A stereo pair of Sonos play 1s will destroy ceiling mounted mono speakers.


Who installs in ceiling mono speakers on resi applications ? NOBODY.

You either don’t know what you are talking about and/or you trolling. A pair of in ceiling speaker are going to fill the room with sound so much better than some play1s.

Sonos are easy money jobs but are a bad value for the end users.

I don’t climb in attics brah. You don’t know me.

You can't say that about any AVR which is obsolete in 2 years


The things on a AVR that are obsolete in a couple years are feature SONOS doesn’t even have.

I’m not anti Sonos, I’ll sell a couple 100,000 of it this year. I just understand the pros and cons. In a thread where the OP starts off by saying NO SONOS you can’t help but come in a derail the thread with walls of ignorant text.

Like I said you are either trolling and/or don’t know what you are talking about. Either way you should STFU


Have a nice day.

is this the thread where people tell us they can tell the difference in platinum coated helium filled cables and a coat hanger ? My favorite article that I source to audiophiles

quote:

Further, when music was played through the coat hanger wire, we were asked if what we heard sounded good to us. All agreed that what was heard sounded excellent, however, when A-B tests occured, it was impossible to determine which sounded best the majority of the time and which wire was in use.

Because they can't resell them 5 years into the future at the same price they bought them for?

What's your definition of 'value'?

Because Sonos doesn't need them.

I was responding to someone who said Sonos wasn't a real audio system

Struck a little too close to home did I?

Care to tell me where I'm wrong instead of just telling me you don't pull wire through attics and getting defensive?
