Should I buy another play 5 or a new play sub?

Hi guys.
I have a friend coming from Mexico and he could bring a "gift" since, in Brazil, we cant buy the Sonos products.
I have already own a playbar and a play 5. I live in a small apartment (80m2 or 861 ft2) and I want to add another sonos to the environment.
Which should I buy: another play 5 or the first sub?
Regards

    Depends on whether you have the first generation PLAY:5 or the second generation. If you have the second, I'd say get another one of those, so you can set up surround sound with your PLAYBAR. If it's a first generation, I'd say get a SUB.

    An easy to tell the Play 5's generation is to look at the back, Gen 1 has an input and a headphone jack, the Gen 2 only has the input.

    I'd say the Play 5 (if you have Gen 2) too, set them as surrounds for TV and switch to Full mode for music and you'll be very happy. Invite your buddy back later to bring a Sub. 🙂
