  • The best solution for home audio. Simple set up and expansion, great audio quality, and ROCK SOLID.
Let me join the chorus of positive reviews here. I had previously suffered with various Bluetooth and AirPlay speaker systems. They were all unreliable, and frequently dropped the signal. Pairing the devices was also a hit or miss affair, and the sound quality was dubious. Enter Sonos. Lots of people at work have been raving about Sonos, so I finally took (a modest) plunge into their ecosystem. I bought the Bridge (even though I technically didn't need to for my initial system) but I wanted it for future expansion capability. I also bought the lowest-priced Play 1. The Play 1 is HEAVY, and very nicely designed. It has a relatively small footprint and seems very at home in our modernist living room. The hardware setup was very easy. Comprehensive QuickStart instructions were well illustrated and clear. It was mostly about the sequence of plugging in cables. One VERY nice touch is the additional pass-through Ethernet port on the Bridge. I had run out of ports on my two routers, and needed on for my new NAS (that I was setting up as a media streamer.) Plugged it straight into the Bridge and it works flawlessly on my network. I then downloaded the Sonos app from the App Store, launched it, and followed very simple on-screen instructions. The instructions included clear illustrations showing which buttons to press on which devices to complete the pairing, and what the illuminated light sequences on those devices meant. Within a few minutes, everything was connected and working. I added my Spotify and Pandora accounts quickly, and within a few minutes I was streaming music to the Play 1. My expectations for sound quality were a little tempered by the fact that I had the smallest Sonos speaker, and it was in mono. But I was not at all disappointed when I started playing music from my Spotify playlists. I have Spotify set up to stream higher quality bit rates. This probably helps. The sound can be turned up VERY loud. We have it in a living room which is easily filled with rich, separated highs and lows. I do notice on some tracks, however, the bass end can get a little muddy, but only on certain songs (Beyone's Halo, for example, is one of those.) This might be a factor of the mono sound, as sometimes tracks are not mixed and engineered that well for mono; they rely on a greater stereo spectrum for better listening. The beauty of being able to expand this system to other speakers and rooms, and the fact this is operating on a rock-solid wi-fi network, only adds to appeal of the Sonos system. I was so impressed by it all, that I immediately ordered a second Play 1 to add to the first so that I could set up stereo sound (it hasn't arrived yet.) Again, this seems easy to do (based on reading a thorough explanation on the Sonos Web site.) It's just a matter of a few clicks in the App, and pressing one button on the speakers to indicate which is left and which is right. By the way, the Sonos support Web site is superb - clear and helpful instructions and troubleshooting. One additional thing I love is having every Mac / iOS device in the house loaded with the Sonos App, each of which can control the system. That includes four iPads, four MacBooks, two iPhones, and an iPod touch. All the apps control the system flawlessly. You can pickup the currently playing track if you move from one device to another. Spotify integration is OK, but not great. Your playlists are visible, and you can search for any track in Spotify via the Sonos app (and make it a favorite in Sonos, or add it to a Spotify playlist), but it does not show all the artists and albums that you have stored to "My Music" within Spotify. My answer has been to create separate playlists for each member of our family. I am in the process of setting up a NAS server with around 60GB of music. Giving Sonos access to it was as easy as entering the (fixed) IP address of the server and the music share volume. It found it immediately. My server is a Synology 1-bay drive. I have just finished copying all the music to it, the Sonos system can see, but I am waiting for the Synology system to finish indexing all the files before I call them up on the Sonos system. I don't expect any problems, but if there are any, I will update my review. Altogether I am extremely pleased with the system, and am looking forward to expanding it throughout our home in the future. I recommend abandoning sketchy Bluetooth and Airplay speaker systems, and go for the best; especially as the entry level Sonos system is now highly competitive price wise. ... show more

  • Expensive but worth every penny and more.
