Use a third-party subwoofer with Amp or Connect:Amp

Sonos Amp and Connect:Amp each have an RCA subwoofer output for connecting a third-party subwoofer. The Amp’s subwoofer output has an adjustable 50-110Hz crossover range. The Connect:Amp’s subwoofer output has a crossover of 80Hz and is not adjustable.
