Sonos Bundle 250

 

Sonos released an app last year turning iPhones and iPod touches into very capable remote controls for the company's excellent wireless home audio system. It was, therefore, only a matter of time before Sonos issued an update to the standard remote...

Seamless integration of personal music libraries and Web music services. High-quality wireless audio streaming. Touch-screen remote is well-designed, fast, and intuitive

No video or photo support. Very expensive for a product that doesn't include speakers

While it's not a toy for those with tight budgets, the well-executed but pricey Sonos Bundle 250 is worth every penny. It's the most seamless way to get your music into every room of the house.

Wow ... it didn't take long!

My plan had been to demo the Sonos system in my home for a few weeks under the no questions asked Sonos 30 return policy and then make a decision. It took about an hour before I knew that this was a keeper. Setup is easy peasy ... sound is excellent...

Easy to use, easy to set up, great sound, good customer service

Ok. As I type this I am listening to music streaming from my desktop. Earlier, I was listening to music from my wife's computer. We have three zones set up -- one stand-alone player, one 120 driving speakers, and the last, the 90, hooked into a...

Worth Every Penny!

Have owned this now for 4 months and absolutely love Sonos. Did a lot of research before buying and this system definitely delivers. The new hand-held controller is much nicer and easier to use than the previous version (I demoed the previous unit at...

Exceeded Expectations - Cool Factor is High

I am really happy with the purchase of this Sonos equipment. Over the past year, I increasingly became interested in jumping into a wireless household music system that can bridge my interest in audio and technology. After a fair amount of research,...

Expensive and worth it

I have been reviewing solutions to create a wireless music system throughout my house for about 1 to 2 years. Repeatedly, this one popped up as the most expensive and highest rated. Now I bought it (and another 2 ZP120, another controller, and two...

Sonos got it right!

I am a very sophisticated user so getting something as easy to set up and use as a Sonos was not originally part of my purchase criteria. But since I'm not the only user I had to go beyond my own considerations when making a purchase. This review is...

Sonos system -- SoYeses!

I didn't buy this package exactly, but I bought two ZP90s, one S5, one CR200 Controller, and a BR100 Zonebridge (which I don't actually use). If you contact Sonos directly, they will make you a custom package and give you a discount and free shipping...

Incredible high quality customer service

As others have commented, I find the interface and ease of use of the Sonos system to be truly outstanding. I converted over from a system of iTunes and three Apple AirPort Express devices. I am big Apple fan in general but for music distribution I...

Product Specifications

The Sonos Bundle 250 gives you everything you need to wirelessly play music in two rooms of your house. And with SonosNet's superior wireless range, no room is out of reach. Just connect the ZonePlayer 90 (ZP90) to your home theater or stereo and place the ZonePlayer 120 (ZP120) with built-in amplifier in any room where you want music. Connect one ZonePlayer or ZoneBridge (sold separately) to your network and all the rest work wirelessly. For the ultimate in convenience, choose the Sonos Bundle 250 with Loudspeakers and you'll also have a pair of powerful bookshelf speakers to attach to your ZP120. To start playing music, just grab the full-color wireless Controller and simply pick a room, pick a song and touch play. With the Controller in hand you'll have instant access to your entire music library, plus thousands of Internet radio stations, and the most popular online music services to play all over the house. When you want to play more music in more rooms, just add ZonePlayers and Controllers to your heart's content. The Sonos ZonePlayer 120 is amplified, wireless, compact, and convenient. With its state-of-the-art digital amplifier, the ZP120 works anywhere you've ever dreamed of having music - the bedroom, the bathroom or even the backyard. All you have to do is plug it in, connect your choice of speakers and you've got a room filled with music. And with the ZP120's superior wireless range, music lovers really can play all the music they love, all over the house. The design of the ZP120 is both compact and cool so you can feel free to hide it away or leave it out for all to see. The Sonos ZonePlayer 90 lets you play all the music you want, all over your house, on all the audio equipment you already own - your home theater receiver, stereo system, powered speakers, and more. Just connect the ZP90 to any amplified audio device in any room and it's instantly part of the wireless Sonos system. The ZP90's digital and analog outputs deliver superior sound to every room. And with the ZP90's superior wireless range, no room is out of reach. The ZP90 is super small, so it will fit just about anywhere. The Sonos Controller gives you instant, wireless access to all your music and all your rooms at the touch of a finger. The full-color VGA display, ultra-responsive touch screen and dedicated buttons make it a joy to use. And it's 100% dedicated to multi-room music control - pick it up or touch the screen and it's ready to go. With the Controller in hand you can quickly find and play music from your personal music library, Internet radio and the most popular online music services. Browse through albums and stations with a flick of a finger or search for your favorites by typing on the on-screen keyboard. Then, simply touch to play. You can play the same song in every room or different songs in different rooms with ease. SonosNet ensures that every Controller works wirelessly, all over the house, so you don't have to run back and forth to your computer. Instead, you can choose exactly what to play and where to play it from anywhere - sitting on the couch or cooking in the kitchen. Controllers aren't tied to a specific ZonePlayer, so you can use any Controller to control the music - and the volume - in all your rooms. And there's practically no limit to how many Controllers you can have - one for every room, floor or music lover in your house. The Sonos Controller also includes a Charging Cradle so it's always powered up and easy to find.
