The white Sonos PLAY:5 (Gen 1) Wireless Speaker delivers digital music with high-fidelity sound. It works by connecting to an Internet source via Ethernet cable or built-in Wi-Fi. Once connected, you can play your music from your music library or stream music from Internet radio stations, as well as many other Internet music services.
The PLAY:5 features a five-driver speaker system with five dedicated amplifiers - one for each driver. There are two tweeters, two mid-range drivers, and one bass driver. If one room or one speaker isn't enough, you can expand wirelessly by adding Sonos players all over your home. You can enjoy multi-room simultaneous streaming or you can listen to a different music source from each player. For added flexibility, you can control your PLAY:5 remotely via Android device, iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
Clear, Room-Filling Sound
Five Speakers Powered by Five Dedicated Digital Amplifiers
The PLAY:5 uses five digital amplifiers individually coupled with five speakers to deliver clear sound to any room. A subwoofer produces powerful bass while two mid-range drivers and two tweeters fill out the sound
Class-D Amplifiers
The powerful and lightweight amplifiers are energy efficient in standby mode and during regular use
Tweeters
Two tweeters create a crisp and accurate high-frequency response
Mid-Range Drivers
Dual dedicated mid-range drivers ensure the faithful reproduction of mid-range frequencies crucial for accurate playback of vocals and instruments
Subwoofer Driver
The system's dedicated subwoofer driver provides deep, powerful bass you can feel
All-Digital Sound Architecture
The PLAY:5 reproduces the music as the artist intended. All filter settings, active equalization, and time-alignment are done in the digital domain through DSP circuitry, so there's no loss of audio quality or energy
Acoustic Port
The acoustic port on the rear of the unit serves two purposes - it's vital to the sound output of the PLAY:5 when in use and it's also a convenient handle when moving it from one room to another
Adjustable Bass & Treble Controls
Optimize sound performance using room-specific bass, treble, balance, and loudness controls. Adjust volume by individual room or by groups of rooms
