Your gateway to surround sound
Dolby Digital Sound
Looking to increase the volume and impact of your TV audio? The Sonos Ray soundbar is the perfect solution for a smaller or secondary room, or even just to bring out the vocal performance on your television. You won’t get the full Dolby Atmos performance of the Sonos Beam Gen 2 or Arc, but the Sonos Ray is capable of handling Dolby Digital surround sound, with the vocal, mid and bass performance split between Ray’s two tweeters and two mid-woofer drivers.
Through a simple optical connection to your TV (cable supplied in box), your Sonos Ray will expertly handle both standard stereo and Dolby Digital audio.
Control from anywhere in the home
Wireless Streaming
Like other Sonos products before it, the Sonos Ray can be used for wireless music streaming as well as for your TV audio. Using the Sonos App, you’ll be able to access your favourite streaming services, digital radio stations, podcasts and more by just linking your service account.
The Sonos Ray doesn’t have voice assistant inbuilt, but you are able to use an Amazon or Google voice-assistant product to control the Sonos Ray if you have one in the same room. Sonos is compatible with a wider Alexa or Google Assistant ecosystem in the home.
Buildable over time
Use with a Sub and Surrounds
If you’d like to build a surround sound system over time, you’ll be pleased to know that the Sonos Ray can be added to over time with a Sonos Sub and/ or pair of surround rears (e.g. Sonos One SLs).
Thanks to the Sonos Ray’s dual tweeter and midwoofer set up, you’ll be able to achieve a great Dolby Digital Surround Sound set up from this system. The Ray Sub and/or rears is a great option to elevate your home movie system, particularly if you have a smaller room or TV set.
Fits Anywhere
Streamlined Design
Taking an understated approach, the Sonos Ray has a sleek polycarbonate grille and hardened plastic perimeter to protect the internal components. Much like other soundbars in the range, the Sonos Ray has a range of touch controls on top allowing you to skip/repeat, play/pause and adjust the volume. Both the Optical connection point, power cable and optional ethernet connection are located on the back of the speaker and hidden from view when installed.
The Sonos Ray uses only front-firing speaker drivers, meaning that unlike the Beam and Arc this can be fully recessed into a media unit or shelf without impeding any side or upward-firing drivers. This makes it the perfect solution for a smaller room, as the Ray can be tucked out of the way without taking away anything from the soundbar’s performance.
