I remember walking into a BestBuy a while ago and listening to Sonos speakers a while ago. I compared it to the Bose next to it, and decided that it sounded better. Since then, I have ignored Sonos for a while, as my house filled up with Bose speakers of every size.

我记得前一阵子走进百思买，前一阵子听Sonos的演讲。 我将它与旁边的Bose进行了比较，并决定听起来更好。 从那时起，我已经无视Sonos了一段时间，因为我的房子里装满了各种尺寸的Bose扬声器。

The Bose sound was good for a while, but they never really got wireless well — which is strange for a company of that size and clout!!

一段时间以来，Bose的声音效果不错，但是它们的无线效果却一直很差，这对于一家如此规模和影响力的公司来说很奇怪！

Over a few years, the bass and treble high sound with no mids started to fatigue. Then, I walked into BestBuy again, and saw the Play 5. It did not sound great in the store, and I may never have purchased it.

几年来，没有中音的低音和高音开始疲劳。 然后，我再次走进BestBuy，看到了Play5。它在商店中听起来并不好，而且我可能从未购买过。

I have a confession to make… I tried to build a Sonos like system myself with Apple TVs, Airplay 2 and my existing Bose speakers of various sizes and shapes. It did work, but it had a lot of issues and there were too many wires, and too many speakers sitting together.

我要坦白...我试图自己用Apple TV，Airplay 2和我现有的各种尺寸和形状的Bose扬声器来构建类似Sonos的系统。 它确实有效，但是存在很多问题，电线太多，并且有太多的扬声器坐在一起。

Having tried to DIY this myself with Onkyo, Sonos Connect, Apple TV and Bose, I have to advice you:

在尝试自己与Onkyo，Sonos Connect，Apple TV和Bose自己进行DIY之后，我必须建议您：

Please do not try to build a Sonos-like system by yourself. The #1 mistake which people do (I think) is to try to build a Sonos “like” system by themselves.

请不要尝试自己构建类似Sonos的系统。 人们(我认为)犯的＃1错误是试图自己建立Sonos的“喜欢”系统。

You will fail miserably. You will realize Sonos built it better in every single way — under cost. It certainly is an interesting project, but the Sonos wireless system and its convenience — literally pays for itself and is way more easier to use, and reliable than “put together” alternatives from relatively expensive alternatives. You will see that even if you try to do it yourself, Sonos could be the cheaper alternative. Clearly, their margins are not that high if you consider the price of a very good speaker + a mini computer to do the wireless system.

您将惨败。 您将意识到Sonos以各种方式更好地构建了它-节省了成本。 当然，这是一个有趣的项目，但是Sonos无线系统及其便利性-确实物有所值，并且比从相对昂贵的替代品中“放在一起”的替代品更易于使用和可靠。 您将看到，即使您自己尝试这样做，Sonos可能也是更便宜的选择。 显然，如果您考虑一个非常好的扬声器+一台用于无线系统的微型计算机的价格，它们的利润就不会很高。

I used to think that Airplay (especially v2.0) is good. But it works mostly well only within Apple Products, and implementations from “others” like Onkyo and Sonos don’t really work as seamlessly as Sonos itself works. I faced too may problems trying to group speakers to play together, etc. Also, Apple TV does not work very well if you only use it to stream music and do not connect a TV to it.

我曾经认为Airplay(尤其是v2.0)是好的。 但是它只能在Apple产品中正常工作，并且Onkyo和Sonos等“其他”公司的实现并不能像Sonos本身那样无缝地协同工作。 我也面临尝试将扬声器组合在一起播放的问题，等等。此外，如果仅使用Apple TV播放音乐而不连接电视，Apple TV的效果也不佳。

What you lose with the Bose Speakers is mid-bass.

Bose Speakers带来的损失是中低音。

The “mini” home theater setup with Bose Soundbar did have a sub, so bass and sub bass was ok with bass.

Bose Soundbar的“迷你”家庭影院设置确实具有低音，因此低音和低音都可以使用低音。

Bose built so many different wireless systems trying to compete with Sonos, none of them compatible with each other — and none of them work very well.

Bose建立了许多不同的无线系统试图与Sonos竞争，但它们彼此之间都不兼容，而且都无法很好地工作。

With my current setup of two Play 5’s and a Sonos Sub, the sound is much richer. I do admit that some of the Bose speakers (like their radio) had much “sharper” highs — but I prefer the overall richer sound of the Play 5 which feels much more balanced and natural.

