Can I take an optical audio signal from a new tv and input into sonos zp80

I would like to buy a third party subwoofer to add wirelessly to my Sonos one amp which powers two wired ceiling speakers. Does anyone know if this is possible and if so which subwoofers will work? I.e. can I buy any subwoofer that has WiFi connection?

Good day Hi guys,I have a “problem”Have Beoplay A9 (5th GEN) and Sonos Port connected to it via ( RCA to USB-C A9 G5 does only have USB-C (dongle included))However I can not get the get the volume “up and down” to work correctly.I can pick line in on A9, but I can not control volume through Sonos app The volume is stuck at predefined level and I need to open up the B&O app to change the Volume!Is there a workaround? With hope of helpBWMr.B

I have read that the Brennan B3 cd player is the “only” CD player that connects seamlessly to the Sonos era 300.  Can you verify?  I just bought the ERA 300 and connects to my iphone perfectly. But i would like to play my CDs wirelessly and “cast” to my new speaker.  What CD players will work without all the hassles and complications i have been reading about on your forums.. yikes, spent $500 euros. Help!

I have my amp setup as surround speakers with my arc. For music playback I would like to switch to the amp speakers only (I.e. have a third option such as „front surround only“ besides „ambient“ and „full“)I know that this is not possible yet. But as the feature has been requested so many times since multiple years: is there any timeline from Sonos on this? I don’t think this should be to hard to implement… Thanks! 

I’ve managed to aquire 3 old ZP100s which are still in working order. I have added them to my system but they aren’t showing in the upgrade pages.Are they part of the upgrade program or is there any way to check if they have already been used for this.

i am wondering if i can add a sonos sub gen3 to a setup with a sonos sub mini before i buy it.

Hi all. This may not make any sense but recently while playing CDs on a cheap DVD/CD player the sound cuts off periodically but ONLY when running through the line in of the port and ONLY when the port is set to Pass through from my pre amp. If I set the port to variable the music does not cut out. It should also be noted that on my metered pre amp the VU meters seem to always have a signal in that there is always movement. The CD player is connected to the pre amp via RCA cables and not into my pre amps DAC via coaxial cable as I am not sure my pre amp DAC works. Any ideas?

Is it safe and recommended to stack Sonos Amps?

Ok, I have to plead optical audio ignorance here, but how does the Optical Audio Adaptor (came with the ARC sound bar) work?  How does the adaptor convert the optical audio out signal from the TV to an HDMI signal?  There is no electronics to convert from optical audio to HDMI built into this thing that I can see!The reason I asked is because I assumed that I could simply plug the optical audio adaptor into to my LG TV’s optical audio out plug (as it should be), set the tv to optical output and the connect adaptor via HDMI cable to one of the HDMI plugs on a Pioneer receiver and I’d get audio.  Apparently it doesn’t work that way!  What am I missing?  Any input would be appreciated and thanks in advance.  

I’ve read through all the threads thus far, but most are >1 yr old. Question is whether you can connect the Philips Hue HDMI sync box to Sonos Connect Amp to utilize sonos native app functionality to control music(via Spotify) and have it sync to lights?

Hi All, currently have a new play 5 and sub in my kitchen. I’m thinking of installing a Sonos amp with 2 B&W in ceiling speakers CCM362 to replace. my worry’s is will it be an upgrade or downgrade? kitchen is 4.5m by 7m.any advise would be grateful. 

Bonjour .Quel enceinte coupler à mon sonos amp pour  une install stéréo ?les era 100 ou le era 300 ?merci d’avance 

Looking to label my Amps as I will have a centralized stack. Can I put magnet stickers on them or will that impact something internal? Sorry for ignorance.

My B&W AM1 speakers have started to ‘crackle’, is it likely the Sonos Amp has overpowered them and blown the drivers? Thanks

Hi all,I currently have 2x sonos 5s, 2x sonos ones and a sub in my living room. I can only use them to play music at the moment because they are connected to a soundbar or amp. Is it possible to get a Beam gen2 and then connect all the speakers to the tv? So basically the Beam would need to act as a center speaker. I have a fairly large living area (10m x 5m with 4m+ ceilings) so only a beam (or even arc) with 2 rears wouldn’t do the trick. 

I have an old Quad 33/303 set up that I love and works very nicely with my turntable and Sonos Port as sources. It has a line-level output that I connect to the Port’s Line In so that I can listen to the Turntable in other zones. However, I have to turn the volume up on the other zones WAY higher than from other sources. The 33/303 Line Level output is adjustable, and I’ve set it to it’s max (“H” in the table below). The Port’s input settings are set to 1 (low) and it’s still too quiet. Not distorted, but just too low.What are the actual line-in sensitivity levels of the Port? I can in theory change the component values in the 33/303 to output more than 100mV, but I’d like to know what the Port’s inputs are in order to choose correct values. 

Hey, I know there were a couple of posts saying that this had now been fixed in a firmware upgrade.  My system is fully up to date But I cannot get my Sony Bluetooth turntable to connect to my era 300s. Am I missing something?  Do I have to do something manually to upgrade? All I get told is that my system is up to date.  

existe-t-il un microphone pour un chanteur  que je pourrais installer sur système Sonos  merci

I have dropped my Sonos ERA 300 to the floor and the back cover has fractured, I want to know two things, are there any tool or program that I can try to know if this hit cause problems of the sound? and do you know sopport service in latin america?

I have Sonos everywhere in the house and one room has an old Bose lifestyle surround sound system with 5 speakers and sub. I have a Sonos port and if I turn the Bose on, change to the right input, I can play Sonos.  but it’s the only room in the house that doesn’t just turn on. I have to go into the room and turn on the Bose system first with the remote, wait for it to boot up, then switch the input.  it’s a hassle. Anyone know of a better way if I keep the Bose?

I have a Sonos system, Era300 and Era100 speakers, and I have a Sony LX310BT vinyl turntable.Everything was working perfectly for a few days: the vinyl player and the Sonos Era300 speaker are perfectly connected via Bluetooth with a steady blue light.However, for the past few days, no sound is coming out of the speaker when I try to connect it to either the Era300 or Era100.I tested my turntable on a Bluetooth Marshall speaker, and it works.I connected my phone via Bluetooth to the speakers using Apple Music, and there is sound.I've tried to troubleshoot the issue from every angle, but I can't find a solution. I don't know why, overnight, no sound is coming out.I have done the lastest update. Problem remains…Has there been a Sonos firmware update? thx!
