Sonos jumps ahead yet again with Sonos One, a wireless, multi-room streaming smart speaker equipped with Amazon Alexa voice control. Now, instead of running back and forth to change songs, or fumbling with your smart phone to load playlists, lower the volume, etc., you can do it all by voice alone. Tell her what you want to play, where you want to play it. What's more, you can access Alexa through your Sonos One to do everything else Alexa can do.

Pick your playlist, jack the volume and set a mood while you cook. Get the news, check scores or ask questions while in the shower. Request a bedtime lullaby when putting the little ones to sleep, or let your party guests call out karaoke tracks on the fly – all with simple voice commands. The Sonos One set-up is a breeze, and connects with Amazon Alexa via your Wi-Fi in seconds.

The Sonos One may be little, but the Sonos sound is big. And rich. And crisp. And room-filling. We’ve been a preferred, one-stop Sonos store since the company began and we applaud the move to voice-activated technology. Now the world’s favorite wireless speaker is also the world’s smartest wireless speaker – you hear it and it hears you back. Good stuff.
