Sonos Roam 2-Pack

Speaker Section

Drop Resistant & Waterproof (IP67): Solidly constructed and rated IP67, the Sonos Roam is drop resistant, waterproof up to 3' for 30 minutes, and impervious to dust for your outdoor adventures. The IP67 rating makes the Sonos Roam dust & water proof; it can be submerged in up to 3' of water for up to 30 minutes. Its rugged and durable outer shell is also resistant to bumps and falls; humidity, salt spray, and UV rays; and hot or cold temperatures.

Audio Section: The Sonos Roam's precision-engineered acoustics deliver the clarity, depth, and fullness you would expect from a much larger speaker. It utilizes a 2-way driver design with one dome tweeter for crisp high-frequencies and one cone woofer for faithful playback of midrange/midbass frequencies. Both drivers are powered by individual Class-H digital amplifiers that have been perfectly tuned to the speaker's unique acoustic architecture. You can use the Sonos S2 app to adjust bass, treble, and loudness.

• Auto Trueplay: The Sonos Roam speaker's built-in microphone array detect what type of music is playing and measure the frequency response of your surroundings. Using this Trueplay Tuning software, the speaker then adjusts its EQ for perfectly balanced sound. Auto Trueplay is triggered whenever the Roam speaker is placed in a new location, and continuously refines the sound while the Roam is stationary. Make sure the Roam's microphone array is turned on (Auto Trueplay will not work when the microphone array is turned off). Trueplay tuning available via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth
• Stereo Pairing: You can use two Sonos Roam speakers in a stereo pair - one speaker acts as a dedicated left, while the other speaker acts as a dedicated right. Stereo Pairing is only available when the Sonos Roam is in Network (Wi-Fi) mode; not available in Bluetooth mode. The Sonos Roam cannot be used as wireless rear surrounds. The Sonos Roam will not pair with the Sonos Sub and cannot be used as wireless surrounds.

Mounting Options: The Sonos Roam can be positioned vertically or horizontally on a flat table-top surface. When positioned vertically, the Roam has a minimal footprint and the rounded triangular shape can tuck neatly into a corner anywhere space is at a premium. You can also lay the Roam speaker horizontally for stability on uneven ground it will subtly direct the sound upward in the direction of your ears for a better listening experience.

Far-Field Microphone Array: A built-in far-field microphone array allows Sonos, Alexa, or Google to hear you from anywhere in the room. When the microphone LED is on, Sonos, Alexa or Google Assistant is ready for a voice command. You can speak at a natural volume to activate supported voice commands. A responsive audio chime lets you know Sonos, Alexa, or Google has been heard you and is working on a response (you can turn this feature on or off). You can mute the microphone for privacy. An illuminated LED indicator light ensures you always know when your speaker's microphone is active or muted.

Sonos Voice Control: Sonos Voice Control was created purely for listening on Sonos and delivers fast, accurate hands-free control of your music and your Sonos system with privacy. With Sonos Voice Control, you can use voice requests to control the Sonos Roam and other Sonos products in your system. You can even ask Sonos Voice for multiple things on multiple Sonos products at once. Sonos Voice Control finds the music you want to listen to by processing requests entirely on the device for faster response times and effortless follow-ups. All you need is one "Hey Sonos" and you can follow up without the need for additional wake-words. Just like the Sonos app, you can control music and speakers in any room, easily play music around the home, save and like your favorite songs to your personal music library, and more.

• Google Assistant: You can ask Google to play music on a specific Sonos device in an specific room of your home from these featured music services (Google Play, Spotify, YouTube Music, Pandora, Deezer, Tidal, TuneIn, and iHeartRadio).

Click here for more information regarding Google Assistant on Sonos.

