achillies heel for SB in comparison to Sonos range in that Sonos
controls those 2 factors differently in the design giving more 'plug
and play' however that doesn't mean that SB don't work well out of the

ough space between them and the carpet to

router downstairs which then streams to 3 SB players, one wired to the
router and 2 wirelessly.

I remember seeing this advertised and thought 'looks good and that will
