Just thought I would add a positive regarding the new Sonos One.
Only had it for 2 days but I find it a superb piece of kit. Yes, there will be work in progress, and it will change, but overall it works very well for me. Might even get another one as the wife has collared this one! Doubt it will be discounted for Black Friday?

    Sorry for the delay, neilandjan. While any Sonos player can be wired into the network to make that wired link and generate SonosNet, some configurations don't make for optimal workings. When you make a stereo pair, the left side is the main speaker, and handles traffic, if you were to wire in the right hand side, devices would still start at the left side. It just adds an extra hop, and therefore latency. The same is the case with a home theater setup. The PLAYBAR or PLAYBASE handles all traffic. So what you have here is everything goes wirelessly to your PLAYBAR, then they get directed to your wired PLAY:1.

    It's not that it can't work, but when you have trouble where latency could be to blame, cleaning it up is the best, first step.

    As I mentioned in your other thread, I think it'd be best to give us a call on our support line, so we can work with you live. That way we can get this all sorted out.
