We love our Sonos system. But we’ve been asking ourselves: what if we could play music from all our favourite apps? What if we could watch a video and enjoy the sound from our speakers? What if we were really free to use our Sonos system the way we want?

We created Darlite to unlock the full potential of the Sonos system. This product is the result of our own passion for music and connected devices, an understanding of Sonos users, and countless hours developing a product we would like to have in our homes.

Play from any devices. Play music directly from any Bluetooth, AirPlay, or DLNA compatible computer, tablet or phone - even if the device/OS is unsupported by Sonos.

Darlite Features

Designing Darlite



We designed Darlite to fit perfectly with the Sonos ecosystem. Docked to a PLAY:1 or in a standalone mode, Darlite is compatible with most PLAY:1 mounts and stands with its standard 1/4”-20 threaded mounting socket. It will also be available in two colors, white and black, to match the tone of the Sonos speakers.





How Darlite works?

Only one Darlite is needed for your entire Sonos System. Darlite connects via Ethernet on the router or any Sonos device and works as a hub for the entire network. No matter where Darlite is located in your home, it will be available to use with all the Sonos speakers.

Darlite is compatible with all the Sonos products: PLAY:1, PLAY:3, PLAY:5, PLAYBAR, PLAYBASE, CONNECT & CONNECT:AMP.

Darlite adapts to your Sonos setup. It can be used docked with a PLAY:1 (via the Darlite adapter) or in a standalone mode (with the top cover).

Use your speaker without home network. It can also be used without a router via Bluetooth if only 4G or public WiFi access are available.
