![]() ![]() A pair of Play:5s are too big to stick on my bathroom countertops and don’t have voice control. For the same price as two Moves, I could buy 4 Ones, stick two in the bedroom and two in the bathroom, but the the sound quality just isn’t there for me. On a side note, isn’t the Move really a replacement for the Play:3 which is now discontinued?įor me personally, the Ones don’t have the same audio range and at the end of they day, sound quality is the most important factor. And, as smaller units, will also satisfy a need where a Move is too large. At less than half the price of a Move, people will certainly still opt for them. There is still plenty of market for Ones and One SLs. I do get what you’re saying to a certain degree, but I really hope this isn’t Sonos’ perspective. If Denon could fix their HEOS limitations and awful app, could also be serious competition. Amazon is going full steam ahead with it’s Echo line and it is only a matter of time before they catch up to Sonos in the realm of connected (and portable) audio. To that, I can only say that if they don’t, someone else will, and is what they should truly be concerned with. So, paraphrasing here, you’re basically saying that if Sonos created the “perfect” product with the Move, they would be competing with themselves (it would be “near perfect” if it bonded with a Sub). I hope you reconsider returning your Move’s as they meet the intended purposes for which they were designed (portability) and more. ![]() The Move was designed to fill a consumer request of a portable speaker in the Sonos product line not replace existing products. I think Sonos did an excellent job of meeting that request or as some would say “ listening to the voice of the consumer”. Furthermore, you don’t want products that compete against one another. Price point aside it’s just not good marketing to put all your eggs in one basket. Separate revenue streams are important to any company versus having a single revenue stream in one product that supposedly meets every conceive able need. □ Sonos IMO would experience a decline in sales of those products in favor of the Move. Negating the public release notes and FAQ’a I mentioned earlier think what would happen if consumers decided to purchase Move’s instead of the Sonos One’s and Sonos One SL’s as stand-alone, stereo pair and/or surround speakers which incidentally, do bond with the Sub. ![]() The latter two IMO would be most vulnerable to loss revenue. Sonos already has the Beam, Playbar, Playbase, Sonos Amp, Play 5, Sonos One and Sonos One SL that integrate with the Sub. Sonos like any other company wants it’s products to be innovation and integrate smoothly with existing products where practical but not at the expense of loss revenue (i.e profit). However, I’d like you to consider your request allowing the Move to pair with the Sub from a marketing point of view. As you already know the reasons why the Move will not bond with a sub via the “public” release notes and FAQ’s (as indicated in your original post) I’ll not rehash that information. Sorry to hear that you may be considering returning your Move’s. In order to achieve this, I had to buy a Play:5 to pair with the Sub. The Sub is still in close proximity and sounds great with the additional Play:5 but I don’t really need the extra Play:5 and this kind of use case is exactly why some people will buy Moves instead of fixed-location Ones or Plays. I bought the Moves so I could “Move” them in the bathroom when I shower and get ready without having to unplug/plug power cables. In my case, I want a pair of Moves+Sub in my bedroom/bathroom with the Sub under the bed. It’s easy enough to turn off the Sub temporarily if I want to take the Move(s) in another room (or outside) and the Sub isn’t nearby. I understand the reasoning of the Move being portable, but if I want one or more Moves paired with a Sub while they’re in their normal location, you should let me. I shouldn’t be forced to buy another Sub-compatible speaker in order to pair with a Sub then group them all. Please provide a software update that allows Sonus Move to pair with a Sonus Sub. ![]()
