music: sonos

yall should know this by now, but i'm a HUGE music fan and so is lp. in fact, that's definitely one of the reasons that we were initially attracted to each other. we both love music and not just plain old regular music but we love finding new artists and independent bands and all that. music is a HUGE part of our lives. now, what i'm sure i have also talked about is how amazing lp is with technology. thank goodness because i'm a technology idiot.

when we first started dating, lp told me all about this music system he was going to get. it was called a sonos system. the idiot version of how it works: you have one/two/three/a million "zones" in your house which plays music from the internet, your hard drive or, in our case, a record player. each zone can be connected to one another and play the same thing, or if you'd like, can be disconnected from each other to play different music. you can also turn zones off, so for instance, if you are in the bedroom and want music, but don't want it to play in your kitchen, you just disconnect the kitchen and you can play music in your bedroom. one of the best things about it is that there are no wires. so you can have all this music without wires running all through your house.

we absolutely love this system. we have several of their amps:


each of these amps are hooked up to speakers to play our music (of course lp has fancy speakers that i don't even know about!!). we also just got their new Play3, which is pretty much like a portable speaker that plays your sonos. we use it in the bathroom and unhook it when we have people over to take it outside.
with your sonos, you can use rhapsody, which is one of my favorite music services ever. you pay less than $20 a month and can play allllll the music you want through the sonos. or, if you get a rhapsody supported player (like the sansa) you can run around with your rhapsody.

overall, we love our sonos. it is seriously one of the best things we have ever gotten. ever. we play music everyday and love listening and dancing around our house to all the music we can play through our sonos!!!!
