The Sonos CC100 Charging Cradle is specially designed to hold your Sonos Controller CR100, and it also doubles as a charger. Mount this cradle on a wall (custom-fit bracket, anchors and screws are included) or place it on a table. Either way, when the Controller is resting in the cradle, you'll know it is safe, secure, and charging -- you can even continue to use your Controller as it regains power.
Note: The CC100 does not come with an AC adapter. It is designed for use with the AC adapter that is included with the CR100.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great, but overpriced
I love the Sonos system and gave it 5 stars, but the stand seems a tad overpriced at $50. It is solid / well built though.
Rating:  - Sonos Controller Recharger
Works like a champ. Very practical and complementary to the Sonos Controller. But I can't rate it 5 stars because it is way too expensive for being essentially a battery recharger for the controller.
Rating: - Even more expensive than it appears
Because this cradle does not include the power supply, it is even more expensive than it first appears. This is an attractive piece of plastic without power. You'll need to buy the power supply to keep your controller charged while it rests in the cradle.
Here is the power supply:
Sonos AC100 Charging Adapter for Sonos CR100 Controller
Unfortunately, there aren't any aftermarket alternatives, so the price gouging continues.

Rating:  - Nice!
If you have the Sonos system, you need this. Way easier than plugging the controller in every time.
Rating: - Worth having, but I wish they weren't so greedy
All this does is hold the Sonos controller you already have and feed it electricity from the Sonos charger you already have. It's "worth" the price for the convenience, because not having one is inconvenient (more on that below), but there's no way that this convenience should have a $50 price tag. It's a classic case of charging your customers what they're willing to pay, not what something cost to produce, which is good business but just smacks of greediness when the rest of the Sonos system is so high class.
I thought I'd just get by without the charging cradle, but:
- the socket on the controller where you have to plug in the charging wire is hidden behind a little flap of rubber which is finicky about opening; it's more work to charge the Sonos controller, without the cradle, than any other rechargeable thingy I have (iPod, cell phone, etc). So, the cradle is more necessary for the Sonos than these other devices, in my opinion.
- if you leave the controller unplugged from the charger for too long (not sure exactly how long, more than a few hours, less than a day) then it goes into a low-power standby mode to save the battery, and it takes a long time to wake up from standby.
So the upshot is if you have the cradle, the controller behaves beautifully -- set it in the cradle when you're not using it, and it's always charged and instantly ready for use. If you don't have the cradle, you're stuck carefully prying the rubber port cover out of the way and plugging ... Read More
