    I completed a fair amount of research on wireless speaker systems before deciding on Sonos. I’m very pleased with Sonos 5 as the anchor for my music system. It delivers room filling rich sound as advertised and the app super easy to install and use. Sonos radio is a real plus too. I will be adding additional speakers to rooms in my home going forward.

    The Sonos Five is awesome. I paired it with two Sonos ones and a sub. Really good bass and very clean music without distortion.

    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!

    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.

    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 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!

    These Sonos 5 speakers are a joy to listen to. You can crank them to impressive sonic levels with minimal distortion and they’re very powerful with a big, satisfying, full range frequency response. The downloadable attending app allows the user to literally adapt the speakers to each unique room acoustical environment. Giles Martin, son of the late George Martin of Beatles fame has created masterful speaker systems and the 5’s are well worth their relatively modest investment. Best Buy expeprts in the back of the store are among the most expert sound pros anywhere.

    Bought this as a test speaker before buying another, and was very pleased. For the size, the bass is deep and smooth. The highs are crisp and clean. Setup was a breeze. I highly recommend the Sonos PLAY5 and I am pretty sure you won't be disappointed.

    Great addition to my sound system. Two of these replaced a huge stack of audio gear and large floor standing monitors. Amazing sound in a smallish package. Integrates wonderfully with airplay.
