Components and Architectural

Hoping someone can help, I'm having issues watching isp catch up TV and Netflix on my smart tv's, am thinking it might be my gen1 sonos units. I have gigabit Internet up and down from my isp, modem in bridge mode, connected to a separate araknis router. Cisco switch connected to one lan port meshed WiFi on another. From the Cisco switch I have a smaller netgear switch to which one of the smart tvs is connected as well as one of the sonos components, all other sonos 4 sonos components connect on sonos.net. The modem has 4 connections one into my araknis router, 3 of the smart tv's connect direct into the other 3 ports. Running a Control4 smart home which is why I have the current setup Any tips or advice would be most welcome tia

I connected my Port to a Pioneer receiver that is set to - 40db as a start up volume. This because I don't want to shake the hole house when I start the TV for the morning. If I turn the volume up and later switch from Port to TV it will be very Loud if I don't lower the volume first. The problem is that if I set line out to variable it is too low volume to match the other Sonos speakers. Sonos volume set to 18 means that I have to set port at 100. Then I can't rise the volume more.If I set to fixed, it is too loud at - 40db and I also want to adjust the volume from the app so variable would be the best option. It would be nice to be able to adjust the baseline input level for the variable and then save the setting. In that case I can adjust the volume to match the Sonos speakers and then the volume will be equal for both speakers and Port. 

Hello I can’t Connect my routeur Wiim pro plus to my Beam sonos. Any help please?

Hello all,I am considering adding a vinyl Platine to use it with the Sonos speakers that I have: 2 One SLs, 1 Beam and 1 Sub Mini. Could somebody tell me what additional equipment (Sonos Amp?)  I’d need to do so and what Platine works fine with the Sonos system ?Thanks,Andres

There were rumors on the release of Sonos Premiere, the multi-zone Sonos amplifier to be released in H2 2024. Does any one have information on this?  Sonos Port is also ageing and an update with possible Atmos, Hi-fi support would be appealing.

I have an old beamer which does not support wi-fi nor BT, it only has an HDMI output where I have a chrome cast plugged in.any chance to include my Sonos (Ikea) stereo setup?thanks

I have 5 amps, two Sonos beams, multiple arcs and probably $10k invested across two homes.  The system literally never works.  I’ve had the systems professionally installed and I’m pretty tech savvy.  I’m literally right now looking at the app again showing that it’s playing on five systems and I have sound out of one.  This is a new problem, it all worked fine yesterday.  It’s not a Wi-Fi problem, all the speakers are showing live on the system.  But the bigger issue is it’s like this ALL the time.  The system is unstable, not well supported and super fragile.  If you’re thinking of buying Sonos, don’t.  It’s not even the money, it’s the constant frustration.

So I bought 2 sub minis and I just read that you can’t connect 2 sub minis is that true and is there any way I can ?

Is it possible to stream music videos through the Port when using Airplay.Currently using iTunes to through my phone  to a Port and playing music through my hifii. I also have a Samsung frame TV and wondered on how I could stream the music videos to that whilst still playing through the hifi. I’m guessing it isn’t possible using the Port? 

Hello to allCan we connect a Sub (Gen3) to a play:5 (Gen2)? Thanks

I installed a system in an airport hangar with 2 sonos ports. I have had 2 power losses and after the ports boot back up anyone without a sonos account has not been able to access the system via wifi until someone with an account connects to it. Is this standard? 

I’m moving from my current house which has a number of ceiling speakers connected to Sonos Connect Amps, which I intend to leave for the new owner. How do I leave these products and how does the new owner connect to them?

I need advice for configuration of my existing stereo system (Pinell 701) and Sonos Beam and Sub. The stereo has a built in amp and an RCA line out. Can I connect it, via Sonos Port’s line in, to the Sonos Beam and Sub to stream stereo?

