Nick Spence 2009-11-05T12:00:00-04:00 http://www.networkworld.com/reviews/2009/110509-sonos-zoneplayer.html I've made no secret of my love for the Sonos Multi-room Music System ( Macworld rated 5 out of 5 mice ), a system designed to let you listen to your music all over your house. It's the musical gadget I use most often in my home. But it's not cheap. To get started you need at least a $349 ZonePlayer 90 and a pair of powered speakers. And if you want a way to control the system apart from your computer, you require either an iPhone or iPod touch with the free Sonos Controller app or a $349 Sonos Controller 200 hardware controller ( Macworld rated 4.5 out of 5 mice ).
