Hi lloydyo

Depends on what you mean as 'compatible'. You can add a new Sonos 1 to a system comprising a Play 1 and have a multi room set-up but you won't be able to 'pair' them as a stereo pair.

Yes I found their information after searching in the support bar. I didn't find a link on their homepage though, no matter. Thanks anyway!

I have two play 1s in front room set as surround sounds. tried to remove one of them and replace it with a one(alexa). Mixed speakers are not compatable as surrounds. The speakers must be matched pairs. The way i see it is a one is a stand alone speaker with alexa. Why would u have two alexa ones in the same room. Is it so they csn talk to each other lol. I think sonos will do a software update so you can pair the play 1 and one speakers together.

If you have an Apple device, buy the SonoSequencr app (small fee) which allows to make stereo pairs (and surrounds) using play 1 and play one
