2015 Holiday Gift Guide: Sonos PLAY:5
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Features, Home Entertainment, Music, Family, Men, Techies, Under $500,
Yes, Sonos is back in our 2015 Holiday Gift Guide, and for good reason. That reason is the absolutely incredible redesigned Sonos PLAY:5. The Sonos PLAY:5 houses six high-quality digital amps individually paired with six speakers to deliver fantastic sound in any room, and it does it with clarity and no distortion. This means that every voice and instrument shines through in detail, even when turned up to the max. You really can’t go wrong with any Sonos products, but the Sonos PLAY:5 is the new kid on the block getting all the attention, which it deserves. As soon as I opened it up and started playing music through it, the quality and attention to detail was apparent. This is a real home run from Sonos, and would be the perfect gift for any music lover.
You can pick up the Sonos PLAY:5 now. It also goes nicely with the other Sonos components:
You can use a pair of Play:1, Play:3, or Play:5 units to create a wide stereo pair as well!
