Even if the ZP120 is working on a sonos account you cannot disconnect it and add to another account because it can be used only in the Sonos S1 App which has limited functions. You cannot add new products. This make the Legacy Sonos zones unusable. You can only use them if they are already in your account.If you use Sonos S2 App it do not recognize Legacy products so you cannot add them either.Buy only S2 compatible products to not waste your money.

UPDATE 22/1/20 - Sonos just emailed to say this device will be "legacy" from May this year, and will prevent my entire Sonos setup from receiving updates. They're now "clarifying" saying I can separate it from my other Sonos gear, but then it won't be part of the "whole house" setup. There's a 30% trade-in deal for new Sonos gear. Suffice to say, I'm really not happy about this turn of events - Sonos isn't cheap to buy, and finding myself on an upgrade treadmill in this manner isn't pleasant. Have done some googling, and am seriously considering some Yamaha gear to replace the "legacy" Sonos I now have :-(---This is a really nice little product - Like all sonos products, it works really well and has good sound quality. We've got it wired up to some ceiling speakers in the kitchen, where it does a great job of filling the room with sound. It's usually at about a quarter volume or less, and works very well like this. The kids like it because we can quickly play their music for tea time, and then put on something we want when they've gone to bed. I put my old phone (minus sim card) into a docking station as a controller (so it's always nearby).I've tried cranking it up - it noticeably distorts at about 80% volume (even with reasonable quality production FLAC files off my NAS). I've had it cut out into self-protect mode at 100% volume (possibly because our speakers are quite low impedance). Truthfully though, only young teenagers will want to run this at full tilt, because anyone else will notice the distortion.My real gripe though is the price - for this sort of money, it should really be more like 100-200W per channel and so have much less distortion problems at volumes you might care about, or else drop to about 200-300 quid. Unless you really need to use your own speakers, then buying two Sonos 1s costs less and does about as much - I think that's a great shame because the Amp ought to be a really great product.

Sound quality, driving quality speakers, is excellent.It is expensive, as are all Sonos, but there is little alternative.I am having ongoing trouble with WiFi interference, that Sonos support have yet to accept is even a problem.[Two Years On - and Update]Sonos were never able to solve the WiFi problems that plagued my whole setup (four rooms).I ended up running network cables through the whole house, and everything has been reliable since. It took two years to do, hence the update.I still love the sound of this unit paired with B&W ceiling speakers. It provides power and detail as required.It also works very well with my turntable (phono amp required), which I have configured to automatically play on a pair of Sonos:3 speakers in another room.In conclusion: After two years of play, I am still loving my Sonos:AMP and would recommend. BUT: I do not believe the WiFi setup is as robust as they claim.

This is the original Sonos product and is truly a ground breaking product.What makes Sonos revolutionary is the complete focus on internet audio that includes at least three areas of excellence; delivering high quality audio; sourcing network based music; seamless controlFirstly Sonos is an audio product and spends a significant amount of time on sound quality of their product. While not being an expert on this I'll highlight one example that shows the levels of dedication they instil into their product. When you have two Sonos boxes around the house, they measure 'ping' response times between them and then factor in a delay in sound being produced at the master Sonos box so that the audio output at the two Sonos boxes is synchronised down to the millisecond level. Similar levels of attention to detail abound in the product and make it an excellent audio device.The real excellence of the product though comes in how it sources neworked audio. Whether this is from a local computer, or NAS, internet radio, or internet music service such as Spotify, Rhapsody or many others. You have access to more music than you ever have had below at the touch of a button. I'd strongly recommend people try out a free trial Spotify or similar service to see what the experience is like.The last revolutionary aspect though is the level of control you can have over the Sonos box. Control apps available on any tablet device allow you to control audio around the house at the touch of a button. Prior to the arrival of Sonos people would spend serious money getting control systems installed all of which are made redundant by app level control.Absolutely fantastic product if you can afford it.

it's solid and very well made.the speaker connections hold the bare wire firmly in place with spring loaded clips.it's also very quiet, the solid aluminium casing deals with heat dissipation, thus cutting out the need for a noisy fan.once setup, you don't need it to be in sight. just in a ventilated space (I have mine out of sight on top of a kitchen cabinet).only the speakers need to be visible (better if ceiling mounted, or high up pointing down).it's very simple to set up, and add to your current system. within the controller software you can add another device, then when prompted (you have 2minutes to do it) push the volume up and mute button together for a second, then it connects up using your existing home wifi.if you don't have wifi, you can plug in network cables, but that just defeats the object of a wireless speaker system in the house.the 50w per channel is more than enough for a modest pair of speakers. even at half volume my 40w speakers can deafen in a room 5x5m and 2.5m high.I was expecting it to be a bit smaller - - must've mixed up the dimensions with the CONNECT or BRIDGE.still, no matter.despite the pictures (even on the manufacturers site), it's almost as big as the PLAY:3 speakers, just so you are aware.

[Original review September 2011]My wife bought one recently but it was dead on arrival!We already had a ZP120 and ZP90, so we knew what to expect.And when I say it was dead, I mean completely dead!So she returned it and got a full refund.Anyway, I took a chance by ordering another one, and we've finally got our second working ZP120.Despite the above problem, I'm still a fan of the system.It is very quick and easy to set up.It works particularly well if you have a NAS or any sort of file server that's always on.That way, you don't have to wait for a computer to start up before you can listen to your music.For a controller, I have tried an old Windows laptop, an iPod Touch, and a Windows netbook. They all work well.As others have said, you need at least one Sonos device to be wired to your network / router, because Sonos uses its own proprietary wireless network. The advantage of this is that, with multiple players, you can play music in more than one room, and have it perfectly synchronised. (You can also play different music in each room, or group multiple players however you like.)The radio feature is fun - it provides a simple and convenient way to listen to internet radio stations from around the world. Play a station from, say, Phoenix Arizona in your living room with a few taps on your controller!You can also use it to search for radio shows and "listen again".I use a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 10.1 speakers as I've not got much room, and I'm satisfied with the sound quality. I tend to switch on the Loudness control which boosts bass and treble at low volumes to compensate for the way the human ear works. I also often apply a little bass boost - or a lot, depending on the type of music!There are one or two minor irritations with the iPod touch app, e.g. you can't always go back to the previous screen, and it can take a few seconds to reconnect to your WiFi network and find the Sonos devices.But I still think it's the best system out there at the moment.[Added 24/5/2012]Most of the time when I try and listen to an old radio program, it says "unable to connect to radiotime". Tech support can't seem to fix it. Live internet radio is OK.[Added 2/9/2012]Someone's been hard at work improving things - it now fails just as much, but says "unable to connect to TuneIn", instead of "unable to connect to RadioTime"...
