“Since the very beginning, Sonos has been giving listeners
unparalleled freedom of choice. Our platform gives you the freedom
to play any song you want, any way you want,” said Patrick Spence,
CEO, Sonos. “Move takes freedom of choice to the next level. For
the first time, you can take Sonos anywhere. Move marks the
beginning of a new era for Sonos—one where brilliant sound not only
fills your home, but extends to every part of your day.”
Sonos Move
Move resets the bar from what you’d expect from a portable
speaker with smart, adaptable sound, surprisingly deep bass and a
wide sound profile. Perfectly suited for indoor listening and
powerful sound on the go, Move is two smart speakers in one.
Featuring powerful wireless range, Move is a full part of the Sonos
system, even at the furthest corners of the yard. When away from
home, Move is Sonos’ first product with Bluetooth audio streaming
making it simple to play audio directly from a phone or tablet to
Move for great sound on the go.
Move’s versatility did not sacrifice Sonos’ dedication to sound.
To ensure an even better listening experience in all the places
where Move could go, both indoors and outdoors, Sonos built on its
Trueplay tuning technology with the introduction of automatic
Trueplay where the speaker tunes itself to perfectly balance the
sound for the environment.
Move features a sleek oval shadow-black design. Already
developing products meant to last in the home, Sonos took product
quality testing to new levels. Its premium design pulls no punches
outdoors where Move’s tough durable exterior will withstand falls,
bumps, rain and moisture, dust and dirt, UV and extreme
temperatures and features a rating of IP56.
Built to play all day, Move’s battery allows for up to ten hours
of continuous play time on a single charge. At home, Move easily
slides on and off the included indoor charging base to connect
every time, ensuring it is always ready for listening. Suspend
mode, enabled automatically when not in use or by tapping the power
button, reserves the battery for up to five days.
As the first company to support both leading voice assistants,
like other voice-enabled Sonos devices, the Google Assistant and
Amazon Alexa are built right in, so you can play music, check the
news, control smart home devices, ask questions and much more
completely hands free when on WiFi. As part of Sonos’ platform that
prioritizes choice, connect to more than 100 streaming services -
music, audiobooks, podcasts and more - and control via the Sonos
App, with AirPlay 2, or direct from music service apps.
Move is available globally on sonos.com and through partner
retailers starting September 24 for $399.
Sonos One SL
Further reinforcing Sonos’ commitment to choice, One SL delivers
rich, room-filling sound like Sonos One, without built-in
microphones. A smart speaker without integrated voice assistants,
One SL is a full member of the Sonos sound system to listen to more
than 100 streaming services controlled with the Sonos App, Apple
AirPlay2, music service apps and more. One SL replaces Play:1 and
is available globally starting September 12 for $179.
The compact design, available in all-black and all-white, fits
any space, delivering brilliant sound in any room. One SL features
two Class-D amplifiers perfectly tuned as well as the original
Sonos Trueplay tuning technology that optimizes the sound for any
room. Pair with Sonos One or another One SL in the same room for
stereo separation and more detailed sound - or use a pair as rear
home theater surrounds with Playbar, Playbase, or Beam.
Sonos Port
From any source to any speaker, Port brings Sonos streaming to a
stereo or receiver. The successor to the original Connect, Port
delivers richer sound and extends Sonos’ sound platform to
traditional home audio equipment. Port will be available in limited
quantities starting September 12 with broad global availability
starting January 2020 for $399US.
Designed with the professional installer community in mind, Port
features a versatile design and matte black finish to seamlessly
fit on a shelf or stacked in an AV rack. Optimized for sound and
ease of use, Port includes an updated digital-to-analog converter
and 12V trigger, which automatically turns on an amplifier when
signaled from the Sonos app. Easily control content using AirPlay
2, voice control with Alexa or Google Assistant when wirelessly
connected with smart devices, and seamlessly integrate with the
smart home.
Stream music, podcasts, audiobooks, and internet radio on
amplified audio equipment. And with a line-in option, easily stream
vinyl, CDs, and stored audio files to other Sonos speakers to enjoy
listening in more rooms.
