Just before Christmas, I installed one of the new Sonos S5 zone-players in our dining room, thus expanding the reach of music through the house.  Now, the beauty of Thomas Blug’s Blue Valley can snake after me across the house or the Grateful Dead’s irrepressible Bertha can shake every room in unison.

The sound-quality from the compact little S5 is incredible; full, deep and rich.  The unit was supplied by Andrew Cherry of Digital Living Solutions and, although he set it up for me, installation is beautifully simple as an add-on to my existing system.
