Introducing the latest leak on Sonos’ upcoming flagship soundbar, codenamed ‘Lasso’. This exciting new model, based on the successful Sonos Arc, promises a complete redesign with enhanced speaker drivers for superior performance, including improved bass quality.
What sets this soundbar apart is its support for Bluetooth audio playback – a first for Sonos soundbars. With a dedicated Bluetooth button and continued physical microphone switch, the ‘Lasso’ is set to offer a seamless user experience akin to the popular Era 100 and Era 300 speakers.
Designed to resemble the sleek Arc, this new soundbar will showcase advanced audio transducer technology from Mayht, a company previously acquired by Sonos. Expect smaller and lighter components without compromising on sound quality.
Additionally, the ‘Lasso’ soundbar will be compatible with the new Sonos Ace headphones, creating an ideal setup for enjoying Spatial Audio. While these impressive features come at a premium price point of over $1,200 USD (approximately $1,635 CAD), loyal Sonos enthusiasts will likely find it worth the investment.
As for its release date, sources suggest that the new flagship soundbar is slated to debut and hit shelves later in 2024. Stay tuned for more updates as we eagerly anticipate the arrival of this innovative addition to the Sonos family.
