Sonos Connect (wireless music, radio, podcast stream) White (Electronics)

Customer Review

Update 1 from the spring 2015:
I moved. In the new apartment I made sure that my NAS server (ie the thing on which the ripped music is stored as FLAC files) depends via network cable to the Sonos Connect. Has proved very successful. WLAN but sometimes goes to his knees, LAN is 10 times faster and always there. The Sonos Bridge I ticked. The connection to the PC (using the program to rip CDs) now goes on my mains with devolo. Bombig.

Update 2:
The increase over the ribs of course streaming. I booked a subscription at HiFi music service Quobuz. Monthly costs money, but who have almost everything there, special, or weird things. And integrates seamlessly with the Sonos app on my smartphone. It's cool: I read somewhere a positive review of a new CD. Search term in the app type. And seconds later, the thing plays on my investment. In Super Quality.

End of update. Now the "old" part:

So, my first recommendation is minded to listen to music no longer by CD players, but only ripped (FLAC).

First reason: massive increase operability, flexibility, lightning-fast search.
Second reason: the player also works as an Internet radio with thousands of stations in great sound.
Third reason: with the right equipment you have much better music quality.
The only real drawback: the fins is costly. Special care is needed in the ID tags, otherwise later accesses the search into the void.

My second recommendation is: Sonos!

Reason: I had ripped my entire CD collection and heard about the competition Player Logitech Squeezebox. Complicated installation, constant errors, crashes, incorrect updates of this player have long robbed me of the nerve, until I threw it and switched to Sonos. Conclusion: the installation takes no more days but minutes. Crashes: no longer 300 but one.
I can not rewire the server, so my wireless player. For this purpose I recommend the Sonos Bridge. Which provides an exclusive combination that will work regardless of the quality of the rest of the network always super. As a control panel I have purchased a used cheap smartphone.

On the subject of music quality:

Confirm how many tests will be influenced less by these players but massively from the digital to analog converter. I have excellent experiences with the VDAC II of Musical Fidelity, supported by the power company VPSU. Small inconspicuous casket at a low price, with a huge performance. I own a high-end facility and claim to be able to assess the (although "quality" to a large extent a matter of taste is). You have to get something even better probably spend 10 times for the player and / or the transformer. Who does not want to get a super good and super convenient system with Sonos + VDAC.
