I think it is possible to enjoy both for what they are? Let's not descend into snobbiness.
Interesting, a friend had one, I thought it was nothing special. I only have a Play 3 in the kitchen diner, plays quite loud & excellent for background listening. Having said that Sono does have a signature sound.I have a ruark r1 in the kitchen that I really enjoy.
Don’t think I could live with the sonos.
There’s something to be said for DSP crossovers, I’ve heard a few small actives seemingly defying the laws of physics... okay, they can’t actually defy the laws of physics and they’re never going to rattle the the foundations but played at sensible listening levels, they can be made to sound remarkably big.Go buy a SONOS One and see what you think.
Could happily live with one of these and enjoy my music.
Something this small cannot sound this good, but it does!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously, is this a result of hearing a tuned active speaker?
