Please see my review of the entire Sonos Playbar 5.1 system. You should read it--you REALLY should. I'm SO glad I went with Sonos after more than ONE YEAR of steady research on 5.1 playbar systems. I use the Sonos One's as rear speakers in my 5.1 surround setup.

I am a long time fan of and listener to Sonos products, I have four speakers. This Sonos One is my newest, it sounds as good (maybe better) than my other Play 1 's and the added feature of having Alexa built in makes my entire system so much easier to use.

  Quality sound with convenience of Alexa! Win, Win!

Speaker sounds great and setup was a breeze. I only wish there was a way to keep the microphone enabled and still turn off the status light. It's a small light but enough to be a bit bothersome in a bedroom at night.

Now that they are connected and functioning, I'm happy with the Sonos One/Gen 2 speakers. I have them configured as rear surround speakers. I was initially disappointed, because the day they arrived, Sonos was experiencing a major server outage (unbeknownst to me), so i could not get the speakers...
