Abstract: We don't review many wireless speakers that double as picture frames, but if Ikea's $199 Symfonisk Picture Frame is anything to go by, this form factor has a surprising amount of potential. Now, let's get one thing out of the way: This is marketed as a fr...

Unusual design looks like no regular speaker, Sound quality is decent despite the limited depth, Can use all of Sonos' standard features, Interchangeable art panels promise future flexibility
IKEA's artwork may not be to your tastes, No Bluetooth or aux-in support, Price sets it against more traditional speakers from Sonos
Honestly, the Symfonisk Picture Frame was not where I would've expected IKEA to go next. Its first two models in the series emphasized their affordability in comparison to Sonos' line-up; in contrast, this third iteration focuses on aesthetics. That's whe...
The idea Sonos and IKEA have with the Picture Frame is fine. The idea of a speaker that is so flat that you can hang it unobtrusively on the wall came clearly from the interior designers of the furniture store and presented a challenge to the engineers...
A really creative approach to a different style of speaker, Solid balanced sound, Surprisingly solid bass, Easy to set up, Can technically daisy chain two speakers together
High volumes can make the sound a little shallow, Deep bass is missing in action from the range, You can't add your own picture to the frame, only IKEA's limited custom art, Cable isn't easy to hide, Good luck finding the daisy chain cable for two speaker
Not everyone gets into the idea of having speaker boxes set up around their living room, and while that's not us, we get it. We like speakers, but not everyone will, because they're often stumpy little things with grills that don't always mesh in the spac...
No support for custom images, No microphone for virtual assistants, Set-up requires a drill & screws
The Symfonisk picture frame is another qualified success for the collaboration between Ikea and Sonos. It can't quite match the sound quality or simplicity of the lamp - still the best product in the range - but what the two companies have pulled off here...

good sound, well designed, can be hung or stood against a wall in portrait or landscape, easy setup, Sonos control, wide support for music services, can be paired up, optional ethernet, new front plates available at later date
art may not be everyone's taste, can't have your own art prints, more obvious than a small bookshelf speaker, no smart speaker mics, no Bluetooth or line in, still needs a dangling power cord if hung
Ikea isn't the first company to try to blend a speaker with wall art but it might be the most successful, thanks in no small part to Sonos's audio and software magic and a comparatively low price.It is easy to set up, simple to use, supports a wide range...
Sounds great, Easy to setup and control, Multi-room streaming and AirPlay 2 support
Can't display your own pictures, Limited selection of panel designs, No Bluetooth
While I'm sceptical as to how much demand there is for a wireless speaker masquerading as a piece of wall art, it's hard to find fault with the sonic execution of the Symfonisk picture frame.Audio is balanced, detailed and impactful and with a huge number...
Full-bodied, rich sound, Google Assistant / Alexa / Homekit support, Easy to set up
Pricey, Design won't be for everyone
The Symfonisk Picture Frame wireless speaker from Sonos and Ikea is the perfect blend of design and performance. Not only does it look great but the sound quality is comparable to some of the best speakers on the market, such as the Sonos One. If you're a...
