Pros

The sound quality of the one's versus the original 1's is, in my opinion,noticeably better and certainly worth the extra $30-$50 per speaker. Even at low volume, the sound is very good. Sound is outstanding.

    The only down side of alexa integration is that some features like alexa calling dropin and the alexa skype skill are not yet supported by sonos but im sure its only a matter of time until these features get incorporated
