Portable Smart Speaker
£159
”The Sonos multi-room system remains the best all-rounder.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2022 Product of the Year.
Simply Roam
The Sonos Roam SL takes the top quality sound and style from the standard version but loses the microphones and voice operation, for a top value and versatile Sonos portable speaker. Ideal for where you don’t need or want voice control, such as when using two Roams in stereo, the Roam SL continues to be a premium portable speaker.
Still the smarter portable speaker
With the Sonos Roam SL, you get to take the sound of Sonos wherever you go. Compatible with wi-fi, Bluetooth and Apple AirPlay 2, this portable speaker works your way. Thanks to its waterproof durability and 10-hour battery life, it’s set for any adventure.
Connect your way – Bluetooth and wi-fi
Thanks to wi-fi connectivity, you get to enjoy the unmatched Sonos experience at home. When you’re out and about switch to Bluetooth for a direct link to your smartphone or tablet. Roam SL automatically connects to your home network and pairs with your smartphone/tablet, making switching between them totally seamless.
Apple AirPlay 2 for seamless streaming from your Apple device
Featuring AirPlay 2, you can stream directly from your Apple devices or ask Siri to play your favourites from Apple Music throughout your home. (Requires wi-fi for AirPlay operation).
10 hours battery life
With up to 10 hours of battery life, the Roam SL has you covered for everything from a day in the garden to an all-night party. To save power, the Roam SL switches to sleep mode when not in use and wakes in less than a second.
Wireless charging option
Compatible with wireless Qi chargers, it’s easy to keep the Roam SL’s battery topped up. For an even neater solution, Sonos’s optional Roam SL Charging Base (sold separately) magnetically snaps to the base.
Class-leading Sonos sound
If you’ve already got Sonos equipment you already know just how good they sound. If you haven’t, then you’re in for a treat. Smooth, spacious and well-balanced, Sonos sounds just as good whether you’re listening to drum n’ bass, rock and pop or full-scale symphonic Classical music.
Tough and durable – IP67 rated
IP67 rating means that the Roam SL is waterproof up to a metre, for 30 minutes. This makes it brilliant on the beach, at a pool party or for just singing in the rain. The drop-resistant construction is perfect for life on the move.
Pair for stereo sound
Just like other Sonos models, the Sonos Roam SL can be paired up for stereo sound. Link two* using the Sonos app and you’ve instant, immersive stereo sound. *Note, pairing only works via wi-fi and so requires being within range of a wi-fi hub.
Enjoy the best ever value Sonos sound on the move, with the Sonos Roam SL.
Once you’ve unboxed Roam SL, you can start charging using the included USB-C cable and a 7.5W (5V/1.5A) or higher USB power adapter. To set up Roam SL and connect it to your system, just open the Sonos S2 app while on wi-fi and follow the prompts. When you’re ready to stream over Bluetooth, pair Roam SL with your mobile device by holding the power button until you hear the second chime.

Great sound
Feels solid bit of kit, for the size the sound has real depth and warmth. Had a couple of bluetooth speakers before and for the price this is my favourite. Great to slip in backpack when travelling

A small speaker...... a BIG difference in sound.
Recommended by a friend , who is a professional in the broadcasting industry, for it's quality of sound. He wasn't wrong. It looks good, yes ... its easy to use, yes .... but one buys any speaker for sound quality and the Sonos Roam simply delivers.
