Exciting is too tame a word for this contest: the Sonos One is the speaker so many people across Canada covet. It’s smart! It’s has amazing sound! More than one can easily be paired for stereo sound. And … you can win one in this contest! Yes that is correct, Best Buy is giving away 4 prizes of a Sonos One speaker (I have 3 black and one white at my desk to give away!)

What is so special about a Sonos One

Sonos has been around for a few years now, long enough to have earned its place as a dependable, well crafted, great sounding, wireless Wi-Fi home speaker. Talk to an owner of a Sonos speaker and they will go on and on about the things they love about them. Okay, even many non-owners will do that. I’ve noticed that many, many people have Sonos on their wish-lists: so a contest like this is perfect!

This is the year of voice activation, and the Sonos One has that built right in: ask Alexa anything. That is just one of the fantastic features you’ll enjoy with this speaker.  Here are some more:

  • Room filling sound. CNET called the Sonos One the first smart speaker that “sounds great with music.” (I laughed when I read that the first time! Why else would you want a speaker in your home?)
  • Multi-room compatible: fill your home with synchronized music where the Sonos in the bedroom plays the same music as the Sonos in the living room … the kitchen … the basement….
  • Stereo sound: use 2 Sonos One speakers for great stereo sound.
  • You choose the music source: the Sonos app will connect with most music services. Use Spotify, or Google Play, or Apple Music!

On top of a great design and the great sound, you can control it with your voice! “Alexa! Turn up the volume.” That would be my favourite command. You can also try some of the ever-growing Alexa skills to get the latest news flash, check Air Canada flight times and much, much more.

HOW TO ENTER

Entering this contest is easy but you can only enter once. In a comment below this article, tell us what you like most about the Sonos One. Is it the sound, the design, the versatility … or something I have not mentioned in this article? That’s all you need to do for a valid contest entry.

  1. I love that it is multi-room compatible. My aunt has 3 in her house, and she absolutely loves them because of that. When I was there, I absolutely love it too and loved the sound that comes out of them!!!

  2. We have multiple Sonos speakers in our house. I think the addition of Alexa makes this a no brainer.

  3. I love how everyone can cue up their own song from Apple Music or Spotify, and not need to disconnect and reconnect for each device.

  4. The sound quality is great with Sonos, but the idea of having Alexa built-in puts it well ahead of any other option.

  5. I love that it is multi-room compatible. My aunt has 3 in her house, and she absolutely loves them because of that. When I was there, I absolutely love it too and loved the sound that comes out of them!!!

  6. As a recent convert to Alex (previously google home) i am loving my echo dot and its integration with my other smart home devices. I intend on purchasing an Ecobee Thermostat 4 which includes Alexa. The only remaining obvious choice is the Sonos one since it includes Alexa integration which will enable to me to control Alexa from my room while also enjoying the excellent quality of Sonos. My brother is a die-hard Sonos fan and he’s gotten me to listen to his speakers and i totally love them. If i win this or not, i am getting one by the end of the year for sure (now two would be nice for a stereo setup). I love Sonos and i love Alexa!

  7. The most incredible thing about the Sonos One is something that’s actually pretty subtle – the install procedure. It’s not immediately apparent from the advertising, which focuses on all of the “sexy” features, but the install process is incredibly easy. Once the Sonos is removed from its very smart packaging system, you only need a phone app and a few minutes to get the speakers working. Once the first one is installed, the additional speakers are even faster, and they find each other on their own! Great tech – just needs Google Home compatibility ASAP!

  8. I have a new born baby so I love the ability to play lullabies hands free, since it already feels like I’m multitasking to the max.

  9. The fact that it’s versatile, for it’s ability to connect with approved applications for unparalleled sound!

  10. I love that Sonos can play the same music in every room – a Sonos in the living room and kitchen playing the same music when you have guest over.

  11. The syncing feature is the main reason I need this. The sound of Sonos speakers always satisfies as well.

  12. Other than the seamless spotify integration, the sound quality is pretty much unmatched in its class. Near audiophile quality in a compact package!
