Summary

  • Sonos has confirmed that its eight-year collaboration with Ikea on the Symfonisk range of smart home speakers has drawn to a close, with its inventory being phased out globally.
  • Symfonisk speakers offered a lower-priced entry point to the Sonos ecosystem and also included home decor-friendly designs such as a lamp and picture frame.
  • However, the companies won’t be making any further products and existing models will continue to receive software support.
  • The news comes as Sonos is set to report its latest quarterly results on Wednesday, which is expected to reveal the impact of US tariffs on its business.
  • Sonos recently cut the price of two of its speakers in a bid to boost demand but has so far kept prices at their pre-tariff levels.
