Some sonos speakers become so hot that the USB-C port founded

If you are selling audio equipment with a Sonos logo on it, you may be feeling a little more warmth than usual. And if you are a person who owner President of Sonos, you can be just as hot, but potentially not in a figurative sense. According to a Bloomberg report, Sonos admitted that a small number of customers who bought its Roam Bluetooth speakers have experienced overheating problems that caused the speaker partially (in particular the USB-C port).

According to Bloomberg, Sonos said that he was closely following these overheating reports, but he has not yet recall. While Sonos minimizes what seems to be a design defect, saying that it only affects a “small number” of speakers, it is difficult to overestimate the possible danger of this particular defect, especially if you take a look at what the results of the question really look like. To see how bad the problem is, I threw a brief overview of the subdredit subdue, and … woof. It is very similar to a risk of fire for me.

According to the Redditor who published this image, their Roam had not been used or touched for months and had started to overheat spontaneously to the point of burning. Fortunately, the Redditor said they were at home when overheating started and felt the subsequent burn. They were able to disconnect the Roam, which was apparently powered by the inclusive cable of Sonos and an “apple brick”, above all major fire. Unfortunately, this is not the only problem on the Sanderdit. Other owners of Roam from a few months ago also reported overheating, which (even if it has not been the subject of a fire) certainly resembles a legitimate risk.

Obviously, these overheating problems are bad, but unfortunately for Sonos and its customers, it’s just another big bump in what was a bit difficult for the company. Last year, Sonos had fairly publicized problems with its application which actually led to product delays. This fallout was so bad that it led to the eviction of its CEO at the time, Patrick Spence. Sonos now has a new CEO in Tom Conrad, who has previously played a leading role in the Pandora musical streaming service, but obviously, this mandate was not left either.

It is difficult to blame Conrad for a problem that feels inherited, but I hope for people who bought Sonos speakers And Sonos (a name formerly renowned in the audio world) that he can correct the course. In the meantime, it may be preferable to unplug your ruming speaker if you have one, no matter how “the problem” can be “Sonos spokesperson.
