Wirelessly Play Music From Iphone To Speakers

Connects with Bluetooth easily to my iPhone to play music too!

Bought these to go in office setting where I will stream from computer but also from iPhone to play along with music.

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!

I purchased these speakers to play music outdoors and they deliver. I particularly wanted a pair of Bluetooth speakers that could be linked and play in stereo and these deliver. I had a bit of trouble the first time I linked them but that was a me issue. I tried to link them via the Bose Music app as I have a couple of Bose headphones and earbuds. That was a miss. Then I read more carefully and found the correct app. Then it was simple. The sound is full and rich despite their small size. Their portability, light weight and water resistance is a plus as well. I do wish they could be controlled with the Bose Music app so I could have all my Bose devices on a single application.

I'm an old throw-back to 1980's music....massive speakers and big hair! The last serious "system" I bought was in 1988 as a teenager. So when my kids informed me there was a better way for an "old guy" to listen to his favorite music, I was skeptical. Vintage metal should be played on equipment from that time.....right? I purchased a single Play 5 and easily downloaded the SONOS app., then learned what Spotify was. WOW! That single modest-looking speaker sounded better than both my tower speakers hauled home in the back of my Trans Am 30 years ago. Deep, powerful.....Loud! I just had to buy a second Play 5 and now I'm air-guitaring to whatever I want to hear with just a tap of my finger. Out with the the old....in with SONOS! Might be time to grow the mullet back....

Best wireless speaker to use with my iPhone and iPad. Excellent sound. Only Con is that I can't play all my purchased music due to licensing and would have to use Apple Music to hear my purchased music...that should be illegal...once I purchased the music, I should be able to play on anything, and that's not Sonos's fault.

Its so nice to have music control wirelessly, whenever I want............just awesome!!!

Easily friendly, best sound, hook up many speakers, play different music in different rooms

My favorite feature on these little speakers is being able to play 3 audio sources at the same time. I use the headphones jack with my TV (movies, Switch, Xbox), RCA jacks with my audio interface connected to my laptop and keyboard, and bluetooth with my iPhone. This feature makes these little speakers really useful (such as being able to play along on my keyboard with music from my iPhone). Also the sound quality and volume will make you grin for such a small speaker. What would make these perfect is if they just got a smidge louder. I grew up playing an upright piano, and these speakers get impressively loud, yet leave something to be desired, especially when playing my keyboard. I find they start to peak right when I get the keyboard to a volume that fills the room. With that said though, these speakers are so much better and louder than any built-in keyboard speakers I've used. Honestly I would have spent twice as much for these speakers.

This speaker was an upgrade from my old Sonos Play 5 speaker. It integrates nicely with my other Sonos speakers and the latest Sonos iPhone Application.
