Connector panel

Threaded mount 1/4" / 20-thread	Integrated mounting socket so it can be wall-mounted (bracket not included). See Speaker mounts and stands for more information.
Ethernet port	Use the supplied Ethernet cable if you want to connect to a router, computer, or network-attached storage (NAS) device (optional).
AC power (mains) input	Use only the supplied power cord (using a third-party power cord will void your warranty). Insert the power cord firmly until it is flush with the speaker.

Select a location

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum enjoyment, we have a few guidelines:

The Play:1 is designed to work well even when placed next to a wall or other surface. For optimum performance, maintaining more than 1" (2.5 cm) clearance around the back of the unit is recommended.
The Play:1 is humidity-resistant so you can use it in the bathroom; however it is not water-resistant so don’t position it near water or leave it outside during a rain storm.

Set it up

See Getting started when you’re ready to set up your speaker.

Speaker mounts and stands

The Play:1 has a standard 1/4"-20 threaded mounting socket. If desired, you can easily wall mount it using a suitable bracket (not included). Simply choose a location that’s close to an electrical outlet (power cord length is 2m), taking care to avoid heat, steam, dripping water or hidden wiring, and follow the instructions included with the wall mount kit. You can hang it right side up (control buttons on top) or upside down (control buttons on the bottom).

Note:Be sure the wall mount bracket you purchase will support at least 8 lb (3.6 kg) and has a 1/4"-20 threaded post.

For wall mount kits or stands, tailored to perfectly fit your Sonos products, see Accessories on our website. Follow the instructions in the kit.
