    We upgraded from a Sonos Connect Amp that was almost a decade old. I was shook by the power this little amp pushes. Our outdoor speakers have never sounded better! The only problem is our neighbors have to put up with concert quality music all summer :)

    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!

    Sonos is the Mac of audio systems. Love it or hate it, it simply works. I’m an admitted snob when it comes to audio. Years ago I might have called myself a true audiophile and admittedly had way too much money invested in boutique equipment. These days life moves too fast and it’s nice just just hit play and receive instant audio gratification. I drive a pair of vintage Bose 8.2 (all you Bose haters can stop before you even start…we’re not not talking Acoustic-Junk. If you’ve never heard the older Bose speakers you’re completely unqualified to comment) floor standing speakers with this amp along with an SVS Pro 12” sealed sub and it’s amazing. I have wireless Sonos speakers throughout the rest of the house and an older Sonos Connect Amp driving a pair of Wharfedale’s in another listening room. Sonos isn’t the least expensive system but whole house, excellent quality sound at a reasonable price is priceless.

    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.

    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.

    I installed the Sonos Amp outdoors to power my speakers, and the sound is absolutely fantastic, clear, rich, and powerful in open spaces. Perfect for backyard music or entertaining. Worth every penny!

    You can go wrong with these amps. A have a couple of them in order to section different rooms in my house. Best thing is that they are stackable. No heat problems or streaming feed. I deciden to connect them via LAN in order to downsize the wifi devices. Best thing is that they create their on wifi in order to talk to other sonos speakers.

    Sonos Amp set-up was very simple. Initially I had a popping noise coming from one of my rear surround sound speakers. Found there was a faulty terminal on the amp. Took back to Best Buy, got a new amp and installed same way as the original, popping no longer there. Adding the amp to hook up surround sound ceiling speakers was a great choice. Paired with the Sonos Arc, my system sounds great and movie nights are amazing!

    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.

    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.

    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!!!

    Great option for a space not suited for a soundbar

    I bought this to drive two passive front floor speakers in order to replace a Sonos Arc Soundbar that under-performed due to 20+ foot ceilings in my great room. The Arc Soundbar was also driving two Sonos Era300 surrounds and a Gen 3 sub to deliver my 5.1 set up. Unfortunately, the Sonos Amp does not support the Era300 surrounds, leaving me with a very expensive 2.1 set up with the Era300's simply being additional front speakers positioned where surrounds would normally be. This was a HUGE surprise to the store designer and the store install team, not to mention me, since the Era300's are not cheap. Best Buy management did the right thing and swapped out my Era300's for Era100's which DO connect as surrounds to the Sonos Amp, so I'm back to my 5.1 set up. THANK YOU BEST BUY for doing this!

    Very smart device. I have 4 wire ceiling speakers, a sub, and 3 sound bars connected this amp. I can play them all at one time or individually if I chose and operate it all from my smart device. Pretty cool.
