Full Sound and Easy Controls:
Sonos has built a reputation for crisp, full-sounding speakers, and the Sonos Move is no exception. The Move rocks a mid-woofer that provides rich mid-range frequencies, as well as a deep hit of bass. The new Sonos includes a downward-firing tweeter speaker that shoots a clear, high-frequency response evenly across the space — a.k.a the soundscape. In addition to well-crafted speakers, Sonos uses Trueplay™ technology that balances the sound to fit the space it’s in; whether that be next to the pool, in the garage, or in your bedroom. To achieve this, the Move uses two Class-D digital amplifiers to correctly tune the sound to the acoustic environment.
For a premier arrangement, the Sonos Move can be connected to the rest of your Sonos setup for the desired sound experience. Speakers can be easily linked all throughout the house with many options to choose from.
Control in Your Hands:
Controlling your music should be easy, and with Sonos it is. While connected to WiFi, users can conduct their music via the Sonos App, Apple AirPlay 2, and voice control. The Move comes with a far-field microphone to capture all commands, and gives users a quick chime response to acknowledge the request. And with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, users can get even more out of the Sonos Move. Users have the option to check the news, check the weather, ask questions, and more with simple voice commands (all via WiFi), and entirely hands-free. If you prefer the traditional approach to controls, manual buttons are included on top to adjust the volume, switch songs, etc.
From Indoors to Outdoors:
The Sonos Move is safe to play in almost any scenario. It received an IP56 rating for its resistance to humidity, rain, snow, dust, salt spray, UV rays, and intense heat and cold. If you desire some tunes in a snowy backyard or a windy desert, opt for the Move. On top of that, the Move is also drop-resistant, giving you even added protection.
While outdoors, users can connect using Bluetooth. The speaker is battery powered and comes with a charging base for the indoors, and you’re able to continue listening to the speakers while it charges, too.