在我当前设置的两个Play 5和一个Sonos Sub的情况下，声音要丰富得多。 我确实承认有些Bose扬声器(如他们的收音机)具有“尖锐”的高音-但我更喜欢Play 5整体上更丰富的声音，感觉更加平衡自然。

Martin Logan Motion speakers do sound “better” than Sonos. But the question is do you want to have a receiver — speaker combination all over your home? The advantage is mostly from a customized version of the Air Motion Transformer tweeter — which I love.

Martin Logan Motion扬声器的声音确实比Sonos更好。 但是问题是，您是否想在整个家中都配备一个接收器-扬声器组合？ 优势主要来自我喜欢的Air Transformer高音扬声器的定制版本。

If you consider the overall richness of the sound, I would say that Sonos has an edge even there because it has a wider range (because of multiple speakers), than say a Motion 15i which is essentially a two way speaker (even considering that the large AMT tweeter can go further down than typical tweeters).

如果您考虑声音的整体丰富性，我会说Sonos即使在那儿也有优势，因为它的音域更广(因为有多个扬声器)，比说Motion 15i本质上是一种双向扬声器(甚至考虑到大型AMT高音扬声器比典型的高音扬声器要走得更远。

Look at all those speakers within the Play 5. Some think it is a disadvantage to have many small speakers, but the truth is this is what gives it a richer sound than many of the two way speakers:

看一下Play 5中的所有扬声器。有人认为拥有许多小型扬声器是不利的，但事实是，这比起双向扬声器中的许多扬声器，声音更丰富：

I use these brilliant ML 15i speakers for critical listening. However, I do feel that the Play 5 has a richer sound — it may not be as clear and well defined as the 15i, but the richness and warmth from a wider frequency range more than make up for the precision of the AMT Tweeters:

我使用这些出色的ML 15i扬声器进行关键聆听。 但是，我确实感觉到Play 5具有更丰富的声音-可能不如15i清晰和清晰，但是来自更宽频率范围的丰富感和温暖感足以弥补AMT高音扬声器的精度：

I honestly compared ML with Sonos. ML is great, but still I would use these “boutique” speakers in a few listening areas around the home, leaving Sonos to be the speaker everywhere else. The speaker which you can find in most rooms which are not really used for critical listening.

老实说，我将ML与Sonos进行了比较。 ML很棒，但是我仍然会在家庭中的一些聆听区域使用这些“精品”扬声器，让Sonos成为其他地方的扬声器。 您可以在大多数房间中找到的扬声器，这些扬声器并没有真正用于聆听。

On hind sight, I am continuously amazed how Sonos managed to create such a wide, rich & warm sound from the smallest cabinet size I’ve ever seen from any speakers including the diminutive (compared to other book shelf speakers) ML 15i. The warmth in the sound has improved with the S2 update.

事后看来，我一直惊讶于Sonos如何以最小的音箱尺寸(包括小型扬声器(与其他书架式扬声器相比)ML 15i)从最小的机箱中创造出如此宽广，丰富而温暖的声音。 随着S2更新，声音的温暖感得到了改善。

I don’t see why people would want to do critical listening “everywhere”. Here are the only reasons why a music lover may want to do critical listening:

我不明白为什么人们会想在“任何地方”进行批判性聆听。 这是音乐爱好者可能想要进行批判性聆听的唯一原因：

• You are involved in mixing music in a studio. Even in such cases, it is important to listen to the same song through different speakers. And so you would not just listen through audiophile speakers “all the time”.
  您正在工作室中混音。 即使在这种情况下，通过不同的扬声器收听同一首歌曲也很重要。 因此，您不仅会“一直”通过发烧友的扬声器收听。
• You have your own band, and like the live “real” sound and can appreciate and make our the nuances you can’t hear when you playback the same song on a CD.
  您拥有自己的乐队，喜欢现场的“真实”声音，可以欣赏并制作我们在CD上播放同一首歌曲时看不到的细微差别。
• You like CDs — and you really don’t like MP3s or Spotify.
  您喜欢CD，但实际上不喜欢MP3或Spotify。
• It took a while for you to do streaming, but you pay to listen to Tidal Master.
  您花了一些时间进行流媒体播放，但您需要付费收听Tidal Master。
• You play a musical instrument.
  您弹奏乐器。
• You are cursed with good ears, so you have Focal speakers in your car, and audiophile equipment everywhere, and you just don’t like to listen to music through speakers below a certain standard.
  您的耳朵被诅咒了，因此您的汽车中装有Focal扬声器，到处都有发烧音响设备，并且您只是不喜欢通过低于特定标准的扬声器听音乐。
• You can close your eyes and just listen to music for hours, getting completely absorbed in it.
  您可以闭上眼睛，听几个小时的音乐，然后完全沉迷其中。

