That’s not the cheapest the Ray has been since it was released – price tracking shows it was £235 not too long ago – but after jumping back up to the £260 range it’s now fallen back below the £250 mark.

The Sonos Ray is a compact soundbar that’s best suited for those who have TVs that don’t have a HDMI connection (the Ray only has a digital optical output). It’s primed for older TVs or smaller models that people use in their bedrooms.
The Sonos Ray has had a secret Black Friday discount, reducing it to £249 It doesn’t support Atmos like the Beam and Arc models, supporting 5.1 audio instead. For its principal reason of improving sound quality of a TV, it absolutely achieves its objective with clean and powerful sounding audio, a surprisingly wide soundstage for a bar of its size and an even more surprising amount of bass. It’s more straightforward to use that its more expensive siblings but still packs the same level of features seen in other Sonos products. That includes Trueplay, which calibrates the output of the Ray to fit its surroundings, Dolby and DTS audio support, and the Sonos S2 app. Add a pair of One SL speakers and you can create a home cinema set-up, and with the newly introduced Sub mini there’s the option of creating a fully fledged 5.1 home cinema system to enjoy TV and films with. For those with older TVs that are in need of an audio boost then the Sonos Ray is a great upgrade.
