Question about how to use Sonos in a network

Heya! So I like the idea with a soundbar that is NOT a bluetooth-device. I’m looking for a sound-device that works like my Chromecast-device = everyone in my network should be able to quickly and easy cast whatever they want to the device. Is this how Sonos One works?

I understand you need the app for the first setup, but when the device is connected to my network I guess the Sonos One will pop-up to anyone in my network as a Speaker? 


Is this how Sonos Work?

 

Thank you!

SONOS is designed to be controlled by the SONOS App, however, some SONOS players support Bluetooth and some Apps, such as Spotify, can directly play through SONOS without using Bluetooth.

Right, but if I want to use Spotify to one of my Sono-speakers I dont need the Sono-app?

Sonos One is not a soundbar. Have you looked at any of the info on Sonos’ website, such as from the menu: Learn/How Sonos works?

Yes: once set up the Sonos devices should be visible to anyone on your network.
