Sonos Five White
Sonos's big speaker: six amplifiers, six drivers and a sealed 6.3 kg cabinet. No microphone and no Bluetooth — it is made for listening to music properly, over the network, with a line-in for the turntable.
Why people like it
- Sealed cabinet — no bass port: it removes reverberation, echo and distortion.
- 3.5 mm line-in — where the turntable or the old hi-fi goes, and from there to the whole house.
- Stereo pair — two Fives split the channels and fill a large room.
- No microphones — it listens to nothing, which is also why there is no voice control.
