Put it this way if the internet goes down sonos becomes a big expensive paper weight where as soundtouch can rely on Bluetooth and aux all while still being grouped together on the Wi-Fi network streaming music from your phone That for me puts bose on top
Hahaha! How much did sonos pay you? Its obvious that you are really bias... When you try to be non bias you look really bad! I have sonos but i have used soundtouch 20 and i dont know why you cant play the soundtouch via wifi... Probably its beacause you dont know about technology
+Wicho Arriola lol listen to what I said u can play via WiFi. However u are not able to play music from your phone via WiFi. Also the music which I was playing was non copyrighted because I’m paying for the service. So I hand no choice but play that music via my phone. Oh and by the way no-one is paying me!
Wtf??!!! Not enough bass on the st20? Mate it allows you to turn it down because it might be too much bass. You are demanding if you think it’s not enough
Bias review. Do not subscribe people. I mean he downplayed Bose from the get go. Both speakers are good.i have both of them. I like them equally. And YES you can control Bose ST20 with your phone while it connected to WiFi. WTF!! I can change the presets right from my iPhone to listen to different stations.....and it’s on WiFi.
Please make sure to correct me if you can do that. Also please find out how to add more base and treble on the Bose speakers. I know the truth hurts, but sometime we must face the facts.
KosherTech - the treble is always there. The bass can get too deep depending what music you play. It still sounds balanced when you cut down the bass. And as for controlling the speaker from your phone over WiFi, of course it can be done. I don’t walk to my speaker every time I want to adjust the volume or change the presets. I have two Bose SoundTouch and two sonos play 5. Both is awesome. Sonos just don’t have presets where Bose has it and can be change with your remote or your phone app when your remote is not near you. Sorry bro, you gotta dig deeper on your products before you drop a review. Don’t rush to get subscribers.
KosherTech Lmao. Bluetooth homey Bluetooth. I play all my Apple Music thru Bluetooth. iPhone 8 has a new Bluetooth 5.0. Which has a better connection than the older version.
The bass can’t be controlled idk what u mean by too deeper don’t make excuses for Bose. I would like to make the judgement myself, thus having the ability to control it Base.
Do not need a speaker like Sonos or Bose to play that music...I am looking for sources to help me decide and a comment here was spot on and helped me decide: you can always have bluetooth...
Sebastian Myre Look I’m just giving I guys my honest feedback. Go out there and buy the speakers for yourselves and you will see what I’m talking about.
The whole point of a review - particularly a comparison is to show a bias. Not everyone has to agree with the bias, but what would be the point of a product comparison without expressing an opinion?
Ok. I understand what you saying. ....... but what if you lost signal for your WiFi temporarily because your internet went down? No Bluetooth for sonos, no music can be heard. There are advantages for both sides.
True fair point, but what if someone calls u your music stops playing or you’re too fair to connect to the speaker you get my point. But regardless like I said in my vid, if u use the Bluetooth than buy Bose, if u are like me and don’t care one bit about Bluetooth and like the overall full usability with the app than buy Sonos. Btw don’t hate and hit that sub button lol
I have sonos system, i still can play music from my phone even if the internet isn't working, you still control sonos while your internet went down you just can use the features that involve internet connectivity like online streaming, radio etc
I currently have a Play 3 surround for a 5.1 setup, but I am thinking of selling them and going with Play 1 surround instead. Do you think this is worth the hassle? Is there a big difference in sound quality?
eign Why would you do that? just keep the play 3’s. Since they were your first speakers you will notices a difference. Remember the Play 1 only has 1 speaker driver & the play 3 has two, so yeah you will most likely notice a difference. My 5.1 setup is with two play 5’s if I were to switch them to 3’s or 1’s I would definitely notices the difference. My suggestion is stick with the 3’s, but do let me know why you would want to sell them.
Thanks for the reply,I thought they are around the same sound quality. Honestly, I think I'll keep them, not really worth the hassle of selling and they work real well. Like you said, if I downgrade, I will notice a difference and will end up regretting this decision.
Thanks for the comment. Yeah best bet is just to keep them they are awesome speakers. Get an Amazon Eco, Alexa works with SONOS speakers, which is pretty cool. I just got my new SONOS One and a review is coming soon. Amazon and SONOS did a awesome thing by collaborating, their speaker with Alexa is AWESOME!
The reason you can't play from your phone to the bose over Wi-Fi is because you don't know how! Plus you get a remote to control from across the room,pause, play, volume, change presets, and source. You need to learn a product to review it.
Steven since you know how can u tell me please? Oh btw I am trying to play songs from my phone to the Bose speakers, and the songs which I’m trying to play is downloaded to my phone. Seems like u known the answer, can u walk me through it?

I got the sound touch 20 and it amazing bass is perfect

It's funny how your dislikes on Bose comparison bids are always higher bias bittchhhh you get commission for them Sonos reviews XD
Haha I just might brah, but keep watchin and leaving them comments

It's never enough 😉

+jason M Yes the stations, but not your music which is downloaded to your phone, my good sir ;).

I am not sure on what you are asking? Go with whatever works best for your life style.
The Sonos "go out there and get it" and that is how you conduct a bias review.
LieDetectorMusic Do u have any of the speakers?
You are and sound very bias.
Sebastian Myre Look I’m just giving I guys my honest feedback. Go out there and buy the speakers for yourselves and you will see what I’m talking about.

You do sound extremely bias from the very beginning. Though, one question.
Can you play music without the app?
Cereno Simoes Yes u can. For me I use Spotify and play music directly from there to my Sonos speakers.
I currently have a Play 3 surround for a 5.1 setup, but I am thinking of selling them and going with Play 1 surround instead. Do you think this is worth the hassle? Is there a big difference in sound quality?

KosherTech the play five does have removable power it just looks really intergrated
+Sarah Johnson You are correct, I found that out the hard way.
The reason you can't play from your phone to the bose over Wi-Fi is because you don't know how! Plus you get a remote to control from across the room,pause, play, volume, change presets, and source. You need to learn a product to review it.

KosherTech As the reviewer, that is your job, to learn how to use the equipment before you do the review.
Steven at least I have the equipment which I Review ;). Don’t hate on what I Review, just learn and appreciate my knowledge homie.
Play the speakers
hi.can i use those speakers as my laptop speakers .thanks
I believe u can, but only the Bose speaker, I’m not sure though. It might work, with Bluetooth or Auxiliary, again not sure.
Much Much Better Sound Bose
To each their own ;)
Buy the Bose it's the best thing since sliced bread.. Sony is better then Sonos :)
what are you?
Lol, what do u mean? I am human just like u ;)
So bias !
Such a bias review. You are not even a good liar! ... have you had a good pay?
Why am i lying? And i don't understand the "have you had a good pay?" What is that refereeing to? Please explain.
