    Exceptional Product

    This product works and sounds awesome! I moved into a new home with previously installed outdoor speakers and the configuration of the wires wasn’t quite right for me to use my existing setup. Previously, I used a Sonos connect plus a separate amp, which worked fine, but didn’t fit well. Not only was the new setup easy and the space worked, but the sound is even better than the previous system. Highly recommend!

    This is my second Sonos Amp. The first one I bought was an open box item that I bought from Best Buy. I couldn't get the open box one to connect to my home wifi so I returned it for a new one. The new one is awesome. It recognized my home network and set up was completed within 3 minutes on the Sonos app. I bought this to use with my Klipsch outdoor speakers on my deck. At first I thought it was overkill but the sound is tremendous. The Sonos Amp also connects with any music account you have like Pandora, Sirius and Youtube Music. I haven't added my Iturnes library, but that is next. Initially I thought I wanted an affordable blue tooth enabled received to power the speakers but I went with Sonos for a couple reasons. First, blue tooth has limited range. I am able to connect to the Sonos amp via my phone and walk around my yard (about a half acre) and never lose connection. Also, music can play while I take a phone call on my phone. I also looked into a more expensive receiver with wifi but in my research I learned the speakers wouldn't be optimized as the more expensive receivers are configured for surround systems. Also, the second zone on a multizone receiver doesn't play digital music so then you need to get into a bunch of digital to analog connectors (I went down this road before and it worked, but wasn't optimal). This Sonos Amp solved all my issues. I recommend it highly.

    We had Magnolia install our sound system. We love the APP. It is great to be able to stream music using a pretty easy to use APP. We are listening to music much more now that the sound is awesome and it is easy to play. We'd highly recommend Sonos products. They are not inexpensive, but they produce high quality sound and are easy to use.

    Great Sound, Teenage Torture Device Capabilities

    I have three of these Sonos Amps, one for each level of my house, and they deliver excellent sound quality throughout. The multi-room setup works seamlessly and the audio is crisp and powerful. Perfect for creating that whole-house music experience I wanted. However, I didn't anticipate that my teenage daughters would weaponize this system to subject me to Taylor Swift at maximum volume from multiple floors simultaneously. Apparently "Shake It Off" sounds the same whether it's coming from the basement, main floor, or upstairs - just louder and more inescapable. The real issue? At $700 each, I'm questioning my life choices. Yes, the sound quality is great, but honestly, Alexa devices deliver surprisingly similar results for a fraction of the cost. The difference in audio quality exists, but it's not $2,100 worth of difference for my setup

    The amp is well built. The sound, at least to me, was clean and not distorted. The amp had no problem providing adequate power with connected Sony Core bookshelf speakers. For me, and the reason I returned, was that I prefer a dedicated center channel in a theater home setup rather than a phantom center. I would overall recommend if you don't mind no dedicated center channel output.

    The amps work great with my whole home sound system. They stay consistently connected to my home network. I had them installed by the Geek Squad so I can’t comment on ease of installation but they have been easy to use since. The mobile Sonos app is often slow to load.

    I recently purchased the Sonos Amp 250W amplifier as well as the Sonance 4 Pair Stereo Speaker Selector. I am extremely satisfied with the purchases. They both work remarkably. The set up was very easy and the sound and functionality is amazing. Thank you Best Buy and Bryan M. for the great recommendation of this system.

    Huge upgrades over previous model. Upgraded from the previous Connect:Amp that I'm using with a pair of in-ceiling speakers. Not only more power per channel, but the addition of Airplay 2 is great. Price is a little high, but I picked it up when it was on sale. Like all SONOS hardware, easy setup and configuration - out of the box and working in 5 mins.

    One of the best purchases I made in 2020. Sonos is a great system that integrates very well with my music selections and my TV/video system. This amp easily powers my Beam, Remote Speakers through-out the house, and my portable Move Speaker that I use on my back deck. It is a bit expensive, but I highly recommend this product!!!

    This is a top notch amp. I do wish it had more inputs so that you could use multiple sources such as an additional equalizer or tape deck.

    Difficult to set up for the average person. Sonos app is not intuitive. Lacks enough bass without adding bass unit. Using Sonos app to stream music works better that using other streaming services. Blue tooth portable speaker doesn’t switch between wi-fi & blue tooth without losing wi-fi setup. System has too many technical challenges. Sound bar & second speaker work great.

    I know the price of a Sonos system is enough to scare many away, but the ease and flexibility of use, especially with the Sonos app that allows for steaming music is incredible. The system produces incredible sound. We needed the amp because we wanted to add some wired speakers in to the Sonos sound system. Added them seamlessly.
