Can you link a stand alone Sonos play 3 to Amazon Alexa?

That is correct. If you get an Echo Dot you will be able to get it to play music on the Play 3

The answer is no, standalone Play 3 does not have microphones built-in. An Amazon Echo product is needed such as the Echo dot to enable Alexa.

? Playbar, Sub, 2 Play:3, and Play:1 ?

Thanks Erwin,

So if I buy an Echo dot that will link to Sonos over wifi as I can't see anywhere to plug a jack into the Play 3?

Thanks

I can’t discover my play 3. I have updated to the latest player and have the sonos skill. Sonos one connected. Thanks

Hey there, tcummin123. Thanks for posting and welcome to the Community. If you plug the PLAY:3 into the router directly with an Ethernet cable, does the PLAY:3 come up?
