Wyred4Sound Remedy Reclocker

[hk6230]

An area that exists for the reclocker is one I don't believe anyone here has mentioned is for use with the Sonos ZP/80, 90 or Connect. It allows streaming from all the usual suspects with results that are indistinguishable from the more expensive 96k modified Sonos. I have an 9yr old Sonos ZP90 that was modified by Cullen Circuits before they became Wyred 4 Sound a few years back. This summer I purchased a new 96k Connect from W4S just after the D200 to keep as a backup in the event my old ZP90 is on borrowed time since its almost 10 years old. Years ago I gave one of my unmodified ZP90's to my oldest son who now uses it with a Remedy Reclocker. Neither of us can hear a difference when streaming between it and the modified 96k Sonos. If you bought both pieces new they would cost $740 while the 96k Sonos would set you back $890. Of course there's the extra box & cabling to deal with when using the RR but SQ remains identical between the two systems. My son doesn't have the budget I do so its a great option for him. And since the 96k Sonos is the only thing I stream from using Deezer Elite with no plans of future changes I'm content as is. Of course the Sonos software to me today is both familiar, bullet-proof and all I need in the sand lot I play in.

This is what I will be using a RR for, if I buy one. Does RR really makes a huge difference for Sonos Connect?
