See what you can do with Alexa on your Speaker
SONOS Move are incredibly powerful high-fidelity speakers with great capability and performance. I only wish I had known these few things before a painful learning curve. Much of this has probably already been said here, but here’s my take.
1. SONOS speakers are meant to be played via streaming over WI-FI. What that means is, using the SONOS app you select all of your streaming services that you subscribe to (Amazon Music, Apple, Spotify, SoundCloud, Mixcloud, etc.) and your voice assistance service (eg. Alexa) if you wish and the speakers are controlled through the app. Yes, the speakers themselves have volume control and the standard pause, skip and back features. Note, no tuning of balance, treble or bass except through the app when connected through WI-FI. Edit: note that SONOS Move has an auto tuning feature available when you leave it in listening mode.
2. You can stream a Bluetooth enable device to the SONOS Move speaker, but you are limited to playing it through one speaker because unlike JBL, the speakers themselves do not connect to one another over Bluetooth. Again, this is a WI-FI over Bluetooth preferential that SONOS makes.
3. Airplay2 from an iPhone will automatically make the SONOS Move speakers as an option to play your Apple Music to. That’s great because then you get the benefit of using the stereo pair when using two SONOS Move speakers, which you don’t over Bluetooth. Confused yet?
4. The SONOS app is actually VERY EASY to use even though you need to connect your streaming services initially in the app. There is EQ and Volume control through the app as well as a number of settings and tutorials even.
At first I was disappointed with some of these findings that I had to uncover on my own. And I almost packed them up for return. But after using them for the last 48-hours and enjoying the portability and amazing sound details, I’m thinking I’m keeping the pair of speakers. I like how they feel, sound and look.
Note: Initially I wanted speakers to play records on my Bluetooth turntable. Unfortunately, due to the limitations of the SONOS Move speakers not connecting to one another via Bluetooth, only one speaker can be connected to my turntable. However, the sound quality from the one speaker is so amazing that it seriously doesn’t even matter - get over it stereo loving self.

Everything I hoped it would be
Sound quality awesome lots of bass! Wireless capability amazing in areas in my backyard where my cell phone has trouble connecting to the wireless home Netwerk the speaker connects without any problem at all! My big concern was would it work with my Sonos system that was installed 10 years ago? The answer is yes! If you’re like me and your home was built 10 years ago with the initial Sonos products controlled by the Sonos one app on your phone I had concerns buying a new product if it would integrate. This one does. First you download the new Sonos to app to your phone and register the new device out of the box. Then you reset the device from your phone and downgrade it from Sonos to to Sonos one. About a 10 minute process and it effortlessly joined the rest of my son on speaker group and really has proven to be quite weather resistant and extremely portable very happy with the purchase.
