Hi All,

 

currently have a new play 5 and sub in my kitchen. I’m thinking of installing a Sonos amp with 2 B&W in ceiling speakers CCM362 to replace.

 

my worry’s is will it be an upgrade or downgrade?

 

kitchen is 4.5m by 7m.

any advise would be grateful.

 

A new Play 5? They haven’t been sold for years.

Even not considering the Sub they would likely be a downgrade from a Play 5 or Five.

Add in the Sub’s contribution, and you are going to be quite unhappy.


Hi Stanley,

It’s a gen 2 play 5! Not sure on your on your comment not sold for years.

my question I believe was was a simple one. Current set up vs amp speakers plus sub.


The Play 5 Gen 2 was introduced and discontinued long ago:

Play:5 (Gen 2)       November 20, 2015 June 8, 2020

Some places still stocked / sold them after that date.

The Five is the current version.

Five       June 8, 2020

 

I thought I’d also answered your comparison question, didn’t what I said help?

Even not considering the Sub they would likely be a downgrade from a Play 5 or Five.

Add in the Sub’s contribution, and you are going to be quite unhappy.
