Full Description

An Immersive Sound Experience

The Sonos PLAYBAR provides easy connectivity to your TV with a single optical cable and plays everything connected to it; from games consoles to satellite boxes. The PLAYBAR features 9 amplified speakers: 6 midrange and 3 tweeters which radiate powerful bass tones, sculpted mid-range and clear high frequencies, giving you a deep, immersive sound experience. Automatic equalisation adjusts the system for rich, seamless performance, without the need for user input or expertise

Expandable Sound System

The PLAYBAR can be expanded into a 3.1 setup by adding a Sonos SUB subwoofer, or to a 5.1 system with a pair of Sonos PLAY:3s. The soundbar's attractive design is clean and subtle, suitable for any home environment, it can sit underneath your TV on a table or be mounted horizontally against a wall to save space.

Access to All Music

The Sonos PLAYBAR comes pre-loaded with Internet radio stations. Get over 100,000 free radio stations, shows and podcasts free of charge and browse by type or radio host. Sonos works seamlessly with a host of popular music streaming services and streams content to the room of your choice. You can also play music stored on up to 16 PCs, Macs or NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices on your home network.

Wireless App Control

You can control all your music and rooms with an Android® device, iPhone®, iPod Touch® and iPad®. A free app lets you control the PLAYBAR from the palm of your hand. If you have multiple music players you can control what music is playing in every room, from anywhere in your house. Sonos Controllers aren't tied to a specific player so you can use any controller to control the music and volume in all your rooms. The software is included to use any Mac or PC as a controller too.
