Hi Everyone,
Wonder if someone can help me with the following question:
If I want to stream music (24-bit 44.1kHz/48kHz) directly from Amazon HD via the Sonos app (S2) in the latest Sonos Five. Does the Sonos Five need to be wired or can it stream that quality wireless as well?
I have a 100mb broadband speed so not a problem.
Looking forward to your answers.

This is rather a moot point, as you cannot (yet?) stream 24 bit files from any streaming service on Sonos.
Oh really, I misread this information then.
https://support.sonos.com/s/article/79?language=en_US
It says that 24 bit is supported in S2, so what does it mean?
What it should say on that page, and you’re right, it doesn’t (yet), is that 24 bit currently is for local streaming only. This was covered in the announcements thread, which you may not have seen, I’ll try to go find it and post a link for you. But I certainly agree that FAQ page is misleading.

You’re most welcome. I’ve put in a request to make that FAQ much more clear. We’ll see if that happens, but I completely get why you came up with that conclusion.
