Another Play 3. Wrong move?

I still believe the Play:3 sounds better than a single Play:1 (more low end) but a pair of Play:1s sounds better then a single Play:3

I always say I believe a Sonos system should always start with a Play:5 because it gives you an input in case of any need for music source outside of the sonos core provided.

two Play:3's situated near corners of room will give you some very good sound. I have found the Play:3 sounds best near wall in corner as it really radiates from there.

You pair them and then the app will ask you if you want to perform trueplay (has to be from Apple device).
Thank you Chris!
I plan putting both of my Play 3's in the corner, near the wall. For now, my single Play 3 sits on a shelf and has empty space behind. And it still sounds good.

Guys, it's here! Another Play 3! I am over the moon!
As staeted, setup took literally less then 2 minutes. And I've tried stereo pair them. Sweet. the best part is, I did not even trueplay them yet (my son makes a lot of sweet noises).And my wife learned to group, ungroup, and all in a few moments. Sonos for life. My next goal is Playbar or Playbase.

They are pretty loud aren't they - two play:3s (especially close to wall where low end will radiate) are darn powerful.

I have a pair in my garage currently. 3 car garage and neighbors would probably complain if I tried turning them up all the way considering how loud they can get.

You mentioned grouping and ungrouping. Do you have some other Sonos speakers in house (what are you grouping - since these 2 play:3s are a single stereo zone).

Congrats, I have both play 3 and sonos 1. The play 3 paired are a very good setup for larger rooms. I use them in my living as it just works better then my pair of ones in the bedroom.

They sure are loud, but may goal was to "flood" the room with sound. Shear volume is not my top priority.

Both P3's are in the same large room in oposite corners, more than 7 metres away. I've tried putting them closer and made them into stereo pair. It sounds nice, but I don't want to restrict listening to one sweet spot. So I moved them much further appart. I just named one room white and the other room black (refering to the colour of the speakers). Then I group the white with black and enjoy 🙂 And as I have said, I still need to trueplay them!
I plan to buy a playbar or a playbase to be my main device for movies and TV, but have to here one in person. My main concern is poor dialogue, as stated in numerous posts.


Thanks for the reply

My wife likes the 1's, but I am glad I went with larger and frankly, better speaker. I can imagine a playbar and pair of 1's, though :-)

Nothing wrong with Playbar and Play:3s!

Last time I listened to the playbar( w/out a sub), i wasn’t that much impressed. I will listen to playbar and playbase once more and compare them to my qacoustics m4. Even if they sound a bit worse, i will buy either a playbar or a playbase, but no sub, to expand my sonos family. In the other hand, if the dialogue is muffled, it will be a deal breaker.

Inhave heard that the playbase is better then the playbar when it comes low end and using without sub. I only have the playbar so can’t compare but that is what most everyone says.
