If need them, this is the speaker

 

Great sound quality and normally works great. I've had some problems when I try to use two or more of these on my network (maybe a bandwidth issue?). A little difficult to set up, but now the are exactly what I wanted.

Save your money

 

Poor interface, sound and network speed just to name a few. I thought Sony had better quality than this. It sounds like a cheap Sony walkman from the 80's. Most of the time it skips or has a 15 second delay. What a piece of trash. :-(

Too few devices supported

 

This speaker came free with a blu-ray player we bought. It works great with the player, but that's about it. I use a Mac computer, my husband uses Windows XP and I have a Droid phone. None of these are compatible with the speaker. It is really annoying...

Sound, convenience

limited usage

A Work in Progress

 

I own the NS-300 and noticed that the reviews here carry the same themes as on other sites such as Amazon. Many customers writing poor reviews are disappointed that they can not use their Mac, iPhone, or iPod with this product as one would expect. If...

DLNA and UPnP compatible

Simply the wrong product for an Apple customer

Sigh if you're a Mac user

 

I love the idea of the Home Share systems and connecting multiple audio equipment to your wireless network, but sadly it's a big headache to set the thing up because I use a Mac.

Small + mobile

You have to jump through hoops to use it if you're a Mac user

No AirPlay support limits the use

 

I have two of the SA-NS300 I got with the STR-DN1020 AVR. The homeshare works great but still needs some work and features. The part that kills the homeshare the most is the iPhone app. The iPhone app does not allow playing of music content from iPhone...

Size, homeshare

No AirPlay support, iPhone App is very limited use

Awesome

 

Finally, a speaker that is small enough to place in any room, and I don't need an entire theater system to power it. Just plug it into an electrical outlet anywhere in your house and you can control the music being played at any time from your phone....

placing the speaker anywhere in the house, iphone app is very convenient

setup was a bit tricky on a mac

Sony SA-NS300

 

The sound quality is quite good for a small unit (it is probably smaller than it looks), and it delivers 360 all round sound as it promises. They look good and

Difficult to set up. Even harder if you have a macbook pro. The free app from Sony is rubbish compared with similar apps such as the one used with iTunes. I have 2 of these and a Sony Home Theater system and getting them all to work together is very...
