Amazingly simple to integrate and setup.
I have been an avid Bose guy for years...when I had the opportunity to change things up, I decided on Sonos. This decision was based at first on the ease of use of the Sonos One and how I could connect multiple rooms with the touch of a button...for years, I spent tons of money on Bose and anytime I wanted to upgrade to the next version, I just couldn’t justify the cost. With the advent of streaming music and having the control of these systems with my phone, I chose Sonos. I have a Sonos One in almost every one including outside that I installed in a gazebo...see pictures. I decided on this setup because will we be building out a pool soon, and wanted to wait on installing hard wired speakers until then. Since this review is on the new Sonos Amp...I’ll discuss that setup. I have a 75in Samsung 4K TV with the Sonos Playbar...I wanted surround sound, so I got the Amp and two Yamaha 6.5in in ceiling speakers...I installed the Amp and the speakers and am blown away with the sound!! Other than going into the attic, installation was as simple as a new Sonos One. I had it setup outside of the attic in 10-15 minutes. I have included a couple pics of what I did. So happy on this purchase and when I get the pool, I’ll be getting another Amp and a couple more Yamaha speakers:-)
