#76 Sonos Sub (Gen 1): $699 Discontinued eBay
Pros: The force-cancelling dual-driver design delivers clean, substantial bass without cabinet buzz, and it can stand upright or lie flat in spaces where a conventional subwoofer will not fit. It pairs wirelessly with Sonos speakers, with simple setup and system DSP that integrates it smoothly for movies and music.
Cons: It works only within a Sonos system, so it cannot serve as a conventional standalone subwoofer. At 16.5kg it is substantial to move, and reviews find its music bass can sound a little thick rather than fully articulate. This first-generation model is discontinued, so support and compatibility should be checked before buying used. Discontinued.
Notes: low profile (<8in)
How it compares: Just above it: Paradigm Defiance X10 - $287 more. Just below it: Atlantic Technology 224SB - $26 cheaper.
