#Sonance architectural speakers drivers#
The three models in the Sonos Architectural series share similar specs: Two drivers (1-inch tweeter, 6.5-inch woofer), 8 ohms, 130 watts maximum power, and 89dB SPL sensitivity. No special speaker cables are required, though Sonos recommends using wires that are 16 gauge or larger, and rated for in-wall or outdoor use as appropriate for the install. There are two caveats, however: The outdoor speakers are not Trueplay compatible (presumably because of the difficulty of using Trueplay in a non-quiet environment), and if you connect your own wired subwoofer (instead of using Sonos’s Sub, or no sub at all), Trueplay won’t be available with the in-wall or in-ceiling models either. It’s the first time that Trueplay tuning has been compatible with wired speakers. From there, both the in-wall and in-ceiling the speakers can be tuned by Sonos’s Trueplay feature using the Sonos app on a smartphone or tablet.
Once detected, the Sonos Amp applies the correct DSP for the number and type of speakers connected. It does this using by sending a sine wave over the speaker cables and can then read the unique impedance values at specific frequencies that the Architectural speakers generate. It’s not just one product Sonos Architectural speakers are an entirely new line of products, and the company is launching the collection with three new models: Sonos In-Wall by Sonance ($599 per pair), Sonos In-Ceiling by Sonance ($599 per pair), and Sonos Outdoor by Sonance ($799 per pair).Īll three models are designed to be wired directly into the Sonos Amp, which can automatically detect their presence. Those speakers are now here and they’re called Sonos Architectural by Sonance. When Sonos launched its revamped speaker amplifier, the Sonos Amp, it hinted that we would soon see a new line of wired speakers designed specifically to work with the Amp.
