Sonos Zoneplayer S5 can be controlled with your iPhone

Sonos, makers of multi-room music systems, has announced the Sonos ZonePlayer S5, a streaming audio system that can be controlled with an iPhone, iPod touch or any Sonos controller.

The S5 is a 5 -driver speaker system which can stream music from Internet radio stations or from your iTunes library.

To stream music to an S5, just hardwire it to your home network’s router or an Ethernet switch. Music can also be streamed wirelessly to S5 if you already have one ZonePlayer or Sonos ZoneBridge (sold separately for $119) connected to your router.

Once the Zoneplayer S5 is connected to your network, you can select and control your music using a dedicated Sonos controller (sold separately), the free Sonos iPhone app or controller software which can be installed on your computer.

Audio Support:

Audio formats supported include: compressed MP3, iTunes Plus, WMA (including purchased Windows Media downloads), AAC (MPEG4), Ogg Vorbis, Audible (format 4), Apple Lossless, Flac (lossless) music files, as well as uncompressed WAV and AIFF files. Apple “Fairplay”, AAC Enhanced and WMA Lossless formats are not supported.

Music services supported include Deezer, Last.fm, Napster, Pandora, Rhapsody, SIRIUS Internet Radio, and downloads from any service offering DRM-free tracks. (Many of these services are not available in Canada)

The S5 goes on sale in late October for $479.
