Hmmm... so if I understand correctly, we have a Play:1 a One and a One SL? I have to figure this one out, the 'One' product line is not very clear to me.

The SL is replacing the Play:1
So, is the OneSL just a new version of the Play:1? The difference being that it CAN stereo pair with the Sonos One, where the old Play:1 could not?
A feature chart, showing the differences between the Play1, Sonos One, and One SL would certainly be helpful.

One SL has no voice control built in.
Differences between Play:1 and One SL:
One SL can be paired with One

I like this product. I have several places where I bought a One, but don't need/want the voice crap. Would have saved me a few bucks.
Then again, I have some Play:1's around and they're fine too.

You got the more important ones.
As someone who was looking to add 2 rear speakers for a 5.1 home cinema and preferred the One's aesthetic to the Play 1, these are welcome addition.
I'll buy a pair of these. I've given up on voice assistants from a sonos device anyway. I'd rather connect a dot to the speaker.
As a non voice user, I was very excited to see this product released!
Are there any plans to reintroduce the mount on the back? I have Play:1 and will not introduce microphones into my homes, and I'm excited about the SL; however, I don't see a mounting hole on the new unit. 😞

The mounting bracket threading on the back of the Play:1 wasn't introduced to the Sonos One or the One SL, but there are mounts for them made by
Flexson and
Sanus which we have available on our website.
When is the international launch for the Sonos One SL?
The Move launched in Singapore this week, but no news on the SL.

You hit the nail on the head with “One and SL can be setup with BLE while play:1 cannot.” That was a big update - but its not complete Bluetooth 4.2 or 5.0, and cannot pair with Bluetooth devices to stream, yet.
I have bought One SL for replacing my Play1, but i found the sound stage and sub bass seem better on Play1. I really upset for it as I believe the sound quality and tone should be identical the same
The play 1 and Sonos One spins near identical to my ears, the SL is just the One without the voice stuff so no reason for it to be different.
Have you trueplay turned out ?
One and SL have Airplay 2 which I love! Just pick up the phone and play a tune. Voila! C'est bon!

I second this emotion.
it is unclear to me what SONOS aims at with this product, since you can always opt out to use the voice services - maybe SONOS wants more of the low-end market share

It's giving people the chance to get a quality speaker with the features they want, without paying for something they don't want. What's not to like?
Ok SL don’t have microphone for direct voice control. My question is if the Sonos One SL is viewed from Alexa environment and I can say to one Amazon Echo to play music on a Sonos One SL or set it as preferred speaker of a same room where there is a Amazon Echo. Thanks
Nice review on What HiFi including some tuning tips.

According to Sonos bass is better on the One’s vs the 1’s because of a slightly bigger magnet.
You may be experiencing break in and also Trueplay and settings make a big difference.
Alexa Drop In feature missing :-(
Won't buy any other Sonos as planned before Alexa Drop In us included...!
Not much Sonos can do about that, it is a decision made by Amazon.
