Reviewers say two sonos one speakers sound better than one sonos 5. Personally I have two sonos five speakers and they sound very good.
thats just a left and right set up, you cant compare that to this
But two sonos one speakers are similarly priced to one sonos 5
I’ve got two Sonos Ones so great answer. Thanks
Its 5 speakers compared to 1 speaker
I have the play:3 and its heaps better then the play one for sounds quality, the play:5 would be even better
Sonos Play:5 (specs from Sonos Website)
Audio
Six Class-D digital amplifiers perfectly tuned to match the six dedicated speaker drivers and the acoustic architecture.
Three tweeters create the crispest and clearest high-frequency response.
Three mid-woofers ensure you’ll hear the faithful playback of mid-range vocal frequencies plus deep, rich bass—without distortion, even at high volumes.
Phased speaker array (three drivers on top and three on the bottom) creates a wide stereo soundstage that directs the sound left, right, and centre.
Audio line-in. An auto-detecting 3.5 mm connection.
Adjustable bass and treble controls let you customise your sound by individual room or groups of rooms.Sonos One (specs from Sonos Website)

I watched the Sonos video on YouTube where they talk about designing either the Play:3 or Play:5.
They were designed so that they could lie horIzontal (as a single) or vertical (as a stereo pair).
A thought did go through my mind how a pair Play:5 would compare to other traditional speaker setup in similar price range (compromise between sound vs simplicity / ease of use / setup).
As I am a user of wireless audio.
The all in one aspect did sound appealing.I use my play 3 sitting normally on kitchen bench and it fills up 2 rooms (kitchen and dining room pretty good
@asa79: Yeah I should have explained I was looking for an upgrade from the Yamaha YAS-106 soundbar + AirPlay (Apple TV) in-a-shelf in the bedroom.
At the time I was considering 2x Sonos 1’s, 2x homepods, or traditional bookshelf speakers as an upgrade. Ended up getting the bookshelfs (with Apple TV 3 connected for wireless audio) without even listening to the wireless options.
(researching & comparing bookshelfs took enough time, and garnered my interest in them)Then I came across the Sonos design video, and saw how they put a lot of work into how they sound. So I have a better impression of them now (without listening yet).
@thebadmachine: Edit: Forgot to mention I considered spending a bit more for a pair of Play:3’s or 5’s at one point (over the Play:1’s).
My only regret is that I didn't buy a pair from that $500 each Catch of the Day deal last year. I bought a single unit as I wasn't familiar with Sonos at the time, and it was OzBargained within a few hours of posting the deal.
Is the coupon code: MOTHERSDAY19 good for any other products?
Coupon applies sitewide.
Is Sonos better than Bose or Yamaha ? Trying to decide which one to buy.. looking at soundbar, sub and speakers..
I use Sonos on 5.1 playbar, woofer and 2 Sonos ones .. you will not for wrong
**You will not go wrong
Yea me too, looking for sound bar, sub and speakers. Op can you pls do us a deal on the 3?
I think OP just stumbled upon the deal. Isn't listed as associated.
Got a bit excited when I thought this was the Sonos Beam for a minute
Beam is $484.20 with code (which is apparently sitewide).

have one play:5 2nd gen. wonder if i do need another one, or a sub, or … something else? any comments? I live in an apartment.
No need for sub in apartment imo. Stereo of these sounds good although I'm not sure what gen this is.
Will a beam + 2X play1 better than the playbar on its own? Live in apartment as well
Or a beam itself is good enough for apartment?It depends on size of room
Everyone needs a sub
Your neighbours will hate you.
OP, If code applies site wide, it is worth adding:
Play:1 $178.20
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-play-1-wireles…Beam $484.20
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-beam-smart-com…Playbar $791.10
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-playbar-home-t…Sub $791.10
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-sub-passive-su…Playbase $791.10
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-playbase-music…Connect $422.10
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-connect-wirele…Also if you add 2x Play:1’s to the Playbar + Sub bundle, total is $1938.60.
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-playbar-sub-bu…
Add the Sonos Boost and it comes to $2060.10.
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-boost-network-…All slightly cheaper than the KlappAV deals, except for the Beam.
(Also KlappAV had a minimum $500 spend for free shipping)
(Freight is free for Addicted to audio, express under 5kg, standard over 5kg.)Buy one for your mummy.
Currently have Logitech Z550 satellites with a Pioneer 521 that I think has semi-died. Would two of these be a good replacement? Want to have google home and will play spotify, TV, Switch
Sonos ONE 2nd gen comes to $237.60 with the couponcode
https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/sonos-one-wireless-s…is it possible to do 5.1 with beam - sub - 2* Play:5 (gen2)?
Yes, but it's going to be overkill, because the Play:5 will be used as surround speakers. Play:1 or ONE is better for the surrounds
Maybe 2x Play:3’s is a good in-between.
Yes alot of people do that but with playbar and sub and play 5 for rears
It really all depends on how good a surround you want
Worth pointing out that the Play:5 is Sonos's top speaker. Its a large bookshelf class speaker. Sounds fantastic and goes loud.
Two Play:5's in stereo is a very nice setup. Especially at this price.
Woke up this morning ready to buy the beam. Price with promotion went up from Beam $484.20 to $502.20… pretty disappointing.
Even the play 5 has gone up to $669 was $629.
Let's see if they correct it then. They post a lot on ozbargain and i wouldn't have thought they would be price jacking during promotion periods.
yeah… it's price jacking. SAD….
wow lucky i ordered last night!
email this morning, one gen 2 (white) is out of stock and they will back order for end of the week.
How do these compare to the Sonos One? Thanks