If you're reading this review, you're probably where I was a few months ago. I had two burning questions in my mind: (1) how good is the SONOS system (is it worth it?), (2) which speakers should I get (what does my initial/total investment need to be)? SHORT ANSWER: IT IS WORTH IT. As to the first question: it is fantastic. Yes, it is expensive. But there's absolutely no doubt that SONOS delivers exactly what it promises. You can play music wirelessly anywhere that your wireless reaches. It just works. It took about two minutes to set up and it was incredibly easy. (See below) A PAIR OF PLAY-1s SOUND FAN-F-ING-TASTIC Two Play 1s, in stereo sound great. (Turn loudness off, set treble up to 70-80%.) I stressed this so hard. Initially I thought, man, can I even get two Play 3s or do I have to get two Play 5s? Play 1 did not enter my initial considerations at all. I read too much from serious audiophile folks. So here's what I did: I bought two Play 1s and 1 Play 5. After listening for about ten minutes, I returned the Play 5. The Play 5 sounds fantastic, don't get me wrong. But unless you have a big space to fill, two Play 5s would just be overkill. Meanwhile, the two Play 1s in stereo arguably outclass the Play 5 for the same price. (You'll see debate on this point on the SONOS forums.) If you want to get started, a single Play 1 still sounds better than almost any bluetooth speaker you care to mention. So your initial investment can be simply a single Play 1 and a bridge. You will be hooked, I'm afraid. I now have four play 1s and a PlayBar. (A separate review may follow for the Playbar or be amended to this--suffice it say for now that my only complaint is that it would be nice to be able to set separate volume levels for tv and music playback, otherwise it works amazingly well. I do not use a sub and don't think it is necessary, though I may add it at some point when the pocket book allows.) APPLE HARDWARE, MICROSOFT SOFTWARE SONOS is all Apple on the hardware end and all Microsoft on the software side. If you're the literary sort, you could say that the hardware is the fox and the software is the hedgehog--the fox knows many things but the hardware knows one big thing. The speakers are elegant looking and everything just works. On the flipside, tech geeks will point out that you pay a style and performance premium. Yes, there are other solutions that are cheaper and I'm sure deliver better sound. And much harder to set up, much buggier, and more frustrating. On the software side, things are not quite as elegant. Are the software guys the big dummies or Achilles' heel of the SONOS operation? No. The software actually has amazing challenges and does some amazing stuff. It's just ugly. The SONOS software integrates every conceivable music source. SONOS supports Amazon Music (formerly Amazon Cloud Player), Spotify, Pandora, Rdio, Rhapsody, pretty much anything you can think of, including, now, Google Play. Better: it allows you to create playlists from multiple sources.So, I can pull tracks from Amazon Music, Google Play, my iphone, any networked drive, and have it all play together. Great stuff. SONOS also has sleep and alarm/wake functionality and a few other little bells and whistles. The problem is that by stuffing so much stuff under the hood and trying to be jack of all trades, the SONOS controller is almost unavoidably clunky. SONOS recently updated the software controller, preserving all the functionality, but attempting to streamline and make the controller less ugly. It didn't really work. It's a little annoying, but still works fine. I hope further updates will be coming because intuitiveness has taken a step backwards, unfortunately. INTERFACE AND OPTIONS Would be nice if you could set volume levels and other specs for each music source. For instance, Sirius plays at a level lower than Amazon Cloud Player. SETUP Initial problems trying to use one component but once I connected bridge the setup took 30 seconds. It was not obvious to me from instructions that you need to press BOTH volume + and play/pause together, either. CONCLUSION You will not regret this purchase. My wife thought I was nuts to spend all this money, but she now agrees that the SONOS system is the most life changing and awesome piece of tech we own. Highly recommended. (I usually don't make this plea, but: please vote helpful if you found this helpful. And if you're an audiophile who is thinks Sonos is not up to snuff, keep in mind this review is aimed at ordinary folks and don't downvote me on that basis, please. THANKS!) ... show more
