Abstract: The Sonos soundbar has been a long time coming – retailers went to see it nearly 18 months ago, and Sonos fans have heard plenty of buzz about the brand's take on a product category that is expanding rapidly. Finally, however, the Playbar is on sale an...
Looks great, Works with existing TV remote, TV sound is clearer, louder & wider, Works as a Sonos ZonePlayer, Can be augmented with Sub & Play:3s
Full 5.1channel setup is expensive
Sonos doesn’t launch products too often, but when it does pull back the curtain on something new, it’s almost invariably worth the wait. The PlayBar seems like a natural progression for the company, and it’s clear that a lot of thought and planning went...
Easy to install, sleek, good sound, can connect to Sonos Sub and two Play:3 speakers for surround sound
No HDMI, no 7.1 support, streaming to other components require they are in the same zone
The Sonos PlayBar is a fantastic piece of kit that really delivers. While the price might seem high on the surface you are getting a speaker that replaces your AV receiver, a stack of speakers, and the ability to make it part of a bigger streaming s...
The Sonos Playbar is a superb soundbar. Not only is it sleek and well-built, but it also provides unparalleled sound with plenty of extra features which make it even more desirable. We can't fault the Playbar, but the high price will put it out of reach f...
Whether or not you like the thick, slab like design (we’re quite taken with it), the Sonos Playbar could not have been designed better. It’s a beefy 5.4 kilos and 90cm wide, but once it’s on, you soon stop noticing it’s there. Setting up gadgets that connect to your home network is usually a chore, but the Playbar is painless. You plug it into the router and your TV, or follow the steps to connec
There’s little to fault the Sonos Playbar...except for one thing. All this comes at a cost. The Playbar price rings in at an eye-watering £599. When you can get respectable rivals for less than £100 (albeit, rivals without streaming music services built in), that’s a tough call to make. And if you want to lash it up as part of a full Sonos surround sound set-up, that’ll be another half grand for
Put simply, the Sonos Playbar is the best soundbar we’ve ever tested. Deep, rich sound combined with incredibly well thought out design and Sonos’ flawless multi-room audio system put this box on another level to all of its rivals. It’s just a shame it...

Simplicity, TV integration, Design
Surround sound could be better, Audiophiles will need a sub
Much improved sound vs. TV speakers, Can be expanded to 5.1 surround, Great design, versatile placement
Limited audio adjustment, High price
Sonos's PLAYBAR music system requires an accompanying smartphone or tablet and a little bit of practice, but as a way of bringing together all your music sources *and* replacing your TV's speakers, it's without equal. It's not the best soundbar we've hear...

The Playbar does a lovely job, but you could get something that sounds just as good with more features for less money. That said, Sonos is a luxurious, simple, and satisfying way to listen to music. If you can afford it in the first place, you wont disap...
Well first of all, I wish the Sonos Playbar has a remote control of its own. It was frustrating having to switch on and unlock my phone, look for the app just to adjust the volume. Having said that, I can't say anything bad about the sound quality. It rea...
