Hello everyone, I moved into a new house which has ceiling speakers in most rooms.  I think 8 rooms in total.  I have used Sonos for 18 years so I want to continue to do so.  All of the speakers are cabled back to one server room.  DO I need to purchase an amp for each zone that I want to control?  Or is there a more economical way around this? Also what is the maximum distance from Amp to speaker allowed? Many thanks John 

I just upgraded my original connect system to a new port, however I can’t seem to connect it to my existing Sonos 1 speaker. The new system works on my hifi but cannot find the existing Sonos speaker. The speaker does show when using my laptop but the new port doesn't. Can anyone help?

I have old rectangular in ceiling speakers that connect to a sonos amp.  I want to replace the speakers and not have to do too much patch work.  Can I use the in wall rectangular speakers in the ceiling?

After a moving I’m installing my Sonos product in my new home. During the process to add my Sonos Connect to the Sonos system, I get the message “press the button whit the white blinking light”.I have pressed it many times, but the app answer me “we do not detect the pressure of the button” and the process halts. I have repeated it many times and I got always the same result: installation failure.  Any suggestion?

Hi, I have purchased a bluetooth transmitter & receiver: KN321 that i had planned to a to my mixer / turntables, but a cant seem to add the transmitter signal to my SONOS app. I can fairly easily add the device in receiver mode on my iphones bluetooth connection, even receive the transmitter signal (in transmitter mode) from ie. my computer to a set of bluetooth headphones - but the app can’t seem to add the product / signal to my speaker system / sonos app.What to do? Best,/M

Hello,I have a Pro-ject turntable connected to my Sonos Era 100 and i would like to listen to records with a bluetooth headphone. I had big hopes for the Sonos Ace to work on WiFi but unfortunately the Ace only works with Bluetooth. I understand that my Era 100 has Bluetooth but only can receive and not transmit.  Does anybody solved this problem already?Joost

Hi everyone,I am a beginner in this field. We got this second hand system in my house. We have Sonos speakers installed in the walls and ceiling. We have an entertainment stand with Apple AirPort Extreme, a switch, a Sonos connect, a Denon AVR-X2600H and a subwoofer. There is another Sonos connect in the pantry room connected to other wall Sonos speaker. I don’t see green light on sono connects and cannot hear sound from speakers. Appreciate any help and assistance.   

Hi,I’d like to buy a turntable that would work with my playbar, play1 and minisub. Can anyone help please?

I have a Sonos Amp and the Sonos App. When I try to use the IOS Home app to connect to the amp or direct AirPlay from the iPhone, it asks for the AirPlay password (see screenshot). I’m not sure where to set this and whether it’s functionally correct.  

Sonos had been doing well with a Connect:AMP unit, but then started to drop out. I unplugged the AMP and plugged it back in, and now it is off the network. The Android app I have is 80.09.04-release+20240917.6a71457I have a pair of left and right Play:1’s and they work fine. I have a Roam SL and it works fine. The Connect:AMP shows up in it, but every time a try to play something, I get “Something went wrong.”  So what went wrong? How can I find out?  

Hey guys,I have just bought a Sonos Amp and have connected my record player to it via the RCA outputs, I’m just wondering if I can also connect my cd player? Is it possible to use an HDMI cable from the HDMI output on the Amp then attach a Sonos Optical Audio Adapter which then plugs into the Optical output of the cd player?Thanks!

Have turntable and port.has been working great across full system. Now no sound.  Says line in and shows music  but not coming thru speakers

Hello. The 3.5” driver foam on a Play:1 speaker has cracked. I believe this was a common problem. I want to replace the entire driver. Does anyone know of a direct replacement? NB that the (4) hole pattern of the driver’s frame is (oddly) 72 x 77mm. Codes I have found on this driver are: (front, in the rubber surround) SONOS 405-00314 REV A CAV 31; (rear, on a small white sticker) 180-00057 PHWP17102602185 

The light on my Bridge is flashing /blinking very fast at least 5 times per second no action on the buttons does anything !! Obviously not dead but cannot include in my setup!!!what can I do ?

the sonos do not succed to connect appli sonos.

My Sonos Amp (connected to an LG TV using HDMI ARC) appears to randomly mute the sound output without any user intervention.It usually mutes about 8-10 min into playing:The sound cuts out, the Amp’s green light comes on for about a second, immediately turns off again, and the sound comes back. This whole spiel repeats about 5 min later.Yes, everything is on the latest software, there are no neighbours having fun with my setup, no apps are interfering. It appears to happen just by itself. And only just started about two weeks ago out of the blue.Any solutions?

Hi, I have an existing small multi room setup.I have a Brennan B2 which speaks to Sonos. Sonos system is a portable roam in one room, and a Sonos one in another.I have a bang Olufsen system in another room. I would like the B&o system to appear on the Sonos system so I can send music to it in the same way I can imagine the other rooms.Is this possible? Many thanks.

I have 5 x Sonos 1 and 1 x Sonos SL (the one with Alexa). All the speakers run off the new app (App2 I think). I play my music via Spotify. I want to play music from my turntable and have been told I would need a Sonos 5 as it has the socket required to run an alternative music source through it. To keep costs low I was hoping to buy a 2nd hand Gen 1 Sonos 5, but a few sellers say it will only work from App1. Yet I run both Gen1 and Gen 2 Sonos 1’s  from the new app.  Would I be ok in buying a Gen 1  Sonos 5 to get what I want, connect my turntable.   Hope all this makes sense.

Been a Sonos user for many years with double digit zones throughout the house. Recently upgraded to S2 a few months back. I have a sonos connect amp (s2 compatible) that a I purchased recently. When attempting to add the connect amp, the app immediately recognizes it and connects to it for the set up process. However, when I get to the final stage of pressing the play/pause button when it is blinking, it always fails to recognize the button press. I eventually get the message that “we didn’t detect a button press from the Connect: Amp with the flashing light. I’ve reset the connect amp several times and  I’ve also tried connecting the device via ethernet cable without any luck. Any other options? Very disappointing to be running into these issues.

Hi, I normally flip my eras in and out of surround sound mode for my beam.. however it won’t let me tonight as it it’s asking for an update to the system. Looks like it’s an old gen 1 connect causing issues.  I thought it was dormant as I’m only working on s2 and didn’t expect that to be visible (which it isn’t in the homepage) I’ve tried doing a factory reset on it and downgrading it to s1, but this fails. Any ideas how to lose it completely from the state so s2 operates normally? 

Hi everyone,im super confused about how I can get a turntable to work with my current setup. I recently bought a Victrola stream carbon and it worked great until the belt started slowing down and as a result of this, I have returned the turntable. I need an alternative.  I have 2 One’s and a Sub Mini in a 2.1 setup. I am looking for connect a turntable to this setup so that sound plays through this system, but none of them have a line in input. What do I need to buy (besides a new turntable with a preamp) to get the turntable to play thorough my 2.1 setup, and if I upgrade the one’s to era 100’s, and connect a turntable through line in, will it still play to to both era 100’s and the sub? any advice appreciated. Thank you! 

new EE hub does not see sonos S1 port

What is the maximum recommended distance to connect Sonos Outdoor by Sonance and a Sonos Amp, as well as the cable gauge?

Just found out my $500 Turntable purchased from Sonos doesn't reset the tone arm at the end of the album. It just spins and clicks, potentially damaging the needle. You’d think they would let you know this.. So basically I have to be right on top of it...And the hits just keep on coming!
