HELLO, I CURRENTLY HAVE THE OLD SONOS AMP AND THE COMPRESSED MUSIC SOUNDS TERRIBLE/LOW. IS THIS NEW AMP CAPABLE OF MAKING THE COMPRESSED MUSIC SOUND ANY BETTER? null

To my knowledge, this Sonos amp does not contain DACs. Instead, many of the streaming music apps offer “hi-fi” and “master” level uncompressed streams. My FLAC files as well as Tidal streams sound exceptional with my very efficient Klipsch towers, less so with the DefTech patio speakers.

The new Sonos Amp is much more powerful than the Connect:Amp. If you feel that the volume is not what you should be getting out of your speakers then the additional power (125 watts per channel on Amp compared to 55 per channel on Connect:Amp) will make a big difference!
