Trendy Sonos comes to Europe: Digital tunes around the house
Sonos is generally
seen as the Aston Martin/caviar/crown jewels of digital music streaming. That’s
expensive, to you and me.
But it does look very good and it’s a snap to set-up.
Recently US-only, now Sonos is here – well, the Netherlands – but that’s close
enough to buy its very well-received Digital Music System. It’s introductory
bundle, at £899, comprises two ZonePlayers and a wireless, full-colour LCD
remote.
The ZonePlayers are essentially networked (and wireless) amplifiers that you connect a couple of speakers to in each room you want sound in. Boot the PC, load the CD, pick the music folders you want the hub to access and that's it. The rest is done via the wireless remote. I like it. I'd like it even more though if it was a few hundred quid - maybe £400 - cheaper. Or free.
