The Sonos Playbar is a compact speaker system that connects to your TV via optical cable and has the ability to play whatever source the TV is playing, you can also stream music from your smart device or direct from the internet using the Sonos Controller App and your WiFi. Pair the Playbar with 2 Sonos Play 1's and a Sonos Sub to create a full 5.1 Wireless Surround Sound System that will amaze. Sound quality is what you would expect from a system in this price range, and you don't need a engineering degree to set it up.

Great rich sound. I wish it would be a more seemless integration with my TV and remote volume buttons. A little pricey. If I could afford it I wouldn't of got it. Also, I only use it as a sound bar.

Sonos took the top spot in my opinion largley to this bad boy right here. Reviews online don't do it justice, it's something you have to hear in person to believe. The power that this speaker bar is the strongest out of any Sony, Bose, or Samsung I ever heard. Definitely will make you wake the neighbors up when paired with the new Sonos Sonos subwoofer that retails for the same price. But if your a baller and got cash to burn, this is the way to go. It does not get better then this soundbar especially if paired with the sub and 2 additional Sonos SL speakers. All those combine will create flawless sound.
Looks beautiful with or without the mount.

Provides great room-filling sound. Tried it out in store and at a friends house who has the complete 5.1 set up. Compared side-by-side with Bose 300 soundbar and this had more crisp sound in my opinion. Plus the Sonos app integrates other Sonos speakers well.
Will slowly start purchasing additional speakers/sub to complete the system.
-Able to control with Alexa
-Syncs with Spotify and other music services
-Easy setup
- Can sit on table or mount to wall
Cons:
No physical remote, but works with iOS and Android with Sonos app, also with Alexa
Mount needs to be purchased separately
Wires are slightly visible below when mounted to wall given location/angle the wires exit the system.
Overall, highly recommend. Will probably be adding subwoofer and Play1 speakers next

I shopped around for many sound bars the past few months (mid 2016). I bought a couple but returned them for various reasons, quality, features, etc. My Brother has recessed Sonos speakers all throughout his house and he swears by it…So I finally decided to listen to him and pay a little extra money for the Sonos soundbar. (No amp needed so that saves you some money) I wish and listen to them sooner because everything about it is five stars. The quality is second to none, the features are incredible, compatibility with different services and many more are added daily... The set up process is so easy a 10-year-old could do it.
Sonos is how Apple is with iPhones, they are the best in wireless Home audio. I have the Sonos soundbar, sub as well as 2 Sonos play 1 speakers. This delivers top of the line wireless uncompressed audio, it's the best you can get.
If you only get the play bar and the sub, most people would be perfectly happy with that setup.

I have been a Bose owner for several years and swore by Bose until I heard the Sonos Sound Bar!! I was blown away with the clarity and deep base in the woofer! I bought 2 sound bars for both TVs and will buy a third for my office next month. IM ALL IN!

They speakers are very expensive for what you get. I was able to buy an open box for about $530 in stead of the $700. The main reason to buy the play bar is the convenience of being to addd to it and build a custom set up. i would definitely recommend these speakers to anyone but make sure you buy the subwoofer along with this. If you have one of those low profile tvs that sit really close to the tv stand then i would not recommend these speakers things they are very think in height. They will definitely look better it wall mounted.
The app is smooth but not very intuitive for adjusting the treble or base on the sub. You hind of have to dig through it a little. I am giving this 4 stars because it does not have bluetooth .One other issues is that you might need to connect it to your router to set it up.

Originally I purchased this soundbar alone to upgrade from the speakers on my lg oled tv. The soundbar is good on its own but was lacking some serious punch (bass) this led me to purchasing the Sonos sub a few days later. Once this was paired with the soundbar the difference was night and day. I’ll also add that a couple days after receiving the sub I also purchased a pair of sonos ones and must say it’s pretty sweet. All in I know it’s an expensive system but there is a reason why it costs so much. Sure the playbar is relatively old technology with only optical audio output, WiFi, and Ethernet being the only options but you’ll never notice once it’s set up. Also because it’s older I can’t help but think that the quality and long term longevity of these components will far outlast there competitors. All this being said I say buy it but Only with the expectation that it’s a soundbar without the sub and that you’ll have to purchase another $700 speaker to make more bass.

So easy to install even I was able to do it in 5 minutes! Wonderful sound from the TV and great sound when playing music from Pandora. We love the option of choosing which speaker(s) we would like to play at any given time. We have Sonos Play 1 and a very large open plan home and the sound is wonderful. Looking forward to purchasing more Play 1's and subwoofer soon. Playbar is not obtrusive at all, you can hardly see it at the bottom of our 70" TV.

We added the sounds bar in our TV room after enjoying two Sonos 1 speakers in our living room. The physical installation (with the optional mounting hardware) was straightforward, and the setup as simple as all the Sonos gear. The only odd thing is that with the unit mounted above our TV, the wire connecting to the TV (which can't be bent) protrudes above the bar. And of course now there is the risk of "gee, the sound is great, but with two more Sonos speaker we could have surround sound..."

This is truly the best system I’ve heard in a long time. I was skeptical at 1st but when the let me hear the demo...it blow me away. The sound is clear and powerful. I bought additional speakers to add to the system... that scare me time to time because of the true surround sound. Smh...love love love this system. You won’t be disappointed.

I remodeled my living room by the fireplace and created a Special shelf just for this Sonos sound bar under the TV.
It sounds amazing and is so easy to use. Some things do actually get better as time goes by.
