My original system has good size speakers and a small sub woofer; and the PLAY:5 fills the room with rich sound just as well is not better then the larger system

6 hrs per day in our great room with no issues.

Sounds terrific now and the room has a better feel all around as the 5 seems to be really transparent, can’t tell where the sound is emu sting from.

Oh, the play 1s sound really great in my kitchen as well, far better than they did straining to fill a two story plus loft great room

Not cheap but it has great room filling sound.

but WOW.. fills the room with fantastic highs and lows, great bass and a great investment into your entertainment system.

Though I have it in a smallish-sized room, it's easy to see (hear?) that it could easily fill a much larger room with great music

Adding to the system with the additon, SONOS AMP, 2x Play5 for bedroom, 2x Play1 for master bath, 2x Play3 for family/great room, 2x Play5 for

There is no need for such a setup in my TV room, where I already have all my surround sound components, but in other rooms, for example, my living room, which has a fireplace and where we particularly like to sit when not watching TV, this item is ideal

This beauty fills up the room with wonderful sound

Initially, I tried my old iPad 2 and that kept saying there was too much background noise, even though the room was dead quiet

The sound through my speakers is amazing, my sub adds to the rest of my speakers so I can dial up the treble a bit to brighten the room

We bought the PLAY:5 to replace a PLAY:3 in our great room

Great sound, very powerful, fills room with highs and lowsEasy to set upGreat iPhone app, easy to learnWorks great to play the turntable through the entire houseDoes not cut out or skip (did once but resolved by restarting my router)Every room can be controlled and use separately or togetherUsed as my alarm clock in the bedroom, very customizable and has never failed meAll you guests will be impressedCons-none other than wanting to buy speakers for every room of the house

You can really crank it up too and just fill a room with loud while you enjoy some loud
