Sonos, just introduced the SONOS PLAY:1, a wireless speaker that transforms music listening at home.
PLAY:1 streams all your favourite music to any room in the home, in high fidelity sound. Available October 29th in Canada from select partners and on Sonos.com, PLAY:1 retails for $219. And, for a limited time this holiday season, purchases come with a free BRIDGE, valued at $59.
“Sonos was created upon the belief you should never have to choose between quality sound and an easy way to access all your music at home,” said John MacFarlane, CEO, Sonos, Inc. “The PLAY:1 makes getting started with Sonos even more accessible to music lovers than ever before.”
A compact wireless speaker with surprisingly big sound
PLAY:1 is a smart speaker that features hardware and software designed by Sonos to ensure the best possible performance for the size. A custom-designed mid-woofer and tweeter deliver deep, rich and surprisingly big sound. With a powerful low-end and crisp mids and highs, new smart processing technology pushes Sonos’ drivers further than ever before, minimizing distortion even at full volume. Plus, PLAY:1 projects a wide field of sound, delivering a great listening experience no matter where you are sitting in the room. And since the Sonos wireless network is devoted to streaming music in HiFi sound, you’ll enjoy smooth music wirelessly without dropouts anywhere in your home.
PLAY:1 is built to last with premium materials and rock-solid construction. A sealed architecture creates resistance to the most humid conditions in the home, even steam from a running shower.
Stream all your favourite music
PLAY:1 lets you stream all the music on Earth and access it all using a single, easy to use app. Play millions of songs and playlists from the most popular music services like Songza, Rdio and Deezer; listen to your personal music library, whether it’s stored on your computer, in the cloud, on your smartphone or on your tablet; or tune in to more than 100,000 free Internet radio stations, podcasts and shows from around the world.
