Sonos shows wireless multi-room music systems (9/2/2009)

Integrated Systems Europe 2009

Sonos attends Integrated Systems Europe (ISE), a chance to experience the leading Multi-Room Music System Sonos, the leading developer of wireless multi-room music systems for the home, heads into 2009 with a bright outlook following a strong end of year in 2008. Last year saw Sonos buck the trend of consumer electronics companies struggling to come to terms with the economic downturn, with 32% year on year growth in newly registered Sonos users worldwide.

As Sonos continues to lead the way in the digitization of music and hi-fi appliances against the tide of the economic downturn, attendees of Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) in Amsterdam will be able to see just how Sonos continues to introduce resellers to a wireless environment. The Sonos booth (11 K71) can be visited at the Amsterdam RAI Centre this week, from 3rd until the 5th of February 2009 and is an ideal way to experience everything Sonos can offer for the reseller.

As more and more people have their music stored on a PC, Mac or NAS drive and therefore are looking for an alternative to a traditional audio solution, the Sonos Multi-Room Music System is the ideal way to unlock this digitally stored music. Furthermore, resellers can now target the iPod generation following the launch of the Sonos Controller for iPhone, available free of charge on the Apple App Store. And with a choice of 15,000 internet radio stations from all over the world, Sonos targets the growing popularity of internet radio. Favorites or local stations are easily accessible via the wireless Sonos Controller.

Hifi resellers can count on broad support from Sonos at the point of sale. In store point of sale material explains to resellers the benefits of the Sonos multi-room music system and how to install it at home. For the perfect demonstration, Sonos resellers register their Sonos system via an internet connection – the system will be kept up to date with regular updates and the reseller can be found on the Sonos Store Locator.

Besides the strong sales in 2008, Sonos won plenty of prestigious innovation and design awards last year and kicked off this year in style by winning the prestigious iF product design award 2009.
