Sonos Reviews

The Sonos S5, the Sonos ZP90, and the Sonos ZP120 are the best wireless multi-media music players you can have. All 3 ZonePlayers are incredibly powerful with high quality sound, easy installation, and the ability to be controlled with your mobile devices.

Combine these features with the ZonePlayer's wireless functionality and you gain the incredible convenience of listening to your music anywhere and everywhere in your house. Owning multiple ZonePlayers and syncing them with your iTunes allows you to relax with your favorite music wherever you are at home.

After extensive research, I have published my reviews on the Sonos wireless music system. The links here will take you to my website with further Sonos Reviews.

Sonos S5 review:
The Positives:
• Crystal clear sound quality
• Place the Sonos S5 in any room with its wireless connectivity
• Conveniently control your Sonos S5 with your iPhone, iPad, and Android
• Access your iTunes and thousands of free radio stations
• Listen to music immediately with the Sonos S5 quick installation


The Negatives:
• Not cheap, but the quality of the speakers makes it worth it
• Requires a separate ZoneBridge to wirelessly connect to your router



The Sonos S5 is an incredible piece of audio technology that will allow you to play whatever music you want whenever you want and all from the convenience of your mobile phone. The Sonos S5 contains 5 speakers; 2 tweeters, 2 mid-range drivers, and 1 subwoofer for high quality room-filling sound. The S5 can also connect to your computer and your other Sonos devices wirelessly. This along with controlling your Sonos system with your iPhone and Android allows you to control what music plays anywhere in your home.

On top of controlling convenience, installing the Sonos S5 only takes about 5 minutes. After reading countless Sonos reviews, the quick installation is by far the most loved feature by the customers.
Of course, the Sonos S5 is a speaker so what music does it play? The answer is anything you want. The Sonos wireless music system allows you to sync your S5 with your iTunes allowing you to play all the music you love. If that's not enough, the S5 also has thousands of free built-in radio stations including Pandora.

The only negatives of the Sonos S5 are the need for a ZoneBridge for full wireless connectivity and the cost. The ZoneBridge is a device that connects to your router. The Sonos S5 costs around $399 which may seem like a lot at first, but most customers have stated clearly it was a worthwhile investment.

Note: Most Sonos speakers contain some of the same positive aspects such as easy installation. I originally wrote these articles as three separate reviews so some of the content may be repeated to correspond with the particular Sonos Zoneplayer I am currently reviewing.

Sonos ZP90:
Positives aspects:
• Integrate the Sonos ZP90 with any of your audio devices or home theatre systems
• Play music instantly with simple installation and easy wireless connectivity
• Place the Sonos ZP90 anywhere in your home with its compact size
• Listen to music throughout the entire room with excellent sound quality
• Conveniently control the Sonos ZP90 with your iPod, iPad, or Android for free


Negative aspects:
• Slightly more difficult to correctly sync non Sonos theatre systems
• Requires a separate ZoneBridge to wirelessly connect to your router
• The speaker is expensive but the quality makes it worth it



If you currently own a home audio or theatre system, the ZP90 can connect to those systems and integrate them into your Sonos wireless music system. Customers continuously rave about the quick Sonos installation and the Sonos ZP90 is no different. The Sonos ZP90 just works when it's supposed to allowing people who are not technically inclined to enjoy their music in minutes. The small size and excellent sound quality makes the Sonos ZP90 perfect for any room. Another cool aspect I have found customers love through my extensive research is the ability to control your Sonos ZP90 with your iPod, iPhone, iPad, and Android. The app is free and makes it easy to control all of your Sonos Products.

Some customers have stated they have had trouble synching the Sonos ZP90 to their current home audio systems. However, most have also stated the problem was fixable by calling the Sonos customer support. Also a ZoneBridge is required to make all of your Sonos products wireless. Otherwise the speakers need to be connected to your router with the provided Ethernet cable. The speakers aren't cheap costing about $350. The quality of the Sonos ZP90 more than makes up for this however and many customers have specifically mentioned this in their reviews.

Sonos ZP120:
The Positives:
• Extremely powerful with high quality sound, amplifier, and added subwoofer
• Integrate the Sonos ZP120 with any of your audio devices or home theatre systems
• Place the Sonos ZP120 anywhere in your home with its compact size
• Play music instantly with simple installation and easy wireless connectivity
• Conveniently control the Sonos ZP120 with your iPod, iPad, or Android for free


The Negatives:
• Slightly more difficult to correctly sync non Sonos theatre systems
• Requires a ZoneBridge for full wireless connectivity
• Costly but easily the most powerful Sonos ZonePlayer



The Sonos ZP120 is basically a more powerful version of Sonos ZP90. What really sets it apart however are the speaker's powerful amplifier and subwoofer that are perfect for any home theatre. Just like all the Sonos products, the ZP120 has very quick installation and crystal clear sound. These aspects along with wireless control from your mobile phone make the ZP120 truly a top quality speaker.

However, nothing is perfect and the ZP120 is no exception. The problems with the Sonos ZP120 are the same as the ZP90. Mildly confusing integration with your current home, the need for a ZoneBridge for wireless connectivity, and the cost all don't help the ZP120 but overall; the quality of the Sonos ZP120 far outweighs the minor negative aspects.

That's all for now, I put a lot of time and effort into formulating these Sonos reviews so I hope you enjoyed it =D!
