What’s Sonos Doing With Light?

sonos-light

For several hours this weekend, the Sonos website featured an unexpected “Light-1” menu option. Combing through the FCC and USPTO, along with the requisite, tho cursory, Googling, has turned up squat. Is this nothing more than a textual error? Or is Sonos getting into the lightspeaker game? Another possibility, assuming this is something more than a coding mistake, could be programmatic light+music synchronization as seen from the likes of SyFy and Philips Hue. We love a good mystery almost as much as we love Sonos whole home audio.

Meanwhile, the Sonos Boost streaming enhancer must near release given a large number of live support documents and updated product imagery, while the Sonos Playbase remains shrouded in mystery.

  1. “By way of Reddit, a bunch of Play:1s on display… that light up in a variety of colors.”

    Enough of your unfounded speculations merely based on YouTube videos showing the thing in question, Dave.

    In reality, this is obviously a new initiative to transmit sound through the air by bending light waves through a long series of Fresnel lenses. The menu item is obviously for custom tilting of the Fresnel lenses to adjust bass and treble. Study up on your physics, fergawdsakes.
