Sonos have had a very dominant position with their mulitroom system for many years, where user interfaces and smooth operating are the core element. In September we reported on Sonos its update 5.1 , which was quite revolutionary regarding access level. Then it became possible to use Sonos` system just by a single Play: 1, directly connected to the house's wireless network.
