If I have one single line in source (let’s call it a record player), and 5 Connect:Amps.I’d like the single line in signal to be used by all the Connect:Amps so can be heard in all rooms simultaneously. For what it’s worth, all the Connect:Amps are in the same location.I feel this is probably going to be either straightforward or not possible? Thank you!

I have recently upgraded my home network and ISP with EE. All my devices have connected to the new router except the Sonos 1.It will work if I connect it with a cable, but drops off when trying to use wifi connection.When I use the app on my Android it tells me it cannot find any devices.Grateful for any advice.Kevin Fields

I have an Bose Cinemate system connected to my tv. I want to connect a Port to this , not for tv sound but to add to my Sonos ecosystem when not watching tv. Will Port allow me to select these speakers and turn on through the app (much like adding or subtracting speakers now) to include with all other speakers and it I unselect, will the sound from tv play independently (not thru port)?  The Cinemate has an amp built in. It has RCA analog in/out as well as an optical in. There are two shelve speakers and subwoofer   

Hi everyone,  I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo (Nogal) turntable, and I currently have a Sonos Beam (Gen 2) sound system. I have a couple of questions regarding connectivity: From my understanding, I can't wirelessly connect the Pro-Ject Debut turntable directly to the Sonos Beam 2. Is that correct? I’m considering purchasing the Sonos Era 300 speaker to pair with the turntable. Would this be a good option? Is there any additional equipment needed to ensure the turntable works properly with it? If I add the Era 300 to my Sonos network, would the sound from the turntable play through the Beam 2 as well, or just the Era 300? Thanks in advance for your help!  

My Sonos Amp is happily pumping surround sound from my Arc. If I connect, say, a WiiM Ultra preamp by RCAs as an Roon end point, will that cause a problem with my surrounds? Or can the Amp detect and accept which input is active? I don’t want to struggle with needing to reconnect my surrounds, I just want this to work. Possible?

I have 2 trailers used for tailgating. Currently, we use a Yamaha receiver, B&W 601s, and Def Tech Super Cube sub in one trailer. We are using a Connect for music streaming. We want to extend to the other trailer with a play base and multiple Ones. WiFi is not a problem and neither is power. Will the Connect allow us to add the others and group everything? 

helloI have a question, I have two Sonos one gen 2 speakers, a TV with 3 HDMI inputs and an Xbox Series S, Apple TV and a TV decoder.I would like to connect them together and my question is if I buy a Beam gen 1 or gen 2 soundbar and an HDMI extender for the TV, will it be ok, or are there any dedicated amplifiers that connect to my Sonos one speakers wirelessly and also have 4-5 HDMI inputs on the back to connect preferred devices (Xbox, Apple TV, etc.)thanks

System setup:Sonos Beam in Family room, connected to TV Sonos Amp in Living Room, connected to pair of Bose 701 speakersGot a new Amp for Father’s Day, and I set it up and, after the required update, went to play some of my Apple Music playlists through the app…and t every song immediately stops playing. I can play songs using Airplay directly onto the Amp, but not through the app.However, Apple Music still works through the Beam. And both Amazon Music and Sonos Radio work on the Amp; it’s just Apple Music that won’t work.

I have a vintage stereo (KLH Model Twenty Four) the speaker connections are RCA style. If I was to purchase a Connect would it be the speaker outputs that connect to the audio in on the connect and then could I connect my wired speakers to the Connect audio out?  Thanks! 

Maybe a daft question but my new (black) Port only seems to let me use my wi-fi to connect, not the Sonos Channels my old white Port allowed.My Port is right next to a wi-fi booster, wired to a turntable, and two Play 1s (hardly the Sonos way) but the sound is still glitchy. I'm running out of ideas and patience setting this up over and over.

Is it possible to connect sub to port? I can not manage to connect them.

I have had Sonos for many years and have added  in quite a few wireless products. I would like to make it more of a home theater system, where I can plug in an iPhone and play from a playlist or even insert a thumb drive with a playlist on it to play, custom music selections. How do I do this? Will the amp satisfy these requirements? 

I added a new amp to my existing five amp system. All 5 A play and operate. New amp shows it’s added correctly and appears on my app however, when I attempt to play music, the selected song does not play in instead. Sonos app begins scrolling through my playlist. If I select another song, same thing happens.

