With advancements in technology, the products we use in our day-to-day lives are always changing, especially in our kitchens! Listening to music while cooking is always a go-to mood booster for many, but the technology we use for this has changed with time.
In the modern area, you would use your headphones or bring a Bluetooth speaker into your kitchen. Headphones can be dangerous since you can’t hear the beeping of your appliances, and a speaker can be a pain if it’s taking up counter space or constantly needs charging. But now there’s a new and exciting third option, CrownSound™ by ZLINE. Explore ZLINE CrownSound™ Range Hoods If you’re anything like us, cooking and music go hand in hand. That’s why we were so excited when we got the opportunity to take a hands-on look at ZLINE’s exclusive CrownSound™ crown molding for their range hoods. CrownSound™ is ZLINE’s revolutionary new concept that brings sound into your range hood.
Gone are the days of having to bring a speaker into your kitchen. With CrownSound™, the speaker is always there, making your daily routine more convenient. It fits snuggly in the crown molding of your range hood and takes up no extra space in your kitchen.
This speaker system is no gimmick either. We were blown away by the quality of sound we heard when we first paired our phones.
If you were to walk into your kitchen with your eyes closed and listen to a song on CrownSound™, your ears would tell you that the sound was coming from one of those expensive speakers you see in million-dollar homes that are installed in the ceiling; the sound is that good.

FAQs
What is ZLINE CrownSound™?
ZLINE CrownSound™ is an innovative range hood feature that integrates high-fidelity Bluetooth speakers directly into the crown molding of compatible ZLINE range hoods. It allows you to listen to music, podcasts, or audio content in your kitchen without using external speakers or headphones.
How does CrownSound™ work?
CrownSound™ connects to your phone or device via Bluetooth and plays audio through six built-in, high-fidelity speakers housed inside the range hood’s crown molding. Once paired, the system delivers clear, room-filling sound while you cook or entertain.
Is the sound quality actually good?
Yes. CrownSound™ is designed to deliver crisp highs, clean mids, and enhanced bass that feels similar to built-in ceiling speakers found in high-end homes. It performs well across music genres and spoken audio like podcasts or audiobooks.
How far does the Bluetooth connection reach?
The Bluetooth connection has a range of up to approximately 40 feet, allowing you to move freely around your kitchen or nearby spaces without losing connection.
Does CrownSound™ take up extra kitchen space?
No. CrownSound™ is built directly into the crown molding of the range hood, so it does not use counter space, cabinet space, or require an external speaker setup.
Is CrownSound™ difficult to install?
Installation is simple and typically takes only a few minutes. For compatible range hoods, you remove the existing crown molding, install the speaker components, and secure the CrownSound™ molding in place.
Can CrownSound™ be added to an existing ZLINE range hood?
Yes, CrownSound™ can be added to many compatible ZLINE range hoods by replacing the existing crown molding. Compatibility depends on the specific hood model.
Are there range hoods that come with CrownSound™ pre-installed?
Yes. ZLINE offers select range hood models that come bundled with CrownSound™ already installed, providing a turnkey solution for homeowners upgrading their kitchen.
Does CrownSound™ affect the performance of the range hood?
No. CrownSound™ is completely independent of the hood’s ventilation system and does not reduce airflow, CFM performance, or lighting functionality.
Is CrownSound™ unique to ZLINE?
Yes. CrownSound™ is an industry-exclusive feature developed by ZLINE and is not currently offered by other range hood manufacturers.
Who is CrownSound™ best suited for?
CrownSound™ is ideal for homeowners who enjoy music while cooking, entertain frequently, or want a cleaner kitchen setup without extra devices. It is especially appealing for modern kitchens focused on integrated technology and convenience.
Do I need to replace my range hood to get CrownSound™?

Is CrownSound™ worth it?
For homeowners who value convenience, sound quality, and integrated design, CrownSound™ offers a practical and stylish alternative to countertop speakers or headphones, enhancing the overall kitchen experience without clutter.