I honestly don’t see why you would not want to listen through Sonos speakers because you are an audiophile. They are good enough for the “everywhere” speaker system. They do a lot of things right at that price point.

老实说，我不明白为什么您不愿意通过Sonos扬声器收听音乐，因为您是发烧友。 它们对于“无处不在”扬声器系统已经足够好了。 他们在这个价格点上做了很多事情。

Nobody has unlimited money to play with, except the 0.01% — so for the vast majority of music lovers, Sonos is more than enough and there is no reason to pay more money to get even more expensive and better speakers — and you won’t get a better wireless system for more money — better speakers: yes, better wireless: no.

除了0.01％之外，没有人可以无限赚钱。因此，对于绝大多数音乐爱好者来说，Sonos绰绰有余，而且没有理由花更多的钱来获得更昂贵，更好的扬声器-而且您不会获得更好的无线系统以赚更多的钱—更好的扬声器：是的，更好的无线：不。

There needs to be a relatively good, easy to install wireless speaker, which is not too large & ugly or expensive, without requiring a lot of wires, and complicated setup for whole home coverage. I do believe that the Play 5 does a good job there because it would for example produce better sound than in-ceiling or in-wall speakers.

需要有一个相对较好，易于安装的无线扬声器，它既不会太大，丑陋或昂贵，又不需要很多电线，而且整个家庭的安装也很复杂 。 我确实相信Play 5在这里做得很好，因为它比起天花板式或壁挂式扬声器会产生更好的声音。

When you have not heard mid-bass for as long as I have, and suddenly hear the Play 5 sound, it can blow you away completely…

当您有很长一段时间没有听到中低音时，突然听到Play 5的声音时，它会完全震撼您……

I want to note that the sound quality has most definitely improved with the S2 update. All speakers sound richer, more well defined, better clarity and lesser distortion than before. It is a noticeable change! And I keep mentioning this over & over again in this article, because I am surprised how they managed to make the sound better through a software update alone.

我想指出的是，随着S2更新，音质绝对得到了改善。 所有扬声器的声音比以前更丰富，更清晰，清晰度更高，失真更少。 这是一个明显的变化！ 而且，我在本文中一再提到这一点，因为令我惊讶的是，他们仅通过软件更新就如何使声音变得更好。

Getting back to my original story…

回到我的原始故事...

At some point I wanted a water proof speaker in a bathroom, and after a lot of research, I found that most of the Sonos speakers are water proof (Note: The sub is not, which is sad, and which is why I keep the sub right outside the bathroom door in the bedroom).

在某个时候，我想要在浴室里使用防水扬声器，经过大量研究，我发现大多数Sonos扬声器都是防水扬声器(注意：子扬声器不是防水的，这很可悲，这就是为什么我保留扬声器的原因。子在卧室的浴室门外)。

I should say I was forced to get a Play 5 because I could not find another wireless speaker with a big enough sound which I liked for the bathroom. It was also easy to install (compared to other wall/ ceiling mount speakers). I got to say — I love showering while listening to rich music!! you should try that for relaxation sometimes!!

我应该说我被迫购买Play 5，是因为找不到适合我的浴室的，声音足够大的无线扬声器。 它也很容易安装(与其他壁挂/天花板安装扬声器相比)。 我必须说-我喜欢在听丰富的音乐时洗澡！ 您有时应该尝试放松一下！！

It sounded completely different at home as compared to the BestBuy floor…

与BestBuy地板相比，在家里听起来完全不同...

It just blew my mind away. For the very first time, I realized what I was missing with my Bose speakers. I liked the Play 5 so much because of the rich sound that I have several Play 5’s around home, a few Play 1’s and two subs. There are days when I am honestly surprised with the amount of bass coming from the puny Play 1 speaker in one of the bathrooms!

