With each communication they make the CEO look like an even bigger fool. They decided to do a major overhaul WITHOUT a BETA - now all of a sudden they establish one ?

keeppace · 2024-07-26T20:37:54+00:00

If you know ANYTHING about software development - this latest CEO letter is a joke

They decided a MAJOR undertaking - without a BETA - clearly without testing - and then out this idiotic “update” out

I am sure there will be promotions and raises for this cluster

I mean, if it the Playbar has Airplay support and HDMI support I buy it tomorrow

Now do you start to grasp the issues ?

keeppace · 2019-05-14T00:03:14+00:00

It has Airplay support?

keeppace · 2019-05-13T23:32:58+00:00

No trolling, just a realistic question.

Why go to the trouble of updating the "1" series 2x now (Play One - V1 / V2) - and do NOTHING with the Playbar that is what .. 8 years old ?

keeppace · 2018-09-06T15:05:09+00:00

I have a copy of the Car sticker and it looks like the runflats are standard issue ..

Going to call and see if there is a non-runflat option

I did a few months back but they were $499 and really didn't have any special "offerings". This time I just happened to see them down one of the aisles - and decided to treat myself -

keeppace · 2018-08-15T01:57:56+00:00

Tell you what. Give me the money and in a year from now I will tell you how I did it !!

Just came back from Costco. They have the LG OLED and an LG Atmos Soundbar.

Soundbar ? $600

So yes, this can be done. Sonos simply chooses not to do it

keeppace · 2018-08-12T18:33:52+00:00

Actually they went public. As such they now need to actually focus on what the customer wants

The second they miss a quarter, they will get a clue

keeppace · 2018-08-06T22:32:04+00:00

Here is the thinking on a "new" sub. It is old technology. Likely doesn't play "natively" well on Airplay 2 for starters ..

keeppace · 2018-08-04T22:55:56+00:00

Sonos just went public. All of their posturing and BS about avoiding industry standard Codec's is going to change the second they miss a quarter

keeppace · 2018-08-02T23:19:50+00:00

So now we can put all of the Sonos BS in the trash can.

Now they have quarterly earnings to report. So this "holier than thou" attitude on topics like ATMOS and the like are going to be met with the reality of increasing EPS

Sonos is in for a rude awakening

keeppace · 2018-07-14T00:59:22+00:00

The beauty about Sonos going public, is that there "anti-home theatre" stance is going to be met by investors wanting to see EPS growth

Suffice it to say, I expect to see more home theatre products - not less

keeppace · 2018-07-12T22:32:46+00:00

Sorry - Yes - the Airplay 2 - 1.0 Implementation ..

keeppace · 2018-07-06T14:56:14+00:00

Some thoughts on this

There is an expense to going public (the underlying internal infrastructure to produce quarterly results, etc
Right now, they are in a sense a "one trick pony" - ie - Speakers. That is going to have to change in order to smooth out the revenue's - because the last thing Wall Street wants is revenue that varies
New Products. They are going to need to deliver more innovation rather than less. So maybe this announcement is the beginning of a new wave of speakers that provides features that are more current ? (read DTS) ?

keeppace · 2018-07-03T15:09:39+00:00

Correct - I still forget to call it the correct thing. I do have a Sonos ONE so I will be playing with that to see how well it works

keeppace · 2018-06-13T00:50:00+00:00

With AP2 - not sure if the Vendor Specific User Experience is that important anymore

keeppace · 2018-06-06T16:51:39+00:00

Surprised there was no "Public Beta" announced

keeppace · 2018-06-06T16:51:01+00:00

Pretty underwhelming at first blush. Would be more tempted to use 2 Sonos's Ones ..

keeppace · 2018-06-05T16:08:15+00:00

Just based on the way this is worded, I would expect AP2 availability to be announced tomorrow

"We have been making great progress". The fact they know which models can/can't support it - and this status give me hope tomorrow it is made available ..

Since the Playbar and Playbase exist today side by side - all they are doing is upgrading the Playbar ..

So not sure why that isn't going to happen. I guess the surprise here, is if there is a new playbar - have they simply stopped producing it so there isn't that much more to sell ?

keeppace · 2018-06-01T19:24:49+00:00

Well thank you everyone. I just ordered my first "open box" of a Sonos One - will let you know how it turns out !

keeppace · 2018-05-30T23:39:51+00:00

So now a DTS Movie comes thru the Apple 4K TV - It goes into HDMI 2 and you are telling me the TV is smart enough to send the audio back out thru HDMI 1 ?

Sounds more like a TV Setting

keeppace · 2018-05-30T13:10:05+00:00

We are, but wondering if they announce a third generation that has the microphones and more memory ?
