its ok not exactly what I request when the rep from Geek Squad visited me with a home installation. I wanted an amp that plays disc and had a usb plug. What I got, it NOT what I requested from the sales rep. I called him 3 times, he said he would get back to me and to this he has NOT. Poor representation for Best Buy

If using for TV or movies, get an AV receiver instead at this price point, the dialogue will be clearer and better heard at lower volumes. I will preface by saying I'm well versed at audio equipment and an enthusiast in this segment. I bought this amp to attempt to replace a dying old Cambridge Audio receiver and my intention was to use it for music listening through Spotify and for TV/movie use.
While music sounded good (Bowers and Wilkins 707 S2 speakers), watching TV was difficult at lower volumes, the dialogue was lost. Given that this amp has an HDMI input, it's use is marketed for tv/music/movies but it falls quite short in the audio fidelity quality to be $600 when compared to an AV receiver that also has music streaming capabilities, among many other things (which can be had for less than $600).
As soon as I hooked up my old receiver I was able to hear much more dialogue again without having to increase the volume, the clarity was back. I attribute this to the Class D amplifier the Sonos amp uses, while many AV receivers use the superior (though less efficient) Class AB, which excels in audio definition and fidelity over Class D. This was starkly apparent to me. Even with budget speakers you WILL experience the same.

Simple install, some setup and amazing performance. Paired with Polk Atrium 6 outdoor speakers plus my legacy CD player. Exactly what I wanted and sound amazing

I love Sonos and have a bunch of their products but I thought I was buying something else and found out this is just to connect wired speakers from other brands and connected to the Sonos family. I was under the impression that I would connect Wi-Fi speakers into the network. My bad. I returned it.
