Sonos Setup Using Controller
If you don’t have digital music stored on your computer, or don’t use Windows® or
Macintosh OS X® operating systems, you can put the Sonos System Setup CD away in a
safe place and use the handheld Controller to set up your Sonos Digital Music System.
If you do have digital music stored on a computer or a network-attached storage (NAS)
device, the computer directories or folders that contain your music files must be shared
so that the Sonos Digital Music System can access them. Before you begin, enable file
sharing on each computer that holds the music files you want to access.The Sonos
Digital Music System will recognize many standard shared folders on your computer or
network-attached storage (NAS) device. For additional information, visit our Web site at
