I bought a pair of these to go along with my W6205 Soundbar so I have some experience working with this ecosystem. They sound great and once you get the hang of using the system is super easy to play music and stream audio too.
For first time users of this system you will need to download the Play-Fi app in order to pair the speakers to your Wi-Fi connection. (This is probably the hardest part)
To do so you will need to press and hold the Wi-Fi button and wait for two alert sounds. (bwang!....a few seconds later another bwang!) Take your finger off the button then you will want to wait a few seconds (5-15s) for the blinking light to start pulsing and then its ready to pair.
Once everything is connected you can play music to it directly via Spotify or whatever music service app.
If you have multiple devices connected to the system then you can control all the speakers through the Play-Fi app. Which my best advice here is...tap on everything. There's a bunch of features I just never noticed. When playing on one speaker you can tap on the speaker name to add/remove more or if you tap on the icon near the speaker name you can adjust the volume of each individual device. That sort of control is addicting when you mainly work from your living room. (Covid Lockdowns)
Overall, I like this speaker but I think it really shines when you have more than one. Speaking of shine....I do actually like the rear lighting. I wish I could just control it all with one app but overall its a feature that I like way more than I was expecting. (You can also turn it off).

Perfect for wireless surround and music, but bluetooth not support TWS pairing, pity
I bought a couple of W6205 mainly for Philips TAB8805 surround speakers(with DTS PLAY-FI Surround).The surround pairing is easy if you use 5Ghz wifi6 router(2.4Ghz not recommended for surround 5.1 system), and the surround effect is great after you defined the whole play-FI Surround with app.Moreover, I also tested with play-FI Stereo mode for Spotify music, the bass is strong but not too punchy, and the voice is clear, W6205 really make me the room filling sound!!after all, despite the incapable of BT stereo pairing, the DTS PLAY-FI functionality is versatile and stable, if you are looking for a speaker with fair price and great sound, W6205 is the choice!!
