Product highlights from Sonos

Sonos offers true versatility to allow for seamless integration into your home – and your lifestyle. There’s something for everyone in the range. Here are some of our top picks:

• Best for home cinema: we love the Sonos Arc, which features Dolby Atmos and eleven internal speakers to deliver incredibly precise sound in all directions with amazing depth, detail and clarity. With voice control functionality to boot, the Arc is perfect for taking your home cinema experience to new, immersive heights.
• Best for a party on the go: lightweight, portable and waterproof, the Sonos Roam provides an uninterrupted listening experience wherever you go. Stream audio directly from your smart device, with WiFi or Bluetooth, and enjoy unbelievable clarity of sound in a compact, durable design.
• Best for outdoors: Sonos and Sonance Outdoor Speakers offer a full, detailed sound experience in your garden or patio area. Weatherproof to withstand heat, cold, moisture and more, when powered with an amp and synced with your indoor system, the limits for continuous audio entertainment inside and out become endless.

How do I get Sonos in my life?

The ideal first step on the journey of setting up any new smart technology into the home is always to ask the experts! The Clarke Infinity team have been creating bespoke solutions in our clients’ homes for years, so we have the know-how and the passion for achieving your smart home goals and exceeding expectations to bring your entertainment experience to new heights.

We’ve implemented Sonos products in many of our previous projects, including smart soundbars which are a great addition to your home cinema or gaming setup, or just for relaxing with music.

All you need for integrating Sonos into your life:

• A power source – static products, such as the Playbase or Playbar (both great solutions for connecting up your TV audio) will need to plug in to the mains as well as to other components in your system, such as your television. Sonos also offer a selection of fantastic wireless, portable speakers, such as the Move, or the Roam – but they’ll still need to charge in order to deliver their 10+ hours of fantastic sound.
• Wi-Fi connectivity – many of your Sonos products can be controlled via Bluetooth, but in order to get your new products set up in the first instance – or new items synced up with your existing system – you need to get yourself connected to your router.
• The Sonos app – the app is your hub for connecting all of your streaming services, music libraries, radio player and audiobook providers all in one place, via your mobile device (such as your phone or tablet). Super easy to use, once you’re set up you’ll be listening to your favourite content through your new speaker system in no time. The app is then your go-to for getting the party started, commencing the next chapter of your audiobook, setting a relaxing ambience and more – and with in-built voice control capabilities, life couldn’t be easier.
  • The latest version of the app, Sonos S2, as well as offering increased security, an improved design and smarter software is a required version for some Sonos products, so make sure you check before you download.

Here at Clarke Infinity, we keep our finger on the pulse of ‘all things audio’ and have years of experience in the industry – so when it comes to recommending products and designing bespoke home solutions, we’re your team.
