Looks like a good deal

Or the same as Vex has been doing for years!

Or use Amazon.es and get it for £123 each.

It doesnt stop there, you can save £100 on the larger models up to circa £140 off.

Just looking at the Play:1's on the spanish Amazon, I'm guessing they come with European 2 Pin plugs?? Can anyone confirm?

EDIT: Cancel that, just found the cable with UK 3 pin plug from the SONOS website for £5!

Replacement plug from Sonos.

Bottom right, think they are £8

is there a downside? do u get taxed / is support still ok etc?

[Du1point8]

I think its more to do with the fact the Euro vs GBP is good in our favour.

you would need to read up on warranty but I can't see how it can catch you out.

As for import costs, the official links don't seem to suggest import duties or VAT, etc will apply from within the EU.

Have a look here for best UK/EU deals:

http://www.hotukdeals.com/search?action=search&amp...

One such ES deal:

Play 5 for €366 (£261) when its £349 in the UK
http://www.amazon.es/Sonos-PLAY-Sistema-inalá...

Playbar for €626 (£447) when its £599 in the UK
http://www.amazon.es/Sonos-PLAYBAR-altavoces-inal&...

Just check because every now and again they stop delivering to the UK for a bit.

Thanks. Those rices seem optimistic

They're published amazon prices. Not a guess.
And there's no duty payable as its all within the EU (which the UK is currently part of).

If you have Amazon prime, is it still free delivery?

[Cactussed]

Beats me?

[Brian Trizers]

No. Just tried it. Amazon.es recognizes my UK login (where I have Prime) but still tells me it'll be 8.87€ to send a Play:5 to my UK address. Might be different if I had an address in Spain, but I dont.

Still not a bad price, all in. Add £5 for a UK mains cable - or just change the plug yourself, like in the old days of the 1980s.

Just paid 479 for a playbar too, that was cheapest I could find on the bay.

Anyone got a preference for play 3s or 1s with a playbar? Not sure if the 3s i have will end up being too bassy.

Much easier to turn it down than to turn it up!
