The Sonos Bluetooth Speaker Is $40 Off

Yesterday’s discount on The Sonos Ace over-ear headphones weren’t the only sale you can find on new additions to your Sonos setup. You can also purchase the Sonos Roam 2 for just $139 as part of the Amazon Spring Sale. This Bluetooth speaker delivers great sound despite its relatively compact size, and of course, it works well with your other Sonos speakers.

Unlike older Sonos products, the Roam 2 now has Bluetooth in addition to Wi-Fi. When you’re home, the speaker joins your network and acts like any other Sonos speaker in your setup. Take it with you and you can easily connect your phone and continue listening to music. The Sonos app isn’t always the best for finding new speakers, but in this case it kicked in and connected to the Roam 2, good news for those who get easily frustrated. It has a fun sound profile that’s ideal for picnics or backyard outings, with solid bass and balanced mids and highs. Some other Bluetooth speakers can get noisier, but the Roam 2 compensates for this by joining a chorus of other speakers in your home.

While the first-generation Roam suffered from long-term battery health issues, Sonos assured us that the Roam 2 largely fixed the problem, and at least in the short time our reviewer Parker Hall spent with it, it was no longer an issue. The exterior is also slightly prone to stains and scuffs, which is something to keep in mind if you prefer your gear to look pristine. It is, however, waterproof and quite sturdy, so just be aware that any marks you see on the case are only at surface level.

I spotted the black and white discount, but they’re both marked as “Limited Time Offers,” so you’ll need to act quickly if you’re interested.
