>> Sonosthesia is many things. It’s an accessible buyer’s guide that

>> blind people want to have explained in words. Sonosthesia contains a
>> detailed description of every currently available Sonos product, with clear

>> 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.
