Sonos Sub Gen 4 Premium Wireless Subwoofer

Sonos Sub 4 – Premium Wireless Subwoofer

Sonos Sub 4 is a next-gen premium wireless subwoofer designed to unlock deeper, more cinematic bass in your Sonos system—without the buzz, rattle, or muddy low end that can overwhelm a room. Dual Sonos-engineered drivers and a ported enclosure deliver chest-thumping impact down to 25 Hz, while the force-canceling acoustic design virtually eliminates distortion for clean, confident bass at any volume.

Built for flexible placement, Sub 4 connects over WiFi so you can position it upright or lay it flat to fit under furniture, then fine-tune performance with Trueplay™ room tuning (supported setup required). Pair it with compatible Sonos soundbars and speakers to offload the lowest frequencies, improving clarity and precision across mids and highs—so dialogue sounds crisper, music feels more spacious, and action hits harder.

What It's Good At:

• Delivering deep, powerful low-end bass down to 25 Hz for movies, TV, and music
• Eliminating buzz and rattle with a force-canceling dual-driver design that keeps bass clean
• Improving overall system clarity by handling the lowest frequencies so paired speakers sound sharper
• Flexible placement with dual orientation (upright or flat) plus WiFi connectivity for easy room integration
• Quick, app-guided setup with a dedicated Join button and Sonos app control
• Smarter next-gen performance with updated internal electronics, including a faster processor, more memory, and a WiFi 6 radio
