Denon Home 350 vs Sonos Move

Last updated: October 29, 2026

These are not really the same size class, and that is the honest framing here. The Denon Home 350 ranks #9 of 10 powered desktop speakers by sound quality at $749; the Sonos Move ranks #30 of 117 large speakers by sound quality at $299.95.

Denon Home 350 vs Sonos Move

The case for the Denon Home 350: A large Wi-Fi smart speaker that plays loud, with lossless streaming, built in Alexa that hears you well, and app tone controls. It links with other speakers (HEOS multi-room, stereo pair with a second Home 350), which the Sonos Move cannot. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Sonos Move lacks. The catch: RTINGS measured a slightly boomy sound profile out of the box and disappointing directivity, so the sound changes noticeably off to the side of the cabinet, plus compression artifacts as it nears max volume.

The Sonos Move is the battery-powered, tougher pick. A Wi-Fi and Bluetooth portable with warm, full bodied sound, automatic room tuning and a charging base. Its battery is rated for 11 hours, while the Denon Home 350 needs an outlet. It is rated IP56, while the Denon Home 350 has no water resistance. The tradeoff: It is mono, heavy and less portable than a conventional Bluetooth speaker, while bass pumping and compression become audible at high volume.

Worth knowing: the Sonos Move is discontinued, though it still ranks #30 of 117 large speakers by sound quality, so a used unit beats most of what is still sold new. The Sonos Move’s replacement, the Sonos Move 2, is still sold new.

Buy the Denon Home 350 at $749 for a powered desktop speaker, or the Sonos Move at $299.95 for a large speaker instead.
