I am a big Pandora user and have a bluetooth speaker in every room including the garage and patio. My only complaint with Pandora (besides the lack of a functional android widget) is you cannot stream on more than one device at a time. If you try you will get a message "your Pandora account is currently being used by another device, please pause that device or sign up for another account". It's pretty annoying when you're bouncing from room-to-room and screwing around with playing/pausing. 

I've been looking at Sonos for months now but couldn't see spending that much money on new speakers when I already have several nice bluetooth speakers. Well, I took the plunge today on Sonos and let me tell you...... ooohhhhh it is awesome!!!! The app and system has many options that allow you to stream music into different rooms at different volumes and you can even stream different songs (Pandora, Soundcloud etc.) to each speaker or you can sync all speakers to play the same tune(s). It reminds me of when I was a kid we had FM radio in every room lol.

It isn't cheap but if you're on the fence it is worth it!!!!!!

 
Tip top system, my only (minor complaint)  is that I don't hear enough treble from the sound bar. The sound bar is that good that you wouldn't really even need the subwoofer in a moderate sized room. Very impressed with all  the single speakers though excellent kit, if a little overpriced. 

 
I am really impressed with the little Play 1 speakers, I have one in the home-office, master bedroom and master bath. I am not as impressed with the Play 3... there's just something about the mids and highs, it almost sounds like the stream is slightly fading in and out very quickly, (think strobe light for your ears).... annoying. I also ordered a Play 5 but it was apparently "lost in transit" ... I should have the replacement tomorrow. I've read that once you've listened to a Play 5 you'll return the Play 3.... we'll see. 

I just purchased a new sound bar, amp and rears a few months ago ..... as much as I'd love to I just cannot see replacing it already.

I do not find the Sonos app very intuitive .... you? I spent a few hours yday and this evening playing around with it and still have not quite figured out the "flow" of the app. It is freagin' awesome though to move around the house and have the music streaming. /default_cool.png

  5. LW815 @ LW815: @Mycawesome gotta be proactive(aka fiscally irresponsible[borderline retarded]) and way overstock the library. While the preferred genre may not always be in stock always sure to have sub-genres or at the very least another genre to stay entertained while awaiting the next edition of the favorites.
