- Tightly packed yet still powerful: The One SL may be a small speaker, but it still packs a punch. Perfectly designed for streaming music, this little speaker is equipped with two Class-D amplifiers, one tweeter and one mid woofer. This gives it the ability to fill even the largest of rooms, with a rich, detailed sound. Its size makes it versatile, and means that it's perfect for every room and every countertop.
- Cinematic sound: With the addition of the PLAYBAR, you'll be able to experience your favorite movies like never before! This soundbar works to ensure that the dialogue is crisper and clearer, whilst also adding bass and intensifying the sounds. It's packed full of impressive features too. Turn on Speech Enhancement during busy action scenes to make the dialogue even clearer. Enable Night Mode when you're watching a late night movie and don't want to wake up the entire household. This soften sounds whilst still retaining the high clarity.
- Feel the power of the bass: Add the SUB to your home entertainment system and you'll immediately notice, and feel, the difference. This mighty subwoofer is equipped with two Class-D digital amplifiers and two force-cancelling speaker drivers. This drivers are intelligently implemented, as they're positioned at the centre of the SUB, facing inwards. This means that you'll experience no vibration or rattle from the SUB. It's also surprisingly versatile, with the ability to be placed upright or on its side.
- Superb sound through Trueplay: All three of these SONOS products feature the clever Trueplay. This software allows the device to scan and analyse the accoustic properties of the room that it's in and then adjust its sound output accordingly. Essentially, this means that whatever room it's placed in, and wherever it's positioned within that room, it will always adapt, in order to produce the best sound possible.
- An elegant, smart home design: A great thing about SONOS products is that they are all smartly designed. Yes, they all function superbly as speakers, soundbars and subwoofers, but they're also very aesthetically pleasing. They look sleek and modern and even the bigger products don't look awkward or bulky. They fit perfectly into the interior of a futuristic connected home.
- The SONOS Controller: All of the products in this bundle can be controlled remote through the SONOS app. The app is easy to use and opens a number of useful functionalities. Not only can you completely control and manage your devices through the app, but you can also link them all together. In doing so, they will work together to produce an even better sound, truly turning your home into a smart entertainment centre.
- Control through voice commands: As well as remote control from the app, it's also possible to control these SONOS products through voice commands. If you have the relevant smart assistant device or app then you'll be able to use your voice to fully control and manage these products. This can be done through either Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant.

To get your products up and running you'll need two things. Firstly, a secure home WiFi network connection. Secondly, the SONOS app. Open up the app and you'll be provided with step-by-step instructions of how to get your SONOS products going. This is an easy process and takes only a few minutes. Once this is complete, they combine together to produce a brilliantly high-quality sound. Stereo from the One SL, clarity from the PLAYBAR and sonic bass from the SUB.
What's the point in having two SONOS One SL's?
Having two One SL's included in this bundle may seem like overkill, however, there's a very good reason for this. Pairing two One SL's together in the same room allows them to work together to ensure stereo seperation. This results in a much more detailed sound and when combined with the PLAYBAR and SUB, the One SL's can create a true surround sound atmosphere. Why not also consider accessorizing your SONOS products? Add a wall mount for you PLAYBAR to make it even more convient. You won't lose any performance when it's attached to the mount and it doesn't spoil the look of the soundbar either. You could also add a pair of stands for the One SL's. These hold the speakers secure and even hide the power cable to keep the product looking neat and tidy.

FAQs
- Do these SONOS products also work with Bluetooth?
No, these devices are designed to work with WiFi only.
Is the SONOS One SL waterproof?No, the One SL is not fully waterproof, however it is humidity and moisture resistant which makes it great for using in the bathroom.
Is Trueplay available on Android and iOS?Unfortunately, Trueplay is currently only available on devices with iOS10 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.
