In fact, there&#8217;s not too much news even if you don&#8217;t know what Sonos does. Let me break it down for you: the Sonos system is a nice, comprehensive wireless music system for your house that you can control <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/2008\/10\/28\/sonos-launches-iphone-ipod-touch-app\/\">via your iPhone<\/a>. If you haven&#8217;t heard of it before and you&#8217;re wondering how to get your music collection to various rooms in your house, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/Sonos\">check out the demo.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The rest of you, think on your current Sonos speakers: are they good enough? No? Well, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sonos.com\/S5demo\">these ones are better.<\/a> The focus groups they&#8217;ve been running must have gone something like &#8220;No, everything&#8217;s great, actually. I guess we could use a bit more power.&#8221; And that is how the Sonos S5 was born. Stereo tweeters and mid-range drivers, plus a sub in each unit.<\/p>\n<p>Trouble is, these fancy magic speakers cost $400 each. Zounds! Of course, some would say <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/2008\/12\/12\/review-sonos-bundle-150-with-loudspeakers-and-more\/\">they&#8217;re worth it.<\/a> Personally, I just turn up my speakers loud enough that I can hear them in the shower or while cooking, but that&#8217;s not really the most sophisticated solution (though I must say it is elegant). <\/p>\n<p><object width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/jz8Ix4PGm5s&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/jz8Ix4PGm5s&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowScriptAccess=\"always\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/5VZk1ePyZ7BDqCyzaJAB75xasZU\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/5VZk1ePyZ7BDqCyzaJAB75xasZU\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/5VZk1ePyZ7BDqCyzaJAB75xasZU\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/5VZk1ePyZ7BDqCyzaJAB75xasZU\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=j8k-XUlKIqs:KmWU5Euc4fQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=j8k-XUlKIqs:KmWU5Euc4fQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=j8k-XUlKIqs:KmWU5Euc4fQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=j8k-XUlKIqs:KmWU5Euc4fQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=j8k-XUlKIqs:KmWU5Euc4fQ:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re familiar with the Sonos system, then there isn&#8217;t too much news here.
