We’re excited for Airfoil to power audio streaming to even more great hardware! Get Airfoil for Mac 5.8 Nowįor over a decade, Airfoil has helped stream audio from your Mac to outputs all around your house. Like the Sonos hardware, we expect these devices will be compatible with Airfoil, once their firmware is updated. Much of this hardware is already available for purchase, and firmware updates to enable AirPlay on these devices are due at various points later this year. There are many more AirPlay 2 devices coming from Denon, Libratone, Marantz, and more. Sonos’s recent update made them the first third-party vendor to ship AirPlay 2 compatible speakers, but they won’t be the last. The Sonos One is a very worthy HomePod competitor, and its $199 price tag is just slightly more than half the cost of Apple’s smart speaker. That means that if you have an older Sonos system, you can just add a single new device to get AirPlay compatibility going throughout your home. That means that even non-AirPlay compatible speakers like Playbar or Play:1 can reap the sonic benefits of our AirPlay 2 integration, provided they’re grouped with one of our newer, AirPlay-friendly devices in the Sonos app. Of note for users with older Sonos hardware, you need just one AirPlay-compatible Sonos device to enjoy audio on your entire system.Įven though AirPlay 2 is only supported on Sonos One, Beam, Playbase, and Play:5, with any one of these speakers you can listen via AirPlay on your entire home sound system. If you’ve already got one of these AirPlay-compatible Sonos device, make sure its firmware is up to date, then update to Airfoil for Mac 5.8 to start streaming any audio from your Mac all around your house. Whatever mix of AirPlay, Bluetooth, and Chromecast devices you have, Airfoil can help you stream audio in sync to all of them at once.Ĭurrently, Sonos’s AirPlay-compatible hardware lineup consists of the Sonos One, Beam, Playbase, and second-generation Play:5. That means Airfoil can now help you play audio to even more devices. We’ve got big news for Airfoil today: Sonos compatibility! With the new Airfoil for Mac 5.8, you can stream any audio from your Mac to all of Sonos’s AirPlay-compatible devices. Posted By Paul Kafasis on July 21st, 2018
