The weather is starting to warm up, which means it’s time to take out the outdoor gear you’ve been stowing away since winter. Whether you plan to tailgate at a sports game or camp out in the woods, consider bringing along a portable speaker to share good tunes with your friends and family.
As part of its March Madness Sale, Sonos is offering a 23% off discount on its popular Roam 2 wireless portable speaker. Normally it’s listed for $180, but this deal brings it down to $139 with free shipping. You can play it safe and pick either white or black since they match with everything, or you can go a little bold with the sunset, wave, or olive colors. Either way you better hurry, because this sale ends on March 29.
Sonos Roam 2 Portable Speaker
Sonos, as always, does a good job of delivering excellent sound quality in a compact footprint. The Roam 2 measures 6.6 inches by 2.3 inches by 2.4 inches and weighs just under a pound, so it’s easy to stow away in a bag of any size. Because the Roam 2 is intended to be used outdoors, the shell is IP67 rated, meaning it’s completely protected from dust and is waterproof up to 3 feet underwater for 30 minutes.
The diminutive chassis houses one tweeter, which covers the high-end, and one mid-woofer, which handles the mid- and low-end. Both drivers are paired Class-H digital amplifiers. The internal lithium battery can run the speaker wirelessly for up to 10 hours before needing to be recharged. A built-in microphone allows for voice control, although there are also physical touch buttons conveniently placed on one end of the speaker.
Although the Roam 2 frequently goes on sale during Sonos’ bigger sale events, I’ve never seen the price drop lower than $139. In fact, this matches the lowest price I saw during Black Friday. If you’re looking for the best possible price for this particular speaker, you’re probably looking at it.
