Sonos Outdoor Speakers - White

Product Information

No, Sonos does not currently make any other outdoor speakers. These Sonos Outdoor hardwired speakers are specifically designed for outdoor use. However there is a company that will take your Sonos One speaker and waterproof it so you can leave it outside. How Many Sonos Outdoor Speakers Can Be Connected To A Single Sonos Amp? The Sonos Outdoor by Sonance Speakers provide the same high level listening experience that Sonos speakers are known for with the ease of providing streaming music to your outdoor space. Sonos Outdoor Speakers by Sonance are rated for outdoor use and can be installed in locations where they will be exposed to the elements. Does Sonos Make Any Other Outdoor Speakers? Wire each speaker independently with a minimum of 2 conductor outdoor rated 14 gauge speaker wiring if you wiring run is less than 80FT and if your wiring is more than 80FT you should use 12 gauge wiring which will work with speaker runs up to 120-150FT. If you have a wiring run further than that it’s probably best to just dedicate another space closer to the speakers to place the Sonos Amps. Below we have two recommended types of high quality outdoor speaker wire in both 12 gauge& 14 gauge wiring. We recommend these two outdoor speaker cables because they have 2 conductors but they also have an outer sheath on them that will protect the wire for direct burial installations, and from UV degradation when the wire is exposed. With the sheath the cables are easier to pull in wall and will be more resistant to damage which can often occur durring installation.

The Sonos Outdoor Speakers are up to the task and can provide exceptional sound in a wide variety of outdoor settings. You can power up to 6 Sonos Outdoor Speakers with one Sonos Amp, providing you streaming music throughout your outdoor space. Sonos Outdoor Speaker Review: Features Sonance has been around a long time and was one of the higher quality speakers manufacturers that we ended up gravitating too for built in installations prior to the announcement of their partnership with Sonos, so it’s a great thing these two companies teamed up to create an amazing sounding product.

Sonos created a collaborative partnership with Sonance known as one of the best built in and outdoor speaker manufacturers in the world. If you already have indoor Sonos Speakers you know that they have great sound and the easy to use app interfaces makes Sonos the sound system of choice in many homes. Sonos also works with Alexa so you can make music play from your sound system by saying “Alexa, play music on outdoor speakers.” It's also easy to place the wiring behind vinyl siding corners as they are just clipped in and easy to place wires behind.

The Outdoor in Sonos by Sonance speakers are among the most powerful and capable outdoor speakers on the market and when paired with a Sonos Amp offer smart features that are unmatched by any other sound system. The Sonos by Sonance speakers also offer a full line of speaker options with in ceiling speakers, in wall speakers and outdoor speakers to fit the needs of your home. Sonos has provided high quality sound for years and the Sonos Outdoor Speakers by Sonance are no different. I’m listening to a Sonos sound system as I’m writing this and couldn’t be happier with the amazing sound quality provided by their speakers. You will then need to drill through from the exterior where you are placing your Sonos Amp to connect the wiring. If you have wood, vinyl or aluminum siding it is typically not hard drill a hole to the exterior. You can use a 16” long drill bit and it should get your through any normal exterior wall. What I have noticed with built in Sonance speakers paired with the Sonos Amp is that they have great low range and exceptional clarity and are up to the task of providing great sound in the open outdoor spaces. The Sonance Outdoors speakers seem to do an exceptional job of filling outdoor spaces with clean, balanced sound from streaming media sources. So how do you know if you should have individual zones for each area or if you it will be ok to control multiple areas with one Sonos zone?

Too expensive

These speakers are built tough and can withstand humidity, water, salt spray, heat, UV rays, and freezing temperatures and are designed to placed outside and remain outside. And then Sonos has done something clever. Instead of trying to make their own speakers, something many others probably do better than them, they have chosen a manufacturer to work with. Specifically, Sonance, which is widely known for recessed and outdoor speakers in all shapes, with high quality. Mariner-based The Sonos Outdoor speakers are designed to work with the Sonos Amp to power the speakers and stream music from your phone and are paired with outdoor speakers. The pair of Sonos Outdoor of speakers is then hardwired with low voltage speaker wiring to the Sonos Amp that will then provide power, volume control and streaming music directly to the built in sonos speakers. With the Sonos app you can always group or ungroup multiple areas to sync music with the touch of a button but having multiple zone control is determined by how many Sonos Amps you have in your system. One Sonos Amp = one group with anywhere from 2-6 Sonos by Sonance Outdoor or Built in speakers. To make your Sonos Outdoor speaker system future compatible you should do the following: The truth is you don’t until you’ve lived with an installed Sonos Amp and Sonance Outdoor speaker system and played around with how you use the system. Here’s the thing, if you follow our general guidelines for wiring below you could always add separate Sonos Zone or room control later by adding more Sonos Amps to your existing system without opening walls or adding wiring in the future.

If you can’t wire the speakers though a soffit you and plan to drill through the wall you will need a long masonry bit at ideally 18” long like this one from Dewalt to get through the wall and hammer drill. I’ve used a Milwaukee 18V hammer drill to drill through masonry walls and works great it just takes a little more time and effort. You should plan on drilling between the grout lines to make going through the wall as easy as possible. The Sonos Outdoor by Sonance speakers take all of the guess work out of the equation and you know when you connect them to the Sonos Amp you’re going to get amazing sound. Outdoor Speakers for Sonos : A collaborative Effort My experience installing Sonos products has been that people don’t return Sonos products they just buy more of them to complement their system and with these built in speakers I imagine that will be the case.Sonos is on a somewhat unfamiliar ground, having for the first time embarked in the art of making passive speakers. What they do best is active, wireless multi-room speakers. But because many customers who want multi-room at the same time want to keep the existing stereo speakers in the living room, Sonos has also always offered an amplifier with built-in streaming, in one form or another. And to keep things simple, it is simply called Amp.
