My old speaker is a Bose Soundock. A few years ago I was looking for a big increase in all aspects, sound quality, output, bass, etc. I bought a C10 and listened for a few days. While it sounded better, it didnt sound that much better, I sent it back after a few days (plus its a large speaker, I need something to put next to my computer screen). I got the Sonos 5 in a few days ago. Definitely sounds better than the C10. Better imaging, more detail too. Will probably keep the Sonos 5.
I need help making a decision. Got friends with Sonos five system. Ist Sonos five the CategorY of D-2 or the new C10? Your experience in terms of usability (app, connectivity, setup) and quality compared to Sonos in Music and Podcasts? Is there also a possibility to place a D2 on the wall/roof ? Thanks for your help especially if you know both products.
Long term the system is terribly unstable. The app regularly is unable to find all speakers resulting in having to set it all up again. The reset procedure for each speaker is also very buggy. The audio setting per speaker is not exact enough making it impossible to find the perfect balance. Furthermore the Audio Pro Link has a will of it's own. Even when wired to LAN it more often than not fails to connect or stutters. I bought two C10s, two C5s and the Link. I wish I hadn't. They sound great but are utterly unreliable. Steer clear from this product.
