Sonos Roam 2 BT Speaker Is Here for 2024!

Here at Aire Theater Designs, we are audio guys. We like big speakers, powerful amplifiers and rocking sound. However, it is very difficult to carry our 156 pound Martin Logan XTF100 tower speaker pair to the beach, let alone the cords and cables. For these times, we like having a portable speaker to take with us. Sonos has just released their new Bluetooth portable speaker called the Roam 2 and here's the scoop.

• .95 pounds
• 10 hour battery life (NOTE: Your mileage may vary depending on volume and other factors)
• 5 color choices
• IP67 waterproof protection (3 feet of depth for up to 30 minutes)
• Bluetooth, WiFi and has Airplay 2

Sonos Turntable Options For 2024 - You Need One Now!

Remember those things that we used to have in our stereo systems? You would place a big, round black disc on it and the disc would go round-and-round in a circle? Sonos remembers these "turntables" and has released a new and awesome option to listen to your favorite music. Why is this a good thing?

Sonos Trade Up Policy for 2024

Of the two images of old, ancient things above, which do you think has the best trade in policy? If you were to pick the Methuselah tree in the Eastern Sierra...you are wrong! Did you know that we and Sonos offer up to 30% off new Sonos product when you trade in your old, dusty Sonos speaker, pre-amp, soundbar or amplifier? Why upgrade?

Sonos New App for 2024 - Don't Be Frightened!

If you open up your Sonos app on May 7th, you may notice a distinctly different look. Don't worry...you didn't push some wacky button (this isn't one you can blame on your spouse). Sonos is releasing a major re-tool of the Sonos app for 2024. We haven't gotten a chance as dealers to play with a sample or emulator but there are a few things to be aware of:

1 - This will have a look that is more in line with Spotify or Amazon Music where you can get to your desired music services or favorites from the HOME screen as opposed to using the previous bottom toolbar to access your features. This is touted as providing a quicker way to get to common features and music options.

2 - The BIGGEST difference will most likely (as we haven't had a chance to test the app yet) be with how you play Sonos throughout your whole-house music system. If you have Sonos in various areas, you previously would press the middle button on the horizontal bar at the bottom of the app. See below.

Old Sonos app

This would then bring up your various rooms/areas of Sonos. With the new Sonos app, you will press their speaker/device icon. This is much more in line with how you play Spotify or Amazon through your music system. Spotify calls this "Spotify Connect". Maybe Sonos thought that this would be more intuitive?

See the icon below to the left of PLAY on the bottom horizontal toolbar. Pushing this will display any Sonos speakers or components that are in your home. You can then group all of the music together OR play different sources on different speakers (ex: You can play Queensryche through Spotify in the Family Room and The Cure through the Pandora app outside.

We will be producing a video that goes over the changes with the new Sonos app once we have a chance to test it thoroughly. Check out and subscribe to our Youtube page at the link below if you'd like to be updated once we finish it.
