Anyone Here Using A Sonos System?
 

We had a multi-room Sonos System set-up in pretty much every room of our house a few months ago and so far it's been incredible. We've been using Rhapsody and Sirius since we had everything installed but I was wondering if anyone else here has any recommendations for other poviders that are integrated into the Sonos system. Likes/dislikes of those providers?

i dont use speakers...too many unexpected loud noises

know what i mean?

Nope, note sure what you mean.

Thinking about getting that myself :thumbsup

How are the speakers (quality)?

Nice, but its too expensive to justify buying.

We only have one of the portable units (S5) that has the built in speakers. I have to say that the sound is actually pretty impressive for a unit that size.

The rest of the rooms in the house are using in-wall or in-ceiling Paradigm speakers powered by either the ZP120 or the ZP90 depending on the application.

Overall the Sonos system is slick as hell. Very user friendly interface and has been extremely reliable from day one! I love the system and the current music services we're using but was hoping to hear some feedback from other Sonos users that may be using services other than Rhapsody or Sirius.

Love the system, been using it for 3 years now. We have separate zones set up for the living room, the patio and the garage. It's awesome.... We bought separate amplifiers and speakers (higher quality) and we run the sound (digital stream) from the Sonos system through the amplifiers.

We also use Rhapsody and we registered for a free Pandora radio account on Sonos.com as well. If you're not familiar with Pandora, you select, or search for an artist and then you get all your favorite tracks from that artist and others that fit the same profile or type of music. The cool thing about it is you can tweak the play list by indicating which songs / artists you like or dislike by hitting a thumbs up, or thumbs down icon as the song plays.

Very, very cool......

I've heard some great things about Pandora, I'll have to check them out. Thanks for the feedback!

Pandora is oK, but use Grooveshark instead.

Pandora gives you very limited control of what you can do. Grooveshark lets you line-up albums, playlists, etc -- and has a Pandora-like feature(called Radio), which actually seems to be better at finding good music than Pandora.

I guess the Sonos is great, if you like hearing music everywhere you go in your house.

I just signed-up for an account and added Pandora to our Sonos system and you're right. Pandora is pretty sweet. I really like the custom "radio station" concept! Very cool indeed!

pandora is the best if you can get that fired up on there and the sound is good its probably money well spent. MY blueray player has a pandora ap so I can run it through my home stereo.

Listening to it right now. Pandora is fully integrated into the Sonos system. :)
