The Sonos Connect (Formerly the ZonePlayer 90) is designed to be used with an external amplifier. It contains both analog and digital outputs so you can easily connect it to your existing audio equipment.
Use the Connect to listen to music in a room where you already have an amplifier, such as your home theater system or the stereo system in your family room. Use a Connect to listen to music in your home office where you already have a computer or a pair of powered speakers or use a Connect if you have a distributed audio system that is driven from an amplifier in one central location with speaker wires home-run to this central location.
It takes just a few steps to get your Sonos system up and running so stop reading this and go bye one already.

Comments about Sonos Connect (Formerly the ZonePlayer 90):
Works exactly as it should. I use a Sonos "Bridge" as my network gateway to Sonos "Connect" and "Play:5" players, with music stored on my NAS.
It's so nice to be able to control the selection and playing of all my music via the Sonos application running on an iPad. Even my wife, who is definitely "technically challenged" agrees.
The Sonos system is SUPERB.

Comments about Sonos Connect (Formerly the ZonePlayer 90):
Since long time ago, I was looking for a very good and not expensive solution for listening to streaming and the music stored in my computer (in SSD drives). I'm a HiFi enthusiastic and I love to hear my music with the best fidelity that my pockets can afford, so I have invested in very good traditional HiFi systems and components (Such as Arcam, Cambridge Audio, NAD, Acoustic Energy, Marantz, Audioquest, ProJect Debut III, etc.). As an example, let's say my budget can afford a Volvo or Lexus, but not a Ferrari or Rolls Royce. Having said that, my "technical" problem was solved when I discovered "Sooloos" from Meridian (the British high audio and video quality systems vendor), but the "new problem" was the cost. Before falling into a depression, I discovered SONOS and my ears were happy again and my bank account didn't suffer. SONOS sounds incredibly clear, it's very easy to set up and it matches very good with any traditional HiFi audio system, so you can combine the best of both worlds: hi-tech upgrade and the best quality analogue audio. The only problem with my SONOS is: "It is very addictive......"
I found SONOS at B&H which is my favorite store in NYC and I try to visit it every time I go to the "Big Apple". The guys have an unbeatable and warm service.
Sincerely and best wishes,
