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.

WHAT YOU CAN WIN

At the end of the contest we will draw 4 winners from all eligible entries. Three winners will get a black Sonos One, and one winner will get a white Sonos One.

This contest runs from March 9th 2018 until March 23rd 2018.

Remember you can only enter once, so make it count by telling us which feature is your favourite. Of course, you should share this post with family and friends. If one of them wins you can negotiate a time share: 2 weeks at your home, 2 weeks at theirs … repeat!

Good Luck!

  2. Heard the Sonos speakers at a friend’s house. Unbelievable great sound. Loved it. Now they have Alexa. Excellent! Saving money to buy the first speakers.

  6. Amazing flexibility, expandability, sound quality, design, and most of all the AI built in Sonos One simply makes this product an unbeatable feat of engineering and quality!

  10. “Limitless Control of Superb Elegance” is how I would describe the Sonos One. With the new addition of Alexa voice control to the already awesome Play 1 speaker, it opens up a world of endless possibilities to superb sound quality through the new aesthetically pleasing elegant design. Not only can you now control the One with endless room filled superb music through the simple command of your voice; but it also opens up the world of autonomous Smart Home features to allow control of your smart lighting, plugs, sensors, locks, thermostats and other smart appliances compatible with Alexa, not to mention the possibility of Alexa calling and messaging. With free continuous updating of the latest Sonos features and skills along with the continuous growing list of Alexa supported applications and appliances, the Sonos One truly offers you limitless control with a perfect pitch.

  11. Versatility. The number of the music services Sonos is compatible with and that the Sonos One, like its older sibling is humidity resistant so is comfortable in the kitchen or bathroom.

  16. I don’t know how many times I have played music out of my Play One and just melted away. The sound quality is absolutely phenomenal. The added ability to be able to do Alexa commands is just an amazing feature.

  17. Simply the best whole home music system you can get. We purchased our first SONOS system over 10 years ago, and every year we add to the system. Our last addition was the PLAY BAR for our entertainment room. Our next purchase will be the new PLAY ONE with voice control. The entire system works great, we have never had a single problem. SONOS is high quality. You can not go wrong with any purchase of SONOS!

  18. I love the simplicity of how easy it is to set up the speaker, as well, love the sound quality of the speaker – it sounds better than Bose!

  21. Love the size and shape, perfect for travelling to the cabin with (if one had a cabin lol) or taking to the beach

  24. I like how easy it is to set up and how convenient it is to use. The sound quality is also amazing

  25. Simple portability and high quality are just a couple of qualities that make the Sonos speaker an amazing product

  26. Controlling the speakers from multiple devices, now my wife & I can fight over what we listen to 😉

  27. I love that I can connect it to Google Play because that’s where I listen to music most of the time.

  28. Alexa voice assistant, speaker design and audio quality all combine for a pretty awesome, compact speaker.

  29. I like the quality of the sound out of such a small speaker.

    Also love that I can listen to SiriusXM and Spotify anywhere in my home and control with my smartphone.

  30. Great sounds, portability to other rooms if needed, and Alexa are just a few of my favorite things.

  31. Its pretty hard to narrow it down to just one feature when its loaded with so many great features. The fact that its smart and wireless is probably my favorite feature. I can finally have a speaker that I can take with me around the house, to my backyard, shower, wherever really and have my music on demand at anytime!
    I have the Google Home but this is definitely an essential upgrade!

  33. My brother has Sonos One speakers and I live the sound quality and the ease of use. I was sceptical, but Alexa is kind of handy, and pkayingnmusic from my phone is super easy (with Spotify). I also like that I can just tell it to play CBC Radio 1 and it does it. To raise or lower the volume I just tell it (no more buttons to program, no remotes that get lost, no batteries that need replacing).

  35. I love the Alexa features this speaker has, as I am blind and could really use the voice assistant features.

  38. The sound is incredible. I do not own one but I heard it while at Best Buy in Florida last week. The best Buy outlet was huge and yet the sound seemed to carry through the store.
    The range Is very very impressive.

  43. Multi-room compatible- this is something very interesting.
    Room filling sound- this is what i live for!!!

  45. My friend has one. The base on the Sonos speaker is crazy good. If I am to win, I would like the black one. Thanks Martin!