Notes:

• Voice Control is only operational when the Sonos Roam is in Network (Wi-Fi) mode. Voice Control is not available in Bluetooth mode.
• You can only configure your Sonos system to work with one digital voice assistant; choose either Alexa or Google Assistant (you cannot use both).
• You will need to search and enable the Sonos skill from the Alexa or Google Home app on your mobile device or computer.
• Your Sonos equipment and Amazon Alexa-enabled devices must be on the same wireless network.
• Sonos and Alexa or Google Assistant work together using a single Amazon or Google account. If you have a second Sonos system in another location, you'll need to use a second Amazon or Google account if you'd like to use Alexa.
• An Amazon or Google account can only be in use on one Sonos system at a time.

Push-Button Control: In addition to the Sonos S2 app, the Roam offers integrated push-button control. Simply press the buttons on the Roam to play, pause, adjust the volume, skip, replay, turn off the microphones, and manually pair a Bluetooth device.

Automatic Updates: The Sonos Roam supports free automatic software updates so you will always have the newest features and music services to enjoy. Simply register the One and Sonos will automatically notify you when software updates are available through the Sonos Controller app. By simply pressing one button your system updates itself. The Sonos Roam must be connected to your home network and the internet for automatic software updates (firmware updates are not available in Bluetooth mode).

System Requirements

Internet Service Provider: You'll need a high-speed, wired internet service provider connection such as cable, fiber, or DSL. Wireless internet connections such as satellite, mobile hotspots, or 4G LTE routers can experience delays between the internet connection and Sonos and are not supported. Using these types of connections can cause music to not play, skip, or cut out completely.

Wireless Setup: All Sonos products support 2.4GHz Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g) and Open, WEP, and WPA/WPA2 Personal Wi-Fi security standards. Some newer Sonos products support dual-band 2.4/5GHz Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n/ac) and WPA3.

• The network must not contain enterprise access points that have been configured to require certificates or other forms of enterprise authentication. If you are using multiple access points, make sure they are all set to the same 2.4GHz or 5GHz wireless channel.
• Networks using wireless range extenders are known to cause issues with Sonos systems that are configured in a wireless setup. If you need to extend your home Wi-Fi to use Sonos in a wireless setup, we recommend using a Wi-Fi mesh router to do so.
• Sonos cannot connect to guest networks or networks that use a Port page to login.

Wired Setup Requirements: A Sonos system operating in a wired setup will require one of your Sonos products to remain connected to the router via Ethernet cable at all times. If your Sonos system is in a wired setup and you use a Wi-Fi mesh router with multiple wireless nodes, we recommend wiring your Sonos product directly to the primary wired mesh node. Avoid wiring any Sonos products to the wireless mesh nodes. If you are on a corporate or advanced network, it must not block Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).

Note: Ethernet over Power devices (also known as HomePlugs or Powerline adaptors) are not supported by Sonos. While they may work for some systems, they tend to cause intermittent problems with Sonos. EoP adapters create an added delay between your network and Sonos. If the internet connection is too slow or the delay is too great, it can cause your music to skip or cut out completely or your players to drop off from the network.

Sonos S1 or S2 Controller App: Sonos offers a Sonos Controller app for Apple iOS 14.0+, Android OS 8.0+, Fire OS 7.0+, Mac OSX 10.11+, and Windows 8+. The Sonos S2 is a new app and operating system (OS) that powers the next generation of products and experiences. In addition to new features, usability updates, and more personalization moving forward, Sonos S2 enables higher resolution audio technologies for music and home theater. Most Sonos products are compatible with S2. Some older Sonos "legacy" products will not support the advances of S2 due to their memory and processing power. The older Sonos "legacy" app is referred to as the Sonos S1 app.

• Sonos Products That Support the Sonos S1 and S2 Controller App: Play:1, Play:3, Play:5 (Gen 2), Playbase, Playbar, Connect (Gen 2), Connect:Amp (Gen 2), One (Gen 1/2), Beam, Amp, Port, Boost, Move, Sub (Gen 1/2).

Notes:

• If you have both, older "legacy" Sonos products and newer Sonos products, you have the option to create two separate eco-systems - one that will be controlled with the older Sonos S1 controller app and the other that will be controlled by the newer Sonos S2 controller app.
• Click here for more information regarding Sonos "Legacy" S1 versus the new Sonos S2 Operating System and App.
