Limited inputs/ relies on TV audio output quality
Do buy the Sonos Playbase if you don't mind spending a little extra on the best product in the soundbase category. It sounds better than many competing (albeit slightly less expensive) sound bars, it's extremely easy to use, and it virtually disappears in...

The Sonos Playbase is a low-slung sound base with impeccable design and impressive sound. Its bass is even better than the Playbar's, so there's no need for a sub. Sonos' app and other speakers make it part of one of the best multiroom systems available
The wide effect needs breathing room -- unadorned walls, too, if you please. No DTS support, HDMI ports or Bluetooth. If you have a "clawfoot" TV, it may not fit on top
The Playbase adds excellent home theater and music sound to Sonos' superb multiroom music system. Just make sure your TV fits...

Abstract: Sonos Playbase beneath a TV. PHOTO: HandoutI'll be honest, I was a skeptic when I first saw the Sonos Playbase speaker system. A plastic-looking device that sits under the weight of a TV, it immediately seemed like a poor idea to me.I was surprised when i...

Amazingly big, wide sound for a box this compact, Natural, punchy bass, Does all of the great things any other Sonos speaker can, Can be upgraded to a full 5.1 system
Treble is harsh, often annoyingly so, Optical-only isn't very flexible - or even necessarily that simple, Won't work perfectly in every room
If after all of this you're left with the question of whether the PlayBase sounds better or worse than the PlayBar, the answer is that I can't tell you - and that's by design. Sonos doesn't want you to choose between the two TV speakers on sound quality...

The PlayBase is very close to being a brilliant TV speaker solution, but it falls just short.It's undeniably a huge upgrade over the sound produced by any TV, offering width, scale, dynamism and excitement that will blow your mind if that's what you're us...
Abstract: Sonos wants the real estate under your TV — literally. After trying its hand a few years ago with the Playbar, the audio stalwart is now adding another form factor to lie under your flat-panel with the Playbase.The Playbase is a departure from just about...

Ich bin der Sonos Playbase anfangs mit reichlich Skepsis ob des hohen Startpreises begegnet. Und auch nach dem ausführlichen Test bin ich weiterhin der Meinung, dass 799 Euro ein Preis ist, über den man mindestens zweimal nachdenken sollte. Fernab der hoh...
