Pros, Lovely Sonos design, Budget by Sonos' standards, Straightforward to set up
Cons, Patchy Bluetooth remote support, No HDMI support, Maybe you want a Beam
The Ray emits some pretty beefy sound, and while detail naturally isn't as good as Sonos's more expensive efforts this is a very good compact soundbar. But the sheer choice on offer at this price point means the only real reason to opt for this bar is if...

Neat and compact,Coherent, unified sound,Sonos system compatibility,
No HDMI input, Plenty of competition, Slightly small-scale presentation,
