Blockbuster Sound from a Standalone Soundbar
Exactly what you need to elevate your TV, music, and gaming experiences, the Sonos Ray is a compact, standalone soundbar with exceptional wireless connectivity. This slimline speaker system features four Class D amplifiers, powering two tweeters for crisp highs and crystal-clear dialogue, along with two midwoofers for faithful reproduction of the midrange frequencies and maximum low-end impact. Moreover, Ray’s proprietary low-velocity port design curtails unwanted distortion and rounds out bass frequencies. Additionally, its forward‑facing acoustic elements minimize interference from nearby surfaces, ensuring blockbuster sound even in the tightest of spaces. This state-of-the-art soundbar provides high-resolution audio streaming over Wi-Fi and Apple AirPlay 2, and thanks to Trueplay tuning technology and adjustable EQ, Speech Enhancement, and Night Sound settings via the Sonos app, Ray adapts flawlessly to any acoustic environment. You can also effortlessly swap TV audio between the soundbar and up to two Sonos Ace headphones, bolstered by TrueCinema technology for incredibly lifelike surround effects. Beyond that, you can control Ray directly from an impressive stable of supported apps and third-party devices, and you can use it alone, paired with a second speaker for extra-wide stereo, as part of a surround sound home theater system, or integrated into a multiroom Sonos setup. Finally, you get support for stereo PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS Digital Surround audio formats. With the Sonos Ray, you can enrich any space with high-fidelity cinematic sound.

Feel every impact, hear every word
Wherever you choose to listen, Ray will fill the room with heavenly highs, articulate dialogue, and high-impact low end. It all starts with four incredibly potent Class D amplifiers, meticulously tuned to the soundbar’s unique acoustic architecture. Two high-efficiency midwoofers inject the lowest frequencies with incredible heft, ensuring that you feel every thunderclap and explosion. A pair of tweeters yields a crisp high-frequency response while bringing dialogue forward for maximum intelligibility. Additionally, Ray’s proprietary low-velocity port design minimizes unwanted distortion and flabby bass, while its forward-facing acoustic elements safeguard against interference from nearby surfaces — even in enclosed spaces, such as a shelf in your TV stand. Lastly, Ray includes Speech Enhancement and Night Sound features, both accessible via the Sonos app, to boost dialogue clarity and provide crystal-clear low-volume listening.
Wireless playback without limits
The Sonos Ray is primed for premium wireless playback, thanks to onboard Wi-Fi, bolstered by Ethernet for hardwiring to your router, enabling you to stream high-resolution lossless audio from anywhere in your home. Additionally, AirPlay 2 support allows you to stream directly from your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, and you can use Siri on your device to play Apple Music via the Apple Home app. You also get Trueplay, which leverages your iOS device’s built-in microphones to optimize the soundbar for your room’s acoustics. Beyond that, you can pair two Rays for out-of-this-world stereo performance with a super-expansive soundstage, integrate it into your surround sound home theater system, or send sound to all the Sonos speakers in your home for a best-in-class multiroom listening experience.
