    After joining the Sonos EcoSystem years ago we bought this to add to our tv in our bedroom. we have the original soundbar in our living room mounted on the wall. love how it just works and can easily play music to it.

    Better system than my old Bose 901 & 801's.

    I was apprehensive with the Sonos pkg because I've always been a Bose product fan for over 35 years. Now after listening to my Sonos package, I'm hooked on Sonos. Thanks to Best Buy #430 especially to James and Store Mgr Jay.

    If you don't have any room for a Sound Bar, it will work well with the rest of your SONOS equipment through one app. It sounds better than any TV alone. The Smaller the Room the Greater the experience. To be Fair, I only played with it a few Minutes.

    Mostly I love the Playbase. I wish that it was a bit smaller but it was designed to be under a TV and not in front. I bought this before the Beam so today I would probably buy a Beam since you can't buy this one anymore anyway. On the pricy side

    The Soundbase Makes for a Good Sonus Foundation

    The Soundbase makes for a good Sonus system foundation with regard to streaming your TV Audio throughout your home. I would like a little more bass and high end clarity from the soundbase itself but having said that, when you stream your TV audio to your other Sonus speakers then you've got a really awesome set-up.

    I initially had a problem with set-up and connection to my Sonos system. The issue was with my computer which was identified by the Sonos Help desk. They walked me through the process and it works great!

    The Playbase is a terrific new Sonos product and I have upgraded from the play bar in order to raise the TV base a little higher. The sound is excellent, crisp and clear at all volume levels.

    I was looking forward to owning a Sonos system. I was disappointed as it kept losing its connection. I had to return it. The sound quality was just okay.

    Good Sonos technology, sound quality lacking

    I bought this for my main TV which sits in a very large room consisting of the family room and kitchen. Room total is probably 20X40. I bought it thinking the latest SONOS technology and with the integrated sub would make up for no actual sub. What I found was for my setup the sound was not expansive. It felt like I had to sit directly in front of it to get all the sound and it created no "surround sound" feeling with sounds moving left to right and vice versa. As other reviews have mentioned it does have a treble problem. The highs are way too high and became annoying very quickly. I have three Play 1's, Beam and a connect so I am a Sonos fan. However, I returned this for the Playbar and am much happier.

    Great sound direct from the TV. The network connection drops out. I have tried several configurations and settled on 2 Sonos Boosts with 12 Sonos speakers on a dedicated network; speakers continually drop in and out. I would not recommend as a networked device. Also there are software update issues. I was in the middle of watching a movie and the speaker stopped playing over an optical connection, went to the app to check the speaker, and was required to update the software; speaker was fine after the update.
