Title: Commercial Music Service
Post by: chris georgiou on May 15, 2018, 10:01:03 AM
What do you guys use for commercial music service on Sonos? Anything that sounds better than others(less compression)? I got recommendations for Mood Mix and Sound Machine so far.

I've been using Rock Bot but not with Sonos. I use their supplied player which is actually a Bright Sign digital signage player that uses a USB-C audio output. I had my doubts until I tried it but it actually sounds pretty good. Sirius/XM is using the same player for their commercial internet service- another one you might want to consider.

If you are looking for a service that doesn't compress the dynamic range I don't think you will find any. These services normally aren't used in quiet environments.

Not Sonos specific, but MusicStyling/ ImageSound, and PlayNetworks are both pretty common.
