Can I just connect the "connect" via ethernet to establish new wifi and keep all my settings... i.e. I don't need to connect the Play 1...?

Hi I have got a BOSE Companion 5 that i am trying to add to my setup via a Connect. I am connecting the 2 via the Audio out on the connect into the auxillary input on the Bose (this is located on the sound module Puck) I thought this would be a simple exercise but i am finding that i am only getting the faintest sound out of the speakers with no Bass at all. My current setup includes a number of Play 1s throughout the house plus a B&W Zepellin attached to a second connect which also links to my Rega Turntable. any ideas as to how i can get this to work ?

My Sonos Story;I have a wife and two young boys and no sound system of any kind in the house other than the TVs (big TV).  All in the course of one week each boy wanted a stereo system in their rooms and the wife wanted speakers out by the pool and a sound system in the house, I wanted a surround sound system for that big TV.  I live in Florida with no basement and no attic so running and hiding wires is a mess.  I also live in an Apple house, if Apple makes it I have a least three of them and what ever I get for a sound system must work with Apple.  So I was at looking a three different systems and a whole bunch of wire and money. So I began asking all my friends what they have and only one of them had a Sonos system.  After doing some more research I purchased two Play 3 speakers and a Bridge.  Right off the bat I had problems with the system dropping out.  I contacted Sonos and they told me to move the Bridge as it was having troub

This question never came up in years of use but now it has (long story). Does it output in some uniform format, or does it output in whatever format the digital input was in, e.g. if mp3 then mp3, if flac then flac, etc.? I'm considering a headphone amp-+ DAC that may not accept flac. (Guess it wasn't such a long story.)

I would like to request that you guys add support for two more speakers in the "5.1" surround sound setup. As big as the PlayBase is, it's still effectively doing mono output. I would like to be able to spread the frontal stereo image wider with a couple of satellite Ones/Play:1s speakers becoming the left and right channels while the PlayBase becomes the center channel. Also, you should take this a step further and integrate 2 more satellites for a 7.1 system with two speakers on either side of the listener sweet spot. P.S. Please add DTS support.

Just wanted to say how impressed I am with sonos after sales support. It is second to none. I split the shroud on my play 5 power cord where it plugs into the back of the speaker. I chatted with the online tech support, simply to ask where I could get one in Australia. My address was asked, and a replacement. Cable was sent, no questions asked and completely free of charge. So impressed. Love my sonos system!!

does connect:amp supports B&W CM1 S2? Currently i'm using Rotel RC series system in my lounge but i want to convert all my music to digital format and get rid of multi unit system. Waiting for your response and support. Cheers Fareed

New to connect and trying to figure out how to connect all of this stuff. I have a functioning Sonos system wit 3 Play 1's and 1 Play 3. I just acquired a Definitive Sounbvar, Martin Logan wireless Sub and a connect. Trying to make them all work together. Any help would be much appreciated!!

Hi. Quick question: is it possible to use the Connect as a streamer only and bypass the DAC? Thanks

Just set up my new Connect-Amp and as I've got loads of CDs I am looking for a small, stand alone, CD player to connect to. Similar proportions to the Amp would be good. Thanks.

every time i try to connect to my play 5 it keeps giving me the same error saying "an unexpected error occured. try again." please

Hi, I am looking at a 2 year old sonos sub on eBay which is described as in new condition. Before I bid I want to know if there has been a change of model since the sub was launched because I want to purchase the most up to date model.

I have a Marantz NR 1604 Receiver. The TV is connected through the HDMI output, Direct TV box and DVD through HDMI inputs, and my phono preamp through the CD audio inputs. What should I use to connect my Sonos Connect to the receiver?

Hello all! I purchased a Sonos Playbase and Connect. I have hooked my Linn Sondek Turntable into a Little Bear T8 preamp through the MC ports then into my Sonos Connect live in port. I am getting a VERY low sound and quality. Can anyone please help me?

Hi, In the same physical room, I have two Sonos "rooms": a TV room with a playbar, a Sub and two play:1 acting as surround speakers, and a "music" room wtih two play:5. Now, I realized that the play:5s sound much better when used in conjunction with a Sub, so I'm trying to share the same Sub between my "music" room and my "TV" room. Unfortunately, the only way I found to achieve that is by removing the Sub from one room and adding it to the other, which is painful, slow and also forces me to redo all optimizations. Is there any way the same Sub can be shared between two rooms? Sonos, could you add this to the wishlist? :) Thanks, David

Add Sub to more than one group.  Sub is located between two rooms/groups.  

What functionality does this feature provide when enabled?

I have a Connect that I have been using for many years to allow me to use my Turntable. The turntable is connected, via a pre-amp, to the analog line-in of the Connect and this set up works brilliantly. Recently I purchased a sound bar for under my TV. So that I could include this as part of my Sonos network I hooked up the sound bar to the Connect to the analog line-out of the Connect. This worked fine for a couple of weeks but now the audio keeps dropping out. It is mostly random but the sound bar will get a signal for about 5 to 10 seconds then it will drop out for a while and then come back again for another few seconds. No amount of playing with the connections will get it to maintain a signal. I have checked the cable in multiple ways. First I switched it over to the analog line-in and connected my phone to the other end and was able to play music without problem around the network. Then I tried another cable and connected my phone to the sound bar and again was able to play m

I found a person in my area selling a used Sonos Sub. He says it was purchased a month ago and it looks new from the outside. However, he no longer has the receipt. Will I still be covered by warranty if I buy this from him? I have a playbar already and been looking for a cost effective way to get my hands on a Sonos Sub.

Hi. I have a recurring problem with my connect amp. The white light is always intermittent and does not connect to the sonos controller. I got a pair of Polk Audio speakers that I want to connect to the Amp to improve my Sonos sound. Please help! (confirmation number 1039371935)

Has any tried this rig setup? I assume that this would only count as 1 zone within the sonos ecosystem?

I want to set up my Play 5 in my condo that only has wifi for the building. I have no access to a wired connection. Would I use a wireless router to create my own wireless network? How do I do that without access to the wired internet connection?

I am holding fire on buying a Sonos Playbar because I am waiting for the Playbar to be supplied in white. When is this likely to happen in the UK? So far, I have purchased IN WHITE the unit that connects to the internet, a PLAY 1 and a PLAY 5. How come I cannot find a white Playbar? Awaiting your kind advice.

Hello, Brand new user here. Just bought a Connect and a One and so far I'm impressed with the overall experience of setup. The Sonos ONE sounds amazing on its own. However, I'm less impressed with the sound I'm getting from my Connect + Onkyo Receiver + B&W S3 speakers. It sounds very flat and very little bass when playing music through the Connect. Previously I was playing music w/ Pandora via Apple TV connected directly to the receiver and the sound was great. When playing through Sonos app + Connect, sound isn't nearly as "rich" I've connected the Connect via an optical cable going from the Connect to the Optical "IN" on the Onkyo. Is there something else I should be doing to ensure I'm getting the best sound I can from these speakers? Thanks!

can I hook 2 pair (4 speakers ) of Bose 31763 Free Space 51 Outdoor In-Ground Speakers to one SONOS connect Amp or do I need to buy two separate connect amps? The speaker wires would range from 50-100 foot long
