The audio savvy knows that a single speaker isn’t enough to reproduce an entire soundstage. If you could pick one more speaker to complement your primary soundbar or speaker, then a subwoofer would undoubtedly make the most meaningful impact. As part of the big Sonos Spring Sale, the certified refurbished Sonos Sub (Gen 3) wireless subwoofer, which is normally listed at $639, is down to just $409 with free shipping. Compare that to buying a brand new Sonos Sub (Gen 4) for $899 and you’re saving over 50% off.
Note that Sonos refurbished products go through rigorous testing and look and work as if they were brand new. They come with all accessories, manuals, and documentation and are reshipped in “pristine” packaging. Most importantly, Sonos includes the same 1-year warranty as buying a retail product.
Sonos Sub (Gen 3) for $409
The Sub (Gen 3) is Sonos’ full-sized subwoofer, featuring dual inward-facing 5″x8″ woofers matched with Class-D digital amplifiers and a traditional ported design that allows for a louder and deeper low-end. Despite the relatively compact size, this is a hefty subwoofer weighin in at over 35 pounds (which is a good thing). The Sub 3 is strictly a networked subwoofer; connectivity options include either wireless over 802.11n WiFi or wired over a 10/100 ethernet cable that then connects to your router. The Sub 3 pairs seamlessly with other Sonos speakers and is the perfect complement to your Sonos Arc soundbar or a pair of Era bookshelf speakers.
The Sub 3 offers identical performance to the new Sub 4. The only differences are the finish (matte vs glossy), the Wi-Fi connectivity (802.11n vs WiFi 6), and a more powerful processor (1.9GHz/512GB vs 1.5GHz/256GB). Would you really pay $390 more for those incremental updates? I hope not.
