I tried Sonos once and ran far, far away. My rule ever since has been that I buy dumb speakers and attach the networked audio device of the day. Today I'm using Wiim streamers, used to use Chromecast Audio, briefly ran an OSS stack. That's the only way to have power over companies in this scenario: I can swap out the networked bit anytime with a minimum of cost and waste.
- knallfrosch 2y agoHuawei gifted me a SonosOne when I preordered the P30. The SonosOne has no Bluetooth, the voice assistant failed to set timers and the networking was unreliable. Sold it off. I do have a SonosBeam2 now that's ARC'd on the TV. It doesn't work on WiFi (crappy engineering), but connecting an Ethernet cable is not too much to ask. In the future, I want to use dumb speakers.
