The Sonos® ZonePlayer™ 100 (ZP100) brings great
sounding music to any and every room in your house. And we do mean every room.
That's because the wireless ZP100, with its built-in
amplifier, will work anywhere you've ever dreamed of having music.
With 50W per channel of power and a THD+N <.02%,
you can count on superior audio quality playback—without hisses, crackles or
hums. All you have to do is plug it in, connect your choice of speakers and
you've got a room filled with music.
You can even connect the ZP100 to your favourite CD
or MP3 player and listen to that music on all the other ZonePlayers in your
house.
Wireless, multi-room digital music
Built-in wireless capability: ZonePlayers can go
anywhere and connect wirelessly when a wired Ethernet connection is not

cable.
SonosNet™: A secure AES encrypted, peer-to-peer
wireless mesh network that streams music wirelessly to other ZonePlayers,
avoiding sources of wireless interference while ensuring synchronous music
playback Multi-zone synchronous playback: Plays the same song
simultaneously in up to 32 different zones without echoes or delays.
