Do you use multiple sources for your music, such as iTunes, Spotify, Sirius, and Pandora?

EQUIPMENT AND SETUP
The Play:3 in its base form is two components. Component one is a small white box called the bridge that you connect to your wireless router. Component two is the speaker.
Setup is a breeze. Really.
You plug the Bridge into your wireless router and plug it in. Then you place your speaker and plug it in. Once done, you load the install software onto your computer. The software will ask you to press a button on the bridge and two buttons on the speakers to sync everything up. The controller software will then launch, and you simply point it to your music file and enter any credentials that are required for streaming services (such as Pandora).
That’s it. You are done. Go listen to music! All in all, setup was simple.
THE EXPERIENCE
The Sonos Play:3 speakers sound surprisingly rich and full for their size. Volume is more than adequate, easily capable of filling a room with sound.
Controlling the stream of music was also easy and simple. I loaded the Sonos app onto my tablet, and then I had the ability to control everything about the music…from volume to playlist…changing music sources on the fly.

In the end you will be hard pressed to find another system that competes with the sound quality and simple installation that the Sonos Play:3 delivers. Music sounds clear and loud, and setup could not be made easier. The Play:3 is a great solution to those looking to stream music throughout their home.
SPECIAL DEAL
Target is running an in-store only promotion from May 27, 2012 -June 9, 2012 for a free wireless bridge ($49.99 value) with a purchase of a Sonos Play:3 or Play:5 system. This is an unadvertised special and with the whole Father’s Day and Graduation period coming up. A gift like this could really make anyone a ‘gift giving hero’ during the whole Dads & Grads thing.
