Apesbrain Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 It's nice (onboard phono preamp!) but not equivalent to Sonos/Bluesound as far as providing the basis of a whole-house networked system. Link to comment
speavler Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 these seem like different product categories altogether. Link to comment
The Computer Audiophile Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I have The Three from Klipsch and really like it. I'll be writing something up shortly. It uses the DTS Play-Fi platform. I've never really thought of it as a Sonos competitor, but I guess it could be possible. Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
