Components and Architectural

I am trying to add a boost to my network. All my stuff is S1 and it says boost is incompatible but I have read that it can be added with S1 app. How to go about this?

Sonos used to work well, I started using it many years ago but the new app is very slow and I have to call support to get the system up and running. Now I turned off the 2.4GHz network and tried to run sonos on 5GHz. Does not work so system is not working (again) since a week. The ‘wizards’ in the slow S2 app does not help and system can’t be found. I even tried downloading the old S1 app to get that running with the system, but it does not find any of the speakers. I use Android (tried with 2 different phones) and Play 1, Play 3 as well as connect amp.

I have two pairs of in-wall Sonance Architectural Speakers wired to an Amp. I have had no difficulty in the past detecting them. There are no other Speakers wired to the Amp. The detect function no longer works. Is it possible th as that I have mixed up the polarity of the cables?

My Patio setup with Amp and Polk speakers won’t connect with any other rooms.  I can play music through the Patio, however, it won’t sync with other rooms even with the Patio next to the living room.  All other rooms can connect with each other without issue. I’ve reset the router, disconnected the power to the Amp, shut down the App.  Nothing seems to work so far. I submitted a diagnostics: **********Moderator edit: recorded and removed diagnostics number

I installed 3 new sonos amp for my customer upgrading from their existing S2 sonos connect amp setup as they wanted to use airplay 2 features.after setting up the 3 x new sonos amps I tried to use one of the old sonos connect amp for an additional zone powering 2 x speakers. i factory reset the old connect amp and It initially allowed me to add to the new system but then kept saying that the connect amp needed to be added and would not complete the process and error message unplug power for device reconnect and try again. After several attempts i decided to remove and test back in my office. I factory reset the Sonos connect amp and have added it to a new system with 1 x sonos move. It seems to have added to the system fine and i can play spotify to each of the devices but if i try grouping them together it will not complete the task and error message unable to connect please try again later. Any help or guidance on this matter would be appreciated. 

I am setting up a multi-room set-up in the Master Bath of our new house.  I am going to have one in-ceiling speaker in the wet room.  This speaker needs to be weather resistant and have stereo inputs. The best speaker I have found for this application is the Monitor Audio AWC265-T2.  It is an 8 Ohm speaker with two tweeters to provide both left and right sound. The wet room is about 6 feet by 9 feet with a sloped ceiling and a lot of glass (two big windows and a wall of glass).  The other part of the set-up is the part of the bathroom with the sinks and is 6 feet by 11 feet.  I want to use 2 Sonance in-wall speakers in that room.  They would be set 8 feet off the ground, 2 feet from the ceiling on the short wall which is only 6 feet wide.  A couple of questions.  Are the tweeters pivoting in the Sonance in-wall speakers?  Can I use remote volume switches between the amp, that will be the source for all 4 speakers (Amp will see the Monitor Audio speaker as 2) and the speakers so that I

Help needed…Hello Team, So I am currently renovating our house. I have been a Sonos customer for a long time, through the good times and the bad. Now one option I am considering is sticking with Sonos and adding an Amp with six architectural in ceiling speakers for casual listening and parties (I love music all the time everywhere but am not an audiophile). The ceiling is vaulted and so the four speakers along the wall will be angled by the pitch towards the stairs/kitchen space. The two end speakers will be angled inwards also on opposing angles which all meets in the middle at about 4m height. Room is 11 x 4 metres roughly. Hard floors, hard ceilings, hard surfaces. Questions/Help asked:1. 6 or 8 inch? (will be a sub in the bench seat). The 6 inches can be tilted and the 8 cannot but As I’m using for music firing it straight down isn’t necessary I assume and there will be no fixed listening position due to the multi purpose nature of the space. 2. 4 or 6 speakers?3. Room Placement- d

