Question 1

Do I need professional installation for Sonos?

Accepted Answer

Sonos is marketed as DIY-friendly, and basic setups are straightforward. However, professional installation ensures optimal speaker placement, network configuration for flawless streaming, integration with Control4 or other automation systems, and troubleshooting of any connectivity issues. We also handle architectural speaker pairing and ensure your system is set up correctly from day one.

Question 2

Can you integrate Sonos with my Control4 system?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Control4 has native Sonos integration, allowing you to control Sonos from Control4 touchscreens, remotes, and apps. You can create scenes that include Sonos (like 'Good Morning' that plays news in the kitchen), trigger music based on events, and manage everything from one unified interface.

Question 3

How many Sonos speakers do I need for whole-home audio?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your home size and how many zones you want. Most homes have 6 to 12 zones (kitchen, living room, bedrooms, patio, basement, etc.). Each zone needs at least one Sonos speaker or a Sonos Amp paired with architectural speakers. We design systems that scale with your needs and budget.

Question 4

What is the difference between Sonos speakers and Sonos Amp?

Accepted Answer

Sonos speakers (One, Five, Move, etc.) are all-in-one units with built-in amplification. Sonos Amp powers passive architectural speakers (in-wall or in-ceiling), giving you invisible audio throughout your home. We often combine both: Sonos speakers in secondary spaces and Sonos Amps with architectural speakers in primary zones.

Question 5

Will Sonos work with my existing WiFi?

Accepted Answer

Sonos requires a reliable WiFi network with adequate coverage and bandwidth. If you have dead zones or coverage issues, we will recommend network upgrades (mesh WiFi or additional access points) to ensure your Sonos system performs flawlessly. Sonos can also be hardwired via ethernet for even better reliability.
