  • The Sonos/IKEA Symfonisk Picture Frame is a very unique speaker. Designed to look like a modern picture, but has some pretty impressive speakers built into it. I tested this speaker by itself, in a stereo pair, and while using them as surround speakers in a Sonos home theater setup.
    Purchase the IKEA Symfonisk Picture Frame:
    Black: geni.us/I68vwfH
    White: geni.us/rJJBuP
    Splash Panel: geni.us/UwvIZLP
    Vinyl Panel: geni.us/7AqQD
    Daisy Chain Cable (on Amazon): geni.us/9Hvl6yf
    Purchase the Sonos One:
    On Crutchfield or Best Buy: shop-links.co/cfyaAbJhzug
    On Amazon: geni.us/L9or7Nm
    Purchase the Sonos One SL:

    They should be able to let you put in a custom frame since they are interchangeable

    Great review! Do you know if you can "pair" 4 speakers instead of 2 as well?

    • @JonahMatthes
      @JonahMatthes  Před 2 lety

      Currently the limit is 2 surround speakers. Would love for them to increase this to 4, but not sure if that's going to happen or not.

      @Techlifeandmore Před 2 lety

      I don’t own any Sonos products, so this might be wrong, but I’m pretty sure that if you connect 2 sets of these in to 2 individual stereo pairs, then group them in a multi room set up, you could achieve a similar effect. As for surrounds, no. As for the reason why I don’t own any Sonos products, it’s because they’re so expensive!

    For the people in the slow class (me included) do I need to daisy chain these 2x frames to have surround with my arc?

    • @JonahMatthes
      @JonahMatthes  Před 2 lety +1

      Nope! Daisy chaining them is only for power convenience, it doesn’t change how they work or operate at all.

    How would I connect these to a TV (e.g. a LG C2) if I wanted to do that? Do TVs have the Sonos app that works directly?

    • @masteroftheconsoles
      @masteroftheconsoles Před rokem

      You need either a sound bar like the arc/beam that have an eARC HDMI input or a sonos port, then you join those together into a room.

  • @guerrafitzgerald
    @guerrafitzgerald Před 2 lety

    If you have the Sonos arc how many of these can you connect to a home theater? Is it just two or can you do four or six

    • @JonahMatthes
      @JonahMatthes  Před 2 lety +1

      As of right now, you can only connect 2 surround speakers to a Sonos Soundbar. You could set as many as you want in a separate “room” but you’ll only get 2 discrete surrounds.

    Most people will probably buy this to hang on the wall, so that higher position will likely make a difference in sound in comparison with the One SL that sits on the table.

    you complain about the wifi setup, SONOS always say your initial setup connecting to your wifi should be done via the ethernet cable provided first and allow the updates etc, so this was your (user) issue rather than the equipment
