Summary

  • Sonos fans are having a good week with the introduction of a sale for existing customers, as well as the Victrola Stream Onyx turntable being discounted by more than half price.
  • The turntable, which turned out to be the entry-level model in Victrola’s ‘Works with Sonos’ range, is on sale at Woot for 350.
  • The discount ends on February 28 and the Onyx allows users to play vinyl records through their Sonos system without needing any additional equipment.
  • It looks similar to the more expensive models in the range, thanks to its compact design, metal platter and an illuminated volume control.
  • To cut costs, however, Victrola used cheaper thick moulded plastic for the Onyx rather than higher-quality materials and it has a less expensive Audio-Technica VM95E cartridge.
  • It also cannot stream records to non-Sonos devices via Wi-Fi, something that the more expensive models can do.
