Sonos Play 3

I'm about two weeks ago bought a Play3 for the kitchen and the dining room for Play5.The setup Sonos Play 3 :The installation of the system was not really Plug and Play.Install software on your PC, or download the mobile app.Bridge to connect the router and connect it to a button with the controller / mobile phone / PC software.Thereafter the same with the Play3 and Play5. (Need an outlet only)Then there was the same, that the devices are not compatible with each other and need a firmware update.To get this you have to register with Sonos. Once all three components were up to date, it could go but then we go. Did the setup on the mobile phone and it was beautifully done, step by step through the setup. This should in any case, someone also make the expert is not a PC.Operation:Sonos Play 3 On the devices, there are only 3 buttons. Volume up, volume and mute.Use to operate mainly my cell phone (Android). The app responds quickly, is clear and stable.Only one widget I miss. But have found one from a third party. With which one has the trigger and the volume control buttons directly on the homescreen.If you press the play button then the most recently played playlist or Internet radio station of the last plays.Music folders can be located on the NAS drive is easily integrated. The devices create their own music index, you must aktuallisieren if you save another song on his NAS. (Can you set the day it is made automatically).To create lists on your PC / Laptop of course more convenient than the phone. And there are too Interntradiosender hauf.Actually I'm quite happy with the service. Only a real play / stop button on the devices would have been great.The sound:We hear from the Sonos Play 3 and Play5 already a good difference.With the subwoofer in Play5 this has a lot more oomph than the small ones.Both of them sound great in my opinion. Absolutely clear even if they sometimes continue to twist and distort no.For the size of the device really great. And they may well turn up loud.Had several guests at Christmas and many were enthusiastic about the sound and wanted to have something like.But it is difficult to take a closer look on it. Everyone hears something so different and has different preferences in terms of the sound. I must say that I am more than happy with it.The designSonos Play 3 :Got it in white. Small, stylish, no defects in the processing.More occurs to me is not actually a.And disturbing conclusion:Sonos Play 3 - The star cast, there is sure that the devices have no on / off switch and consume according to reports from other quite a bit of power in standby. This must now really be no more. Although you have not measured it verbauchen what the devices, but I will still catch up in hifianlagens.com.Bottom line, I have not regretted the purchase and will equip them with the time probably other rooms so.
