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.

Good Luck!
I have owned an original Sonos One and I LOVED the wireless capabilities and how I could use it in a different room! I it had Alexa, it would allow it to do even more without me having to use my phone 🙂
I love my Sonos system!
Gone are the days when your music or hi-fi system was restricted to one room and tethered by cables.
I listening my entire music collection anywhere in my home by Sonos speakers available in all rooms in my home.
Sonos in my office too.
I can now stream a music from a range of devices – smartphone, laptop, NAS drive – to multiple speakers around the home using a wireless connection.
Sonos continues to lead the way with its long-established and well-developed system.
Its amazing gadgets!!!
Amazing sound in such a small package!
I like that it is so portable and versatile!
My favourite thing about the speaker is that it sounds great!
Sonos make an amazing product that has now been taken to the next level with Amazon Alexa incorporated into it. Of the similar products in this category Sonos blow them away!
In a bit to automate my house more and more, I’m using smart devices like this to help with automations. Alexa and Sonos are useful for interactions and even notifications. Would love to have the speaker announce things like the time as I need to go, the door opening, someone arriving, and so on. At the moment, these are only available in my devices and just needs a voice!
I love the idea of having this amazing sound through out my entire house.
i like the clear sound
The versatility
The technology is amazing. I hope it has a small learning curve as I am having difficulty keeping up with the technology.
I like both the sound quality and the fact that it has Alexa. Nice review.
Sound quality is awesome and the ability to play your muisc through out the house or different songs in different rooms is great. Id love one for the back yard.
I like the sound the most
You can’t go wrong with any Sonos product. This one is just COOL!
I love the sound on all SONOS products, but the Alexa integration (and hopefully Siri/airplay2 integration later in the year) is what excites me about the SONOS One.
Love the sound quality, both high and low frequency.
Multiroom is pretty cool, the fact you can play around music only where desired
Anything with amazing sound is a must in my books!
Portable… check
Sound… check
Wireless… check
Voice control… check
What more can you ask for?
If I can only pick one feature……. the built in Alexa I guess. It will be easy to use for those in the house that are technology challenged. I love the multi room capabilities though too! I could be working around the house an not miss a beat of my book or favourite tunes.
I love the sound quality and the fact that it is a smart speaker!
Such a sleek design!
Great sound coupled with the convenience of Alexa makes for the perfect device in my kitchen and family room when I’m entertaining family and friends!
Sound and versatility is the best.
The fact that it connects to top music services and the reported quality of the sound.
By far the best sound quality and ease of use of any wireless system out there!
Alexa integration.
I love the sleek, minimalist design.
I want to try out Alexa to play different styles of music and to control what is playing in different rooms.
The ease of attaining wireless, multi-room, amazing quality sound!
I love the combination of sleek, minimalistic design and seamless Alexa integration.
Love the sound quality for sure
Love the sound and versatility
Simple audio freedom…
Music is everything the best speaker the best sound you can fill your home with synchronized music with Sonos One.
The versatility of these speakers, having a strong bass while still effectively playing the mid- and high-levels. As well, the ability to create a total home sound system just sounds incredible!
class-leading sound quality for a wireless speaker of this price and size.
Impressive sound from a compact speaker. I like the ability of adding on and expanding the system throughout the house
In addition to the sound, I love the beautiful design of the speaker!
I really en joyeux the sound quality!
*enjoy
The ability to have high quality music that never ends and doesn’t require you to play DJ all day. The Sonos system was always my top pick before and now with the addition of popular personal assistance platforms, the Sonos is unstoppable!
the amazing sound – room filling sound
Well Martin,
to be honest, I don’t know much beyond what i have read and seen in promo videos. I like the idea of owning a Sonos One and testing its limitations myself. I enjoy the idea of Multi-room compatibility the best, out of the listed features and specs.
I like the sound quality!
The sound quality, the multi-room set ups, & the ability to expand the collection with play5 as well as the sound bar and subs they offer. Complete solution for audio, whole home.
Sonos with Alexa is amazing!
Design, quality and technology all in one great package.
The thing I love th most is the versatility of being able to use it with Alexa and as a speaker for music. Its amazing!
Wi-fi steaming, not Bluetooth.
