 WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION 

How do you win?

At the end of the Entry Period, Sonos will select a total number of eight (8) winners of the Contest, one for each of the categories listed in the “How It Works” section above. If two winners “tie” based on the metrics above, the user with the older account will win the tiebreak. If the winner does not want the prize the user with the second best metrics in the chosen category will win the prize.
 

No later than March 2nd, 2025, Sonos will contact the winners via private message in the community. Sonos shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential prize winner for any reason. Time is of the essence in verifying each potential prize winner and awarding each prize. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential winner does not respond within twenty-four (24) hours of the first notification attempt, or if the prize notification is returned as undeliverable to such potential winner, such potential winner will forfeit their prize and a runner-up winner may be selected. If any potential winner is found to be ineligible, or if they have not complied with these Official Rules or declines a prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner will be disqualified, and an alternate winner may be selected. Sonos may successively attempt to contact up to two (2) potential winner(s) of an applicable prize in accordance with such procedure, and if there is still no confirmed winner(s) of such applicable prize after such attempts have been made, if any, such prize may go unawarded.
