Elegant and simple to install, the 8”
In-Ceiling Speaker sets a high-performance standard for
architectural speakers.
Sonos (Nasdaq: SONO) today introduced the 8″ In-Ceiling
Speaker by Sonos and Sonance, extending the highly successful Sonos
Architectural line of passive speakers. The 8” In-Ceiling Speaker
provides installers and customers with a new size option that sits
discreetly within the ceiling and delivers powerful, balanced and
clear sound. The 8” In-Ceiling Speaker will be coming Spring 2024
for $999/pair.
Optimized and powerful In-Ceiling sound
The 8” In-Ceiling Speaker, designed and tuned in collaboration
with Sonance, features a custom-built, enlarged woofer and
high-excursion motor for a smooth midrange, stunning deep bass down
to 32Hz, and a greater listening area. A 30mm tweeter and newly
optimized waveguide ensures natural sounding vocals and better
high-frequency dispersion, for wide and even coverage that fills
the room with sound.
While the 8” In-Ceiling Speaker is bigger in size than the 6″,
the aesthetics of the magnetic grille are unchanged, ensuring both
models can be used seamlessly together in the same space. The
grille for both 8” and 6” sizes are available in white for a
discreet match with the widest range of ceilings and, thanks to a
specially developed steel grille, can be painted to meet the
customization needs of every client.
“The 8” In-Ceiling Speaker has been designed in direct response
to the needs of our installers, who asked us for more size options
and flexibility during installation,” said Audra Kinsley, VP and GM
of Sonos Professional. "This new addition provides a bold sound
profile and stunning performance that enhances the experience
customers get when Sonos Architectural speakers are paired with
Sonos Amp. The addition of the 8” In-Ceiling Speaker provides
professional installers and customers the freedom and flexibility
to choose the design and sound experience that fits perfectly
within their space.”
Even better when paired with Amp
In combination with Sonos Amp, the Sonos Architectural line
provides crisp and clear multiroom audio. When paired with Sonos
Amp, the In-Ceiling or In-Wall speakers unlock even more benefits
including overdrive protection and custom tuning enhancements that
ensure a fuller sound and a balanced frequency response. In
combination with Sonos Amp the 8” speakers also benefit from
Trueplay™ tuning which accounts for the size, construction, and
furnishings of the room where the speakers are placed, and
automatically adjusts the EQ for optimal sound.
Like all Sonos Architectural speakers, the 8” In-Ceiling Speaker
paired with Sonos Amp will benefit from the Sonos ecosystem
including an easy-to-use app that works with all of your favorite
streaming services, Apple AirPlay 2 control, regular software
updates and the ability to add additional Sonos speakers and
components over time.
Sonos 8” In-Ceiling Speaker by Sonos and Sonance will be coming
Spring 2024 for $999/pair.
