According to our WiFi speaker expert
1The SONOS PLAY:3 lets you fill a living room or large bedroom with sound. This speaker has 3 drivers and a bass radiator. This means your favorite music won't just sound detailed, but powerful as well. Connect multiple SONOS speakers via WiFi to create a stereo or multi-room setup. Operate every speaker from your smartphone or tablet with the SONOS app. Did you set up speakers in several rooms? Your friends or family can simply listen to your playlist with you, regardless of where they are in the house.
Please note: Sonos products aren't compatible with the 5Ghz band, so always make sure your WiFi supports 2.4Ghz before purchasing a Sonos product.

It has been on my wish list for a long time and it fully lives up to my (high) expectations. Next step is a playbar and then I can finally ritually burn that cord spaghetti at the TV (I won't because that's not allowed because of the environment ;)

I ordered the play 3 twice. One for the living room and one for the dining room/open kitchen. Sounds perfect, linked together in stereo

I wanted to try the Sonos because I was not completely satisfied with the Squeezebox range. I have been using the Logitech Squeezebox Menuet (connected to the stereo) and Radio for about three years. The sound quality of the Squeezebox devices is good, but the ease of use is not. The updates of the server, the firmware of the devices and the music library regularly showed problems and hiccups that took time to resolve. This usually happens at unwanted moments, for example when you receive people.
The Sonos is easier to install, the apps for iPad and Android phones work perfectly, the family members spontaneously use the possibilities of the Sonos where that was not the case with the Squeezebox. I think the Sonos is more stable because it uses a simple shared directory while the Squeezebox devices communicate with a server that you have to install somewhere (in my case on a NAS). As a result, there are fewer "moving parts". The controller apps are more easily kept up-to-date by the online app stores, the Sonos software makes managing the music library a no-brainer. The software also looks slicker. This contrasts with the tinkering with the Squeezebox server. I've done a few tests with the range of the Sonos bridge at home, nothing but praise here, it works amazingly well.
The quality of the S3 is good, a good radio, better than the Squeezebox radio, but not comparable (obviously) with a full stereo with separate speakers. My next purchase will probably be the Sonos amplifier with separate B&W speakers for the living room.
I can't think of any negatives.
