Components & Architectural

I have an old first gen Sonos system.  Play 1,3 and 5.  I still use the Sonos S1 app.  I also use a Sonos Connect to listen to Sonos on my home stereo system through a pioneer amplifier and Bose speakers.  This all works well. I want to listen to my turntable and cds on the rest of my Sonos system, not just on my stereo system and Bose speakers. I know I could plug the turntable or cd player directly into the Sonos Connect to the analog Input, but there are 2 problems with this.  First, there is only room to plug one of them in, and second this would mean they were not plugged into my stereo system.  So, my question is, how/can I have these components on my stereo system through my receiver and also be able to have them extend through my Sonos.  Any help greatly appreciated.   

Hey guys.Today my Sonos Port underwent an update. And after that it didn't connect anymore, even my account seems to have disappeared.I've tried every possibility listed in the Sonos help file and nothing works.Any other suggestions? 

After searching threads on this site, I am STILL unable to successfully play radio output from my Yamaha receiver, (RX-V373) via a Sonos Connect (S15, Gen 2 mfg 05/2019), to play through my Play:1 and/or Roam SL speakers.Once I get this working, I’ll hook up my turntable (unamplified) and CD player to it.Here’s a photo of the back of my receiver. I have tried RCA cables connected to the Audio Out jacks (lower right hand corner of the photo)In each case, I’ve connected them to the Analog Audio “In” jacks on the Sonos Connect. My Overall System has 3 components:Living Room: Play1Living Room: Connect (Model S15, manufactured 05/2019)Living Room: Roam SLConnect menu shows the Line-in is connected.The Line-Out only has a choice for Line-Out Level (I chose “variable”). I’m clearly missing something crucial!Thanks! 

Sur un sonos CONNECT ( modèle indiqué sur l’étiquette au dos de l’appareil  ) à quoi servent les entrées Audio IN et les touches de volume ?What’s the of analog inputs and volume control on a Sonos CONNECT?

I have great difficulty playing CDs through the port, and cannot play cds without the port. Does anybody have any suggestions?  It is an old system Yamaha amp and Rotel CD player. 

Hello!! I’ve been a Sonos user for a while now but have a few questions regarding my amp. I have a home system with multiple Eras (100s and 300s), One SL, Play 3, Move, Roam and a pair of Klipsch AW 525s hooked up to a Sonos amp. After doing some research the Klipsch’s are 8 Ohms with 75W of handling. I’m a looking to add another pair of speakers to the amp but am wondering if I can do with a pair of 100W 8 Ohm speakers. Can I do this or would this be to much for the amp to handle and would I have to get a separate amp for this?

I am a little concerned about all the posts that talk to the 75ms input delay.  That may be the major issue throw my way as a deal breaker but I thought I’d still ask.I have an old ZP120 amp. We do a bit of karaoke at home with a little speaker with colourful light (kids love it). However, we can't get enough microphones connected for a decent singalong. My thought was buying a 4 way Bluetooth microphone mixer (with 6.35mm output jack), that I could connect with a 6.35mm to RCA cable, and plug that into the Sonos amp with speakers plugged in direct. We'd use TV to play the karaoke itself (music and lyrics) separate to this setup (alongside a disconnected whirly disco light). No use of the S1 app, just connectivity. Does that sound like it would work or does someone see an issue?

Hi have a turntable working with the Play 5It won’t sync with my Era 100 with playing the turntable. I have checked that but are set to line in (turntable)Tested amazon, music works and syncs just fine both ways, its only when I try and sync the turntable it fails.On the app it looks like its working, there’s graphic sound bars going up and down as if it is working.Any advice out there in the world of Sonos? 

I cant connect my sonos connect to my system..I try to reset it ,   my sonos is always searching and it never see it 

I have a Sonos boost that I factory reset and am trying to set up as the hub for my system to replace a speaker that’s currently the SonosNet node (all devices are boost compatible). The boost is showing a flashing green light however it is not showing up in my s2 app when I go to add a new product. I’ve tried a couple of resets but it doesn’t seem to work. Not sure what else I can do. The phone and the boost are right next to each other. Could you help me troubleshoot this? 

I’ve installed a Pro-Ject turntable and a port. Connected the port to the WIFI. Now I get no sound using the turntable and nothing from the speakers for TV, streaming services, etc.  When I go to TV, for example, and select all the speakers in my ecosystem, the app indicates it cant connect.   I’ve got no use of my Sonos now for anything. 

