Hi,
I want to get a wireless audio player for my bedroom which is quite small. I have a pc and a tv in there in a close proximity so if I get a Sonos play 5, could I use it a tv speaker and a pc speaker and will sound better than on board sound. And also what is the difference between the Sonos play 1 and 3 is it worth spending more for the 3 or is the 1 good enough?
Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks!!
 
How fussy are you about your audio? Sonos has a great interface but very average sound quality, I'm very fussy and am yet to find any Sonos setup I can tolerate
 

I'm not really that fussy on audio but I do like the Sonos setup and look of it but don't really know which one to go for
 
The Play 5 is much better than the 1or 3 so if the price works for you go for it. It has better sound quality not just more volume capability.
It has an aux input for your PC or TV (you would need a switch to use both without manually switching them) and a headphone output that you might find useful.
 
Forgot to say that the better quality translates into more clarity at low volume which is great in a small room close up. You can use it at a lower volume than you otherwise might.
 




Thanks for the suggestion but I think the Play 5 is a little to steep for me and also don't have anywhere to put near my TV. I am now wondering which to go for between the Play 1 or 3. My room is about average size, would the Play 1 be fill the room and still sound good. Is the bass any good in it?
