Is the Network Matrix nowadays deprecated (ipaddress:1400/support/review)?I was just curious about that interface and if I can somehow improve my network based on those readings. Reason:For the past few days, I’d been having issues with certain music services not showing up on this list for addition. So out of curiosity I looked at the Network Matrix and other info. I was running my 4 x Sonos One + Port in SonosNet and all where showing green. Yesterday I then switched to Wi-Fi setup and still all were green later. Music services were not showing on the list.  This morning the missing music services came back to the list and was able to add Amazon Music. All has been working ok since. Out of curiosity I accessed the Network Matrix again but now it looks odd. There are no colors (just grey boxes), Noise floor is 0, 0, 0, 0 for all. The matrix also shows undefined entries. Those seem to be MAC addresses of the devices shifted slightly. E.g. the Sonos One 48:A6:B8:DC:85:17 shows also as u

I have a Sonos amp installed and using it for in wall speakers in my living room.  I want to add 2 outdoor speakers to my system.  I want to know if I use the same Sonos Amp, will i be able to run these 2 pair of speakers independent of each other with different inputs, etc…. If I can, what is the best way to make that happen?Thanks in advance  Chris

I just purchased a second Amp to use on our outdoor speakers. Both amps work independently, but when I try to connect them via the (new?) app on IOS, I get the message "Unable to connect. Try again later". I've followed all the suggested solutions given here on this forum and am now in the queue for a live person. Any other suggestions? Both amps will play music, they just won't sync up. Thanks!

I cant seem to find the details of the Sonos Connect Amp crossover anywhere. What I do know is that when an RCA wire is connected to the Sub out on the Connect Amp an 80Hz high pass filter is applied to the speaker outputs.   1. Is the subwoofer out low lass filtered at 80Hz? - seems yes, which is greatIs the speaker output high filtered?  Seems so, which is great. what is the order of the high pass and low pass filters?3. What type of filter? is it a Linkwitz-Riley?

The only way I could connect my Connect and Move so that they would be in perfect sync with each other was to have my two devices (turntable and CD player) go through a splitter then to the Connect and THEN to my receiver. The only downside of that was a 2 second delay so on the CD player having music start or stop 2 seconds later wasn't a big deal but it was weird putting the needle down on a record and not hearing anything for two seconds. But today I went to put a record on and…. NO delay?!?! Was something updated without my noticing it??

We are adding an addition to our home and I would like to utilize the Arc soundbar, two in ceiling speakers, and sub for TV watching. I will also be purchasing an Amp to control this.  1.) Does this setup make sense and can I run everything from that amp and the sound will sync with TV?I am also adding two outdoor speakers to the patio.  2.) Can I run the outdoor speakers to the same amp and use as a separate zone? Is whatever I am playing in the new room going to play on the patio? How would I go about making them separate zones? Two amps? A port?I feel like I am getting conflicting information online (shocking I know). This feels like it should be more straight forward. Appreciate the help Sonos peeps!

Does anyone know how long the connect amp two will be supported. Was thinking about purchasing one secondhand. 

Hey guys, I am looking to do the following set up:Sonos Amp 2 Klipsch aw6501 awr650sm Will I run into any issues?

want to use a denon DN11 DAB as a CD player and to hook up my record player and play through my Sonos speakers - can I do this?

Hello! I have my new construction home prewired ceiling with 2 speakers  on living room and two in basement. I have volume knob on each floor as well. Will one AMP suffice? I just want to be able to turn the volume down in basement while I’m playing in the livingroom. 

I have an amp and my backyard speakers connected to it. They are the type that spike into the ground and I also have the backyard sub. All of a sudden, I get really low volume on the speakers and a ton of base. Any idea what could be causing ? In Spotify I have the volume fully up  Moderator Note - Recorded and removed diagnostics from post.

Newb here, so this might be a dumb question. If I buy a heavily used Sonos Amp, will it sound just as good as a brand-new Sonos Amp? Another words, does the Amp wear out over time in terms of the sound quality it provides?

I’ve seen there are a few ways to hook up an analog stereo to Sonos speakers. I have a few pieces of kit going into a graphic equalizer and the EQ goes out to my current amplifier.What’s the best device for connecting all that to the Sonos? I’d guess the EQ can output directly to a Sonos Amp. That’s a lot of money. Are there other more economical options?I guessWhat’s the best What’s the most cost-efficient And what are the trade-offs between the two?

Looking to understand if there are any issues etc.  Also are there any alternative wifi sub’s that are better and will work with the sonos amp and keff wired speakers? many thanksM

Can my sub be used with Sonos amp and passive speakers

Hello Sonos gurus, my current setup in my 2 room apartment is:Android phone playing YouTube Music/TuneIn/whatever via BT Bedroom has a Como Audio Solo + Como Ambiente, forming a nice little stereo setup which recieves BT and duly plays the audio Living Room has an Aiyima D03 BT amp, which recieves the BT audio and powers 2 small but powerful-enough-for-me bookshelf speakersIt works just fine, except that I’m always moving between the rooms, and hence am always disconnecting & connecting the Como and the Aiymima on my phone. This is very tiresome.Hence, I am very interested if 2 Connects could be grouped together in order to play audio in both rooms without the faffing around. This seems a great fit for me if possible as I get to leverage my existing audio hardware.Since I’m a total Sonos n00b, I don’t really know where to start when determining if this setup is feasible and hence a few pointers / links would be fantastic.Cheers.

I have read that the Brennan B3 cd player is the “only” CD player that connects seamlessly to the Sonos era 300.  Can you verify?  I just bought the ERA 300 and connects to my iphone perfectly. But i would like to play my CDs wirelessly and “cast” to my new speaker.  What CD players will work without all the hassles and complications i have been reading about on your forums.. yikes, spent $500 euros. Help!

I’ve managed to aquire 3 old ZP100s which are still in working order. I have added them to my system but they aren’t showing in the upgrade pages.Are they part of the upgrade program or is there any way to check if they have already been used for this.

i am wondering if i can add a sonos sub gen3 to a setup with a sonos sub mini before i buy it.

Hi all. This may not make any sense but recently while playing CDs on a cheap DVD/CD player the sound cuts off periodically but ONLY when running through the line in of the port and ONLY when the port is set to Pass through from my pre amp. If I set the port to variable the music does not cut out. It should also be noted that on my metered pre amp the VU meters seem to always have a signal in that there is always movement. The CD player is connected to the pre amp via RCA cables and not into my pre amps DAC via coaxial cable as I am not sure my pre amp DAC works. Any ideas?

Is it safe and recommended to stack Sonos Amps?

Looking to label my Amps as I will have a centralized stack. Can I put magnet stickers on them or will that impact something internal? Sorry for ignorance.

My B&W AM1 speakers have started to ‘crackle’, is it likely the Sonos Amp has overpowered them and blown the drivers? Thanks
