Design

Hardware

The Sonos One features two Class-D amplifiers, a subwoofer, a tweeter, and six far-field microphones.[5]
Running on a 64-bit motherboard, it is equipped with an AC and Ethernet port on the back of the speaker and is capable of 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi connection.
When connected to the network using Ethernet, the speaker can also act as a Sonos BOOST.
