Question

Play 3 or play 1 to complete a 5.1?.

I got the Playbar, and tomorrow I will get the sub, and I was thinking on adding 2 rear speakers to complete 5.1.

But, 1 or 3? what are your experiences?.

    The 1s are perfect for that duty.

    I have both and I think the Play1s are better. They really put out enough sound. Now I have set them to "Full" in the surrounds settings as I like more sound.

    Artemix, I did the same; purchased only the soundbar, then added the sub, and now recently added the play 1 surrounds. I really think you need the full set up to appreciate the "solution". I would never need anything more than the play1's for the surround so that would be my recommendation.
