Bebop,

i have used a SB3 and i am now using a sonos system.

from my experience, sonos was much much easier to set up.

the advantage for me is the sonos remote as my eyesight is rubbish and i cant see the sb3 screen from where i sit to listen to music.

sonos plays FLAC but not apple lossless.

i cant remember if sb3 does play apple lossless but i it does and you plan on getting an iPod the sb3 is the way to go.

personally i prefer sonos but thats just me.

cheers

john
