(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home4/scienrds/scienceandnerds/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Source: https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/5\/16\/23073977\/sonos-sub-mini-affordable-subwoofer-design-preview<\/a> Sonos announced its most affordable soundbar to date last week. But some of the company\u2019s loyal customers were disappointed by the lack of a less expensive subwoofer to go along with the new Sonos Ray<\/a>. It felt like the perfect opportunity to announce a product that\u2019s been rumored for months. The only subwoofer that Sonos currently sells is the $749 Sub, which costs more than both the Ray and Beam \u2014 so it\u2019s hard to justify as an accessory at those terms. <\/p>\n But despite no announcement last week, The Verge<\/em> can confirm that Sonos is coming closer to releasing a smaller, less costly subwoofer that will be able to wirelessly pair with the Sonos Ray, Beam, and Arc. Rumors about such a device popped up a few months ago<\/a> after Sonos accidentally spilled some early details in its mobile app. At the time, screenshots revealed the product\u2019s name \u2014 the Sub Mini \u2014 and The Verge<\/em> is now able to further corroborate this branding. <\/p>\n More importantly, for the first time, after seeing an image of the upcoming product, I\u2019m able to share a preview of the Sub Mini\u2019s general design. In the earlier leak, Sonos described it as a \u201csmaller, cylindrical subwoofer,\u201d and The Verge\u2019s<\/em> 3D render matches that. The Sub Mini is Sonos model S37, coming directly after S36, which ended up being the $279 Ray. <\/p>\n Ask any Sub owner and they\u2019ll likely vouch for what a huge difference the subwoofer makes when watching movies or even listening to music. When Sonos soundbars recognize a linked Sub, they adjust audio output to focus on higher frequencies, leaving the low rumble and floor-rattling bass to the dedicated subwoofer. <\/p>\n The main thing that distinguishes the Sub Mini hardware is an elongated, pill-shaped vertical cutout right in the middle of the device. It just so happens that the regular Sub has a rectangular cutout, so Sonos seems to have settled on this both for functionality and as a design trait of sorts. In the case of the Sub, there are acoustic ports on both sides, so it would follow that the Sub Mini will have a similar internal layout \u2014 albeit with smaller, less powerful components.<\/p>\n Features, specific release timing, and pricing details for the Sub Mini could not yet be learned, and the same goes for the hardware\u2019s actual size and dimensions. But the broad strokes design seen here should mostly resemble whatever Sonos announces in the coming months. The Verge<\/em> has reached out to the company for comment.<\/p>\n
