Hello everyone!!!I recently got gifted a Sonos One gen 2 with incorporated Alexa, and I also got gifted a Vankyo projector 430 Leisure (I love Chrismas), I thought that it would make sense for me to get an Amazon firestick to stream content, since the Sonos had Alexa incorporated but for some reason I can’t get the projectors audio to come out through the Sonos. I am not tech savvy at all so please give me the “for dummies” version I thank you in advance for your answers 

Hi,I’m writing this for my father who have problems with his Sonos system. The problem have been present for a while, and we've tried several things. We have also contacted Sonos support and tried what they suggested - but the problem is still there.The system right nowBedroomA stereo pair of Play:1. Wirelessly connected.Living RoomSonos Beam (connected with ethernet to the router)Sonos Sub (wirelessly connected)Surround speakers - two Play:1 (also wireless).The issueThe problem is usually that speakers disappear from the app. As of right now, the speakers that disappear are the stereo pair in the bedroom. A restart of the speakers in the bedroom (unplugging them) makes them appear in the app again. The bedroom speakers did never disappear when he used a wireless setup.Other versions of the problemWireless setupWhen the system was using a Wireless setup (with the routers WiFi) the surround speakers usually was the ones that disappeared from the app. The bedroom speakers, the Beam or th

Hello wise people.We have an S1 system in the house which has a Bridge, Play:3 and Connect connected to the home wifi. I have the S1 controller app on my phone.I bought a Sonos One for my new home office but the S1 app can’t find it, even when I’m holding my phone next to it.So I downloaded S2 intending to set up a completely new system just for my home office (obviously on the same wifi). It keeps redirecting me to use the S1 controller or ‘set up a new system’ but then doesn’t give me this option.Could it be that my iPhone 6plus is too old to support the S2 controller? Or is there something else I’m missing?Thanks for any help.Emma

Dear Sonos team, I have a 2x play 1 , 1x play 5 and these are connected via a bridge. Since a couple of weeks,  the Sonos app losses the connection to my Spotify account but I can always play Spotify via Spotify direct connection but in the app itself it seems like Sonos has lost the complete connection to my account incl. All tune  in radio stations and everything connected to the account. Sometimes it just takes a while and then it works .. Also, often Spotify tracks are jumped over when I have opened the album in the Sonos app.. I have done all the tips , from changing the channel, over restarting router but it came out the same. I even reconnected the account to the Sonos system .. Can you please help me ?  Best regards, Simon 

I am trying to connect my Move to my existing Sonos system, It will find the MOVE but when I go to the next step it says unable to connect. The move sometimes has a blinking red light sometimes white, sometimes green..I am ready to return this…

On certian apps like YouTube and the wwe network the rear speakers (play ones) stopped working..but all other apps work great like Amazon,Netflix and regular cable..any ideas?

I just bought a new android TV from sharp. I set up my playbar following the instructions in the app, including setting up the TV remote to control volume over the playbar. The remote works fine to *lower* the volume, but whenever I turn the volume *up* it switches the TV speakers back on and turns both the TV and the playbar volume up. I already have "external speakers" checked in the android TV settings and supposedly the TV speakers are off. Any help?

I have purchased over 11 speakers so I’m a bit concerned that I can’t find a quick answer.   My Play 5 starting making a static news while on or off?   I disconnected...Moved to a different room...reconnected and it’s the same issue.   While off the static news is low...while playing the static news is more pronounced.   Can this be repaired?  

Does anyone know of a repair shop anywhere in the United States of America that will repair a Sonos amp? I think its pretty crappy that Sonos will refurb and trade out hardware under warranty, but after 12 measly months you are simply done. If I would have known that I probably wouldn’t have invested a small fortune in my system. But here we are...  Thanks community. And no thanks to you, Sonos. 

Hi,I have a problem with my recently purchased Sonos Amp. I have two external speakers (not Sonos) connected to my Amp through cable, and streaming music from my phone as well as the TV sound works absolutely fine. However, when I change to line in, in this case a turntable, the sound only comes out of one of the speakers. I have tried with a different RCA-cable, but that didn’t make any difference. Also, when I go into Sonos settings and change the sound to only right, there is no sound at all - almost as if I didn’t have the right speaker connected. There is, of course always a risk that something is broken, but I was wondering if anyone else share the same experience, and have a potential fix for it? Since the sound works fine with streaming/TV, I suspect it might be something with the turntable, but it could, of course, also be the connectors on the AMP that is broken…Any help is appreciated!//Fredrick

Hello,My Sonos play 1 won’t reset after moving house and changing router. I’ve attempted the reset many times but the light just stays solid white so I can’t connect. Please help. thanks

I am thinking of changing my broadband supplier, but the new router will be at the far end of the house rather than in the middle where the current one is.I know I am going to have to get some wi fi extenders to cover the whole house, but has anyone ever connected a Sonos bridge via an ethernet cable to an extender, as I don’t think the bridge is powerful enough to reach the far side of the house if I plug it into the main router.All our devices are 1st generation products and won’t work (apparently) without a bridge

My Connect device is connected with a wire to a router. I have a home network also connected wiredly to the same router. However when I am far from the Sonos device and not connected to the same router wireless, I can't control the device. Looks like I am not getting the connection to the device via the TP Link extender, whereas I am receiving the internet signal. looks like the Sonos device is not accepting the wired connection and always prioritizing it's wireless network... has anyone encountered a similar issue ?

I don’t know if this is relevant, but I recently upgraded from an iPhone 8 and to an iPhone 12 and have yet to use my Sonos via my new phone because of the problem outlined below. I never had this problem with my old phone.I have Spotify Premium. Both iOS and MacOS Spotify apps recognize my Sonos Play:1 but will not play through the Play:1 speakers. When I try to connect to the device from the Spotify apps, I get an endless “connection” animation but nothing happens. In MacOS, if I hover over the connection animation I see the message “Spotify is not active on this device”, meaning the Sonos speaker. In the Sonos 2 app (originally encountered this issue in the Sonos 1 app before thinking an upgrade to Sonos 2 would resolve the issue) I can see all of my Spotify songs, etc. I can log in to Spotify just fine. However, when I tap a song to play I get the following error message: “Unable to play [song name]  - the connection to Spotify was lost.” It then skips to the next song and the same

I reset, it picks up products says they are connected but don’t show on system

Hi. Every time ‘without fail’ I go onto the sonos app I get on ‘unable to connect to sonos app’ message. Sometimes if I wait about 10mins it connects but then has dropped out half of my system. Then sometimes it will not connect to anything. Then sometimes it takes about 30seconds then I’m in. This has only recently started happening and used to work absolutely fine, even with the S2 app. There is nothing wrong with the lower connection to the sonos products, nothing wrong with the internet connection and even if I toggle off/on my phones wifi it doesn’t tend to work. Anybody else getting this issue. It’s so frustrating and am running out of ideas. I’ve even changed the wifi router channel to be on the suggested 1 or 6 (2ghz). Still nothing.  Thanks Ross

Because the Sonos Move has to be set up in a wireless setup does this mean that it is susceptible to drop outs if the wifi connection is not strong? One of the reasons I like the Wired Option is that it resolved drop outs. However I find that the Sonos Move does drop out the further it is away from the router (which is quite often the case as the idea behind the Move is that it can be "moved" outside!).

I have 2 Sonos One SL speakers that were on a system at my office and now I have moved them to my house. I have tried the factory reset directions 5 times on this link below on each speaker…https://support.sonos.com/s/article/1096?language=en_US The light just slowly flashes white - never amber - then goes to solid white, then a few fast orange / red flashes then white again.
