The newest SONOS PLAY:5 wireless speaker is on sale for $472 shipped (Reg. $499)

Amazon offers the SONOS PLAY:5 Wireless Speaker (latest version) in black for $471.68 shipped. This is the first notable discount that we’ve seen on this speaker since it was released in the fall. It typically retails for $499 and today’s deal is the lowest that Amazon has ever sold it for.

The PLAY:5 is the latest creation to come out of SONOS with a completely redesigned internal speaker system. It has six “smartly synchronized” drivers that work in conjunction with Trueplay for a sound “that’s true to the music.” Like the rest of SONOS’ speaker lineup, it is controlled via the free iOS/Android app that provides access to Spotify, Pandora, and many more including Apple Music. On the back, you’ll find a 3.5mm input, which is perfect for streaming alternative sources like a turntable to the rest of your SONOS setup.

We positively reviewed the PLAY:5 when it was released a few months back, calling it a “very fine all-in-one wireless speaker with impressive premium sound.” Amazon customers largely agree, leaving a collective 4.6/5 star rating.

Step up to the PLAY:5; the powerfully smart speaker that fine-tunes its sound to bring you all the energy and emotion the artist packed into the original recording. Music that’s pure, ferocious, tasty and true. Every detail of the PLAY:5 has been meticulously engineered to make listening to digital music simpler, more immersive and more satisfying. It combines six smartly synchronized drivers with innovative, room-adapting TRUEPLAY tuning to deliver a brilliantly exact reproduction of the music you love.
