Choosing the Perfect Multi-Room Audio System: Sonos vs Savant

CHOOSING THE PERFECT MULTI-ROOM AUDIO SYSTEM: SONOS VS SAVANT

LEARN WHICH DISTRIBUTED AUDIO TECHNOLOGY GOES BETTER WITH YOUR UNIQUE HOME.

Adding music to your home is one of the easiest ways to make your spaces more comfortable and inviting. By choosing the right music for the occasion, you can set the mood to enjoy different activities. For example, you can reproduce classical music while working in your private home office, a happy salsa playlist while making dinner for your family, and smooth jazz to have drinks with your spouse on a romantic date night by the pool.

Did you know that all of the experiences above can be effortlessly created with a multi-room audio system? At Avidia, we partner with several audio manufacturers. Sonos and Savant are two of them, and we often get clients confused about which sound system is the best. If you are wondering the same thing, keep reading this blog! We will explore the main features of both technologies and tell you which you should integrate into your Highland Park, IL, home.

THE SONOS EXPERIENCE

Sonos is commonly known for its wireless speakers solutions, which allow you to connect the speakers throughout your home wirelessly. This is usually preferred by homeowners that want a faster installation, as you won’t need to deal with cables. But how does this work? Sonos systems use your Wi-Fi network to communicate with your speakers and keep your devices connected with one another. Once you’ve set up your Sonos Amp or speaker system, you can control your devices through a user-friendly app on your smartphone and get access to native streaming services like Spotify and Tidal. These speaker systems are also equipped with Apple AirPlay 2 technology, allowing you to stream your favorite audio content easily.

THE SAVANT PRO EXPERIENCE

One of the things we love the most about Savant systems is that they can provide you with a high-end entertainment experience, even though AV solutions are just a tiny part of everything this technology can do. Savant is a smart home automation controller that allows you to manage your audio installations, as well as your lighting, climate, security systems, and even your energy consumption. This makes it a perfect addition to any home that needs more comfortable and luxurious spaces. 

When it comes to their sound systems, you’ll be pleased to know Savant offers powerful networked audio solutions. Through its IP Audio technology, you can reproduce any sound source to any speaker through your network cables. Enjoy the same ease-of-use as Sonos but at a greater scale–as it allows for systems of up to 96 end points. You’ll also get greater versatility in control. Use the intuitive Savant app or go beyond with the integration of elegant touchpads, keypads, and voice commands. 

SO WHICH ONE SHOULD I CHOOSE: SAVANT VS SONOS? 

It all comes down to the unique needs of your family. If you already have a smart home automation system in place, such as Control4, integrating Sonos devices into your system might be a great option for you, as you can enjoy the stellar sound experience from these speakers while keeping your smart home experience just as you’ve always known it. 

On the other hand, if you still haven’t experienced firsthand the luxury of customizing your surroundings to your preferences, we highly recommend looking into Savant. This will not only help you boost your music-listening experience, but it will also boost your entire lifestyle and easily scale with your family’s needs. 

At Avidia, we are deeply committed to helping you bring more fun and joy to every area of your home. Are you ready to incorporate one of these technologies for multi-room audio? Contact us right here to learn more about it.
