Good looks, solid build, Seamless app integration, Sonos app is still be best remote app ever, Responsive touch keys, Can be expanded with extra speakers
No HDMI, Expensive if you want to build a system
A convincing argument for throwing out your stereo...
The Sonos Playbase continues the company's philosophy of making easy-to-use and good-sounding speakers in an attractive package. But, due to the lack of support for many surround sound formats, artificial sounding processing and ecosystem lock-in, cinephi...

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...
High-impact bass, Wide sound field, Great stereo effects, Dead simple to use, Add Sonos speakers for 5.1 system
Limited inputs/ relies on TV audio output quality
Do buy the Sonos Playbase if you don't mind spending a little extra on the best product in the soundbase category. It sounds better than many competing (albeit slightly less expensive) sound bars, it's extremely easy to use, and it virtually disappears in...

Amazingly big, wide sound for a box this compact, Natural, punchy bass, Does all of the great things any other Sonos speaker can, Can be upgraded to a full 5.1 system
Treble is harsh, often annoyingly so, Optical-only isn't very flexible - or even necessarily that simple, Won't work perfectly in every room
If after all of this you're left with the question of whether the PlayBase sounds better or worse than the PlayBar, the answer is that I can't tell you - and that's by design. Sonos doesn't want you to choose between the two TV speakers on sound quality...
Impressively big, wide soundstage, Stylishly minimalist and sturdy build, Can be part of multi-room and surround systems,
Harsh treble detracts from sonic strengths, Setup by the single optical input can be fiddly, Lacks high-res audio support,
If you're eyeing up a Sonos Playbase, you're probably the sort of person who isn't too bothered about a lack of hi-res support, and that's fine.What Sonos offers is simplicity, style and a stunning sonic upgrade over any and every flatscreen telly in exis...
Fantastic sound quality,Super slim and solid design,Ample bass without sub,Sonos app platform remains one of the best out there,Seamless multi-room integration with Sonos system,Voice control with Alexa or Google Assistant device
Very expensive,No HDMI,Sub sold separately,No DTS Surround support
The Sonos PlayBase is a beautifully designed speaker that offers an option for those that don't have the luxury of a wall-mounted TV, or for those that would rather have their TV on furniture.It delivers excellent sound quality from our initial experience...
Nos ha sorprendido muy gratamente la calidad, y cantidad, de sonido que es capaz de ofrecer la Sonos Playbase. Realmente es un aparato que es un lujo instalar, ver, tocar, usar y escuchar. Y cuando decimos “cantidad” no exageramos… Hubo momentos de la pru...

La Sonos Playbase es una base de sonido de poca altura con un diseño impecable y sonido impresionante. Los sonidos bajos de este dispositivo son incluso mejores que los del Playbar, así que no hace falta tener una bocina dedicada de sonidos bajos. El app
Necesita un espacio amplio para escucharse bien, preferiblemente con paredes sin adornos. No apoya DTS, puertos HDMI ni Bluetooth. En dependencia de la base del televisor, quizás no la puedas colocar debidamente
La Playbase es una excelente adición para teatro en casa y música al soberbio sistema de música multihabitación de Sonos. Pero tienes que asegurarte de que puedes colocar el televisor encima...
