dentalben Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Adding BT (Bluetooth) to a controller would be sick! Then a user could connect their mobile device and stream audio (Pandora, etc) without having to add Sonos to their setup. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Interesting idea, but in many installations controllers are nowhere near where people would want to connect the BT device.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have experienced this with a bluetooth headset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettB0727 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I agree with Ryan. It would be nice if there was a broader adoption of something over WiFi, similar to Apple's Airplay, but with support from the Android and Microsoft community as well. It will allow for coverage over the entire house since there is probably WiFi, instead of the limited range of BT. It would also allow for video streaming support too!dentalben, I'm not sure what you system layout is, but if you are using Apple devices, a good option is an Airport Express if you want audio over WiFi(or an AppleTV if you want Audio+Video).

ILoveC4 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I doubt I'd use this anyways....it is so easy to use my phone or a touchpanel to tell the system to play, and it doesn't tie up my phone and eat its battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I don't think the *idea* is bad, but I'd think something in this sort of form factor might be more applicable:http://blog.homeauto.com/default.asp?Display=763RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drro Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Very cool, Ryan. Don't need, but kinda "want" anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
