About Sonos has been written a lot and I'm not going to repeat on an epic scale. I am more than two years owners of Sonos Connect plus Bridge - Result: I am completely satisfied, even the German-language support is exemplary. I know the Sonos system so quite well. To Play: 3 From cutting open the cartons until the first sound less than 10 minutes (where a software update was due)! Granted: It was "only" an extension of the system, but still impressive. Unpack, connect, power, wait for startup, add a component to the (Android) Controller - that was the configuration work, then ran the music.
Audio quality: It's amazing how much bass plug in this little thing and amazing how much pressure the Play: 3 creates when you turn. In my apartment, I'll probably never make fullest 100% of the volume. Of course there are systems that can more, but in this design the result is a very decent audio quality. The only and repeatedly called Disadvantage: The lack of power switch. At 6.5 watts in Standby ([...]) is a switched outlet count (Brennenstuhl adapter plugs with earthed switch white) after a short time.
