is at its lowest price ever.
This is one of team Select’s favorite soundbars. NBC Select commerce editor Jordan Bowman has used it for about two years, and it drastically improved his home theater experience. It has a compact design and seamlessly connects to your TV and Wi-Fi networks, says Bowman. You can also switch between playing TV audio and listening to music, as well as sync with other Sonos speakers in your home.
A subwoofer is a great way to instantly add deep bass and sub-bass to any home audio setup. This is Sonos’ smallest and lowest price subwoofer, and pairs well with any of the brands’ soundbars. Like other Sonos products, it can connect over Wi-Fi and syncs wirelessly to other Sonos speakers in your home.
This was Sonos’ most premium soundbar before it was replaced by the Sonos Arc Ultra late last year, hence the deep discount — this is the lowest price I’ve ever seen for the product. It has more internal speakers than Sonos’ other soundbars, including two height channels, leading to a more surround-sound experience despite being a single speaker. Like other Sonos soundbars, it can easily sync with other Sonos speakers and play audio over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The Sub 4 is a huge upgrade to your TVs bass and sub-bass, even if you don’t end up pairing it with a soundbar. “The first time I watched a movie with the Sub 4, I could feel the subwoofer shaking the couch,” says Bowman. When paired with his Sonos Arc soundbar, TV and movies audio is rich, deep and layered.
One of our favorite over-ear headphones, the Sonos Ace stands out with its excellent on-ear controls — there is a responsive content key that easily controls power, noise-cancellation modes, volume, media playback and calls. If you own a Sonos soundbar, you can transfer TV audio from the soundbar to the headphones by holding the content key — it’s a quick fix for quiet listening.
I’ve used this smart speaker in my bedroom for a few years — it is small and compact but sounds clear, crisp and gets very loud. Being able to play music over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth is very convenient and adds flexibility compared to a portable Bluetooth speaker.
This is Sonos’ most compact, lowest-priced soundbar, well-suited to smaller, older TV setups. Unlike Sonos’ other soundbars, the Ray connects to your TV using an optical cable instead of eARC HDMI, which doesn’t allow for the same level of audio control. Otherwise, it has most of the features of the brand’s more expensive offerings, including Wi-Fi connectivity, Apple AirPlay, voice control and more.
