What I am disappointed with the majority of these devices is the lack ofstereo imagery in a single device. JBL had a Soundstage that was about thesize of a cereal bowl and its speakers were around the perimeter.No matterwhere you sat in relation to this speaker you heard stereo.----- Original Message -----From: "Joshua Hendrickson" <[email protected]>

Bose is not average in sound quality.  I have a bose revolve plus
speaker that I bought myself as a Christmas present a couple years
ago.  I never used it all that much until last week.  The sound
especially for music and audio dramas is amazing.  It has enough bass
to have a very full sound and is very detailed.  I live at home, so I
couldn't have multiple speakers in different rooms of our house even
if I wanted to.  I'm glad that Richard is very happy with his sonos
speakers.  I've never heard one of those speakers.  I've also got a
google home and that smart speaker has a very good sound as well.

For one noone knows how much a Sonos headphone, if it ever comes out, will

cost. Second, a Sonos headset will be more than just a Bluetooth headset,it

will be part of a multi-room system which allows you to easily channel the
aduio from any music you are playing whether it's from an online service,

from your iOS device playing to Sonos via Airplay or whether it's theaudiofrom your TV if it is connected to the Sonos system. Third I would hazardaguess and say that if nd when a Sonos headset comes out, it will be justas

good with respect to sound quality as the rest of their speakers so it
really is premature to say you would go Bose over Apple or Sonos when you

don't know either the quality or the price point of a Sonos headset. IfindBose headsets just as overpriced as those from Apple for what they are andIknow a few people who have relatively expensive Bose bluetooth speakersand

to my ear they are average in sound quality, but that is just my opinion.

Hell I wouldn’t I’d go bose over apple and sonos for headphones.

Simply because I think they do better and are more affordable.

As Richard said, Sonos unfortunately is not yet making a headset whichactsas its own Sonos player/room so to speak. I have been waiting for years,but

so far I am told Sonos is about listening out loud and as a family/social
group, but I am still hopeful that one day Sonos will have their own
high-end headset with built-in Alexa etc.

I would never spend the price for something like th enew Apple headset,$549

US, but I would spend this for a Sonos headset.

Yes we bought a pair of Sonos SL as well with the sonos beam. The sound
quality  is absolutely amazing. The app is very accessible.

OK, since I started a thread complaining about the response I receivedwhen

I asked Sonos support a couple of questions, now that I have heard their
product I wanted to give a positive comment.

We found that a local store had the Sonos 1 and SL in stock, plus the new
Arc soundbar.
We got to hear the soundbar in the store and it is pretty amazing!

Their display with the Sonos 1 and SL had been fried from a electricalsurgeand wasn’t fixed, but based on the sound quality of the soundbar and allthe

great reviews, we went ahead and bought 3 Sonos SL speakers.
We decided we did not need the voice services like Google or Alexa.
Well, the setup was pretty easy.
And the sound is very impressive for the size they are.
Once we get the soundbar for the TV, we will have a great setup in our two
home offices, the kitchen and the living room.

So, I am now a happy camper.