它只是让我震惊。 第一次，我意识到我的Bose扬声器缺少什么。 我之所以喜欢Play 5，是因为声音丰富，我在家中有几个Play 5，几个Play 1和两个子。 有几天，我对其中一间浴室的弱小的Play 1扬声器发出的大量低音感到惊讶。

I do want to mention the significant improvement in sound with the S2 update. It was definitely noticeable as a significantly richer sound, as soon as the update was done.

我确实要提到S2更新在声音方面的重大改进。 一旦完成更新，它无疑会以明显丰富的声音而引人注目。

Having dealt with the receiver + sub + speakers deal, I can say that a Sonos system and the sound it provides by auto-configuring itself to the room is a lot better experience for most people who would struggle to calibrate the speakers and the receiver to the room.

处理好接收器+子+扬声器的交易后，我可以说，对于大多数难以校准扬声器和接收器以解决扬声器问题的人来说，Sonos系统及其通过自动配置到房间而提供的声音要好得多。房间。

Most people completely skew the room — subwoofer calibration process. Usually it is turned up too loud, with a boomy effect.

大多数人会完全扭曲房间-低音炮的校准过程。 通常情况下，它调得太大声，会产生嗡嗡声。

The calibration of a sub is so difficult to do by yourself — even for a graduate in Electronics — that I truly feel that the Sonos sub pays for itself, even if it is much smaller, than a regular sub by the ability to configure itself to a room.

潜艇的校准很难由您自己完成，即使对于电子专业的毕业生而言，我也确实感到Sonos潜艇的价格比常规潜艇要高，即使它要比常规潜艇更便宜，因为它具有自我配置的能力。一个房间。

The size of the Sonos Sub is just right — and you have to see it, to appreciate how cute it looks!!

Sonos Sub的大小恰到好处-您必须看到它，才能欣赏它的可爱！

I like my sub-bass to sound natural — not amplified. In fact, I confess that I have been able to tune my “discrete” sub better by hearing how the Sonos sub is tuned to the speaker it is paired to — which really you have to hear a well tuned system, no matter how much you read about sub tuning, you won’t be able to do it, till you hear it yourself.

我喜欢我的低音提琴听起来自然-不被放大。 实际上，我承认，通过收听Sonos低音炮如何与配对的扬声器进行调谐，我能够更好地调谐“离散”低音炮–实际上，无论您有多少，您都必须听到一个调谐良好的系统。了解有关子调优的知识，直到您自己听到它为止，您将无法做到。

Bluesound does have an advantage because of the larger speakers which I know will sound better. I know this because you really do miss a lot of richness in the sound with smaller speakers, when compared to larger ones even if it says that the frequency response is the same. 100Hz on a 6.5 inch woofer sounds better than with a 4/ 3.5 inch speaker. I have tested this out myself.

Bluesound确实具有优势，因为我知道更大的扬声器会听起来更好。 我知道这一点，因为与较大的扬声器相比，即使说频率响应相同，您也确实会错过许多扬声器的丰富声音。 6.5英寸低音扬声器上的100Hz声音比4 / 3.5英寸扬声器更好。 我自己对此进行了测试。

But, the Sonos wireless system is better than Bluesound. This matters.

但是，Sonos无线系统比Bluesound更好。 这很重要。

I prefer to go with the larger company who make and sell a lot more speakers because they can provide a better support/ quality of experience at a lower price point.

我更喜欢与生产和销售更多扬声器的较大公司合作，因为它们可以以较低的价格提供更好的支持/体验质量。

Essentially, I am saying that when there is a well known company, producing speakers at scale, which has been out there for a while — those would be better than another company who does not have the scale. You are also able to enjoy something cheaper than what a small company would sell it for.

本质上，我说的是，如果有一家知名的公司，已经生产了一段时间的大规模扬声器，那将比没有规模的另一家公司更好。 您还可以享受比小公司出售的便宜的东西。

I have some thoughts for future updates to Sonos:

我对Sonos的未来更新有一些想法：

Shared Sub

共享子

I think they should provide the ability to be able to pair the Sub with different speakers at the same time, so we could “share” a sub between different speakers which are in adjacent rooms or on the same floor. Obviously this makes sense when the speaker is right in the middle of two “open” rooms — which have speakers, and you want the sub bass whenever you play any speaker in either room.

