Sonos is an American company that develops and manufactures cutting-edge audio products, from hi-fis to soundbars. Since its founding in 2002, the innovative manufacturer has become a staple in the audio industry. Its products aim to provide your house with a sound system in every room.

It’s known for its collaborations with other big companies, like Ikea and the record label Blue Note Records.

Sonos products are both elegant and functional. If you opt for a Sonos sound system for your home, here are just some of the advantages you can expect:

Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa voice control

Many Sonos smart speaker products- like the Sonos Move– have a built-in voice control function.

This handy feature allows you to play your favourite music, browse the news, ask questions and even more without even having to move! Along with Apple Airplay compatibility, built-in Google Assistant and Alexa is a major selling point of Sonos’s products.

Sonos App

All of the newest Sonos products are controllable through the Sonos app. The app – designed for easy navigation- helps you set up your speakers initially, then can be used to control the levels and volume of your audio once they’re set up around your home.

Easy connectivity to other devices

Because every Sonos audio product is designed to be a part of your house-wide setup, they connect easily to other devices. Whether to your TV or another speaker, a Sonos speaker can be connected to other devices using the Sonos app.

Multiroom music playback

Through the app, it couldn’t be more straightforward to set up MultiRoom Music for your Sonos system. Once it’s set up on your device, multi-room audio allows you to control playback throughout your home.

Using a voice assistant, you can change the incredible sound in every room with ease. Roll on dancing in the kitchen and perfectly soundtracked bubble baths!

Are Sonos speakers good for a home theatre system?

Yes, they are a popular choice for home theatre setups. For a surround-sound home theatre, you’ll just need three or more audio devices.

Would a Sonos speaker have a manufacturers warranty?

All Sonos audio products come with a one-year warranty, effective from the date you receive your product.

During this time, the company warrants that your product will be fully operational, without any manufacturing defects. If your speaker is faulty, you are entitled to a free repair or replacement during the warranty period.

Would a Sonos speaker work without an internet connection?

Some line-in alternatives by Sonos, however, will work without the internet. The Sonos Five connects to your CD player, record player or other device using a 3.5mm line-in port, meaning it doesn’t require a Wifi connection.

Do Sonos have a portable smart speaker?

For a portable and Wi-Fi-connected audio solution, look no further than the Sonos Move.

Available in both black and white, this Wi-Fi audio system has a shock-resistant casing and a built-in handle which makes it perfect for listening on the go. Wherever you want to listen, the compact Sonos Move provides a brilliant sound.
