This Sonos One Offer Is a Great Way to Upgrade to a Surround Sound System
Sonos speakers have never been the most affordable on the market. Every part in their kit costs more, and this can make building an amazing surround sound system an expensive prospect. But the current discount available on refurbished Sonos One SL speakers opens the door to a more affordable upgrade. The speakers will be available for $119 each after being discounted $40 off their regular price (and $80 off the original retail price) after Cyber Monday.
It’s a good deal for those looking to dip their toes into Sonos multi-room audio systems, but it’s perhaps an even more enticing option for those already invested in Sonos gear with one of the company’s Arc, Beam or Ray soundbars.
The Sonos One SL can be conveniently combined into a surround sound system using the Sonos Soundbar, serving as the rear speakers for this setup. The addition of rear surround speakers not only provides more spacious sound, but also adds a whole new level of dynamism to the sound of movies and TV shows. Sonos also has a fun separation of music when using the surround sound setting, which can make it feel like different instruments are playing from across the room.
Considering Sonos’ current base option for surround back is the $249 Era 100, simply adding one of these speakers to your system will cost more than purchasing two Sonos One SL speakers for fuller surround sound. Sonos has also fixed some of the issues its app encountered earlier this year, so they shouldn’t interfere with these speakers working properly.
The fact that the Sonos One SL sold here is a refurbished model may put some off, but that shouldn’t be a problem. The speaker is backed by Sonos’ guarantee that it will be as good as new after repair, and you even get the same one-year warranty as a new model.
