Today, Sonos announced a group of new products for easy home listening. Sonos will be releasing one amp along with three new architecture speakers, including an in-wall set, an in-ceiling set, and an outdoor set. Put these four new items together, and users have a well-rounded audio experience. Let’s take a look.
Sonos offers a range of products all designed to seamless fit together to give supreme sound, and to create your ultimate home speaker setup. All speakers and amps give users ultimate control across their homes without hassle. Their new releases are no different.
Sonos Amp:
The Sonos Amp () is a necessary piece of equipment if you’re looking to build a crisp sound system. With 125 watts per channel, the amp sufficiently powers two speakers and a subwoofer. The amp was designed to fit on a shelf or easily hung on a wall. That is an important point for users who want to keep a clean, clutter-less setup.
The Sonos amp is a versatile media player that offers several ways to play. Users can connect to WiFi and play music from more than 80 music streaming services including Apple Music, Spotify, and Pandora. They can link up with the Sonos App via Bluetooth, which allows you to play music in a single room, or different songs in several rooms. Users can connect using AirPlay, or even the analog RCA output to play vinyl off a record player. Lastly, you can even can opt for a hands-free setup and command playlists and songs with Amazon Echo and Dot.
But the amp isn’t strictly a music player. Using an HDMI with an adapter, connect the amp to the TV. This will create an immersive surround sound system for movies, TV, and video games.
Architecture speakers:
The amp comes with architectural speakers. These speakers come in three different styles. The in-wall () and in-ceiling () styles are the ultimate space-savers and give a clean, finished aesthetic. As the name suggests, these speakers fit directly into the frame of your home. These speakers do not come with a speaker box, so you should fit them directly into the wall or ceiling. While the final product hides those pesky, dangling wires, it does require installation.
The architectural outdoor speakers () are sturdy, and can handle humidity, rain, sun, salt, freezing temperatures, and other climate conditions. The outside speakers are designed to be hung up high. It’s for optimal reach and sound.
All three sets of architectural speakers have Sonos TruePlay speaker tuning. This crafty bit of technology allows the speakers to scan the acoustics of the room they are placed in. Then, they adjust sound according to the space. Each speaker will actually manipulate the high and low frequencies via the tweeter and subwoofer of the speaker to create the ideal sound for the space. Even without TruePlay, each set of speakers offers an excellent range of frequencies to provide rich, powerful, crisp and natural sound.
