Do you love your speaker system but find it sometimes lacking? Maybe your speakers are adequate when you’re just listening in the house or watching TV, but they’re not strong enough if you want to move the entertaining outside. If you have any of these problems but don’t want to buy an entire new speaker system, than this Sonos product might be your solution, but you will pay for the convenience.
This Sonos Connect:AMP can be a great way to bring more power to any speaker system, whether it’s small or large. Because it has a built-in amplifier, it can make any speaker system louder and more powerful without sacrificing sound quality. As they claim themselves, it packs more “sonic punch”, which sounds pretty appealing.
It isn’t cheap, at over $600, but no good speaker system could be replaced for that price, so if you don’t want to scrap your old one for a new one but just want a quick fix than this is a great option. This is great for an entertainment system by the pool, on the deck or just for those times you want to entertain in the garden.
The amp plugs in and then connects to the Wifi and you can control it using the handy, intuitive app. Turn off the music, turn it on, change the song, turn it up or turn it down without ever needing to leave your seat. This is great news for people who stream lots of music, because the Connect:AMP is compatible with tons of music streaming services. Listen to Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Play Music, Soundcloud, napster, audiobooks.com and more. Sonos boasts over 30 streaming services are available.
You can also play internet radio, your favorite podcasts or anything else you may be interested in.
The build-in amplifier is a class-D digital amplifier and it delivers 55W per channel of audiophile quality to your speakers. You have complete control so you can then adjust the sound to get your bass, treble and balance all exactly how you like them. It has audio line-in with auto-detecting RCA, a subwoofer output with Hz crossover, radiant cooling so you don’t hear those annoying fans and is compatible with analogue or digital audio output.
This amp only weighs just over 5 lbs, so it’s very easy to transport or move around if needs be. This is great because many speaker systems nowadays are very heavy and so once they’re in one place, they tend to stay there.
Although this is a pricey bit of sound equipment, it takes your speaker system to a whole new level and also prevents you from needing to buy an entire new system just to upgrade the sound a bit. Plus, it’s pretty sleek looking so it’ll fit into the décor of any home.
