Dual Sonos Subs - Overrated or Amazing?

Sonos has added a new feature where you can connect an additional Sub to a home theater setup. Is this overrated or is it a game-changer?

I feel like the first question you should ask yourself is..."can I afford a second sub 🤔"

[RQuinton]

Multiple subs makes a HUGE difference in audio quality, particularly in a medium to larger room. It seems in theory to be overkill, but in reality the bass evens out in ways one never expected to hear because it is (was) not common to have multiple subs.

Great video, again. I appreciate your content and hope companies realize how good you are and start to reach out with demo units for review.

I have updated my Sonos system (ARC+ 2 One-SL and 1 sub gen3) and added a second sub.
The Sonos sub brings a great update to the whole listening experience. I did notice that the sub is somewhat directional.
You always notice where the sub is in the room.
By adding the second sub, this phenomenon has completely disappeared, and I experience a more homogeneous baseline.

I just got a second sub yesterday, it sounds so good!! Seems like it smoothed out the bass alot and fills the entire room now. Doesnt feel louder, just better

I almost closed the video the moment you said we need to run a ethernet cable between the two subs....very funny :)

Hi thanks for your continued sonos support. This coming October 2022, I would have enough budget to purchase the Sonos Sub(gen3). I already have the arc and two oneSL. Stay safe and healthy!

[Adesico]

Whoa whoa whoa!!! You’re able to add multiple subs to the arc soundbar?! No flipping way.

I was window shopping at Nebraska furniture mart tonight, wasn’t even looking at sound bar systems until I overheard a salesman showing off the Arc- I was immediately hooked. Now I’m even more interested after seeing this video

[jamesrose]

I bought 2 gen 3s.. hey it’s only money and the sound is fantastic!!!

I almost shat my pants when you said the thing about the sub. I was like "well shit, either I'm wrong or he is" good video' dude! Make True Play for Android Sonos.

I am absolutely blown away with my SONOS system so far minus the extra sub. But I do plan to add it in the near future. System is really incredible and sounds amazing when used for watching movies. Music is also better than other average systems however, as you said many streaming services don't offer premium sound options.

Once you go dual sub you never go back. It really is an amazing difference.

Hi Jonah, Happy new year from France. I will be moving in 2021 from a house with no neighbors to a flat with neighbors. I have today a 7.1 HC system, but our new living room, the WAF and the increasing quality of the soundbars leads me to a soundbar in the new flat. Thank you dor your soundbars reviews and your advice are welcome. As Sonos did it, I hope Sennheiser or LG will improve their soundbars so I can buy in september a great system. And I love your cats, there are very cute.

Took me years, but I finally got a second Play 5 for the rear channels and it’s ABSOLUTELY INSANE. They’re relatively easy to wall mount, then dial in through the True Tune on the app. I honestly don’t see the need for a second Sonos Sub with how rich the Play 5’s are. The first one I received shocked me with how large it actually is, but after hearing their range, it makes sense why.

[VictorFoote]

Loving the quality of this video. Did you get a new camera? Keep up the amazing work Jonah!

[RayHodge]

My friend has this set up with 2 subs, all I have to say is it's truly a movie feel for real!!

[mp]

They are effing amazing! I just added a sub to the playbar and two play 5s and it's the best stereo I've had by far

[admstudios]

Hope they make a 9.2.4 system i love the sound of Sonos 💪👌

[bryansteven]

I've had dual subs since the update basically & couldn't (wouldn't) go back to a single. I do understand the cost though. Perhaps wait for another sale like they had on BF.

[neville]

Is it worth getting the sub? I went from a middle of the pack Samsung bar with a sub, I’m happy with the bass, but i can tell it’s missing the “umph” I have a 100 bucks off so I’m thinking about getting it
