The Sonos Playbase is a low-slung sound base with impeccable design and impressive sound. Its bass is even better than the Playbar's, so there's no need for a sub. Sonos' app and other speakers make it part of one of the best multiroom systems available
The wide effect needs breathing room -- unadorned walls, too, if you please. No DTS support, HDMI ports or Bluetooth. If you have a "clawfoot" TV, it may not fit on top
The Playbase adds excellent home theater and music sound to Sonos' superb multiroom music system. Just make sure your TV fits...

The $999 Sonos PLAYBASE comes a little too late to really hit home and strike a chord with new TV buyers, the kind that are statistically likely to add on a gutsier sound system. It's still an excellent all-in-one speaker and if you do have a TV whose sta...

At the end of the day, despite the complexity around which TVs will work with with the Playbase and which won't, SONOS have absolutely done it again with another stellar product. The sound quality is amazing and after switching my home theatre setup (incl...

I have had 5.1 sound for some years courtesy of a Pioneer AV amplifier and Jamo bookshelf speakers and a sub – I love 5.1 for the more immersive feel it gives TV. It gave me a great comparison and what more can I say – Sonos was extremely good for a “BASE...
Abstract: There was a brief period of time — think 2011 to 2015, where the pedestal-like soundbar was convenient for TV owners. TVs had gotten skinnier and sound had gotten crummier as a consequence. Functioning as both speaker and stand, the pedestal was an appeal...

The PlayBase is very close to being a brilliant TV speaker solution, but it falls just short.It's undeniably a huge upgrade over the sound produced by any TV, offering width, scale, dynamism and excitement that will blow your mind if that's what you're us...
Any all-in-one speaker system is a compromise. You'll trade the excitement of true surround sound for the convenience of easy connectivity and a much simpler footprint. If those tradeoffs are acceptable, the Sonos Playbase is one of the better products in...
It's easy to understand why the Playbase spent three years in development. This is a beautifully executed product that eclipses the performance of the Playbar by some margin. The more we listened to it, the more we loved it. What we have here is a genuine...
Produces great sound, Handles different audio sources well, Easy to setup
No HDMI port, Set automatically to accept audio via optical, Expensive at $899 CAD
Part of the appeal here is based on what's to come. Sonos has already confirmed Amazon Alexa integration is coming. While not officially available in Canada yet, that is probably going to change sooner than later. Whether Siri, Google Assistant and Cortan...
