If you can PM me, then I pick up your email address to be able to reply with the order form.

I can't send a file through the PM system.

Hi VEX,

Great that you're doing this again for everyone! Is this likely to be something that you'll carry on with into the future or not? Not particularly in a position to buy at the minute, but I have every intention of slowly building a system once I'm moved out and back at work. However, if these prices won't keep coming back, then I might have to be tempted!

I might be a bit late to the party but I am seriously considering getting a Playbar, sub and 2 Play 1's for my new lounge.

If I was to order all of the above (with a bridge) what level of discount are we talking?


Another kind of unrelated question, If I was to purchase an extra power lead, could I just unplug a play 1 and take it out into the garden/garage/kitchen (providing still covered by wifi) and use it as a stand alone speaker when not in use as the full surround?

Or would this mean re-adjusting it each time and having to re-configure?

It's not difficult to reconfigure off the sonos app. Yes it will work as a standalone and is good if you don't want to get too much out of it being you are only using one speaker and not a pair.

Saying that I just picked up a pair of ugo speakers for when I'm out and about (bit further than just the garden) and they do the job very well considering they are Bluetooth.

Sidekick, I am not publishing discounts here as per my agreement with Sonos for the Group Buy.

But if you PM me, I can send you an order form with all the prices in it.

Bugger - wish I'd seen this before as I've just been out and spent £1200 of a soundbar and sub combo. All set up and sounds pretty good to me - hardest part was trying to work out how to get my Panny GT30 to access hotel mode.
I've spent my limit for this month but will want a couple of component speakers for other rooms, either 1s or 3s so Vex are you still open for a couple more orders later? Can also help depress me seeing how much I could have saved. May also want the brackets for wall mounting the soundbar.

Final thing to do is set up my new 3tb NAS drive to store my I-tunes on.

Thought I'd share the (almost) finished look of the soundbar and tv. Really pleased with it! I have two play;1s upstairs which I think I'll put downstairs for "movie night" as it were, and pair them with the soundbar, and I definitely think a sub is in order at some point in the future - just not now (I've just finished redoing an entire house, so funds are somewhat tight!). Obviously this room isn't finished - that white socket will be gloss black, and the fireplace has a chrome surround. But you get the idea!
