  • Sonos makes two wireless speakers that look nearly identical: The Play:1 and the Sonos One. Yet the Sonos One is more expensive. Why is that, and is it worth it? Find out in our head-to-head comparison.

    Confusing..............
    At 0:18 you point to the black speaker and call it Sonos one and then point to the grey speaker and call it older sonos play one.
    Then at 0:47 you call the new sonos one as the grey speaker and the older sonos as the black speaker.
    Which is which? why did you swap their names?

    The Sonos one does airplay the play one does not but you only need one Sonos one to have all of them to work together. Same thing with Alexa or google assist.

  • @camelCased
    @camelCased Před 4 lety +6

    Aand.. still no Bluetooth, so you have to enforce Sonos app on all your guests who want to stream their music to your speakers. And also no open UPnP connection, so no streaming from third-party solutions, such as BubbleUPnP. And no line input (need another Sonos device for that), so you cannot attach your old analog devices... oh, Sonos.... Basically, I'm still in search for a similar device without those limitations. How hard would it be to create a decent sounding device with both Bluetooth and UPnP/DLNA and also add line-in as a bonus?

    I have one older play one in each of my kid's rooms and I am pondering ordering two of the newer ones and added them to the kid's rooms to give them stereo. Wondering how the old and the new are pair as a stereo pair with one being old and one being new. Then that gives them Alexa in their rooms and I wonder how that apple airplay works. Does it stream to the paired device that does not support apple airplay or does it only come out of the one that supports it?

    • @zihiz1
      @zihiz1 Před 4 lety +6

      The good thing is that as long as you have an Airplay-compatible Speaker like the Sonos One, you are able to group that with a non Airplay-compatible speaker, like your existing Play 1s.

    I’m setting up a 5.1 sonos system with the playbar. I picked up 2 Ones on prime day (140 each after gift cards) but I’m debating returning them for play 1. I already have a fire cube on the tv. Behind the speakers is an echo show. I’m worried that too many Alexa devices in the room will be an issue. Any suggestions?

    • @zihiz1
      @zihiz1 Před 4 lety +4

      You can turn the voice assistant feature off on the Ones and the microphones will not pick up anything from your voice.
      One more feature that Parker didn't mention in the video is that the Ones also support Apple Airplay, so if you have an Apple device you can stream CZcams/Netflix etc to your speaker.
      (Do note if you pair the Ones to your Playbar as surrounds, you can't use the Airplay feature)

      I would keep then since you got a good deal, but I usually tell my friends to get the play 1s if they use them for surround sound rear speakers. If anything buy play 1 speakers later when their on sale and replace them for your rears amd move the sonos ones into different rooms.

      ASamson123 I have 2. I think they dropped it because for price it’s almost as good as the Play 5 minus the input for analog. I have a play 2 and a play five in the living room and sound quality wise it’s almost identical for much less $. I only bought the play 5 to hookup our turntable and was surprised how well the play 3 hangs with it.
