Sonos music player won’t have remote controls now

Sonos has the reputation of being a pioneer in the manufacture and development of superior quality Hi-Fi music systems. The hot news around the international market is that the company has declared that it won’t be making use of the remote controls from now on for its music systems.

 

The company has said that it has brought an end to the hardware controller which they were manufacturing for a long time. The hardware controller for the Sonos music systems was known as CR200 controller.

 

Some of the key features of CR200 controller were;

1850 mAh Lithium-Ion Polymer battery

Controls the music at any point where the Sonos Zone Player is installed

3.5 inches of screen display size

640 x 480 pixels of screen display resolution

Capacitive Touchscreen followed by an on-screen keyboard

Sonos has stated in an official statement that they will no longer sell the remote controller from 1st June of this year. Instead of that the customers making use of the Sonos music systems will have to depend up on the free software controllers that the Sonos Company is making available for purchase for the corresponding PC’s as well as Mac’s. Similar will be the case with the android smartphones as well as iOS based phones and tablets.