我认为他们应该能够同时将Sub与不同的扬声器配对，因此我们可以在相邻房间或同一楼层的不同扬声器之间“共享”一个Sub。 显然，当扬声器正好位于两个“开放”房间的中间时，这是有道理的，这些房间都有扬声器，并且无论何时在任一房间中播放任何扬声器，都需要低音炮。

Upgradeable DAC Modules (Sonos DX Modules)

可升级的DAC模块(Sonos DX模块)

Yes, there are ways to improve the sound even with a resolution of “only” 24 bit, 48 KHz.

是的，即使分辨率仅为“仅” 24位，48 KHz，也有多种方法可以改善声音。

Sonos really needs to change their business model by creating new features which lets them sell more stuff to the people who already have their speakers.

Sonos确实需要通过创建新功能来改变其业务模式，从而使他们可以向已经拥有演讲者的人们出售更多产品。

One way is to introduce a slide-in upgradeable DAC Module to their speakers. It is very clear that good DACs can significantly upgrade the sound of a setup. Why not sell speakers with upgradeable DACs in them? — you should be able to start off very cheaply to enter the Sonos ecosystem, and once inside, you should be able to slowly upgrade the sound over time.

一种方法是在其扬声器中引入一个滑入式可升级DAC模块。 很明显，好的DAC可以大大提升设置的声音。 为什么不出售内含可升级DAC的扬声器？ —您应该能够以非常便宜的价格开始进入Sonos生态系统，并且一旦进入，您就应该能够随着时间的推移缓慢地升级声音。

• Sonos makes more money and gets more profitable (no more layoffs)
  Sonos赚更多的钱，赚更多的钱(没有裁员)
• People don’t need to spend a lot of money all at once. Many people like to start small and slowly upgrade or enhance their system over time.
  人们不需要一次花很多钱。 许多人喜欢从小处着手，然后逐步升级或增强他们的系统。
• There are only so many speakers you can put in your house. Once you reach a certain saturation point (I have — almost), it is time to allow the customer to buy something else over time to upgrade their sound.
  您只能在家中放很多扬声器。 一旦达到某个饱和点(我几乎有)，就可以让客户随时间购买其他东西来升级他们的声音。

Sonos 1 Tweeter Mode

Sonos 1高音模式

It maybe a good idea to be able to pair Play 1’s as “tweeters” when they play grouped with a larger speaker like the Play 5 — just like the Sub takes over the lows.

当Play 1与较大的扬声器(例如Play 5)分组演奏时，能够将Play 1与“高音扬声器”配对是一个好主意-就像Sub占据了低点。

Sonos T1 Speaker

Sonos T1扬声器

Taking the previous idea forward & considering that having one speaker play all frequencies does impacts the overall sound negatively, there should be “tweeter” specific speakers of the same size as the Play 1’s which do not have any bass at all, but are used just like the sub in a plug and play scenario to get better high frequencies. Probably makes sense to use something like AMT tweeters which can give these an edge.

沿用先前的想法，并考虑让一个扬声器在所有频率上演奏都会对整体声音产生负面影响，因此应该有“高音”专用扬声器，其大小与Play 1相同，完全没有低音，但仅用于像即插即用场景中的潜艇，以获得更好的高频。 使用诸如AMT高音扬声器之类的东西可能会给它们带来优势，这可能是有意义的。

Sonos M1 Speaker

Sonos M1扬声器

Mid bass specific speaker, tuned for mids only.

中低音专用扬声器，仅适用于中音。

Sonos W1 Speaker

Sonos W1扬声器

Sonos Woofer speaker, tunes for everything from mids to sub-bass.

Sonos Woofer扬声器，可以调音各种音色，从中音到低音提琴。

Sonos Atmos Speaker

Sonos Atmos扬声器

It makes sense to sell up-firing Dolby Atmos speakers which can be paired with any other Sonos speaker to provide Atmos sound. This is a good way to get existing customers who already like Sonos to “buy more”.

