Critic Reviews

Sonos Connect Wireless Home Audio Receiver Reviewed (A Little Too Late) - HomeTheaterReview

hometheaterreview.com

The Sonos CONNECT Wireless HiFi Player has been a staple in wireless music systems for over a decade, evolving alongside the streaming industry. However, the announcement of its discontinuation for the newer Sonos Port, coupled with a lack of software updates for older models, has left many users frustrated. This abrupt transition has caused a backlash, as users are pushed to upgrade for continued support, despite having invested significantly in the system. While the CONNECT was a game-changer in its time, its legacy is now marred by Sonos' missteps in handling product lifecycle transitions.
