OK, in order to leverage my passions, I’ve decided to start blogging whenever I do something I’m excited about… simple as that – warts and all!
So, I’ve recently installed a fantastic Sonos house-wide wireless digital sound system. Perhaps I’ll write a separate post about my experiences some other time, if anyone replies indicating they’d be interested.
Anyway, the Sonos can tune into most internet radio stations which is fantastic. However, we have found that one of our favourites (BBC Radio 2) sounds pretty ropey – due to the compression used by the sounds of it.

So, a simple solution was to spend £20 on a this simple DAB radio tonight at Tesco. I’ve listened to it tonight and, on headphones, it sounds fantastic. The idea is to hook it up to my Sonos ZonePlayer 100 (ZP100) via the line-input. That way we can…
- Hear sumptuous DAB quality audio, far superior to streaming internet radio.
- Save internet bandwidth better used for work, browsing and blogging.
That’s it for now, I’ll spend time and effort in response to the amount of visits / responses I get.
Have a fantastic life until my next post
