Sonos is teasing, both in emails and on social media<\/a>, that its \u201cmost requested product ever\u201d is \u201ccoming soon\u201d on May 21st (this Tuesday). This, of course, is almost certainly the Sonos Ace, its first wireless headphones. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n Sonos has been expected to launch the Ace in June<\/a>, but given the company\u2019s \u201cmost requested\u201d phrasing here and the fact that the headphones recently appeared for sale by authorized dealer Schuurman<\/a>, it seems they\u2019re coming sooner than that. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n A launch this week could help Sonos with some of the ire surrounding the roll-out of its new app<\/a> earlier this month. The app was ostensibly created in part to support the Sonos Ace, but is missing key features<\/a> like a sleep timer or those related to local library management. And getting those features back in the app may take months<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n The Roam and Ace aside, there\u2019s not much else that the company is likely to announce this week. Rumor has it that Sonos is preparing to release a TV streaming device<\/a>, but not until late this year at the earliest. Same goes for its rumored Sonos Arc soundbar. And chances seem pretty that its \u201cmost requested product ever\u201d is the next Sonos Sub or the business-oriented Era 100. The headphones make the most sense and would kick off the first of four new product categories<\/a> the company is supposed to be stepping into.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
