Sonos?

Will be watching this with interest!!

Well they arrived! (Just before Hottest 100 BBQ on Australia Day) :) And I must say I'm very impressed... I just need to re-rip my old MP3s into something higher quality :) An excellent selection of radio streams, not just the specialist internet radio but what appears to be a full compliment of radio stations in every city in Australia (I checked all the Hobart and Melbourne ones at least!)

I bought a couple of these power cables to use with them - http://www.alphaenergy.com.au/IEC-Appli ... Black-2m_3

As mentioned previously, the ZoneBridge is excess to my requirements so feel free to send a private message if you want to buy it from me!

Nice work - I'm about 4 weeks behind you - planning to order my set at the end of Feb.

Ive been looking into fitting our new house build with sonos throughout and every stockist has told me that purchasing any sonos item from the states, will not work in aus! For those who are interested in sonos will soon notice that in Aus, we pay almost double the price for the same item in the states. So Chuq, have you had any issues with your sonos from the states? sounds like its all working fine?

Hi cooky3,

Sorry for the delay - yes, mine has been working great! I mainly use it for internet radio and playing from the NAS. I haven't tried any of the other services (Rhapsody, etc) which are available as I just haven't had a need to - hopefully there are other customers who can comment on that?

I came to this thread to post an update - the store mentioned is no longer shipping to Australia. However I have found another one which is - johnsoncorp. I've updated the URL - or rather made a new one. http://amzn.to/sonos-au2. Yes, it's an unimaginative URL! I haven't purchased anything from it yet though an acquaintance on another forum has. I'm going to be ordering a ZP90 very soon I think :)

Great news! The official Sonos store on Amazon (ie. not a reseller) is now shipping to Australia again (it didn't last time I tried it) and to boot the prices are better than the link I supplied previously.

The new shortcut is http://amzn.to/sonos-au3 - I really should set up a link that points to a page on my website so I don't need to make a new short URL every time :-/

I notice the page currently says it will ship in 1-2 months - and then shipping is another 2 weeks - so you need to order now to guarantee delivery before Christmas if that's your thing!

Cooky - regarding issues, none except for one problem - at once stage I didn't have any radio stations working. The iPhone controller (the only one I used) crashed whenever I tried to select it. I left it for a couple of months but I had my work laptop at home on the weekend and tried installing the Sonos desktop controller. It worked - and after using it, the iPhone controller worked! (note - I don't have any Windows machines at home, hence the reason I didn't try it earlier!)

It's all great now though - enjoying Triple J Unearthed, and also listening to A-League matches (when are often only broadcast in the local area of the match!)

hey Chuq, how do you find the ones that send to oz ? I followed your link and all the suppliers ship only within the US.

Iam after the ZP120 x2


Cheers, Stevo

Hi Stephen,

I did some testing last night and found that the reseller I used wasn't shipping anymore, but I found another that was - it happens to be one that I used to use - http://amzn.to/sonos-au2

I really should do up a little web page with all the links so that I don't need to hunt down anywhere I may have mentioned the link to, every time :-/

I haven't found Play:3's anywhere on Amazon that ships to Australia, perhaps try ebay, or *gasp* buy locally and pay too much!

Hi

You could also try http://www.priceusa.com.au. I haven't used them personally, but they have been around for a number of years and have a good reputation.

Looks like a few forum members have found a cheap place to locate Cheap Sonos from an Australia dealer (makes the imports look expensive!)
