Give me a matrix any day. With real amps. Screw Sonos. I don't want apps and I don't want to pick up a phone or tablet. I don't want my system to be at the mercy of the weather or internet service or wifi. Or they updated the drivers and now it don't work.

I'm content having am/fm/hd/xm tuners and my cable boxes hooked in along with an Apple TV maybe even a sonos for streaming stuff and of course an old fashioned CD player a input for a reel to reel and even a phonograph... along with a few jacks for iPod and iPhones

And god forbid an old fashioned keypad on the wall in each zone for basic control and volume. All tied into some kind of control system.

I'd be the guy with a sonos hooked to a killer ada amp. Lol
Ed will be known as the Tiger Woods of the integration business, followed closely with the renaming of his company to "Hotties A/V". The tag line will be "We like big racks and tight holes"...

Don't mean to derail but... You did everything right and even went way above & beyond to please the customer, on something that was not even your fault.
That was 'not' a good customer to begin with, you just didn't know it at the time. Dude was a dick in disguise. You really didn't lose anything.

Sonos is the dick in disguise. F that outfit.
I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's AV trouble, a man alone.

With cost not being an issue then an amp with DSP & digital inputs would be the best all around. So in my case using Sonance in-ceiling, pair of VP Round speakers per room, this would be the Sonance DSP Amps. Overkill power wise though.

Then which direction would you go, DAC(s) & regular multi-channel amp like the Parasound 1250 or Multi Channel Amp w/EQ & analog inputs like the AudioControl Director Series?

We were underwhelmed with the new Sonance DSP amps. Would expect something better from that company.

Parasound for our amp needs.
