Could one of them be support for hi-res streaming? Here's hoping. Perhaps the question of whether the whole exercise has been worth it will only be answered when the new features that the old products couldn't handle actually appear. You’ll use it to set up and control your Sonos system. If you don’t have the app, download it from the app store.
Attach the power cord and plug in the Connect:Amp. The app: slide the volume control up or down. Speaker touch controls: when you’re near a speaker, adjust the volume or stop the music using the touch controls on the speaker. Of course, some Sonos owners will still be bitterly disappointed. If your speakers have banana connectors, you can insert the plugs directly into the banana jacks on the back of the Connect:Amp instead. Control the volume on your Sonos system several different wayswhatever works best in the moment. Sonos has an excellent record of thoroughly supporting its products for many years after launch (an astonishing 92 per cent of the products it has ever sold are still in use today) – something that's a real rarity in tech – and it was perhaps inevitable that the day would come that some products would have to be left behind for the rest of the range to move forward. The good news is that these legacy Sonos.

These products include the popular Connect, Connect:Amp and original Play:5 (the full list of affected products is below). Sonos has today announced that this coming May it will end ongoing support for a number of its older products. But, in fairness to Sonos, every product on this list was launched at least ten years ago and discontinued at least five years ago. All ZonePlayers and the original Play:5 among those affected.

The alternative, of course, is to upgrade your older Sonos kit to newer Sonos kit, and the company is making that more cost-effective with its Trade Up scheme, which sees customers given 30 per cent off a new Sonos product when one of these legacy products is recycled.įor some, that won't be enough to assuage the frustration of perfectly good, functioning streamers being rendered obsolete, even if gradually so.
The solution is to separate them and create two systems, but you'll no longer be able to synchronise audio throughout the house. If you have, for example, a Sonos Beam in your lounge and an original Play:5 in the bedroom, after the cut-off date in May neither will receive updates or new features while they remain part of the same system in the Sonos app. A further note of caution: newer products can also be caught in no-update limbo if they're part of systems that include any of the older devices on the list of those affected.
