Ive already go an Apple Homepod. I guess that the same too :lol:
Not really. The Fives 3 x 4” mid-woofers add up to the equivalent of roughly 7” per speaker. Most measurements I’ve seen show them hitting 30hz, Napier Lopez measured the old Play:5 model getting down to 25hz in an old review on TNW.

Here's some measurements of other Sonos speakers:

I live and half hour drive from Dynaudio and there’s a lot of speakers I would opt for before even considering any Dynaudio.
Kali for one.

Pray elaborate.
I am looking at the Dynaudio focus 50s for a bedroom solution. Other than the LS60 and the Buchardts, I havent seen anything else that comes close for the price point and form factor and the features.

^must be a big bedroom for the 50’s!
These are a pretty amazing piece of technology for a bedroom. Literally just these and a mobile phone to control it and you’ve got a whole system.

I’ve got a pair of Dynaudio XD20s that I picked up second hand. They are quite nice but I’ve still got a streaming amplifier as a source running out the pre-outs to the XD20s.

An all in one solution would be great as my wife is an interior designer :p

Debating between the Focus 30s and 50s.
Price difference is not huge.
Room is big but would be fine with either.
Keen to get rid of a giant butler amp/DAC/streamer - keep it simple at least in one setup.

The 50s would be better for action movies or some huge mansion living room. But then again, why not? :D
