>Hi everyone, today I'm writing to let you know about my latest eBook.
>If you spend time around people who are serious 
>about audio, you’ll probably have heard of Sonos.
>
>Sonos produces a range of smart speakers and 
>audio peripherals, all of which can be 
>controlled by an app. Purchase one for the room 
>in which you listen to audio the most, then if 
>you find yourself gripped by Sonosthesia (a term 
>I've coined to define the condition of being 
>totally fixated with Sonos) build up your system 
>over time so it’s an integrated, multi-room 
>experience. Use one app to control all the music 
>in every room you have Sonos equipment. It’s 
>powerful, elegant, and the speakers sound incredible.
>
>Sonosthesia is a comprehensive guide to the 
>Sonos ecosystem from a blindness perspective.
>
>Sonos equipment has a justified reputation for 
>being best-in-class, but it’s not inexpensive. 
>If you’re curious about what Sonos can do and 
>how accessible it is before you take the plunge, 
>buying a copy of Sonosthesia is a small 
>investment to help you better understand whether 
>a Sonos system would meet your needs.
>
>If you have Sonos already and want to ensure 
>you’re using it to the max, or you’re 
>thinking about expanding your system with 
>another product from the range, there’s plenty in Sonosthesia for you too.
>
>Sonosthesia is many things. It’s an accessible 
>buyer’s guide that offers plenty of 
>information sighted people can glean from the 
>pictures but blind people want to have explained 
>in words. Sonosthesia contains a detailed 
>description of every currently available Sonos 
>product, with clear information about their 
>layout and why you might choose one product over 
>another in a given situation. Whether you want 
>to build a wireless surround sound system in 
>your living room for an immersive experience, 
>connect Sonos to your existing rack system, or 
>get just the right speaker for a room in your 
>home, Sonosthesia explains it all.
>
>Sonosthesia is a users’ guide, all written 
>from a blindness perspective. You’ll get 
>detailed instructions about how to set up your 
>first Sonos product even when you can’t see 
>the pretty indicator lights, and easily add devices to the system over time.
>
>The book provides clear and detailed 
>step-by-step instructions to help you get to 
>know your Sonos app. iOS or Windows are 
>referenced specifically, and much of the 
>information can also be extrapolated to Mac and Android.
>
>Sonosthesia is a tips and tricks treasure-trove. 
>You’ll learn how easy it is to have Sonos play 
>your favourite radio show in a particular room 
>at a given time, pipe audio into one or multiple 
>rooms, ensure that you can play music stored on 
>all the computers and devices in your home, and many more tips and tricks.
>
>Sonosthesia is a service guide. It contains a 
>comprehensive guide to all the services 
>available through Sonos, with a description of 
>each one. So if you already own a Sonos but 
>you’re not sure about whether signing up for 
>some of the services might benefit you, tap into 
>all the information you need, all in one place.
>
>Sonosthesia is a geek’s guide. Even if 
>you’re a Sonos veteran, there’s something 
>for you in the chapter on advanced topics. Learn 
>about the web server built into every Sonos 
>product and how you can access it. Third-party 
>apps provide Apple Watch support, help you 
>broadcast your voice around your house and more. 
>By installing some third-party software, even 
>control your Sonos system using a web browser on 
>devices where there’s no official app, like a 
>blindness proprietary note taker.
>
>Sonosthesia covers integrating your set-up with 
>popular protocols such as AirPlay, Bluetooth and Chromecast audio.
>
>In short, Sonosthesia is the definitive guide to 
>Sonos from a blindness perspective. Whether you 
>need to make sense of the Sonos range, want to 
>ascertain whether a Sonos system is for you, or 
>you’re a long-time user, there’s something to learn in Sonosthesia.
>
>And it can be yours right now for just $24.95.
