KUALA LUMPUR, 12 MAY 2022 – Sonos (Nasdaq: SONO) today announced new speakers that expand its home theatre and portable line-ups, offering listeners more ways to easily connect with the content they love. The brand debuted Sonos Ray, a compact soundbar with impressive sound for smaller spaces and as with all Sonos products, the brand’s newest speakers deliver great sound that helps you play more, hear more and feel more, whether at home or on-the-go.
Priced at RM1,799, pre-orders for Ray will be available exclusively on trysonos.my from 14 May onwards. Malaysians will be able to purchase Ray through its official retail partners, Harvey Norman or Lazada Malaysia starting 24 June.
“Homes have become movie theatres, fitness studios, gaming hubs and so much more, all supported by a streaming era that is no longer exclusive to just TV, music and film,” said Patrick Spence, CEO of Sonos. “Ray makes it easier than ever to enhance those listening experiences, thanks to its smaller size, yet impressive sound.
Blockbuster Sound from Sonos Ray
Ray raises the bar for at-home entertainment with new acoustic innovations that deliver balanced sound, crisp dialogue and solid bass.
