Incredibly easy to set up. Affordable. Smooth-sounding midrange and high end.
Bass distorts at maximum volume. Not portable. No wired audio inputs
The Sonos Play:1 is the most affordable, functional wireless multi-room speaker we've seen yet, and Sonos' legacy makes it a breeze to set up....
For existing Sonos users, the PLAY:1 is a no-brainer. Affordable enough to slot easily into an existing zone that needs a little extra oomph, and yet capable enough to keep up the company’s reputation for audiophile-friendly quality, it’s equally at h...

The Sonos Play:1 is a stylish and exceptionally well-made wireless speaker, especially for the price. It offers the full Sonos experience, with support for most key services (including Spotify, Pandora, Rdio) and super-reliable wireless streaming. Sound q
Unlike Bluetooth speakers, the Sonos system can't stream from every app on your phone or tablet -- so there's no support for iTunes Radio, for instance. The lack of a built-in battery limits room-to-room mobility
The Sonos Play:1 finally brings the company's wireless audio magic to the masses, in a fantastically designed compact speaker that's just $199.

Superb sound quality, solid build and great companion apps
Setup could be easier, can't stream to the speaker
A convenient and simple sound solutionI'm sold. I love the Sonos PLAY:1 speaker and will be definitely purchasing one or two soon. The convenience of being able to grab the speaker, plug it in somewhere around your house and instantly choose music from a...
Amazing amount of sound from such a small package; Compact and very well designed; Wired or wireless network connection; Perfect little addition to anyone with a Sonos system already; Deals with humidity well, making it ideal for placement in the bathroom
No battery included in the unit; Requires the Sonos Bridge, which means first time buyers can't just spend the initial price to gain access into the Sonos system;
Sonos speakers have never been cheap, but the Play:1 does lower the entry cost just enough to bring the sound system within reach of people who have always wanted it. If you’re looking for a service that makes your music work for you, this is the one ...

Sonos blows me away again with the PLAY:1 speaker. The elegant and compact design makes PLAY:1 a perfect companion anywhere in the house, PLUS your ears will be pampered by its powerful, high-fidelity sound. The SONOS system is also flexible and gets bet...
Attractive, well constructed design, Excellent sound quality & volume, Ease of use and setup
Requires AC power (no battery), No 3.5mm audio jack, Midrange can become muddy
The PLAY:1 is Sonos' smallest and cheapest speaker yet, and has been designed as an affordable, entry level music streaming device. It packs a significant punch considering its size and produces surprising bass levels, though we would have loved to see a...
Excellent sound, Reasonably affordable, Fits snugly almost anywhere
Quite heavy, Living rooms will want two, Sonos app can feel limiting
Sonos has delivered again with the Play:1. We're hugely impressed with what it offers for its size, but perhaps more importantly, we're impressed with what it offers for the price. Sonos has cooked up a superb quality speaker at a more affordable entry p...
