Last year, California-based audio brand Sonos debuted in the Philippines along with the launch of Roam — its entry-level portable speaker — as the first foray product into the brand’s ecosystem. With the launch of Ray, Sonos’ entry-level compact soundbar, Filipinos will be able to experience the brand’s exceptional sound in their own homes.
The Ray will be available to the local market starting September 9 through Mod Audio, the brand’s exclusive distributor in the country. It’s the most affordable variant in Sonos’ lineup of soundbars, but the sound quality, aesthetics, and performance it delivers is no joke. It’s geared to be an all-around entertainment companion for general media consumers. Whether it’s movies, series, music, or even games, the Ray promises a crisp, balanced, and customizable sound with zero-stress setup.
Perceived as the ideal soundbar for small spaces, the Ray embodies Sonos’ TruePlayTM Technology — a feature unique to all Sonos products, which adapts the sound to the unique acoustics of the room. It optimizes the sound quality by measuring how the sound is reflected off of walls and other surfaces thus, allowing the music, sound effects, and dialogues to sound the way it should.
Thanks to its Split Waveguides Technology, it outperforms other similar-sized counterparts from competitor brands and delivers an unrivaled, immersive auditory experience. This technology is responsible for the projection of sound from wall to wall and the accurate positioning of elements in the room, resulting to a precisely balanced sound.
Minimalist in design, uncompromising in performance
The Ray’s compact size and sleek and sophisticated design makes it blend in well to any room’s aesthetics. Users can simply connect the speaker to the TV through an audio jack. Apart from its built-in touch controls, users can also control it through the TV remote, the Sonos app, or the Apple Airplay 2 via WiFi. For a next-level gaming setup, the Ray can also be connected to a PC.
With this specially designed soundbar, users will never have to worry about missing an important conversation from the show — even if the room is crowded. Award-winning Hollywood sound engineers developed the Ray’s Speech Enhancement feature to give a crisp dialogue so listeners can follow the story with ease.
Another key highlight is the Night Mode feature that is made in favor of all the night owls who stay up late to play games or binge-watch a series. While the Speech Enhancement ensures a consistently clear dialogue all throughout, the Night Mode reduces the intensity of sound, allowing others at home to sleep without any kind of disturbance.
