- Tightly packed power: The PLAY:1 may be a small and compact speaker, but it still packs a punch. SONOS has supplied it with two Class-D amplifiers, one tweeter and one mid-woofer. This gives it the ability to fill any size room with a rich and detailed sound. When pairing two PLAY:1's together, they work in tandem for stereo seperation. This results in an even more premium quality sound.
- Cinematic sound: Adding the PLAYBAR to your home entertainment system allows you to experience your favorite movies and TV shows like never before. This soundbar intensifies sounds with extra bass, whilst also enhancing dialogue to ensure that it's always crisp and clear, even during the busy action scenes. It's packed full of useful and intelligent features too. Night Mode softens certain sounds whilst retaining clarity so you can watch a late night movie without waking up the entire household.
- Easy setup: It's simple to get these products up and running. Start by downloading the SONOS app, which provides clear instructions that take you through the installation stage. Connect your speakers to your home WiFi network and your new Home Entertainment Set will be ready within minutes.
- A smartly designed home Entertainment Set: There's no need to worry about ths bundle spoiling the interior of your home. The PLAY:1 and the PLAYBASE are elegantly designed and aimed specifically towards futuristic connected homes. The design not only looks good, but it's also intelligent too. Both the PLAY:1 and the PLAYBASE can be placed on stands or wall mounts, making them even more convienent.
- Sound quality you can rely on: Both of the products included in this bundle come integrated with SONOS' Trueplay technology. This software allows them to scan the accoustic properties of the room and position that they're in and adjust the sound output accordingly. This allows them to always produce the best quality sound possible, wherever and however they're positioned.
- Control from anywhere: The SONOS Controller app, available on both Android and iOS, allows you to remotely control and manage all of your SONOS products. As well as this, you can link them together so that they work in tandem. The app also gives you access to over 50 different streaming services.
- Voice assistant compatible: It's also possible to control these SONOS products using voice commands through either Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant. To do this, you'll need the relevant smart assistant device and app. Once you've linked the SONOS devices to the smart assistant, use simple voice commands to control and manage your music.

Setting up your new Entertainment Set is a quick and stress-free process. The SONOS app guides you through the installation steps to get your speakers started. Connect them to your secure home WiFi network and you're ready to go. Link the two PLAY:1's together with the PLAYBAR for a monumental cinematic experience. Feel free to experiment with different positions for the speakers. This never negatively effects their sound output as the Trueplay software always ensures that they're producing a premium sound.
Two PLAY:1's? Why?
Having two PLAY:1's included in this bundle may seem a little bit pointless but there's actually a very good reason for it. When paired together, the PLAY:1's work in unison for stereo seperation. This results in an even richer and more detailed sound. Alternatively, you could place the PLAY:1's in different rooms, to create a larger, multiroom system.
If you're looking to expand and enhance your Entertainment Set even further then it's worth considering some of the other products from the SONOS range. For example, why not consider adding the SONOS SUB. This powerful subwoofer adds some sonic bass to your system and ensures that the lower frequencies of sound are also given the attention they deserve. Expert Reviews

FAQs
- Do these SONOS products also work with a Bluetooth connection?
No, these speakers are designed to only work with a secure WiFi connection.
Can the PLAYBAR be placed on a stand?SONOS manufacture and produce a great wall mount for the PLAYBAR which gives it even more versatility. This can also be ordered through the tink website for free shipping!
Is Trueplay available on both Android and iOS devices?Unfortunately, Trueplay is currently only available on devices with iOS 10 or higher. The sheer number of devices that use that Android platform means that there's a great deal of variables when it comes to software, microphones and audio processes. This makes it difficult for SONOS to ensure a reliable tuning service across all of these devices. However, they are working on this and hope to have Trueplay available on Android in the near future.
