When the beautiful but HiFi zero partner of one of our associates walked into the shop, picked up the Sonos control and said " So this is where the music comes from" - we knew that there was a new note of control harmony being established in our product range. Within seconds she was streaming a music selection of her particular yearning off Rhapsody. She had never seen the Controller before. Or bothered picking any thing up in our shop ... but the Sonos interface had her tuned in within seconds

For years we've been telling people why Sonos don't make an iPod dock. You already have the music on your computer! You put it there to get it onto your iPod. Thats great for your music, you can access it directly, but what about the music on your friends iPod? With the rise of iPhone, its now very likely your friend has their music collection in their pocket. So how can they share the love? with the new Sonos wireless iPod dock.

Actually we don't have one of these yet ... Sonos are incredibly secretive, even more so than Apple, when it comes to hiding their products from the outside world prior to official release. I did everything short of waterboard and electrocute the Australian distributor and he still wouldn't talk ...

The Play3 is a recent addition to Sonos that squarely attacks the Bose Wave radio at its price point. This product has quite exceptional quality and utility for a small room or bedside sound system.

This is the Sonos box for connection to an existing system, be it a stereo or home theatre. It is a small music streaming unit that has preamp analogue out along with coax and optical digital output connectivity. Thus it hooks Sonos into a high quality amp/speaker combination or a home theatre system. Great fun for opening up Sonos music services through an existing system.

This is the amplified Sonos box that can be directly connected to a pair of loudspeakers. Probably the single most popular piece of Sonos for its versatility, there are houses in MJelbourne with 30 of these spread around the residence.

Now for official release as Sonos does a Valentines day massacre on those complex wired contrivances that have been the dinosaurs of the surround market for the last twenty years.

Now off the secret list .. nothing spells the US military industrial complex as much as a CE manufacturer that makes you sign confidentiality agreements before they let you in to see it on its release evening.
