New Product idea… Sonos Plug

You guys should develop a mini speaker that would plug directly into a power outlet like a nightlight, so we can put them all over our house with no wires… you could call it the “Sonos Plug” 🤗

Hi @buzz 

Hi @buzz

I received word back on that: 

OK scratch that - they changed it to 8 hours already so it should not still be happening - we’ll let them know.

Thanks. Maybe they think that I changed time zones while typing. (I’m in a fixed location.)

    If you guys were as innovative as you say you are, you’d figure it out.. I have a Bose micro sound link that is about as small as you’d need to make it and it sounds amazing… I’m  Just giving you a free multi million dollar idea, but you do with it what you want 🤷‍♂️

      Hi @TJ99 

      Further thought - I gather you are not from the US? Their plugs frankly suck and would not hold the weight of an underweight, week-old shrew, never mind a functional speaker - for this reason alone, I would not expect to see this idea come to fruition. @Kumar makes a good point, but we did recently acquire a speaker driver manufacturing company - who knows? Well, us I guess, but not me specifically.

      😂 love the description, some of the euro socket and plug combinations aren’t much better. round socket with devices having a smaller/thinner hexagonal plug.

      Even in the UK with our 3 pin design, outside the kitchen, the majority of uk houses have sockets towards floor level not a metre+ off the floor.

      @TJ99 Sound quality is subjective and amazing is never a word I’d associate with the Bose speakers I’ve heard in the uk. For the wide range of small bluetooth speakers around, good sound for their size/price sure, but none of them I’d consider having an amazing sound from any manufacturer. 🤷

      Apologies - I got a little negative there. I recently watched a YouTube video of an American reacting to a video about UK plugs - I guess some of the details got stuck in my head!
