Older technology doesn't usually factor into the experience when using the latest model or solution, but the Sonos Amp aims to change this with a design that is focused on an open ecosystem. Capable of being used with your existing speakers and TV, the unit will connect all of your various equipment together rather than requiring users to deal with everything being segregated to its own app or system. This speaks to the increasing number of devices within our living spaces as consumers shift towards more smart home solutions that require an organized way to keep them connected.
The Sonos Amp is priced at $599 and will be available for purchase starting in February 2019, but will be accessible by professional installers as of December 1, 2018.