Hey,I already bought this turntable a couple of years ago, but i’m trying to plug it in the Sonos Ampin the Analog Audio In with the RCA Audio Cable from the turntableAfterwards I follow the instructions from the manual to start playbackThe Sonos App shows there is a Line In connection but it doesn’t play on my speakers.It shows a sort of signal from playing and I heard that my Turntable plays a number.Also switched the button on the turntable to switch from phono to line and reverse.I’ve already tried so many things but I can’t get it to work.Can somebody help me?Best regards,Mark

I have a pair of connects. One died one day. Won't get out of the orange/white blink after a reset so figured it was time to replace them anyways. I purchased one WiiM to replace the broken Connect. After I got it set up I went to open the Sonos app just to make sure that was connected and I had a forced app update. After it updated and asked me to create a network again for my connect. Unfortunately it has not been able to find the connect that has been working for several years. When I tried doing another reset I tried turning the phone off and on. I've tried everything except try and connect it directly to the router just to set it up again.Is that my only option at this point or do you just replace that box since it's not supported anyways 

Almost 2025 and still no comprehensive EQ for AMP. 😔I can understand limiting all-in-one Sonos speakers and soundbars etc. to bass/treble controls in EQ. These products have most likely been carefully voiced and I’d assume they don’t want to provide users a way to detrimentally alter the sound with aggressive eq’ing which could damage brand perception. Maybe that’s not the case and they just simply want to keep the app easy to use / configure.Either way, AMP users should be provided a more detailed EQ option, since the amp is paired with a myriad of 3rd party speakers, all with unique voicings. If the line-in wasn’t so poor, you could theoretically EQ somewhere else in the signal path, and then use the amp like a power amp, but that kind of defeats the entire purpose of being in the Sonos ecosystem. The Wiim amp at $299 offers a 10-band parametric EQ and a 10-band graphic EQ (and high-res streaming up to 24/192 - but that’s another discussion).I doubt this is a hardware issue, because

I have a second hand Sonos Connect which I would like to add to my Sonos One speakers to play CD/DVD from an old music system.When trying to add the Connect it tells me it is not compatible, I have tried the S1 app but it always wants me to upgrade to the S2 app. Is there a simple way to do this. i am 70 years old so a simple explanation of how to get this working would help.Many thanks in advance

I have a pair of powered bookshelp speakers (not connected to a reciever). Can I hook them up to a Port and stream using the Sonos app?

I’m a Sonos novice.Using a setup with three zones.  That part seems to be working fine.However, I’d like to add one non-standard setup through the HDMI AMP input (RCA already works for this setup, but 75ms latency is too long, so not an option).  I’ve seen the digital/HDMI input is supposed to be much lower latency.I want to be able to speak/sing into a microphone and have it amplified through that HDMI input.  Not loud, just maybe 70-75db range.  I connect a microphone to a Zoom U44.  Then I take its optical output, use the Sonos optical to HDMI converter (with an additional HDMI 2.1 cable) and go into the Sonos AMP.  Getting no sound, unfortunately.I believe the Zoom is outputting audio when trying this method because when I connect it’s digital output to an entirely different system it’s working fine.I know this idea may seem like more trouble than it’s worth, but would like to be able to test out and find out for myself if this can do what I’m hoping for.If you have additional idea

Hi,I’ve just bought some old 1st gen play 3 and play 5 speakers. The previous owner had cut the plugs off and had wired them up for use in France. The speakers now have no plugs at all. Can I simply wire a standard UK 13 amp plug to the Sonos cable and use that?Thanks

I just recently added Port to my Sonos system so I can connect my Denon receiver and Boston Acoustics speakers to my Sonos system. The “line out” function seems to work as expected - I connected line our from Port to aux audio input on my receiver and can now stream on my old system concurrently with my Sonos speakers.  I would also like to output from my receiver to the port and out to my Sonos speakers throughout my house. I have not been able to get this to work. I connected an audio out on my receiver to line in on Port and got no sound or very weak sound on delay. It seams like this should work. Based on product description, it seems like Port should be able to broadcast audio from my receiver to the entire Sonos network.   I called Sonos phone support and they said Port can’t do this. I don’t believe this is correct because under line in in the Sonos app “receiver” is an option. Does anyone have any help for me with this problem?  Thank you. 

