I'm finishing up a 9 zone Sonos sytems right now as part of a whole home project so I was curious and took a look numbers:
$ 3100 - Qty. 9 Sonos Connect
$ 7700 - Qty. 22 Leon Axis AX-V6
$ 3000 - Qty. 2 Niles SI-1230 Amps
$ 1000 - Qty. 4 Outdoor speakers yet to be determined
$14800 - Hardware Total
$ 3200 - Pre-wire for speakers
$ 975 - Paint speakers
$ 2000 - Installation
$ 6175 - Non Hardware Total
If you add it up that's a total of $21k for about $3k worth of Sonos equipment. On top of this there is also rack space, networking and UPS capacity that could be factored in too.
Paul took exactly what i was going to write and beat me to it.
as you can see its pretty easy to make some really good money with sonos!
you have got to stop thinking of sonos being a closed play3/5 system and make it "custom" obviously it is not perfect for every job but for most of them it fits right on in.
Also on average my jobs get 2-4 in-wall ipad docks that get dedicated to the sonos app which usually equates to between $3500-$4800 of additional revenue just in pre-wire/trim out/actual ipad in-wall unit!
