Customer Ratings & Reviews

By far the most simple out of the box product I have used. the sound is amazing, and the quick changes between sources is amazing.

I picked up three Sonos Amp 250W 2.1-Ch Amplifier - Black units to power audio across different zones in my home, and the experience has been nothing short of incredible. Each area now has its own immersive sound, but everything still feels connected when I want that full-house vibe. The power and clarity are top-tier. Whether it’s low music in the kitchen, something smooth in the living room, or a more energetic setup in another space, the transitions are seamless and the sound stays crisp at any volume. Setup was straightforward, and the ability to control everything through the app makes it easy to switch moods on the fly. This setup completely elevated the atmosphere in my home. Highly recommend if you’re trying to create a clean, multi-zone audio experience that just works.

Works great, have 5 of these for different in ceiling built in speaker zones and outdoor zones. Super easy to use and plenty of power when I want it.

I bought this to power a set of Bose 251 outdoor speaker. The Polk Omni A1 I was using just didn't have enough power or the right connectivity I wanted. I tried a couple other option to try to save money and finally bought the Sonos Amp. I should have started by buying this amp and saved myself a lot of heartache.

I wanted to get started in the Sonos family, but in particular needed a way to drive existing wired, installed speakers. This allows driving up to 3 pairs of wired speakers. Sonos is great as you can control from an app and link every imaginable streaming service into a single UI. Awesome. And now I can add more wireless Sonos speakers, and all will be in sync. One thing to note, this amplifier does not have zones. Thus, if you hook up three pairs of speakers, it's all or none... unless you have a separate switch.

I have had this installed now for about a week. It was very easy to setup and I love the small footprint this amp has. I was a little concerned about it being under powered (especially for the price), but figured if it didn't work out I could always take it back and keep looking. But, I was pleasantly surprised at the sound this little guy delivers. It makes a great addition to the my Sonos audio family and I highly recommend getting it if it's on your short list.

We have used the Sonos suite for a while, including the Beam, Play, and Sub speakers. Moving to a new hosue presented us with in-ceiling kitchen speakers, as well as wall-mount patio speakers. We opted to smartify them by using this Sonos Amp. It works very well and the user experience is comparable to all of our other Sonos products. The setup was fairly quick, though having to enter a PIN in addition to pressing the pair button is frustrating. Especially, given that ours is wall mounted behind other equipment. We configured the unit for dual-mono mode as that was ideal for serving 2 rooms off 1 amp. Although im unsure of the speakers (brand/model) we have, it all sounds great! When compared to other options, this Sonos Amp is a bit pricey. However, given the sound quality, sleekness, and integration with our other Sonos products, we would buy it again.

Small very powerful. Hides nicely behind the TV. Replacing another amp.

Soo easy to set up it makes a novice feel like a professional installer.. The app is great it makes everything very easy to use I have 4 speakers controlled by each amp and it powers them all fine.. With two or more amps u can also control different rooms to play different music and the level of sound in each room is adjustable.. a little pricy but worth it if you just want something quick to set up that will function as it’s supposed to.

My outdoor audio system consists of the Sonos amp, Sonos Port media streamer, Sonance SGS 8.1 amp and speaker system, 50" Insignia TV, Sonos Beam Gen 2 soundbar, and a pair of Polk Audio Atrium 8 SDI speakers. I split my system into three zones (pool area, patio speakers, patio TV/soundbar) where I can stream music or TV audio to just one zone, two zones, or all three zones simultaneously, giving me evenly distributed sound throughout my entire 6700+ square foot backyard. The Sonos app is fairly easy to use for setting up multiple zones, selecting your streaming services and controlling the volume within each of the various zones. The Sonos amp is an amazing product and I am extremely thrilled with my purchase.

I bought a new TV with Arc-HDMI for audio. My current set up includes wired speakers and a sub powered by an older receiver without Arc technology. The Sonos Amp allowed be to keep my current speaker set up while modernizing the who system. The speakers sound great and I can now stream music through these speakers via the Sonos app. A total win!

Wow! Great product - Can drive some pretty power hungry speakers with relative ease and not getting too hot even at high volume levels. This was not the case with previous generation Sonos Amp. Easy to use with well made banana jack inputs - only wish the built in DAC were a little better (although I'm not sure it would be noticeable to my ears).

I can't believe I was actually still buying CDs and using an old school stereo system. I bought this Sonos Amp because I heard good things and was already subscribed to Spotify Premium. I figured why keep buying CDs when I could stream pretty any music I want without having CDs delivered to my door. The sound quality is actually very good. I connected the amp to my brand new Klipsch R-820F floor standing speakers and matching Klipsch subwoofer and couldn't be happier. Sonos has a true winner here. Set up was as easy as it could possibly be. I even subscribed to Sonos Radio HD and I and others in my household enjoy it as well. It's great for parties. I hope to add on more Sonos products in other rooms as soon as I can. Well done. Thanks Best Buy for having it in stock and shipped to me quickly.

I don’t give any product my five stars so when I put in a four star rating it’s because of some specific criteria. I paired theSonos amp with a vinyl playing phonograph (old fashioned record player) and was amazed at how easy it is to set up and get operational! Great power great looking in my music room too!

If you’re looking for a versatile, high-performance amplifier that perfectly blends modern design, power, and smart connectivity, the Sonos Amp 250W 2.1-Ch Amplifier is a top-tier choice. This device isn’t just an amplifier — it’s a complete audio hub that can power your traditional speakers while seamlessly integrating into your wireless Sonos ecosystem.

amazing & practical solution to old sound systems, good enough sound, mesh capable, tv sound solution even wthout a sound bar.

Had this unit installed to power existing built in speakers in our home. Very happy with the sound the unit puts out through these speakers. Also like the convenience of being able to control the music and volume through the app on my phone. Only negative comment is it is quite expensive.

I have 5 of these and I can tell you the power ease of use and simplicity of them are amazing! Highly recommend!

Sonos systems ROCK! Easy to install yourself too! We don’t live close to city limits- anyone can install if they can read. :)

I purchased the Sonos amp to replace a cheap stereo receiver. I love the functionality of this amp. I just use the app to play music through the amp, no more pairing a receiver and having to search music on another app. It's just so easy to use and it has plenty of power. It's very easy to set up too.
