Operation Manual

SONOS PLAY:1

Choose one of the following options:

• Using a handheld Sonos controller: Select Add a Sonos Component from the Settings menu and follow the on-screen

prompts to add this component to your Sonos system.

• Using the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC: Select Add a Sonos Component from the Manage menu and follow the

prompts to add this component to your Sonos system.

Creating a Stereo Pair

The Stereo Pair setting allows you to group two PLAY:1s, PLAY:3s or PLAY:5s in the same room to create a wider stereo

experience. In this configuration, one unit serves as the left channel and the other serves as the right channel. You cannot

create a mixed stereo pair—the Sonos components in the stereo pair must be the same.

Optimum placement information

• When creating a stereo pair, it is best to place the two Sonos components 8 to 10 feet away from each other.

• Your favorite listening position should be 8 to 12 feet from the paired Sonos components. Less distance will increase

bass, more distance will improve stereo imaging.

Using a handheld Sonos controller

Select Settings -> Room Settings.

Select a PLAY:1 to pair.

Select Create Stereo Pair, and touch Next.

Select the other PLAY:1 you wish to pair.

When prompted, press the Volume Up (+) button on the PLAY:1 you wish to use as the left channel.

Note: The Stereo Pair setting is for use with PLAY:1, PLAY:3 and PLAY:5 units only. You cannot

create a mixed stereo pair—both Sonos components in the stereo pair must be the same.
