Boutique Audio Brand Wrensilva Adds Sonos Functionality to Turntable System
Boutique hi-fi company Wrensilva announced Sonos compatibility in two high-end consoles that bring vinyl into the Sonos ecosystem. With the Wrensilva Sonos Edition Console ($4,999), users can listen to a record throughout the home through Sonos speakers and control the audio from the console without having to go through a phone app, they said. Once the volume is manually changed, the Sonos app automatically will update its settings, allowing the console to be controlled from any room, Wrensilva said. The collaboration shows how “vinyl and digital music can live together seamlessly,” said Sonos CEO Patrick Spence in a statement. The console, which can store 120 LPs, features a turntable and two Sonos Play:5 speakers inside a hardwood cabinet. The less expensive, more compact Wrensilva Sonos Edition Loft, sells for $2,499.
