Marie,
All Sonos packaging is very Apple based in its look and feel, I’m quite certain
this is deliberate.
All boxes have pull out tabs usually covered by sticky packing tape, so, you
will need to either pull that off, damaging your box, or, take a sharp knife to

Hi Sieghard, Apple's AirPlay licensing expressly prohibits its use in
multi-room systems, so Sonos isn't allowed to include it. This is also why it
has been removed in newer versions of Bose SoundTouch.
I would imagine that if Apple ever gets real about this, Sonos will be one of
the first to ju

Hi Marie,
I got two Play 5 speakers a few weeks ago and had to call Sonos to find out how
to open the box. Don't feel bad.
Place the box with the handle facing up. If you run your hands down both the
left and right sides of the box, you will find a lock on each side near the
bottom. The locks

Hi Sieghard.
What I really would like on sonos products would be an optical input. This is
really a problem for me. I sometimes need to use airplay to send audio to
sonos, and this is not really possible. Have you figured out a solution for
that.
Best regards Annie.

There are two unofficial apps in the App Store to do jus that, and, you never
