For existing Sonos owners, eager to bolster their TV audio, the Playbar is a solid proposition. It sounds terrific, solving the inadequacies of onboard TV speakers at a stroke, with the considerable bonus that it doubles as an additional speaker within...
Fantastic design and build quality, High-detail, wide and engaging sound, Easy streaming from Spotify and suchlike, No HDMI inputs
Creating a Sonos 5.1 system is expensive
The Sonos Playbar is a lounge-unifying device that will let you dump your remote controls and your old hi-fi in the bin. Once you've set it up, it'll also let you control both your TV and your audio system with your phone. For everything but the most cra...
The Sonos Playbar delivers impressive volume levels and its companion mobile app is very well designed, but this slick soundbar comes with some compromises....

Beautiful sound, Integrates well into Sonos system, Can wirelessly add sub and satellites, Clever audio modes, Rich, broadly, compatible apps
Not cheap, Requires particular TVs, No remote in the box, Only one input
We like the Playbar enormously. It sounds stunning, can integrate nicely into an existing Sonos audio system, or be the first thing you add to your home from which a rich, easy to use multi-room audio system can organically grow.We'd be happy to use it as...
A (relatively) discreet way of bringing home cinema sound into your home without giant speakers which delivers detailed sound, easy set-up and a step-up from your iPhone dock....

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...
