| Opinions on Bluesound vs Sonos. @mahler123 That does not sound encouraging about the Bluesound updates. That is one of the primary issues with Sonos! I do plan on getting a separate amp with the Node if I go with Bluesound. Would love to know if Bluesound is any better than So... | |
| Opinions on Bluesound vs Sonos. @zlone I don't plan on sticking with Sonos. Too many problems for too many years. This current issue has been going on for two months and Sonos has made no commitment to fix it. That kind of disregard for their customers is the last straw. My pla... | |
| Opinions on Bluesound vs Sonos. After doing a little research I do not think the Powernode is an option for me. It very well may be a better amp than the Sonos Amp for the types of speakers the Powernode is intended to drive. However, Bluesound have not (and apparently will ... | |
| Opinions on Bluesound vs Sonos. Thanks. One of the purposes that the Sonos Amp serves is that it is incredibly discrete. One unit. Easy to hide. This is important because those are the terms set by my wife to put the speakers in our fairly formal living room. So I would prefer ... | |
| Alternative to Sonos. Update: Continued to have problems with the old Sonos Connect. Got a Wiim for my main system and everything works perfectly. Also, today several speakers dropped out of my Sonos system. When I went to connect the Sonos iPhone app forced an updat... | |
| Just discovering i/o. Hmmmm. Just looked up the dynamic range measurements on the CD and they are dismal. Among the lowest I've ever seen. They are a little better on the hi-res download but not much. The DR is excellent on the Blu-Ray Atmos TrueHD recording but I hav... | |
| London Grammar? Thanks for the thoughts guys. I'm still sorting out what I think about this band. For the record I don't mind 'mood' type music. I don't even mind some techno and electronic music. I don't go as far as 'ambient' type music though. I like bands l... | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. Question: When I use Qobuz within the Wiim app is it still using AirPlay with its limit of 16/44? | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. I consider myself fortunate in that I hear no difference whatsoever between CD quality and hi-res so that won't be an issue for me. | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. Got the Wiim Mini about 30 minutes ago. Easy set up. Works great. So far no glitches or dropouts. Time will tell. | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. I have ordered the WiiM Mini. We'll see. In the mean time I should probably try running this old Sonos Connect with the S1 app but I'm just too lazy to fool with it anymore. | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. Thanks guys. To answer a few questions: @jbuhl I do not have any other Sonos Ports or Sonos Connects. I have a Sonos Amp and a bunch of speakers. They all work well now except for this old Connect. @dougsat I had an older Apple TV which was glit... | |
| Alternative to Sonos. Update: I have continued to have problems with the Sonos Connect. I have tried (daisy chain) wiring it to the Sonos Amp in the other room. No difference whatsoever. Long intermittent pauses in the music. Very frustrating. I was ready to chalk it... | |
| Amp hum. Update on right channel amp hum. Was changing the hookups on my Sonos Connect into my Oppo (which I use for DAC and CD) and I noticed a little Oppo USB device which I think is a sort of Bluetooth or digital signal receiver that I had plugged in a... | |
| Alternative to Sonos. Thanks @sunshdw . For @bjesien ’s benefit: My wireless network had no wi-fi extenders of plug-in units. Just a modem/router from the local ISP. I don’t know if that is an actual proper wireless system but it met Sonos’ stated requirements. I c... |
