Customized Sonos Roam speakers can be ordered in quantities ranging from a single set to more than 100, with pricing starting at $249.99. The speaker itself is $180, so the customization process is a $70 surcharge, but cost goes down with a higher number of units ordered.

Nothing says premium like two logos. Although just the MR apple without the name or Sonos branding would be nice.

Yeah the size and color of the MacRumors logo is atrocious. They should have just used the apple, shrunk it down to the Sonos logo size and placed it to the right of it. Whoever does the graphics here really needs to take a design 101 class. It's so consistently bad across the board.

Some fine-grit sandpaper should do the trick!

Not a fan of the logo either but I'll take it for free!

I already have one (along with other Sonos products) and the sound quality and footprint are great. My only complaint is battery life is not that good even with the voice assistants turned off, and I regret not buying a charging pad when I got mine.
 
The giveaway is awesome but the MR logo on the speaker is horrendous! I mean we all know MR is still a nimble startup ? and that hiring someone like Susan Kare is not possible but c'mon, just maybe one of those young undergrads at RISD or Pratt or wherever could help out some with updating the clipart looking logo...:p... also wanted add I love MR so as not to not come off as a hater.

Good god people.... in the context of advertising on freebies,no one puts their logo on something to make it look better, they do it to remind you who gave you the free item you are using.

Don't like the logos, don't enter, better chance for me to win. For all I care the MR logo could be 2x the size.

Sorry, but this is objectively bad design. You can add a logo to a product and still have it look great. See the SONOS logo in the products pictured.

Honestly, it’s not even that bad MR logo, it’s just the Sonos tag not being removed combined with the MR text. You can’t have text presented in two different ways and it still look good. I suspect the Sonos logo leaves holes, and if they donated it then they won’t let it be removed. But, given the promotion is from the company applying the MR logo I think a white HomePod mini with the MR Apple would have been a better promo.

I kind of like it on the site. It’s a cross between the old school MacRumors look and more modern web design. But I don’t want that logo placement on the speaker if you paid me to use it.
 
I'm logged in with my email address. Why do I need to log in again with Instagram, or Twitter or whatever. I don't have most of those accounts.

No thanks. Love MacRumors, but I definitely don't like their logo. In fact I prefer my products with as little branding as possible. This thing looks hideous!
