There are home speakers including the Era 100 and Era 300, then you have the Move 2, which is a &#8216;portable&#8217; speaker but too big to carry around, and finally the Roam 2, which is about as portable as you can get but not as good a standalone speaker as its bigger brothers.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-4NxrgoVsZSh88V9SJ6j2Yf\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-4NxrgoVsZSh88V9SJ6j2Yf slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\"\/>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Sign up for top news, reviews, opinions, top tech deals, and more.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>That left a small gap between Move and Roam that needed to be filled.<\/p>\n<p>The Sonos Play fits nicely into the space, while also falling into the home speaker category, sitting above the Era 100 in terms of price, but backing it up with additional features. Tom Conrad said he was the real &#8216;Goldilocks&#8217; speaker &#8211; I couldn&#8217;t agree more, and I&#8217;m surprised it wasn&#8217;t already.<\/p>\n<aside data-model-name=\"Sonos Play\" data-widget-type=\"review\" data-render-type=\"editorial\" class=\"hawk-root\">\n<div class=\"hawk-main-editorial-container\">\n<p>Today&#8217;s best Sonos Play deals<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<h2 id=\"the-joy-of-music-3\">The joy of music<\/h2>\n<p id=\"elk-95bb2e17-44b6-4384-bddf-574826abc2a3\">The Play&#8217;s excellent sound quality and its flexible design had an unexpected effect on me &#8211; it made me listen to music even more. With so many Sonos speakers dotted around my apartment, including a pair of One SL stereos in the kitchen that I use when I work from home, I didn&#8217;t think I&#8217;d have a real need for the Play, yet I&#8217;ve found myself using it a lot since it arrived.<\/p>\n<aside data-component-name=\"Recirculation:ArticleRiver\" data-recirculation-type=\"inline\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"Trending Bar\" data-nosnippet=\"\" class=\"clear-both pb-0 pt-2 mb-4\">\n        <span class=\"&#10;            flex&#10;            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]&#10;            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]&#10;            font-article-heading pb-0 !text-base uppercase sm:text-sm font-bold&#10;        \"><\/p>\n<p>            What you can read next<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>It&#8217;s been great to be able to have it next to me on the desk where I work, and bring it into the room where I have the Sonos Arc and one other speaker set up.

You can read more about the sound quality in our in-depth Sonos Play review, but take it from me as someone who not only owns other Sonos speakers but also has a dedicated hi-fi listening room, the Play sounds great.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve never owned a Sonos speaker before, I think the Play is a great entry point for the brand. It offers excellent sound quality and usability from the get-go, while also having the ability to open a wide-ranging multi-room audio system thanks to its Wi-Fi support.<\/p>\n<p>And since Sonos has found its footing in multi-room audio, I love the fact that the Play makes joining that ecosystem ridiculously easy.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"more-than-just-a-pretty-face-3\">More than just a pretty face<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"elk-727cee75-3ec2-4272-8429-10d9b4ef1c41\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:5046px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.24%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The back panel of the Sonos Play speaker\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-1200-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/23pyETMAve7K3VyaNCRZwL.jpg\" class=\"inline\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Photo credit: Future \/ Max Langridge)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"elk-0949838b-0e45-4dcb-a630-9a57491cf30e\">I&#8217;ve always been a fan of the Sonos aesthetic, so much so that my home is full of speakers and soundbars, while the Ace headphones were the first in-ear headphones I really fell in love with. All products are pleasing to the eye and touch, and the Play continues that trend.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, the buttons on the top panel could be a little more defined to save you from having to look at which one you&#8217;re pressing, but other than that I can&#8217;t find fault with what Google Play has to offer physically.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a nice combination throughout the show as well. For example, Sonos used the same green color for the small Google Play handle and its charging base that the inside of the Ace case used. It&#8217;s a subtle, but very effective nod and I, for one, really appreciate it.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"elk-fac1a8bd-1b68-4d23-be6b-0b7c886a8c2c\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:5153px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.24%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Close the front panel of the Sonos Play speaker\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-1200-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oioEc7uxg9QXoLUGWo7pHM.jpg\" class=\"inline\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Photo credit: Future \/ Max Langridge)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"regaining-trust-3\">Restoring trust<\/h2>\n<p id=\"elk-86c4ad7e-87c9-49b6-9319-affd8c2d570a\">I am fully aware of the tumultuous years Sonos has had recently.
