My play:1 fell and now has a lot of static.
- any suggestions for DIY repair?
- my system has a playbar, sub-gen2 and another play:1 for surrounds. What can I purchase to replace the poorly performing play:1?

Find another used Play:1.
If you want to replace both PLAY:1s, the current equivalent (and better, I’m told) is the Sonos Era 100. However, if you’re after Atmos, and have a Sonos Arc, the Sonos Era 300s are best.
Just to quickly mention (so there’s perhaps no misunderstanding here) if the soundbar in use here is the old Sonos Playbar, as indicated, then a pair of Era 100s/300s are not compatible with that Playbar. See the footnotes in this link…

The cheapest option is to pick up a used/refurbished Play:1.

Refurbished (from the Sonos store) One SLs might also be an option.
