What is the reason that a one and play 1 can't make a stereo pair? I know they can't but what is the Sonos reasoning or technical issue. Is it so people have to buy 2 ones, a sales decision. Is it something that could become possible in future?
Is the speaker just acoustically too different to pair

however, due to the lousy search function on this forum you can be forgiven for not finding any of them !

Here is the most extensive discussion (and unofficial/unsupported solution)

Pee’ed with Sonos on the subject of not being able to pair a Sonos One with a Play:1.
My wife and I treated ourselves to a Sonos One for Christmas with the primary intention of creating a stero pair with our existing Play:1.
Having the Amazon assistant was a secondary feature.
After unsuccessfully trying to pair them I found out on the internet forums, to my dismay that it couldn’t be done.
The Sonos One was returned for a refund this morning.
Own goal Sonos! 😠
