The Sonos Amp is the perfect marriage of Sonos' exquisite multi-room audio technology and whichever passive loudspeakers you decide to drive with it...
Impressive versatility, Easy integration, Designed for shelf or rack mounting
EQ limited to bass and treble adjustments, Noticeably bright sound with some speakers
The new Sonos Amp is a marvel of simplicity and versatility that will enhance and expand any Sonos multiroom audio system in ways that are worth far more than its $599 price tag...
The Sonos Amp is most definitely an improvement on the former Connect:Amp in both performance and abilities. That HDMI input sets it up as a lounge hub for TV and music (you can add other Sonos speakers or a second Amp for 4.1 surround), while custom inst...

Fun, punchy sound, Open and spacious, Works beautifully with a TV
Slight lack of hi-fi sophistication, Pricey
Let there be no doubt; paired with a good pair of speakers, the Amp is the best-sounding, most hi-fi like component Sonos has ever produced. But it's also typically Sonos in the way it's a joy to use and live with.What's surprising is how excellent it is...
Flexible choice of speakers, Powerful and rich audio, Works well with vinyl, Decent TV audio,
Expensive, No Trueplay with most speaker choices,

Punchy, engaging sound, Broad, deep soundstage, Great for TV, Neat design,
No hi-res, Slight lack of subtlety,
If you're already eyeing up a Playbar or Playbase, we urge you to consider spending the extra on the Amp and a capable pair of speakers. As mentioned, we'd suggest the B&W 607s if you're going small or the Fyne F302s if you're going big, either of which w...
Abstract: Note: This article was first published on 19th April 2019.As much as Sonos is a company that sells audio solutions, they've mostly stopped short of marketing themselves as selling to the audiophile. Instead, we'd argue that the real value that the Sonos b...
