Sonos Setup
Adding a SUB
You can pair the Sonos SUB with any amplified Sonos player, including a PLAYBAR, CONNECT:AMP, PLAY:1, PLAY:3, PLAY:5, or
ZP100. You cannot pair it with an un-amplified Sonos player such as the CONNECT or ZP80.
• The SUB is compatible with Sonos software versions 3.8 and later. Be sure to check for software updates before
adding the SUB to your Sonos system.
Caution: Subwoofers are heavy. Exercise caution when unpacking your SUB. Use the
acoustic slot as a handle to lift the SUB out of the box. (You should always bend your knees
when lifting heavy objects to avoid undue stress on your back.)
Choose a location for the SUB. It is designed to provide optimal sound wherever you place it.
1.
• You can position the SUB either vertically or horizontally. If you are going to use the SUB horizontally on a smooth floor,
you can attach the 4 permanent felt feet (included with your SUB) to each of the corners. See "Attaching the SUB feet
for horizontal placement" on page 14 for more information.
• The SUB is designed to be located on the floor. You can place it in a corner, against the wall, behind, under, or next to
any piece of furniture on any kind of floor surface.
Note: The SUB contains strong magnets. Don't place the SUB near equipment that is
sensitive to magnetic fields.
Attach the power adapter and plug in the SUB. Be sure to push the power cord firmly into the SUB until it is flush with the
2.
surface.
You can pair the SUB with any amplified Sonos player, including a PLAYBAR, CONNECT:AMP, PLAY:1, PLAY:3, PLAY:5, or
ZP100. (The player must be added to your Sonos system before you pair the SUB.)
Make sure at least one side of the rectangular
opening (acoustic slot) is unobstructed.
• If you place the SUB vertically flush against
a wall, do not block the front acoustic slot.
• If you place the SUB horizontally on the
floor, don't put anything on top of it. Leave
at least 1" clearance along the top of the
SUB if placing under furniture.
