Sonos – Wireless Sound System
If you haven’t heard about Sonos in the past the best way to describe it is that it’s a music system that allows you to connect up to 42 zones, allowing you to play music throughout your house from a central music collection – stored on a computer or a NAS drive connected to your network.
Designed around the impression of a single speaker, the unit actually has a 5-driver speaker system, including two tweeters, two mid-range drivers and a built-in subwoofer.
Coming in white and silver, like other elements in the Sonos range, the silver speaker grill “is” the front of the unit and the only controls to be found are the volume up and down and mute button on the top.
It’s super easy to set up; the iPhone app discovers any Sonos hardware, which you name and then have access to from the main menu. You choose music, either from a location on the network (like a computer, or in my case an Apple Time Capsule) or from streaming services like Pandora, Napster and Last.FM.