Hi there,I have a Sonos Port and am having some major issues which are rendering it very frustrating - anyone else seeing the same / have any advice? Details below, cheers! Device:Sonos Port, with a turntable on the input and a pair of active speakers on the output Issue:Port will drop from WiFi every 4-5 hours or so and requires switching on and off to get it to show up again - it either disappears from the app completely, or will also occassionally just be identified as offline When it does then connect, any other speaker which is not currently playing something disappears from the app (they gradually appear again over the next 15-20 minutes) What I’ve Investigated:Wi-fi Strenth - this is good (43 dBm), and the issue still recurrs if the Port is right next to the access point DHCP - I’ve given the Port a static IP on my OPNSense router (doesn’t fix the issue)

Hi there,I have exactly the same feature request(s) as here:I have a projector setup with a retractable screen in front of a window, so a Sonos soundbar was never going to work for me. However I like the Sonos ecosystem and wanted a speaker setup for 3 primary use cases:good quality speakers for music could also be used for a home theatre setup could be used for a voice assistant I had the idea to use 2x Era 100s as a stereo pair for my main speakers. But to get my different AV sources passing audio to them via the projector, I thought using an Amp with the ARC was the way to go. Finally I added a sub mini into the mix for good measure.Before I committed to the purchase I phoned Sonos technical support to see if this setup would work: “sure” they said, “j

Is there a difference in sound quality between port and amp when using a turntable and only Sonos speakers?  

I have a Sonos Port with current software (uploaded on another Sonos network)I tried to create a new Sonos network with this port on a different wifi network using my Android mobile phone with the latest App.The Add device process kept failing at the last step to register the port on Sonos network. I could see the device on my phone in the Sonos app; it prompted me to Fix it but it kept failing telling me to try again later.I then looked at one of the discussions and it suggested using the Sonos Windows App, which I have on my PC to manage the update. This worked. The registration step completed, and the new Sonos system is working fine, both on the Sonos app on my Windows PC and on my Android mobile phone.As the discussion suggested, the problem seems to be the mobile phone app. 

Hi I have moved into  a new house, which has speakers in all the rooms all wired up and ready to go.  If i buy a Sonos Bridge, will this enable me to stream my music from apple?  i realise it would be the sqame music in every room.  Do i need to buy anything else to get up and running? Thank you.

Hi,My question was asked per guidance from Sonos on stackoverflow. The question is specifically about the SMAPI, and if the Endpoint URL *must* be public. If so, Why? It doesn’t make sense and is a poor design choice for integrations.The question is asked here in more detail - please can somebody answer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79162083/sonos-smapi-endpoint-can-this-be-decided-at-runtime

What is the voltage coming out the subwoofer out on the Sonos amp?

i’ve just bought a new home and there are some existing outside speakers, can they be used with my sonos speakersnby adding thensonos amp?

I currently have a non-sonos receiver running surround in my living room.  Am I able to connect any of the sonos subwoofers to this system and have it work with both TV and music?  I feel like I tried to do this initially and it didn't work.

Hi! Is there any way to adjust the input gain for HDMI on the Sonos Amp?I have the problem that the input from the TV is relatively lower than when streaming music. For music I set the volume to maybe 25-30 at normal listening level, but for TV I need to crank it up to almost 50.If I first  watch TV and then switch to Spotify or any other music streaming service, I will get a heart attack if I forget to first adjust the volume down. 😅to sort this out I would either need the possibility to set hdmi input gain or set a default volume for hdmi and streaming respectively, that is applied/reset every time I switch input source.

Subject: Inquiry About "Line-In" FeatureHello,As a dealer, installer, and user, I have a simple question: When will the option to select and control "Line-In" return? In the "gold" app, it was available at the bottom of the "Browse" screen, but now it's missing. It might seem like it should be under the "Your System" section, but it’s unclear. I've seen many complaints about the removal of features in the new app, and losing the ability to control Line-In is not just disappointing—it's a liability for users who specifically chose these products for this feature. I'm referencing Keith N's response from two days ago regarding the bullet list of five features that supposedly have return dates.

Hi - I am trying to setup a new PORT to my Denon stereo system that consists of a receiver, CD player, and Tape player - I want to connect so anything I play on the CD/Tape players will play on my Sonos speakers throughout my house. I looked thru the questions here, but honestly I can't figure it out - any help would be appreciate. Thanks!
