About

Premium sound
Backed by ten custom-built drivers, Playbase delivers rich, cinematic sound for all your movies, TV shows, sports, and music.

Speech enhancement
Playbase delivers crisp, clear dialogue. Need even more clarity? Turn on Speech Enhancement.

Night sound
Watching late at night and don’t want to disturb the whole house? Turn on Night Sound.

Rock solid support
Playbase securely supports TVs up to 77 lbs (35 kg). Which covers just about any TV that comes with its own stand.

What’s on your TV is only as good as what your TV is on.
Ten amplified internal drivers–six mid-range, three tweeters, and one woofer–replace the limited output of your TV's built-in speakers with deeper booms, crystal clear whispers, and huge waves of sound.

Everything sounds better on Playbase.
Movies, sports, TV shows, gaming – the slim, low profile Playbase adds dynamic, pulse-pounding sound to whatever’s playing when your TV’s on. And streams your favourite music when it’s off.

Grows to 5.1 with zero drama.
Playbase is just the beginning of the ultimate home theatre experience. Add a Sonos Sub for soul-shaking bass. Want full surround sound? Use a pair of Sonos speakers for rear channels.

An off-the-wall approach to better TV sound.
Typical soundbars work best when wall-mounted directly below a TV. Truth is, most TVs end up on stands and furniture – exactly what Playbase was created for. Its low profile design practically disappears beneath your TV, yet it fills your entire viewing room with epic home cinema audio.

The wireless home sound system that gets better over time.
Easily connect Sonos speakers in different rooms over WiFi to create a home sound system that brings every room and everyone together. Regular software updates means your product is constantly improving.

Dreams are weird

They're like your brain's way of saying: you know what the world really needs? Nonsensical story lines that nobody questions and flying cars.

And even though we know they're absolutely bonkers and possess zero relevance whatsoever, we waste no time telling people all about them.

Nobody wants to hear it. You end up sounding like a toddler trying to explain the latest episode of Game of Thrones.

The only dream worth talking about is Martin Luther's. Fact.

Anyhoo, we had a dream we sold out by noon today and spent the rest of our time hanging out with the Red Hot Chili Peppers at Home Affairs. Crazy, huh?