My basement bar has a TV, four wired speakers, Sonos Connect, two Play Ones and chromecast.I ran everything through an AV receiver and an old DVDO video processor (which just died) - the setup allowed me to listen to either the TV on all 6 speakers or music on all 6. Now that that video processor is kaput, does anyone know a simpler solution? 

I have been using my turntable with my Sonos Amp for years. I want to add a cassette deck. Obviously only one will be playing at a time. Would a simply RCA Y-splitter work so I don’t have to manually unplug and plug into the Amp input? Thanks!Adam      

I just bought a new TV and sonos arc. I also have a speaker system wired through the house that is powered by two stand alone amps and a reciever that is routing the source for that sound. I am considering a sonos port but want to know how i would connect the amps to the port and if the port will replace the receiver which is very old. 

Good afternoon!I’m in the process of renovating my basement.  I’ve included a schematic layout and I need the best way to power and control the speakers I’ve installed.  All speakers have been hardwired back to the AV rack in the utility room.  They’re cheap Micca 6 Ohm in ceiling speaks I got off Amazon.  And I’ll only be using speakers for music as I have a dedicated home theater elsewhere.  Ideally I would like to have 2 zones.  The first zone would be in the gym where there are 2 speakers.  The other zone would be in the remainder of the basement where there are a total of 5 speakers.  My first thought was to have 2 Sonos Amps, but I understand that since I have an odd number of speakers in total (7), that would cause an issue here.  Second thought would be to get a multizone amp and connect 2 sonos ports to keep the zones separate.  I also have an old S2 connect I could implement somehow.  However, based on my initial research, this option would likely be much more expensive than

Hi I am installing 6 ceiling speakers in my home with 1 amp. A pair in each room so I am after 3 separate wall volume control. Has anyone every done this and does It restrict the output or quality of the speakers in any way? Can you also leave a link for the volume control you have used too please 🙂 Thank you 

Hello,I’d like to record vinyl via my Sonos amp and am interested if it is possible.My set up is:Sonos amp Technics 1210 Pre amp Macbook ProI have vinyl playing through the amp fine (although the delay is annoying).  Can I get an input from the amp into my laptop so I can record my vinyl digitally?Thanks!

Hi Guys,I have NINE Sonos Port streamers. I use Middle Atlantic racks with custom face plates. Does anybody out there have any other suggested solutions in this world? Thanks in advance for your advice!!!Jerry Del CollianoPublisher FutureAudiophile.com

what are the touch buttons on the front for?

Does anyone know if sonos amps are UL listed? Got an inspector wanting to see ul cert to pas final inspection

I have a Pro Ject Debut Carbon EVO TT connected to the phono RCA on a Marantz PM7000n amp. I have a Marantz CD6007 connected to the CD RCA on the amp. I have a Sonos Port connected to the amp via the recorder out RCA to connect to my era 300’s in stereo mode. Both TT, CD player and network radio all play music to my connected Sonos ERA 300’s. The issue I have is that every time I turn a record over or just lift the stylus from the record the Amp disappears from the ‘line in’ as a source in my Sonos S2 app. It states ‘source unknown’. The issue doesn’t happen if I change a CD.  I then have a nightmare waiting for the Port to display again in the app so I can select it as the line source. It just steps unknown until I close and open  the app a few times. It’s a right pain!! The port is set to source level 2 (AV component), line out is set to fixed and audio delay is set to 2000 ms. I’ve tried every setting in the app for the port to stop it dropping out from my app. Does anyone have any

I have an old Sonos Boost lying around that I used to run in an old S1 system. I no longer use S1.As I don’t need it anymore I’ve decided to sell it and thought I would do a quick test to make sure it still works. I have reset it but the new S2 app cannot find it when using ‘add speaker or component’.Are they no longer supported in S2?I have searched these forums but can’t find much info. Any help would be appreciated.

I have 2 issues: When playing a record on the turntable, I can only control the volume, etc from the Victrola app. The turntable does not appear in the Sonos app at all whilst playing. According to Victrola I should only need their app for initial set up and be able to use the Sonos app afterwards.  Having finished playing records on the turntable, all other sources, TV, streaming services become disconnected from Sonos. I have to unplug and reconnect my Beam to get  my Sonos speakers to recognise those sources again.  Any help gratefully received.
