In 2016, the Los Angeles studio permanently closed its event space to the public. Today, the space operates as a production studio and private showroom.

Overview
The original gallery combined collections of Sonos wireless speakers, art, and technology, but also hosted musicians in certain events where a band or solo artist performed at the location. The admission, as well as other supplies, were free of charge. The building is acoustically tuned and refined to house the products and improve experience within initiation of the exhibit.
