Review Score 5 out of 6

A gorgeous new controller makes this the best Sonos system ever – just take note of that high price.

Jam-packed with features, but it struggles to compete with the best.

Seagate's FreeAgent Theater is let down by clunky interface and lack of file support

Review Score 3 out of 6

While it might seem like a good idea, the Seagate FreeAgent Theater is more novelty than useful. And the price point is not as competitive as others in this range.
