Anyone know much about these ?
While waiting for the Logitech Touch to be released I am starting to wonder about getting a Sonus, so anyone got one or any opinions ?

I believe that they're very good. No better or worse than a Squeezebox. And they're a bit more expensive.
Can't comment further, as I've not had the pleasure of using one.

As Chris says. I listened to one long ago (more than a year ago) but I noticed nothing special.
The main difference is the Squeezebox Server, in fact. Sonos uses standard (UPnP) software, it's less powerful than the SB server software imho, but the sound quality is equivalent.

From my recent learnings from looking at forums there seem to be lots of happy Sonos owners compared to lots of Squeezebox owners asking how to solve problems.
Sounds good to me, as I am not a problem person.
Certainly the Sonos remote seems to be praised highly, so I might be heading that way..

Well, from my experience on generalized forums, I'm not sure that Sonos users have less problems than SB ones. It's just that their setup is often less complicated (no nas, no backup software, no room correction plugins, small libraries etc).

It's a good choice Steve, anyway. :)

Cost depends on how far you wanna go. Having a LAN by the side of your stereo also saves you money..
