Customers are saying

Customers regard the Sonos Play:1 Wireless Smart Speaker highly for its exceptional sound quality, user-friendly setup process, and wireless connectivity. The compact size of the speaker makes it suitable for smaller spaces, and the multi-room feature allows for a synchronized sound experience throughout the house. However, some users have expressed concerns about its relatively high price point, limited compatibility with certain devices, and the need for improved bass performance.

    I own quite a few Sonos speakers and I think the Play 1s are the star of the show. They're small an well built and the price is great for the quality you get. The sound from such a small speaker is amazing. I think it sounds better than the larger and more expensive Play:3. The Play:5 sounds the best but it is the most expensive and the largest. The Sonos set up could not be easier, the software is great and is updated frequently while at the same time the speakers aren't physically updated, so you don't have to run out every year and upgrade to the newest hardware because they support it continually.

    This speaker will make our collection complete. Each room of our home has at least 1 Sonos speaker in it (including the master and guest bathroom). The Sonos speakers offer great sound, nice aesthetics and terrific connectivity with all of our favorite streaming / in-home music content. Don’t hesitate to buy one. Be frustrated that you didn’t get them sooner.

    We bought Sonos system. Sound bar, subwoofer. And Play1 speakers for new home in Palm Springs that had been pre wired but wanted best wireless technology and controlling everything from phone or IPad is very easy. And very easy to set up. The sound quality , ease of pairing and set up is well worth the price!!! You can play different music in different rooms!!!

    Great sound quality through out any room. I have 3 pairs of the Play 1's, 1 pair of the Play 5's and a set of Play 3's hooked up to my SONOS Sound Bar and Sonos Subwoofer for surround sound. I have them set up all over a 3200 sq ft house and patio. Like I said I have zero problems with overall sound quality and clarity. Best speakers on the market of their kind. Best thing is you can add as many as you need for the space you have in your house or office.

    Sonos just makes great quality speakers. The app makes setup and use a breeze, along with the wireless feature (Besides power) they can go anywhere and do anything! 1 speaker packs a punch, but group them together and you'll be blown away.

    I love my sono system and adding two of the single speakers to my upstairs bedrooms makes it complete. Adding the speakers were a little different than the original where you walk around the room giving you iPhone connection the full range of the room. I also added one to the garage because I like listening to the TV or Music out there. If you’re thinking to do away with the wires and other complications of a full range system just make the investment each piece at a time. ❤️❤️❤️

    Added an additional Sonos speaker to my system to cover the patio outdoor area. Works very well and worth every penny. All you need is an electrical outlet. Use with Linksys WRT 1900 AC router for best coverage of Wi-Fi outdoors. Highly recommend this wireless sound system even if it is a little bit pricey. But you get what you pay for.

    My 29-year old Millennial son turned me on to my first Sonos device - a Play:3 Speaker - in the early summer of 2017. In less than a month, I had to have more and purchased a Play:1 Speaker. Now, my wife refers to me as an overgrown teenager as I gleefully blast a wide variety of my Pandora music streams throughout our 4,300 sq ft home. The simplicity of installing my Sonos Play:1 Speaker almost equals the audio quality coming from this little music maker. If you've never heard a Sonos demo at Best Buy you should do so. Make music an even bigger part of your home life.

    I waited almost two years to purchase a Sonos surround system. I purchased the sound bar, sub and two Play 1 speakers to replace a Vizio system. WOW by far the finest surround sound system I've ever heard and owned. Tons of features and settings through the Sonos app can make these speakers blend in and act subtle or Sing loudly as stand alone speakers. I frequently play music through my Sonos and these fill my room with balance and purity.

    I would have given this product 5 stars if it had 2 additional things. It is not blutooth, and not rechargeable. It is pretty much permanent and must be plugged in at all times. It works with your home's wifi and can only stream music, therefore if you want to stream anything else you will still need a device that can do that. Having said that the sound is great, but a speaker that cost this much should provide excellent sound. I mounted this permanently in my bathroom so I can listen to music from my phone in the mornings.

    Once we got our sonos system connected to our vintage 1960's speakers, our home was transformed. The audio quality is fantastic and the ease of use of the app interface insures that we have an infinite variety of music, radio, and podcasts at our fingertips. I couldn't imagine living without our Sonos!

    Sonos delivers more than I expected. Great wifi connectivity and superior sound. No dropouts either! No distortion and theses Sonos Play 1 speakers are so good I bought another and set them up as a stereo pair. Simple and powerful. Can't go wrong with Sonos. Well worth the money. I would consider this speaker a bargain.
