On top of the speaker, you find the controls. They’re quite easy to use, and they offer some feedback. For example, the green light on the Sonos logo stays solid when you reach the lowest volume setting. There’s an audible cue for min and max volume as well. Also, a light on top of the speaker lets you known when voice services are enabled. You get an audible chime, and a blue light appears when you pair and connect to a device.
