Dual inward-facing woofers create a force-cancelling effect inside an acoustically sealed cabinet. Trueplay tuning adapts the bass to room acoustics for balanced low-frequency performance.


Deeper, punchier bass - thanks to dual custom inward-facing woofers

Dual custom woofers sit inside an acoustically sealed cabinet and face inward to generate a force-cancelling effect that neutralises distortion. Advanced digital processing shapes low frequencies for dynamic, room-filling bass.

More impact from explosions, drum hits and bass lines without buzz or rattle. Enjoy noticeably fuller sound during films and music in smaller living rooms.

Seamless Sonos integration - with wireless setup through the Sonos app

Plug in the power cable and open the Sonos app to wirelessly connect the sub to compatible Beam, Ray, Era 100, One or One SL units. The sub's volume automatically synchronises with the paired speaker or soundbar.

Quick, fuss-free installation that works with existing Sonos systems. Fine-tune bass levels in the app and have the sub follow the main unit's volume for consistent listening.

Room-adaptive bass tuning - with Trueplay technology

Trueplay tuning measures the room's acoustics and adjusts low-frequency response to avoid harsh, muddy or flat bass. The system compensates for placement next to walls or under furniture.

More reliable bass performance across different room layouts and placements. Keeps low end balanced even when the sub is tucked away or near a wall.
