Size Defying Sound

Sonos Roams Precision-engineered acoustics offer performance beyond its compact size. Two Class-H digital Amplifiers power One Cylindrical mid-woofer & One Tweeter that let you enjoy the clarity, depth & fullness found in much larger speakers. 

Automatic Trueplay Tuning ensures that the Roam sounds great wherever you’re listening by adjusting your speaker’s settings to suit its surroundings. Simple place it down for 15 seconds and Trueplay will automatically adapt the sound for you.

Long Lasting Battery For All Your Adventures

With an impressive 10 hour battery life on a single charge, Roam is ready all-day long. To save power, Roam will switch to a low power mode/fall asleep when not in use. Wake it up with the press of a button and start listening again in seconds. This sleep mode conserves power & the battery can last up to 10 days.

The Sonos Roam comes with a USB-C charging cable but it is also compatible with QI chargers. You can purchase Sonos’ separate matching charging base to have a more permanent charging dock in your home.
