    Awesome sound quality and such easy to install. Only caveat is that it doesn’t allow Bluetooth

    I did not know SONOS made such wonderful speakers. We paired the FIVE with a MOVE and the results sound amazing in our living room and in our camper. The FIVE delivers smooth bass and mids. The vocals are crisp and clear. We enjoy the FIVE alone, but when paired with the Move, it’s just wonderful.

    EXCELLENT SOND QUALITY, EXCELLENT BUILD, WELL BALANCED AUDIO CLARITY AND BASE. THIS IS MY 2ND SONOS 5 THAT I PAIRED TO GET A STEREO QUALITY AUDIO. ONE IS VERY GOOD BUT HAVING 2 IS EXCELLENT. IT IS AS CLOSED IN GETTING A HIFI SPEAKER SYSTEM FOR A MUCH LESSER PRICE. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    Truly incredible sound. The hardest thing though is figuring out where to put it. I haven't found any good stands and it's definitely too bulky to mount in a small condo. Some times Sonos drops when I play Spotify--really frustrating and random.

    Phenomenal sound and clarity. Perfect sync with other Sonos speakers around the house. Easy to group and un group for various situations around the house. All around great purchase for any audiophile who wants simplicity and flexibility in their home sound setup.

    I picked up one of these after having some Sonos Ones and a Sonos Arc. This speaker puts out SOUND and its very high quality. Sonos products are good their simplicity of use and connectivity. Get this speaker if you've got the budget and want BIG sound it does not disappoint.

    This speaker puts out a quality sound no doubt but when you pair the speakers together all I can say is wow! I have a pair of Fives in my house and the sound covers every square inch. At the highest volume, the speakers still maintain a crisp, I non-distorted sound with a quality bass. I’d recommend without a doubt!

    Great speaker! The Sonos five is the best wireless speaker you can buy, period. The Sonos app gave me things I did not know I wanted like a sleep timer, auto on, and more! You can even control the music from your computer, and not just your phone. If you have more Sonos speakers, you can listen to them all at the same time or turn certain ones on and off in the app. If you have them all playing, you can control each volume individually at the same time! If you have the Sonos Roam too, it will auto turn on when you play your music and auto turn off when you are done. I also have Bose and the Google home max, but the Sonos Five beats them both. Not by much, but it does beat them (sounds better. the bass in the Sonos Five is crazy deep). However, the Sonos app beats them all, hands down!

    This was a replacement item for a high-end bookshelf speaker that had gotten damaged and was not repairable. I am extremely happy with the resolution and clarity of this speaker. The range is also quite impressive. Bravo!

    This was my first Sonos speaker. Lots of features, easy to use app, very much a plug-and-play-and-connect-to-network experience. Integrates with MacBook and iPhone super well. Sound is very good and it fills the room its in.

    Went into the store to buy a good product and walked out with a better product. The associate took the time to share the Sonos experience with us after asking what our goals were in the house. We paired the Sonos arec with two Sonos Five and three Sonos One speakers. Spread throughout the house, it is an immersive sound that hits you in your core. Whether you are listening to rock, rap, country or Frank it hits you. Then you throw in super bowl games and the sound flowing through the house with multiple tvs on but volume down on the set and the Sonos system delivering the experience. You feel like you are at the cinema watching the game. If you can't tell... I am a FAN of the Sonos system. Looking to add more to the patio and basement areas now!

    Got this for a workspace that already had an old Sonos speaker. It did the job, but now they’re both hooked up and they fill the room beautifully. This review isn’t aimed at discerning audiophiles, but it was easy tell the Sonos big boy was a huge upgrade on its own. My staff was delighted with the addition. It took a few minutes to get both speakers to play at the same time as the solution wasn’t perfectly intuitive, so the 4 out of 5 stars for ease-of-use represents that minor glitch rather than the normal daily routine. I respectfully have no complaints with the Sonos ecosystem and its ease of use. Cheers to a great product!

    I have a Sonos system and a more traditional Hi-Fi stereo system. I have to say I hear things in songs that I did not know existed. I am listening to music more on the Sonos than I am on the Rack System. Maybe it is my hearing, but the Sonos is a solid performer and just the right amount of bass.