出售可以与其他任何Sonos扬声器配对以提供Atmos声音的杜比全景声(Dolby Atmos)扬声器是很有意义的。 这是让已经喜欢Sonos的现有客户“购买更多”的好方法。

Summary

摘要

My ideal would be to have a plug and play system where you can start with any one speaker, and then add more speakers to make it sound better. This is perfect for those who want to buy more than one speaker, but can only buy one at a time. With this model, Sonos can sell more speakers to those who already love them, while at the same time providing real value and enhancement to their existing customers.

我的理想是拥有一个即插即用系统，您可以从任何一个扬声器开始，然后添加更多扬声器以使其音质更好。 对于那些想要购买多个扬声器但一次只能购买一个扬声器的人来说，这是完美的选择。 通过这种模式，Sonos可以将更多的扬声器出售给已经喜欢它们的人，同时为他们的现有客户提供真正的价值和增强。

Ex: Start with a Sonos W1, add Sonos T1 to enhance high frequencies, Sonos M1 to enhance mids and the Sub for the sub bass.

例 ：从Sonos W1开始，添加Sonos T1以增强高频，添加Sonos M1以增强中音，为Sub低音添加Sub。

Someone like me, I would buy a Sonos Atmos speaker in a heartbeat, and would love to get that immersive sound from Tidal Atmos playlists.

像我这样的人，我会心跳声望地购买Sonos Atmos扬声器，并希望从Tidal Atmos播放列表中获得身临其境的声音。

I already have two sub woofers, and plan to add more in the long term, so that wherever music plays at home, there is sub bass as well.

我已经有两个低音炮，并且从长远来看，我打算增加更多的低音炮，以便无论在家中播放音乐的地方，都有低音炮。

How to handle controversial product updates

如何处理有争议的产品更新

It is clear, nobody really knew how to build the best wireless music system when we started. It is a problem if the speakers can no longer play music after a certain software version — not because of the music hardware, but because of the obsolete computing components within them. This is inevitable in any computing product.

很明显，当我们开始时，没有人真正知道如何构建最好的无线音乐系统。 如果扬声器在某个软件版本之后不能再播放音乐，这是一个问题-不是因为音乐硬件，而是因为其中的过时计算组件。 在任何计算产品中，这都是不可避免的。

There are some interesting questions here because music systems can function for much longer than a typical computer system, except in the past few years where the pace has slowed down because silicon can only be worked down to a certain nano-meter process because of physics.

这里有一些有趣的问题，因为音乐系统的功能比典型的计算机系统的运行时间长得多，除了在过去的几年中，由于物理原因，硅只能加工到特定的纳米Craft.io，因此速度放慢了。

I believe what needs to be done is to try and develop a system where the entire system within the speaker can be converted to a large network card when it becomes obsolete. In this scenario, Sonos can sell a server box which sits somewhere in the basement, possibly hard wired to the network, which can be upgraded over time as it becomes obsolete. This box will be powerful, dedicated and not have the constraints of size because it is not in a speaker, and it can do all the heavy lifting.

我相信需要做的是尝试开发一个系统，该系统可以将扬声器中的整个系统转换为旧的大网卡。 在这种情况下，Sonos可以出售位于地下室某处的服务器盒，该服务器盒可能与网络硬连接，随着服务器的淘汰，可以随时间对其进行升级。 此盒子功能强大，专用，并且没有尺寸限制，因为它不在扬声器中，并且可以完成所有繁重的工作。

All the speakers will do is to receive the data, possibly in compressed raw audio format, and just play it back.

扬声器将要做的只是接收数据(可能是压缩的原始音频格式)，然后播放它。

I think something can be done along these lines, to build a next gen system where computing is separated from the speakers themselves.

我认为可以按照这些思路做一些事情，以建立下一代系统，其中计算与说话者本身是分离的。

Companies who do computer backups already use similar technology, because again backup is an intensive process and PCs without powerful and dedicated hardware struggle to process the data. So, they have a separate powerful box which sits in the office and backups multiple PCs at the same time. You have the same idea where lot of data is flowing through the network.

进行计算机备份的公司已经使用了类似的技术，因为再次备份是一个密集的过程，并且没有强大而专用的硬件的PC很难处理数据。 因此，他们有一个单独的功能强大的盒子，该盒子位于办公室中，并且可以同时备份多台PC。 您有相同的想法，其中大量数据流经网络。

In the case of Sonos, it would be simpler in that, music data is sent over the wire. The part of the speaker which decompresses the raw data into audio format, can if needed be converted into a “card” which can be upgraded over time.

