Customer Ratings & Reviews

Worth the investment. Bought one of these to add to a system that includes several Sonos Ones and a Move. Listening to live music especially is where it stands out. Very crisp detail, excellent clarity and tons of bass.

Speaker is AMAZING! I purchased two of them and paired them for stereo. Setup is so easy and the quality of the sound is so deep and rich. It fills the room with sound, highly recommended these speakers!!

The Sonos 5 is a great sounding speaker, very clear and crisp sound with a balance of bass. While more on the expensive side for sound, the wireless Sonos system is great. All speakers tie together over WiFi with one device, such as a cell phone. Makes the speakers easy to move around the house.

I am grateful to have a SONOS system and appreciate the SONOS 5. It provides a solid sound experience and couples well with the remainder of my system. I wish it were a little less expensive.

Excellent speaker. Good quality, too bad it is so expensive and you still have to plug it in.

Great speaker. Sound quality is impressive. Very comparable to Bose. Only gripe I have is that you can’t use Bluetooth but you can work around it. Only reason I returned was because it didn’t work with what I already had setup. Definitely will re buy once I can afford too.

Sonos provides superior quality in construction, sound and wifi with The Five. Looking forward to connecting the Audio Technica Turntable to the six speakers in The Five with a 3.5 aux connection. We are a Sonos Household!

This speaker was so easy to install and the sound quality is beyond amazing. Definitely worth the money and i am now a sonos customer for life

Great sounding speaker and great wifi speaker setup. Can use with Sonos app or via airplay, both have pros and cons. I end up using airplay from Apple Music so I can control music from my Apple Watch. This is my 2nd Five as part of a larger Sonos ecosystem - great sounding whole house setup.

Very easy install to existing SONOS system. Speaker is being used as a stand alone (not paired) in office. While sound is good, I was expecting a bit more from this. I also have a pair of SONOS 1’s (sound is great) and a stand alone SONOS 3. The Sonos 5 is better than the SONOS 3, but not by a great margin. If the decision is a stand alone 5 vs a pair of 1’s, I would strongly recommend the 1’s.

I consider myself a bit of an audiophile, and I think this speaker is marginally high-fidelity sound. But the speaker makes up for its audio shortcomings by offering technology simply not yet available with other true high-fidelity speakers. I love that you can modify the bass and treble in its EQ setting, as well as use it through airplay 2 (you will need wifi for this). The price is a bit steep, but in line with other brand names. The sonos five DOES NOT offer bluetooth technology.

I buy Sonos whole sound system arc Sonos 300 set and Sonos 5 and woofer too but I recommend ARC SUBWOOFER and 300 good combination but if i connect Sonos 5 with my system it create different sound different effects but if I connect Sonos 300 it’s working good also have more functions than Sonos 5

The Sonos home theater sound system is a great investment. Just buy and have the Geeksquad install it . I enjoy watching live concerts on U Tube. It’s a outstanding sound system that delivers every musical note . Stay home and party !!!

Exceptional quality. Currently using as standalone turntable audio. Will continue to purchase Sonos products.

Great sound, but you really gotta want to be all in with Sonos. I wasn't all in, but since I've bought so much Sonos, now I'm going all in. It's expensive to do. The app is sketchy too - if you just use one device to control the system (I have about 8 speakers), then it's great. But if each member in the family wants to control things at different times, it is a pain in the ......

Bought 2 and set up in stereo mode in our living room. Initial sound ws just ok but I decided they were too close together (maybe 12'). Increased the spacing to about 20' and the sound quality was greatly enhanced. Happy with this purchase!

My firts SONOS spikers, the best of the best! Ill not buy any orher spikers brand from now on! You feel the sounds going through your body and senses!!!

It’s a great sounding speaker & I desperately wanted it to work, but my specific use case for this speaker made it impractical for me to use and I ultimately returned it. I wanted a Sonos speaker with a Line In capability and (wrongly) assumed that the line in would be latency free - like literally every line in I’ve ever used, but that isn’t the way it works on Sonos speakers. Instead, the line in on this speaker is an input that can be used as an input across your existing Sonos ecosystem, but that cool party trick comes with an unavoidable delay. You can tune the delay down to minimize it, but my use case was to use this as a speaker for a digital piano where the key press needs to instantly be reproduced by the speaker - and even with the smallest delay, it felt - and sounded - unnatural. Great sounding speaker if you don’t care about a line in delay and already are bought into the Sonos ecosystem.

Speechless? Floored! Got two and stereo is so dynamic can't put it to words in describing the type of high quality sound that flows in providing such sound. Brings back to loving music even more, like a kid again. I may lose my hearing sooner because of these. Thank You SONOS!!!!

These speakers are spectacular and the delivery was so fast from Best Buy
