SONOS USER GUIDE
• For a single Play:5 speaker we recommend positioning the speaker horizontally, enabling stereo sound
over a wide sound stage. (A single Play:5 speaker positioned in vertical mode is a mono speaker—there
is no stereo separation.)
• Place the Play:5 across the room from where you'll be listening (at or close to your ear height for best
results).
• For stereo pair placement information, see Stereo pairs.
• The Play:5 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.
Speaker mounts and stands
For wall mount kits or stands, tailored to perfectly fit your Sonos products, see Accessories on our website.
