Sonos Ray Launch
I was so excited to have been invited to the launch of Sonos Ray at Planetworld. Having been a huge fan of Sonos over the last few years I was humbled to get a sneak peak of the Sonos Ray!
The Sonos Ray is an impressively compact and easy to use sound bar, I was extremely impressed by the overall design of it and how light it was. The product is available in two colours: black and white. I opted for the black and it fit right into my home.
The Sonos Ray is a small soundbar with an affordable price tag attached to it. The Ray soundbar also produces well-balanced sound. The Ray is a perfect fit for an apartment or home —or if you have the right TV connection. The Ray measures 22 x 3.7 x 2.8 inches which makes it easy to style, whether it be for your computer monitor, Smaller TV (55’) or console table - it’s a great match.
I was incredibly impressed with how the Ray handled music. The Ray is now my main speaker for music in my home. I’d highly recommend this soundbar if you don’t have an incredibly big budget but would love to have good sound in your home! You won’t be disappointed.
