Sonos

[Jwg1749]

If someone built a unit that was as stable, elegant and feature rich as my Sonos with killer sound quality they'd own the market

A clear indication that Sonos themselves should do it, even if it means marrying their proprietary technology to someone else's audiophile circuitry.

I agree: an "audiophile" Sonos Connect would be a great addition to the range. They could simply get someone else to design it for them. Given that there are some very good Sonos upgrades around (e.g. Wyred4Sound and Fidelity Audio), there's obviously a (small) market for this kind of thing. They'd have to be a bit careful about the marketing, so as not to make the standard Connect look too inferior.
