    Just like all of the other Sonos products, these are awesome! We replaced 2 unmatched sets that were 18 years old and are extremely pleased with the results. We are running 2 sets on a Sonos Amp and after the proper setup, they sound amazing. Installation is also very simple.

    Nice speakers but pretty over priced Like that they integrate into the rest of bouse sonos system. Overall.the sound outside is a bit distorted and not as immersive as thier indoor systems A bit bigger driver and power would help

    These are great sounding speakers with awsome base. Was surprised somewhat at the quality for outdoor speakers that usually are not as good. I do think they were a bit expensive but the sound helps support the cost. I am running them on a Sonos amp.

    Not bad but not that impressed. Maybe they would sound better with the Sonos connect amp. I used a pro audio amp for the install. I am a Sonos owner and the Play 5 is amazing so I had the same expectations with these.

    Great sound for outside listening. Easy wire and install. Also very versatile and listen from different angles in the room. Well worth the money.

    Both speakers failed within a week after 5 months of use. Sound is good but thought it would be louder.

    I would buy again 100. Some things you should know

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Uve had 2 fives for over a year. This was my first experience with sonos and their wifi system. I will admit the sonos app took a little bit to get used to. It’s much differrent than bluetooth. I didnt have a full appreciation for sonos until i had multiple speakers theoughout my house. Then the true benefits shine and it beats anything else ive looked at. I got used to the app and now my family is listening to sonos theoughout the house on a regular basis. I did run into an issue with sonos in my home wifi. After getting a new router my home network had a 2.5 ghz network abd 5.0 network with the same name. Sonos was randomly losing connection and this is why. Their customer service helped me identify the issue and i learned a lot in the process. I highly recommend hard wiring of uiur speakers to the wifi. It will give you the highest level performance and avoid any wifi issues. Overall i hope my feedback saves some headaches for you in advance. Even with the challenges i love the sonos system and still adding new speakers to enhance. Enjoy!

    good sound, poor quality

    the sound of these speakers is great; however, ours quit working after a short while. We have all the right components, not sure why they died. We had a pair attached to our house under a roof so they were not exposed to the elements as could have been. No response from Sonos.....If you reach out to them I hope you get better customer service. We have several Sonos speakers, moves and now the Roam - between our 5 kids, it's a lot ......pretty disappointed in this company.
