Anyone looking for a compact kitchen radio, do it right and really good music, in a beautiful wood enclosure, digital channels, dominated, streaming services, deals and also plays CDs, will eventually in the name of the Neuss-based manufacturer Sonoro. Ingenious contraptions that take over in the bedroom, the Wake-up call, or next to the shower installation, are also among the specialties of the house. Now Sonoro dares new Terrain, with a music system to classic HiFi-recipes. The sit up: he Can exist in one of the established brands in the densely populated environment?
The complete System consists of three components: the Receiver Maestro, which combines all of the electronics and 1300 euros, and the speakers, Orchestra for the pair price is 1000 Euro, which saw only a few days ago the official light of the world. Before we pried the Receiver out of its box, donned only once the supplied cotton gloves. The device is in a high-gloss lacquered wood Cabinet, the fingerprints, mercilessly showing. In our case, hands and eyes met a snow-white surface, a black Version is also available.
In the shimmer of the Dwelling, the receiver for analog FM and digital DAB Radio, W-Lan-Station, plug in power amplifiers for access to Internet radio and some streaming services of Spotify on Tidal to Qobuz, an amplifier with 200-Watt Switching, and a CD drive. The usual interfaces to connect with other program sources. Two high-level inputs, one optical and one coaxial digital input, as well as a connection for a record player with magnetic system, can be found on the back of the device. Smartphones to play, transported to Bluetooth the music. The short-range radio can also control wireless headphones. And the contact to the speakers, robust screw terminals make.
The thing only works with iOS devices
The preparation of the device to practical use requires a bit of patience. DAB Radio requires a search, W-Lan needs to connect to the Router, Bluetooth with peripheral devices pairs, the streaming services want to create accounts. A 70-page strong manual guides you through the necessary procedures, the remote control facilitates many a step. We prefer to have downloaded an appropriate App, and everything from your Smartphone done. Another App, the Sonoro Room Correction, you can optimize the sound, to fat basses, slim down electronic waste. For this purpose, the mobile unit sends test signals to the system, its built-in microphone captures the playback and derives the Filter settings. However, the thing only works with iOS devices. In the Android world, the diversity of the microphones would be too great a risk.
at the end of it all, the more support a child, not least thanks to the colour LCD Occluder is on the front of the device. It displays everything clearly, from the streaming signet to the station logo. And when a CD is played, the track name on the image surface. The automatic access to an Internet database makes it possible.
