    It does what it says on the box! Painless to set up and transparent in operation. Can't ask for more.

    No auto volume leveling, so when sudden loud sounds appear, you'd have to manually adjust the volume. Not worth it. No remote control.

    At $400+ this is not a cheap soundbar yet its performance is no better than a $200 sound bar. The app is cool and it's attractive in white, but the sound quality is at best mediocre.

    I didn’t know this at time of purchase that these Sonos systems don’t come with a remote and you need a app that you only can get on a iphone.
