This is me: I am a 79 year old guy who began my hi-fi journey in 1971. Last year I upgraded from an Arc to an Ultra; I hear a positive difference. My rear surrounds are in-ceiling Klipsch speakers powered by a Sonos Amp; works fine, a real improvement from the SL Ones, which I sold. My Sub 3 is in the hardware mix, too. Good device.

Late to the party I guess, but I just heard about Sonosequencr a few days ago, and I am interested. I am reading all I can find on the internet, but need more information from real users.

I would choose between a pair of Era 100s or Fives as exernal l/r speakers, but space and budget have me looking to the Era 100s. Looks like I still have a 15% discount coming from Sonos. I would love the Fives, but WAF would prevail. Not sure there is enough audio info to make good use of the Fives.

Hardware choice is the easy part. I would like to hear from my fellow users about your experiences with the software. Now, I understand it is a third party product that relies on the Ultra’s internals and that exist, but not used. And that Sonos could either make the software legit or shut it down, either at their whim.

I am not worried much by those who claim setup difficulty. I have never had a problem with S2, and I am not afraid of having to re-do the config a time or two or three.

Please tell me your positives (improved SQ/soundstage/separation, etc., and the negatives you are experiencing with your hardware and software, as well as any shortcuts, hints, etc. you may have found. Please understand that I want to use this primarily for movies, tv, sports. I have a full-throated surround sound AVR. and an integrated amp in my basement for music, from 2.1 to 5.1. So better music playback is secondary to movies, etc.

Thanks for your help. I know I can purchase the Era 100s from Sonos and return them no harm/no foul if I am unhappy. But I am looking for your experience and insight.
