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. The natural design allows the Sonos One to easy blend into any type of setting. But when the volume is up, there is no hiding where that amazing sounds quality is coming from! Sonos makes great devices and having the connectivity ability to Alexa is an added benefit!

  2. I like the versatility of being able to play the same song in multiple rooms or limit it to just one.

  3. I like the extensive capabilities of the SONOS app. Once a few people have it downloaded, the playlist never ceases to be extraordinary.

  4. I have a play:1 and love the sound quality, but the best part is you can continue to add to the system over time by adding more speakers throughout your house.

  5. Was waiting for the Apple HomePod, but I think the best idea would be from getting 2 Sonos One speakers for great stereo sound + Alexa.

  6. Alexa…play my morning playlist…but with that rich sound!!!

    I think the best feature is the integration of this amazing sounding speaker into my life, the ability to request my music to be played hands free while I am cooking…bathing…whatever I want!!

  7. For the size of the speaker, the Sonos sounds amazing. I love that it’s a multifunctional speaker with a sleek and modern design. Looks great in any room and the fact that It’s Wi-Fi and not Bluetooth connected makes the speaker better than many competitors on the market.

  8. My fave feature is the Alexa built in and if that is not good enough, the multi-room compatible feature is outstanding as well. đŸ™‚

  9. I like the sound, the design, the versatility. Also like that it can form a stereo pair with a second Sonos One, providing true sound separation, left and right channels reproduced as they were actually meant to be, instead of via some simulated stereo separation effect. I also like that you can control all speakers via voice, and group them together for whole home/room-by-room playback. I also think the price is great!

  10. I love that it’s small and I can put it anywhere. Having a baby. It’s great that it can be out of reach and play great music

  11. My favourite feature is that it is Multi-room compatible so I can hear great sound wherever I am in the house!

  12. Having alexa built in, along with the unreal sound quality. Sonos has made a loud entrance into the speaker market

  13. I really love Sonos speakers for numerous reasons, I might not have enough space and words to express myself . To mention few of my favourite features, I can talk about embedded microphones and Amazon Alexa, giving me a chance to ask anything, such as the weather, to control lights, to play certain songs and more. I love the multi-room audio as well! I can go on and on but lastly, I would like to say, if I will be lucky enough to win the Sonos One, I will be infinitely grateful to Best-Buy given how much these speakers would make me happy and would make my everyday tasks, such as browsing, easier!
