So if I decide to stay in unsupported legacy mode how will I be able to administrate my system?

Will I be able to add components? (I might get components from environmental friendly people)

If not what happens if I also need to reset a component? Will that be bricked?

Will there be a legacy controller for all systems?

Thanks, since it’s over a thousand messages there it’s great to have these details collected separately like this. This sounds a lot like the kind of legacy options some of us wished for when the CR100 was EOL:ed.

Yes, it does. Ironic, isn’t it?

Truly ironic.

So re-add old products means I can reset those I have but not add others not previously in my system found 2nd hand?

Don’t know about that. Seems they are being purposefully scant on details until May.

OK, I see. We’ll have to wait.

Except it’s not accurate! Sonos requires that the same software on all devices in a network.

If you bought a new device on a higher version of software you would not be able to connect it to a legacy that work.

That’s why they’ve said that mixed systems of you and old components cannot be upgraded after may.

Except it is accurate. @Ryan S, can you please testify to the accuracy?

What they have said is split your networks so you have 2 Sonos setups. Old and new.

No details on how that will work. How phone controllers etc will manage which have / automatically get updated.

You can either do that, or leave them all as a legacy system. Legacy systems will not get the regular upgrades, but you will be able to add new products.

Now as I have requested confirmation from @Ryan S, why don’t we wait until he clarifies before escalating this disagreement, OK?
