Hi Marie,
My advice would be to put 2 Play 1 speakers into the kitchen area and to mount them so they are best placed for when you are sitting at the kitchen table or working in the kitchen. For the great room I would eventually use a set of Play 5 with a Sonos Sub and then again in the bedroom, depending on its size, either a set of Play 1 or Play 3 and of course you will probably want to put a Play 1 into the bathroom if possible. The only modification I would consider would be if you do regularly watch TV and want a surround setup. Assuming the TV is in the great room, I would put a Playbar with Sub there and given the size of the room, use two Play 3 players wall-mounted behind and to the side of the couch as rear surrounds.

The main part of my house is taken up with the entryway, kitchen and a great room which are around 800 to 900 square feet and very open. So I will eventually add 4 to 6 Play 1 speakers to the area which should give me wonderful sound. Then I can begin adding my bedroom and office so I will live in a sound theater!LOL Marie From: Robin Frost <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 11, 2016 2:49 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Sonos Hi, Ah and that my friend you can have with a Play:5 first or 2nd generation. As I said it does have an auxiliary input jack so have patch cord and your wish is their command. You merely select line in source in the app and you can start it playing. All you need to do is plug it into one speaker and away you go. If it’s part of a stereo pair grouping the audio will then come out of both speakers seamlessly. I hope that helps.

My bad! I want to be able to plug in a PlexTalk or Stream if possible. this is not totally essential but would be nice. do you still thin a good starting point is the Play5 or would the play bar be a better beginning?Marie From: Sieghard Weitzel <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2016 9:39 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: Sonos Just one thing I’d like to add and that is that there is a tuning option to optimize the Play 5 to a particular room. Sonos calls this “TruePlay” but if you want to do this you will need sighted help, it is not accessible if Voiceover is running. Also, FYI, while the new Play 5 has no longer a headphone jack, it is supposed to sound much better than the older ones.

Set up is a breeze and poses no problems for blind or visually impaired users no matter which model you get in my experience. Once your library is indexed by the sonos system then you could play anything you might have in terms of sound files from your computer. the only difference between first and 2nd generation play:5 for instance is the location of the button you press to initiate its detection by the system. In first gen it’s on top of the unit whereas in the newer 2nd generation it’s on the back of the unit. It’s nearly flush with the back of the unit but still detectable by touch once you know to look for it. I don’t think you’d have any trouble should you choose to try one; and the Play:5 still has the auxiliary input jack as well. I just thought I’d mention that. I hope that helps.

Also is it easy to stream from your computer over wifi? Thanks, Marie From: Robin Frost <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2016 10:27 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Sonos Hi, It is true that it hasn’t a headphone jack in the 2nd generation which to me wasn’t a huge loss as it was formerly located on the back of the unit making it difficult to access anyway. I hope that helps. Robin From: Marie <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2016 12:49 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Sonos I was just reading the reviews of the Sonos Play 5 and there were complaints that there was no output jack on this speaker? I was under the impressions that it did have a headphone jack but wonder if it was removed in the newer model. This is a real turn off for me. I guess I should have bought one earlier.
