The Sonos ZP-90 is a fabulous product. Massive amounts of time have spent on design.
The ZP-90 has one of the best interfaces around. It's obvious of the efforts put into the functionality of the unit, and not so much into the audio quality.
This is where we come in!
This is indeed a product worthy of a Wyred 4 Sound modification. We can transform this great product into a killer sonic bargain. Why? Because it's built well, has many bells, but no whistles. We will make up for the last 20% that makes the product a joy to listen to. They have made the sonos right on everything but the performance.
The Sonos Reclocker modification is now available. This upgrade entirely replaces the mediocre Cirrius Losgic CODAC and the associated high jitter clocks. The mod was designed to integrate the SONOS system into a high end audio system through an outboard Digital to Analog Coverter.
The upgrade consists of installing a new custom Wyred 4 Sound designed PCB that contains:
- High-end sample rate converter made by TI
- Low jitter clock with less than .5ps jitter
- Low noise power supply for the clock and SR
- Micro processor controller
- Input & output digital buffers
This new custom board is installed in the SONOS and directly converts the I²S into 96kHz up-sampled SPDIF. This new ultra clean low jitter signal is now available through both the Coax and Optical digital outputs. The SPDIF output's sample rate can also be factory configured to 48, 96, and 192kHz.
The sonic benefits are quite dramatic. An entire level of low level grunge (harsh) is removed from the sound. This improves the low level detail and imaging. The bass is now much tighter and controlled inner detail and transient attack are both greatly improved.
The upgraded ZP-90 in our system, with streaming lossless ripping CD's over my 100Mbps network, is now a tru high-end source.
Now with the ZP-90, you can enjoy the added benefits of SonosNet 2.0 which the ZP-80 did not offer. The latest wireless mesh network technology provides double the wireless range for whole-house coverage, ensuring synchronous music playback, and avoids sources of wireless interference. Which means the music gets to all the right rooms- near or far- at exactly the right time.
Price of modification plus shipping.
Please Note: We recommend the 96kHz mod. for best performance. Upon placing your order by email please confirm sample rate you would like.
