Computer Will Not Play Sound Through Speakers

I was amazed at the sound coming out of these very affordable speakers. Plug 'n' Play on my old Win 7 computer. I didn't know the internet could carry such a wide spectrum of sound.

Excellent computer speakers, amazing sound and quality.

Over the course of 40 years I have had the best equipment to play my music and create a home theater medium for my home theater. I've always been frustrated with managing my equipment (amps, pre-amps, turn tables, disc players, wired speakers, etc.) and wires (power wires, speaker wires, network wires, etc.). With the advent of technology, I have been patiently waiting for a wireless system that can deliver superior sound without the constraints of limited bluetooth distance nor the assistance of an additional amp to power the speakers. Finally...finally, I have what I have always wanted! Superior sound delivered over WIFI! What's even better and more impressive is that the SONOS interface uses mesh wifi to create a dedicated network for itself over your existing network so you are never interrupted with lag. Hugely important! Wow, the sound is amazing, the ease of managing the system is very simple, the choices of music is limitless, and the app interface is friendly in a logically user intuitive design. It is a complete well thought out turnkey system. I currently have four Play:5's in three separate rooms and just ordered another Play:5 for the kitchen, a PlayBar for the living room, and a SUB to complete my home theater design. The app interface allows my to play speakers individually or group them together so I can either fill the house with music or let the family play their own thing in their room of choice. My children use the alarm function in their room to wake in the morning for school, my wife creates playlists for everyone, and I happily fill the house with music when I have my own time. If you're thinking of getting the Play:1 or Play:3, you have to listen to the better sound on the Play:5. If budget is an issue, just wait a little longer to save for your purchase because most likely you'll step-up and buy the Play:5 in the future. If you're thinking of getting pair of Play:1's or Play:3's for a room, I find that one Play:5 will do!

Sonos play 5 goes great with my 2 play 1's great superb sound from all 3 speakers

I casually listen to my iTunes collection, Apple Music, and SoundCloud. Play:5 sounds wonderful: full, deep, rich sound, surprising bass, no distortion; Is reliable: music never skips or stalls. I replaced a pair of M-Audio computer speakers. Play:5 sounds better than any computer speakers and bookshelf speakers I have owned. Play:5 in white looks beautiful, especially with white shelving. I bought Play:5 in December 2015 when a 45-day return period was offered. I have no regrets. The only disappointment is in the controller software. Sonos Controller for Mac is like a music player from the early 2000s; Difficult to navigate; Awful for discovery. I wish I could play my iTunes collection from iTunes to Play:5 (without AirPlay). I lose over a decade of metadata gathered from my music habits. But, Play:5 sounds great.

I have a couple of small Bose speakers that I use as Bluetooth to my computer to play music on the go. These lens cases were the exact fit for excellent protection of these speakers. Purchased two, one for each speaker.

I love the Connection input on the Play 5 and while I currently own the earlier Play 5 it is still outstanding. I cannot wait to get my hands on the new Play 5. I love it when a friend comes over and has some music on a phone or other device, I can just plug it in and hear their latest favorite. In my office it also makes a compelling speaker improvement over my computer monitor and speakers. I can check out new iTunes music over a good speaker before downloading. Truly, I would love to see an Aux Input on ALL Sonos Speakers. I could drop a pair of Play 1's on my Desk and feed them from my computer. They would then do double duty as stereo music streaming from the home Sonos system but also handle computer audio needs. Right now I have the Play 5 in my office and have tuned the EQ with my iPad and still love it. Oh yeah, don't forget to enjoy tuning your Sonos speakers EQ with your iPad or iPhone. Hey how about an Android App for tuning!!!

Purchase to go with my Sound Bar. Will add rear channel speakers later

I purchased these speakers for a backyard party. The sound and quality are amazing!! Will definitely purchase again.

love these play 5 speakers, easy set up and sound great
