Following our largest beta test to date over the last several months, we’ve studied the performance across all kinds of home environments around the world to ensure the new WiFi-enabled setup meets our high standards.

● Homes where the WiFi signal doesn’t reach every room in which you may want to put a speaker
● Sonos 3.1 and 5.1 home theater setups still require a wired connection; a standalone PLAYBAR does not

Sonos Boost
Notably, Sonos has also been working on an even more powerful wireless accessory as an alternative to the BRIDGE called the SONOS BOOST. Available later this year for $99, the BOOST offers enterprise-grade wireless capabilities to serve even the most challenging home WiFi environments.
