sleepybeauty 18 Report post Posted September 9, 2013 Hi oldskool, the Playbar sounds OK without the SONOS SUB (esp. for movies)? I also interested to know where to get the Playbar under 1K leh. Hehe.I bought my Play 5 late last year via Amazon (need to go via forwarder). Confirm - It's dual voltage (no need transformer). hi MLTR,the soundbar is definitely better with the sub, although i find it abit pricey... the bf has been tryg to pyscho me to get the sub... the soundbar in general is pretty good already but if u are particular abt the low bass sounds... the sub is definitely a must-get! was tryg to find a cheaper alternative but don't think the samsung one is good enough though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLTR 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2013 Thanks sleepybeauty for the feedback. Yeah, the SUB is pricy but certainly good to have! Thanks oldskool for sharing initial review. FYI - When I bought my Play 5 from Amazon, it came with the free bridge. I bio very long (waited for promotion, did price homework as Sonos are not cheap) before taking the plunge. Haha. Cheers!

Cheers! i just search on AMAZON and it's going for USD399 for the PLAY 5! too bad they don't shipped to spore lo.. and im not sure if it's still worth it to have it shipped over to spore via the forwarder... just worried that shipping costs too high and what about warranty issues?BTW, anyone keen for group buy for the SONOS soundbar? PM me! Edited September 9, 2013 by sleepybeauty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldskool 2 Report post Posted September 9, 2013 hey greg, mltr, sleepybeauty,do u guys know if with a playbar connected directly to my router, does a separate play 3 needs to be connected via ethernet cable for them to work together? can this sync take place wirelessly? without a bridge.cheers!

sleepybeauty 18 Report post Posted September 9, 2013 a very sad piece of news for those who are looking to buy the PLAY 3 or PLAY 5... there's no more FREE BRIDGE after the COMEX show yesterday.. i just verified with parisilk and harvey norman. they say the free bridge was given by the agent and after the show, they had to return it back to them.. thus they are unable to offer me the same deal today .. sob sob... i guess i shall have to wait for the next PC fair to get it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MLTR 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2013 Wow! Suddenly this has become a Sonos club. Haha! Hi oldskool, my 0.00002 cents (don't flame me if I am wrong hah).As long as a Sonos component (in this case your Playbar) is connected to the router, it acts like a bridge and the Play 3 can then be moved to the rear (for surround sound effect). The Playbar and Play 3 can be paired and made to "talk" to each other (wirelessly) by setting up and controlling the Sonos app.From Sonos forum:Question: I have just purchased a Sonos Playbar which I love, I want to turn the Playbar into a 5.1 system, so what else do I need to buy, at present my Playbar is connected to my wifi router, any help would be great, the thing I am most confused about is the Bridge, do I actually need it to connect the SUB to and to connect the Play3 speakers, thanks in advance, Mark.Answer: A minimum of one Sonos unit must be wired. Since your Playbar is wired you don't need a Bridge. As for making a 5.1 system, you'd want a SUB and a pair of Play:3s. The Playbar will talk directly to its satellites wirelessly.HTH.Cheers!
