Components and Architectural

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!

If I have one single line in source (let’s call it a record player), and 5 Connect:Amps.I’d like the single line in signal to be used by all the Connect:Amps so can be heard in all rooms simultaneously. For what it’s worth, all the Connect:Amps are in the same location.I feel this is probably going to be either straightforward or not possible? Thank you!

I have recently upgraded my home network and ISP with EE. All my devices have connected to the new router except the Sonos 1.It will work if I connect it with a cable, but drops off when trying to use wifi connection.When I use the app on my Android it tells me it cannot find any devices.Grateful for any advice.Kevin Fields

I have an Bose Cinemate system connected to my tv. I want to connect a Port to this , not for tv sound but to add to my Sonos ecosystem when not watching tv. Will Port allow me to select these speakers and turn on through the app (much like adding or subtracting speakers now) to include with all other speakers and it I unselect, will the sound from tv play independently (not thru port)?  The Cinemate has an amp built in. It has RCA analog in/out as well as an optical in. There are two shelve speakers and subwoofer   

Hi everyone,  I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo (Nogal) turntable, and I currently have a Sonos Beam (Gen 2) sound system. I have a couple of questions regarding connectivity: From my understanding, I can't wirelessly connect the Pro-Ject Debut turntable directly to the Sonos Beam 2. Is that correct? I’m considering purchasing the Sonos Era 300 speaker to pair with the turntable. Would this be a good option? Is there any additional equipment needed to ensure the turntable works properly with it? If I add the Era 300 to my Sonos network, would the sound from the turntable play through the Beam 2 as well, or just the Era 300? Thanks in advance for your help!  

My Sonos Amp is happily pumping surround sound from my Arc. If I connect, say, a WiiM Ultra preamp by RCAs as an Roon end point, will that cause a problem with my surrounds? Or can the Amp detect and accept which input is active? I don’t want to struggle with needing to reconnect my surrounds, I just want this to work. Possible?

Bonsoir,j’avais Sonos Connect qui me permettait de diffuser le son de mes vidéos sur ma chaîne B&O. Superbe !je viens de passer à Sonos Amp, et j’ai maintenant deux secondes de retard pour mon son. Auriez-vous une idée ? philippe Moderator edit:Google Translate- Good evening,I had Sonos Connect which allowed me to broadcast the sound of my videos on my B&O channel. Superb!I just switched to Sonos Amp, and I now have two seconds of delay for my sound.Do you have any idea?philippe

I’m sorry, Patrick should be fired. I watched his new video and his comments are weak and frankly a bit to late. When they announced and forced us to use the new app, he was silent and then when he did speak up, he defended the app and pretty much told us to shut up and deal with it, that it was for the best. He does not care about the loyal customers. I have SONOS products all over our house and we take the portables everywhere. We have multiple outdoor speakers. We have multiple of each Move 2’s, Roam’s, Arc’s, Era 300’s, Era 100’s, One’s, Sub Mini’s (Just ready to upgrade to Sub gen 3’s then the new app was released so I held off...THANK GOD). The new app update was a disaster and once the thousands of complaints and obvious mistake on releasing the app, instead of bringing back the old app until the new one was fixed or re-created, they told us to chill out and deal with it. Then they told us they would be fixing everything..WRONG...Every update KIND OF fixed some things, but then

I have 2 trailers used for tailgating. Currently, we use a Yamaha receiver, B&W 601s, and Def Tech Super Cube sub in one trailer. We are using a Connect for music streaming. We want to extend to the other trailer with a play base and multiple Ones. WiFi is not a problem and neither is power. Will the Connect allow us to add the others and group everything? 

My amp just stopped working out of nowhere, I assumed it was just another “sonos” issue with updates and that maybe it would sort itself the next time i go to use it...it did not. I can not get my app to find the device and it had just disappeared from my list. I dove in for a better look and noticed that it is not showing any sign of life (no white,orange,green lights). I check the surge protector and all other devices and they all are working as they should be.  I unhooked it completely and moved to a different outlet and the still nothing.Called Sonos, dealing with rude customer service, and being given little to no helpful information. The service person “Michal” mumbles that what sounds like “you (I) must have done something, that I will need to buy another”. I explained this device sits on a shelf, I did not do anything to this, it has been working , and correctly hooked upped. Due to the fact the device is over 1 year old we (sonos) can not replace it or repair it, the only opti

Das ganze System mit 9 Komponente lief miserabel und nun habe ich den Boost abgeklemmt…. Und es läuft!  Moderator Note - Translation by Google:The whole system with 9 components was running poorly and now I have disconnected the boost... And it works!

Same question came up a few years ago in this support channel. Updating seemed to have resolved the issue for him but it dosnt seem to be for me. Anyone experiencing the same issue or have a solution for this?  GOAL: Pioneer DDJ-SX > Connect > Playbar

helloI have a question, I have two Sonos one gen 2 speakers, a TV with 3 HDMI inputs and an Xbox Series S, Apple TV and a TV decoder.I would like to connect them together and my question is if I buy a Beam gen 1 or gen 2 soundbar and an HDMI extender for the TV, will it be ok, or are there any dedicated amplifiers that connect to my Sonos one speakers wirelessly and also have 4-5 HDMI inputs on the back to connect preferred devices (Xbox, Apple TV, etc.)thanks

System setup:Sonos Beam in Family room, connected to TV Sonos Amp in Living Room, connected to pair of Bose 701 speakersGot a new Amp for Father’s Day, and I set it up and, after the required update, went to play some of my Apple Music playlists through the app…and t every song immediately stops playing. I can play songs using Airplay directly onto the Amp, but not through the app.However, Apple Music still works through the Beam. And both Amazon Music and Sonos Radio work on the Amp; it’s just Apple Music that won’t work.

Over the years, I've spent a lot on Sonos and let's leave it at that. I was a die-hard fan buying it for relatives and encouraging friends too. However, they made quite a few of my items legacy, 4 x Play 5s and a Connect that I used for proper hifi via optical out into Marantz DAC, Amp, Floorstanders, massive Monolith Plus sub. The cables on that system cost more than a Play 5. To be fair, I always thought that it sounded great via Spotify and the Sonos Connect, but I swapped to Tidal Hi-Res Studio files via the Bluesound Node, and the difference is massive. No more background noise at 5+ vol,  the soundstage is much more comprehensive, bass control on another level, and vocals/instruments are just popping. The difference is enormous considering the amount spent.  I'm gradually swapping Sonos for real HiFi because they will legacy more products, for example, after a few years when the S3 app comes out. I understand the business model, but it's not for me.The Tidal audio files also soun

I have a vintage stereo (KLH Model Twenty Four) the speaker connections are RCA style. If I was to purchase a Connect would it be the speaker outputs that connect to the audio in on the connect and then could I connect my wired speakers to the Connect audio out?  Thanks! 

Maybe a daft question but my new (black) Port only seems to let me use my wi-fi to connect, not the Sonos Channels my old white Port allowed.My Port is right next to a wi-fi booster, wired to a turntable, and two Play 1s (hardly the Sonos way) but the sound is still glitchy. I'm running out of ideas and patience setting this up over and over.

Is it possible to connect sub to port? I can not manage to connect them.

I have had Sonos for many years and have added  in quite a few wireless products. I would like to make it more of a home theater system, where I can plug in an iPhone and play from a playlist or even insert a thumb drive with a playlist on it to play, custom music selections. How do I do this? Will the amp satisfy these requirements?
