'You're better than this' Event June 6

so today is the latest Sonos event. Sadly it wont be live streamed. The 'teaser' image attached

Any further speculation what it will be
  • New voice enabled Home Theatre device
  • More on Airplay2
  • More on 'Works on Sonos'
  • New Desktop app ?
  • Something else completely ?

Thanks. Keep sharing the updates. The net is bad where I am so I can’t live stream.

Initial impressions...I prefer the current Playbar design 😕

So far the only thing worth mentioning is the Beam. Everything else Beta users know about.

The new Sonos Beam is a $399 soundbar that works over HDMI to provide sound for TVs and uses Alexa to become a smart speaker than can take on the Echo and the HomePod. Can the hybrid Sonos Beam convince consumers to upgrade?

Well that was a disappointment. I have no interest in voice integration and the one new speaker that was introduced was a tiny soundbar. 😕