就Sonos而言，它会更简单，因为音乐数据是通过有线方式发送的。 扬声器将原始数据解压缩为音频格式的部分，可以根据需要转换为“卡”，可以随时间升级。

As you can see, Sonos can still sell products to even existing long term customers in this manner, helping them enjoy their music for decades.

如您所见，Sonos仍然可以通过这种方式向现有的长期客户出售产品，帮助他们享受音乐数十年。

It is a hard problem to solve. But that only means it is an amazing white-space opportunity where value can be built by a good company in that space.

这是一个很难解决的问题。 但这仅意味着这是一个了不起的空白机会，一个好的公司可以在该机会中创造价值。

Acquire a great “in-home” music software company instead of building your own

收购一家出色的“家庭”音乐软件公司，而不是自己建立

I would recommend Sonos to acquire Roon as it is a great product and for some reason, Roon still only works at home, and is not something which works “everywhere” on the go and at office.

我会建议Sonos收购Roon，因为它是一个很棒的产品，由于某种原因，Roon仍然只能在家工作，而不是在旅途中和办公室“无处不在”的东西。

June 7, 2020: I continue to compare the sound from the Play 5’s to the ML 15is and even the 30 center channel with 8i L&Rs. I continue to like the “richer” but maybe not as clear Play 5 sound. It is nice to listen to the same music in a different way, even though it may not be as analytical as my MLs.

2020年6月7日 ：我将继续比较Play 5和ML 15is以及8i L＆R的30中心声道的声音。 我仍然喜欢“更丰富”的声音，但可能不像Play 5声音那么清晰。 尽管可能不像我的ML那样分析性强，但是以不同的方式聆听相同的音乐还是很不错的。

Continuing my review of Sonos, you should read my review of Tidal from different sources, including Sonos, in the below article. I start with a background of when I started listening music, and how I eventually arrived at Sonos including some comparisons of Sonos when streaming your local music library. Some of the insights were frankly quite surprising to me:

继续我对Sonos的评论，您应该在下面的文章中阅读来自不同来源(包括Sonos)的Tidal评论。 我从开始听音乐的背景，以及最终如何到达Sonos的背景开始，其中包括流式传输本地音乐库时Sonos的一些比较。 坦率地说，一些见解使我感到惊讶：

July 12, 2020: The thought entered my mind today that I need to explain why Sonos is not my critical listening setup. It is used as the “whole house” music system currently. There is a reason for this:

2020年7月12日 ：今天，我想到了一个想法，我需要解释为什么Sonos不是我的关键聆听设置。 目前，它被用作“全屋”音乐系统。 有一个原因：

I would have gone with two Play 5’s a sub and two Play 1’s instead of my Martin Logan setup with an Onkyo AV Receiver. The reason I could not use Sonos is because I have a mini studio setup at home with an audio interface. Sonos has a delay because of the wireless technology (like all other wireless speakers), hence it cannot be used for this setup no matter how badly I wanted to use it in the beginning.

我本来会用两个Play 5的一个子和两个Play 1的，而不是用Onkyo AV接收器安装Martin Logan。 我不能使用Sonos的原因是因为我在家中有一个带有音频接口的迷你录音室。 由于无线技术(与所有其他无线扬声器一样)，Sonos有所延迟，因此无论我一开始要使用它多么糟糕，都无法将其用于此设置。

If the Sonos speakers had a line in, which played music without a delay and this was a supported setup (completely wired) — I would have gone with Sonos for sure.

如果Sonos扬声器插入线路，可以无延迟播放音乐，并且这是受支持的设置(完全有线)，那么我肯定会选择Sonos。

The other reason why I am glad I did not go with Sonos because the ML setup has AMT Tweeters. These are significantly better for high frequencies than regular tweeters. I know this because of the extreme realism playing back stringed instruments on AMT tweeters. I love that sound, and it helps me create the music I love with more realism.

我很高兴我没有选择Sonos的另一个原因是，因为ML设置具有AMT高音扬声器。 对于高频而言，这些要比普通高音扬声器好得多。 我之所以知道这一点，是因为极端现实主义在AMT高音扬声器上播放弦乐器。 我喜欢那种声音，它可以帮助我更真实地创作自己喜欢的音乐。
