“While the new Sonos Amp doesn’t include wire strippers or a microwave oven (it does come with those cool thumbscrew banana plugs, though), it most certainly is the Swiss Army knife-equivalent in the Sonos product line. I couldn’t test all of the possible configurations, but one thing I discovered immediately was that, for two-channel audio, the Sonos Amp is definitely a ballsy powerhouse. It had more than enough “oomph” to convey the strong bass lines in both Benny Blanco’s “Eastside (with Halsey & Khalid)” and Charlie Puth’s “The Way I Am” without losing any punch. At the same time, the vocals and guitar interplay in the unadorned, acoustic version of Lotte’s “Auf beiden Beinen (Akustik Version)” showed the Amp’s delicate side. I heard a total absence of coloration, along with a beautiful sense of space, on both the melodic, laid back “The Windmills of Your Mind” by Triple Standard and the more boisterous, live version of “Juste One P’tite Nuite” by Canadian band Les Colocs.”
