The editors didn't like
Truesound not for all
Speaker legs are apparent
Very simple design
App needs an upgrade
Side speaker legs protrude
Ignoring Bluetooth just feels regressive at this point. Software UI feels dated
Should You Buy It
Some limitations for first time buyers still
Need a Sonos ZoneBridge to connect to your router if in a different room
If you don’t have the aforementioned iDevice
However
You’ll either have to control playback through your computer or shell out for an expensive (but lovely) Sonos CR200 touchscreen remote control. There’s also no Wi-Fi built-in
So you’ll have to connect the S5 to your router via Ethernet cable.
No high-res support
Can now be beaten for outright sound quality and value
Fairly pricey
Especially if you want to buy a second one for stereo sound
App could do with a refresh
Very simple design.
Very expensive
Addictive -- you'll want one for each room
Headphone output not brilliant
It's very expensive
No desktop playback
If this is your first ZonePlayer you'll need to wire it to your router or buy a £79 ZoneBridge
Expensive standalone controller
If this is your first ZonePlayer
You’ll need to wire it to your router or buy a £79 ZoneBridge. Expensive standalone controller
High cost
Addictive
Lacks Apple AirPlay
A little bit pricey... but worth it.
No hi-resolution audio support
Slightly bass heavy
A little expensive for what's essentially a plastic speaker
Less connectivity than Bluetooth rivals
Expensive
Difficult to wallmount
No Bluetooth
AirPlay or Google Cast support
Individual speakers can be trumped for sound
No hi-res support
Control system can be restrictive
No High Res support
Slighty dull looks
You'll need to sit it next to a router unless you buy the ZoneBridge
You'll need to buy the controller or have an iPod touch/iPhone to get the most out of it

Meget brukervennlig oppsett, suverent utvalg av musikktjenester og genial romkorreksjon. Lyden er flott med masser av kraft, imponerende bass og flott stereoperspektiv
Designen er kjedelig, og lyden er ikke så detaljert som hos de beste av konkurrentene. Eller på det tradisjonelle anlegget. Kan ikke spille høyoppløst lyd
Med sin nye toppmodell, samt en smart og velfungerende romkorreksjon, har Sonos tydeligvis rustet seg til å ta opp kampen med enhver produsent som vil utfordre dem om multirom-tronen. Og der sitter de trygt! Noen konkurrenter byr på lydmessige finesser...
Glimrende lyd, selvforklarende oppsett, integrerte strømmetjenester, stor fleksibilitet, brukervennlig app
Romkorrigeringen er ikke ekstraordinær, ingen festhøyttaler
Har du behov for bare én høyttaler for eksempel på soverommet eller kjøkkenet, er 10.000 kanskje litt i overkant. Men til stuebruk er lyden fra to stykker Play:5 er rett og slett så bra at de konkurrerer i ligaen der mange gode forsterkere og stativhøytt...

Lydkvaliteten er fremragende, programvaren suveren og antall av strømmetjenester svimlende
Bortsett fra mangel på support for HD-lydfiler er det ingen rimelige innvendinger
Sonos Play:5 leverer testens nest beste lyd. Grensesnittet er det mest gjennomarbeidede, oppsettet enkelt og utvalget av strømmetjenester er suverent. Og det uten å koste mer enn de andre store høyttalerne i testen. Det er blitt stor konkurranse på mult...
Abstract: Etter å ha testet flerromsanlegg fra Samsung , Denon og Philips var det på tide å se nærmere på markedslederen Sonos. For kan de fortsatt konkurrere, eller har de andre tatt dem igjen når det gjelder pris, funksjoner og brukervennlighet? For å gi deg sva...
Enkel å sette opp, god lyd, mobilapper, Spotify-tilgang
Litt høy pris, mangler innebygd WiFi
Sonos Play:5 er en veldig god løsning om du ønsker et musikkanlegg som kan spille musikk trådløst fra datamaskinen eller mobiltelefonen. Den er enkel å ta i bruk, og lyden er svært bra, anleggets utforming tatt i betrakting. Den noe høye prisen kan fo...

Abstract: Play:5 var oprindeligt producentens største højttaler, og den nye variant af højttaleren ligner forgængerne med to indbyggede højttalerenheder og et design, der gør det let at placere den i stuen.Højttaleren er næsten anonym at skue. I vanligt Sonos-setup...

Abstract: At finde den rigtige højtalerløsning til hjemmet er utrolig svært. Ikke bare er der et hav af prisklasser at navigere igennem, der er også tonsvis af dygtige, respekterede producenter, der alle står klar med den ene lækre, designerhøjtaler efter den anden...
