I have been using a Beam plus two Ones for surround sound for a few years now. I have always found the sound quality, including the bass range, to be exceptional for what it is. How Sonos got so much bass out of a little soundbar always amazed me! When they released the sub mini I took the plunge and overall I have been very happy with it. It hasn’t transformed the sound of my system, obviously there is more bass at the extreme lower levels which is what I expected, but the idea of the sub taking bass notes in order to let the Beam deal better with mid range? I can’t say I have noticed a big improvement in that area, it was pretty good before.
I have been into hifi since the 1970’s and I have yet to hear a compact system like Sonos come close to a decent hifi with good quality stereo speakers. But as far as convenience, versatility and appearance is concerned, Sonos is a winner, switch on the telly, you get surround sound, no fiddling with amps and inputs. Ask Alexa to play Radio 2 and she does, no fiddling with tuning dials. Play music from your phone, easy, no messing with records or cassettes or CD’s. It’s the future!
