re: CAD falling out of love with Sonos

are you using this system in your home?

yes

I've seen amazon reviews saying the speakers hum, buzz or give up after a couple of months. what is your experience?

---

I have not experienced this at all. That being said I have scrutinized them looking for this closely, but I am a bit of an audiophile, and I've never heard any buzz or other distortion whether ambient or in the background of music or speech

are you saying just go with 20s and 10s throughout your house?

---

yea, and that's what I did. 20s in larger rooms or rooms where you specifically want stronger bass, and I think I have two of the 10s in smaller rooms. There is a difference in base output, but I can say I have never thought to myself that the 10s were weak.

what about surround? any 5.1 options available with this set?

---

Not at this point, but pairing two of them 20s in stereo mode is legit.

do they 'stereo pair' like sonos?

---

yes

quote:

is there an available sub?

---

not at this point, but It's a product line that Harman is not done with yet.

one thing i really want is to use UdPnP to stream my music from a master server at the house since everything i have is FLAC. how is this at connecting to a local shared NAS?

---

Can't really answer this one as I haven't looked into those types of connections at all. I'm sure there is a way to though, possibly through the adapt?

One last thing I think may appeal to you is that the SDK is open source with the intentional hope that developers will program connected home uses for it.
