Sonos Digital Music System

Sonos is probably one of the best purchases I have made. OK it's a bit pricey, but worth every penny. The streaming of music is great and seamless.

This has been THE best thing we have bought in years! I actually bought it as a gift for my husband but we all fight over it, kids included! I am not really that fussed about music, don't even have an ipod, but just love this to bits. I bought him the S5 portable unit and the new handheld controller as well as the required 'bridge' that sits near the router! It took minutes to set up and as we pay £5 monthly to Napster this allows us to search for and download any music from anywhere in the world and then play it through Sonos. The sound quality is amazing and as gadgets go it is brilliant, a great icebreaker at parties as everyone can add their favourite song choices to the playlist. There are one or two small frustrations, ie it won't allow you to do the odd little thing here and there that really should be standard but Sonos are working on this, oh and everything we have is in white which REALLY annoys me as it stands out like a sore thumb wherever we put it. Yep, three guesses ...they NOW do it in black! Typical!! All of this aside it has been THE best purchase we have made in ages. Honestly don't miss out!!

Sonos is exactly what I needed. A plug and play solution that allows me to stream all my digital music to multiple zones aroound my house. As the blurb suggests, it is incredibly easy to set up (unlike other similar systems) and the user interface is totally intuitive. The fact that it uses it's own mesh based wireless network helps eradicate problems with signal loss, and also means that as you ad more zones to your system the wireless coverage improves - the signal is bounced rather than sent from a single start point. Now that I have it working with Napster, i have access to more music than I caould listen to in a lifetime.
