What brand of speakers are people moving to

So what brand of speakers are people moving to now that sonos have become completely useless crap? JBL seems like quality, the speakers atleast sound much much better than anything sonos has to offer, i am personally thinking of something along those lines. Looking for reccomendations, and who better to ask than former sonos gear owners and user 😊

I replaced my Sonos Roam with a Mitsubishi Dialtone D160, it sounds great!

 Do you use it in your bathroom?

I replaced 2 roams in my bathroom with 2 echo dots and battery packs they work great and the battery packs last about 8 weeks before charging thanks to the on /off button 👍

bought them on a sale cost £100 for both speakers and batteries 😊

below is the battery

 Those look cool.  Solves my whole house system missing the bathroom!

If you want full hd music in the bathroom you would need to get the echo main speakers so would double the cost, not needed for me as I use mine mainly for audiobooks 😜

 I’m using a combo of Echo Gen 4 stereo pairs & WiiM products as a whole house system.  Covers all rooms except the bathroom.  Great for parties.

i have only replaced my roams so far, plugged a WiiM ultra into my 5 and use that plus Alexa to play music around my house 

sono+ widget does volume and grouping 👍

I could use the main Sonos app as I never updated but been weaning myself off it since discovering WiiM 

saved money by repurposing the Sonos speakers 👍
