I have 7 different SONOS components and want to know the mfg. date.

I see the most recent registration date - but that is not helpful.

Thanks

    Look at the data plate, the first digits in the serial number are the date.

      Yep.  YYMM is the format.

        Thanks - I found that answer on another post from a google search.

        The first Connect Amp shows 1305  00  then the Serial #.

        The next component shows 1109 00 then serial #. That could be Nov 2009.

        Not working on the first one though… 1305. I also know this product did not exist yet in 2005.

        Am I not reading this correctly?

        Got it…   year/month makes sense.

        Thanks to you and Stanley :thumbsup:

        In my system lookup it says Gen 2

        Could 1909 be year/month?

          I think thats right. Maybe the D102 is a reference for Gen2.

          Not sure we’ll ever get a Sonos rep to respond, but I have to wonder if the D102 is a test device that wasn’t ever supposed to get into the sales channel, hence the odd serial number.

            I have a vague recollection that the D number did indeed indicate a device designed for beta testing that testers were not supposed to sell. I am a bit hazy over the exact details though.