Hello Everyone, just bought a Connect Amp Gen 2,  I wanted to confirm the boot sequence to check I don't have one on the way out. My previous G1 connect amp started flashing the white light as soon as power was applied, and finally staying solid once connected. I expected the G2 to do the same, this time when power is applied, the white light comes on solid for 3 seconds, then goes out for 20 seconds, comes on again flashing until connected then Solid. The 20 seconds with no light is very consistent, so am hoping this is normal ?. Can anyone confirm this is the same on their G2 connect amp pleaseThanks very much 👍  

Hi,I have an old S2 Connect Amp and 2 x 8ohm speakers, i though i was smart so i combined one of the speaker leads from each speaker and so on the connect amp on the speaker output both blacks are connected together and then separete L and R goes to each speaker. The amp plays but cuts at 60% volume. Is this wrong what i have done ? Should i go back to separate black lead to each speaker ?/donib

Hi,my wife just bought me the pro ject T1 turntable which I was going to connect to my Sonos play 3.  However my old play 3 only has the Ethernet connection. Is there a way to connect?  thanks in advance.

After several talks with tech support and browsing through all the highly technical and confusing messages on here, I could not get my Sony turntable to play with my older generation Sonos system.  I have a One, a Move, and a soundbar, and didn’t want to replace those.  Returned the Sony turntable, got the Victrola Stream Onyx on sale for $399 and in FIVE MINUTES I had the turntable setup and playing through my existing system.  It sounds beautiful.  If you are struggling to play vinyl on your existing system, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Victrola Stream!!  Wish I’d just started out with it and wanted to share what I learned the hard way.

I have an existing Sonos system. In the living room it has a Sonos ARC, Sub 3, and two One SL speakers.Office has a Sonos ERA 300. Just got a Victrola Stream onyx turntable.  I used the Victrola app (per the instructions in the new box) to attempt to set up the new turntable.  I was successful at linking it to my network through the Victrola app.  It did not give me any options I could find to add it to my existing sonos system in the Victrola app.  I went over to my Sonos app to attempt to add the Victrola Stream onyx to my sonos system.  The sonos app could not find the Victrola Stream Onyx.  I did a factory reset on the Victrola Stream Onyx.  The Sonos app still cannot locate the new Victrola Stream Onyx after the factory reset.  I have unplugged and plugged back in the Victrola Stream Onyx in addition to the factory reset and still no success with the sonos app finding the new Victrola Stream onyx.  Any ideas?

I recently bought a couple CR200s. I added them using a wired ZP80. They are now working on the system. My concern is that I cannot see them showing up on sonos.com or the S1 app. This limits me because I wanted to take advantage of the upgrade discount they would have. How can I make them show up in my sonos.com system/upgrade page if I have already added them to my system and they are working correctly?

I have 5 amps (one current generation) and one old soundbar, since the App major update, I have not been able group them. I get the “Unable to Connect”.For a brief period, I did have one update for all the units and it worked for a very short period. Then it failed again for months. Since 3 units are in one open area, it is very important to be able to group them. I tried power cycling all the units, no luck. They are all upto date for the software.  If it prolongs much longer, it would have to replace all the until with alternatives.  And not get any additional Sonos in the other rooms.

I have a Project turntable running through a vintage Pioneer Receiver—SX 828, and just recently added a Sonos Port.  It works great to stream from our phones through the Pioneer and also the Sonos 5 and Era 100, but when I try to play vinyl, I can’t get anything out of the Sonos side.  Still plays great through our Pioneer system.  For the Port, I have the out going to the AUX to stream, and then ran RCA’s from the Tape Recording to the Port’s in, but still nothing.  The app shows that my line in is a turntable, but it never shows anything playing, so I am clearly not setting something.  Have confirmed that this receiver has a signal out for that Recording connection, so think it is something to do with how I have the Port configured.  Open to any suggestions.  

Took it all to the dump today— three speakers, bridge, amp… used to work fine then after one year of app updates and failure to connect I pulled the plug. A systemAbsolutely so primitive.  Spent way too much money on Sonos, but can’t take it snymore! Bye Bye ! YS Sonos! 

I am considering purchasing a turntable with the Five as a set. Will this also connect to a set of 100’s and 300’s?

I am getting ready to install two ceiling speakers in my kitchen and connecting them to a Sonos amp in the living room. I’m wondering about wiring. The amp uses banana plugs but it looks like the speakers don’t. Will the holes in the ceiling speaker except banana plugs? can I tighten down or is it need to be unterminated  cable that goes into to the ceiling speakers?

I have a simple Crosley Voyager Turntable that I’d like to connect via Bluetooth to my setup. I use a Beam and 2 Era 100 surrounds connected to TV. Turntable suggests I can simply put it and the desired speakers into pair mode to connect them.  My Era 100s are physically located right near the turntable though when I press the Bluetooth button on the Era I get no chime noise to indicate it can pair to anything. Any ideas?