Hi guys, I just bought a new Amp for my office. My phone can connect to Wifi normally, but when setting up Amp at the password entry step, the App says I entered the wrong password.I have consulted with the articles about Sonos system requirements and I have met all of them.https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/sonos-system-requirementsI have checked in the router, my phone uses data normally, Sonos can also connect but cannot receive IP. Can anyone tell me what this issue is and how to fix it?

I have two WiFi networks coming from one router. The first one “WiFi A” I give guests the password so they can use WiFi. But “WiFi B” remains private and only I have the password. How can I make connection to the port only possible if you are connected to “WiFi B”? 

Lots of closed threads with incomplete information about UPnP support.I see two options in the Sonos app for Media Servers: Show Media Servers (toggle)Show UPnP Servers (toggle) UPnP is a pretty long standing solution.  There is a lot of confusion about whether Sonos supports DLNA.  DLNA is a superset of UPnP and Sonos does NOT support DLNA.  So if you have a DLNA server, Sonos won’t see it, unless it is ALSO a UPnP server?  This seems backwards.  UPnP is the older standard.  DLNA is supposed to be UPnP plus additional useful stuff.  Apparently, this additional useful stuff may be preventing Sonos from seeing it?My confusion is further exacerbated by the other toggle, Media Servers, in the Sonons controller app.  Which media servers are those?  Is there a list?For that matter, are the any UPnP servers that Sonos does NOT support?Asset UPNP works fine.  But JRiver Media Center, which supports both UPnP and the larger DLNA protocol, is not recognized.Since I cannot find an documentation

Hello everyone, I moved into a new house which has ceiling speakers in most rooms.  I think 8 rooms in total.  I have used Sonos for 18 years so I want to continue to do so.  All of the speakers are cabled back to one server room.  DO I need to purchase an amp for each zone that I want to control?  Or is there a more economical way around this? Also what is the maximum distance from Amp to speaker allowed? Many thanks John 

I just upgraded my original connect system to a new port, however I can’t seem to connect it to my existing Sonos 1 speaker. The new system works on my hifi but cannot find the existing Sonos speaker. The speaker does show when using my laptop but the new port doesn't. Can anyone help?

I have old rectangular in ceiling speakers that connect to a sonos amp.  I want to replace the speakers and not have to do too much patch work.  Can I use the in wall rectangular speakers in the ceiling?

After a moving I’m installing my Sonos product in my new home. During the process to add my Sonos Connect to the Sonos system, I get the message “press the button whit the white blinking light”.I have pressed it many times, but the app answer me “we do not detect the pressure of the button” and the process halts. I have repeated it many times and I got always the same result: installation failure.  Any suggestion?

Hi everyone,I am a beginner in this field. We got this second hand system in my house. We have Sonos speakers installed in the walls and ceiling. We have an entertainment stand with Apple AirPort Extreme, a switch, a Sonos connect, a Denon AVR-X2600H and a subwoofer. There is another Sonos connect in the pantry room connected to other wall Sonos speaker. I don’t see green light on sono connects and cannot hear sound from speakers. Appreciate any help and assistance.   

I have a Sonos Amp and the Sonos App. When I try to use the IOS Home app to connect to the amp or direct AirPlay from the iPhone, it asks for the AirPlay password (see screenshot). I’m not sure where to set this and whether it’s functionally correct.  

Sonos had been doing well with a Connect:AMP unit, but then started to drop out. I unplugged the AMP and plugged it back in, and now it is off the network. The Android app I have is 80.09.04-release+20240917.6a71457I have a pair of left and right Play:1’s and they work fine. I have a Roam SL and it works fine. The Connect:AMP shows up in it, but every time a try to play something, I get “Something went wrong.”  So what went wrong? How can I find out?
