Customer Ratings & Reviews

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 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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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 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!

I purchased this amplifier so that I could stream music through our existing speakers that were previously used with an older Sony receiver. I had tried a less expensive device to stream music through those speakers, but the sound quality was terrible, so I upgraded to the Sonos amplifier. It took a little time to set up and program on my phone, but once we got it set up and synced with my phone and Echo Dot, things worked seamlessly. The sound quality is excellent. It is a bit pricy, but I am very pleased with the sound quality and functionality of this amplifier.

I replaced an old Nuvo system with these new Sonos amps. I love that I can stream and control everything via an app om my phone. Loaded with Sonos radio and can add other music apps easily. Very satisfied.

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.

Sonos sound and simplicity never disappoints. My last receiver was a Yamaha, which I loved, but the time had come to retire the Yamaha and install quality 5.1 wireless surround sound. I tried to stick with the latest/newest Yamaha receiver, but I found myself spending too much time getting everything to work just right — too difficult. So I switched to a Sony amp hoping for a much better experience. The Sony had an inferior sound compared to the Yamaha, so finally I decided to spend a little more to connect my current sub and Infinity speakers to a Sonos amp and Sonos surround speakers. Magic. So simple. Only problem is that I couldn’t hook up a center speaker to the amp (you can connect wirelessly, but it’s not the same) but with the quality of sound coming from my Infinity and Sonos surround speakers, I could care less. 4.1 is just right.

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.

Very impressed with the latest sonos amp and how easy it was to setup with hdmi arc, existing speakers, and a powered sub. Originally I was planning on forgoing my ceiling speakers for our front channels and just getting a soundbar bc I didn’t want to deal with yet another remote and setup for a receiver (mainly so my family could use our LG oled with just one remote) The sonos amp solved this dilemma with flying colors - easy control via hdmi arc with the tv, sub-out for a powered sub, and paired it with an earlier generation sonos amp for our surrounds. Only sacrifice was the center channel speaker which candidly is barely noticeable due to the quality of the amp and two front channels. Everything was setup and optimized via sonos app, great sound even without a center, and the ease of use is amazing (no tech support required for the family, everything works with the LG magic remote). These amps have come a long way since their first iteration (I have 3 of those) .

Have used it outside in my patio and it sounds awesome with Sonos outdoor speakers. Just blissful sound,

Love this amp. So simple and so easy. It works just as expected. Full disclosure tho is that this amp is not a full on traditional amplifier receiver & has connection for only 1 pair of wired speakers. Another pair of Sonos wireless can also connect to this amp. It may be. Drawback for some people but for the ease of using different listening zones in and outside the house & the simple, seamless usability I would still buy this amp. To expand you’ll have to buy more of these but then they all work together and you can add or drop speaker sets as you desire. Worth it cuz you’ll love it.

I not only purchased one but two. Most likely I will need one more. They are great the sound in our new home is awesome.
