Components & Architectural

Okay… my Sonos Connect is wired to an amplifier (Acurus) and I have speakers (Vandersteens) connected to the amplifier. When I use line-in to listen to records the sound cuts out. Often, more out than in. Why the heck would it do that and how do I fix it? Since almost all of this is analog and all of it is wired, I don’t understand how this could be a wi-fi or SonosNet or router issue. I do also have several Sonos speakers in the house, all of them wireless, and this isn’t happening with those speakers. The Connect goes to my router via Ethernet cable. Help?thank you

I have a Sonos Connect attached to a Sony receiver in my garage for my outdoor speakers.  I also have 5 other Sonos speakers in different rooms throughout the house.  Nothing has changed with the placement of these speakers or my wireless router for several years.  About 3 months ago whenever the Connect is being used for music playback the music intermittently cuts out.  There can be times where it is cutting out so often we can’t even use Sonos.  Other times it is very seldom and other times we can play music for 3 hours uninterrupted.  This happens when we are using the connect individually or grouped with one or more speakers.  We never have music cut out when using the other speakers without the Connect in the group.  Any ideas of what could be causing this?   

Let me start by saying my pal helped set this up because I am NOT an audio guy lol. However, my left speaker has started to buzz when the line in/analog is selected. I tried replacing the pre amp but that isn’t the issue, so that leaves my older zone player as the cause. Any suggestions on what to replace this setup with? Thanks! 

Am I able to place my Sonos Amp in the Attic or does it need to be in a temperature controlled environment.  Thanks

Can I have 2 different Ports connected to two different receivers and audio equipment in two different areas of my place ?

Hey! Man, I really could use some help here. I’m struggling to get any output from my Sonos Sub. Here’s the room setup:Thorens TD160 Music Hall pa15.3 phono pre-amp (line-in to play:5)(2) Play:5 gen 1 in stereo with Sonos Sub (one is direct connect to Wi-Fi and acts as the main controller for the rest of the house)line in source level set at 10This is at my folks house and it’s just temporary until I move next year sometime, but I cannot for the life of me get much of any bass coming out of the sub when I use line-in from the above set up. I set the “sub audio” to +15 and it’s still hardly working.  When I stream music the sub is knocking and it sounds great. I’ve used the turntable upstairs with a receiver, old speakers and a sub which sounds good and has plenty of bass. So, I don’t think it’s the cartridge although it’s not a great one. I’m pretty new to the turntable game so it definitely could be the pre-amp? But I’m thinking it’s something with my Sonos system.  Anyone have any ad

I have a Sonos amp I want to connect to 6 Sonos sonance architectural speakers. Can I simply use one speaker per room for whole home background music? I understand 2 per room is typical however we have other Sonos products for intense listening experiences. This is simply for background music. Many model homes simply use one per room… I also understand the single zone situation. Since the sonos sonance have 2 woofers then a single sonance can provide stereo sound to the room. Has anyone done this and are you happy with it?

My Move (model S17) connects to my Ion Bluetooth turntable no problem but then the sound doesn’t come out of the speaker. Any ideas what the issue is and how to fix it?(this is a recent issue and has been working fine for years. The Move has received all system updates).

Tengo un subwoofer y no puedo conectarlo de manera inalámbrica ya hice todo lo referente a los manuales SONOS y nada. Algún truco, secreto u otro que me puede ayudar? 

I am currently planning to use SONOS for all my music and TV-needs. I have a room that is 4x4m where I plan to have as a “base” for both TV and Vinyl/music listening. The setup I want to go for is Arc+Sub+2 Era100 in the TV room. Can I use one of the Era100s to connect the Vinyl Player to the SONOS network of speakers? And then in the room next to the TV room I want to have 2 Era100s in one zone, and 2 in another zone. Can I still send the vinyl from the Era100 to all the other speaker zones?

One of my outdoor Sonos Architectural speakers cracks all of the time.  Both speakers are hard wired to the amp with the suggested gauge.  Both wires are approximately 100 feet.  I’ve had the system for about 1 year.   I’ve uninstalled and installed the app, may consider trying new cables  Has anyone experienced the same issue and what did you to to fix the issue? 

Which components do I need to connect the Move 2 to the turntable from Sonos ? 

Is there any way to use a port with no line-in? I thought I could hook one up to my studio monitors, so for example I could stream audio from my phone and hear it through the studio monitors. But it seems that with no line level input, the Sonos app does not offer it as a device.

I am looking for the best way to hook up my  Fluance RT85 TurntableSony UBP-X800M2 (Blu Ray player that will be used for CDs)A Future Tape deckTo a Sonos port which will allow me to play those devices over my Arc/dual sub/duel Era 300 speaker system.Is there a preamp that will allow an HDMI input form the Blu Ray player?Any notable receivers that play nicely with the Port?  Any advice would be appreciated The goal is to play vinyl, CD and Tapes over my Sonos theater system.   No need to stream or do anything else.  Just play old fashion media through my room without buying standalone speakers Thanks 

Hi I’ve wired 4 Sonos in ceiling speakers back to my amp. These are brand new wires and no option to replace as buried in the house. I. Sound quality is poor. ‘Fuzzy’ and hollow and can’t take loud volumes. Are there settings on the amp that can address this? Could it be poor connections at the speakers or the amps?Any ideas? Thank you. 

I have a s3and S5 gen1 I think and my bridge is suddenly showing no power 😭. What can I do to get my system up and running as bridge are now not available.

I have a Sonos Connect that keeps dropping off my system.  The rest of the speakers keep playing music.  It’ll drop anywhere between a few seconds to until the next song comes on.  If I pause the song and play again, it comes back.  When it’s out, the Connect doesn’t show up in the app (iPhone).I’ve tried power cycling the Connect and that seems to work for a day and then it’ll start again.It’s not a “reset your wifi router” issue because it is hardwired with ethernet.  There is no IP addressing issue.  Anyone have an idea?

Hello,Our Sonos system consist of 2 Boosts, 5 Connect Amp compatible with S2, 1 Amp and 1 Arc.  The Connect Amps are distributed in the home while the Arc and Amp are in the living room connected to our television.  Boosts are needed to extend the Sonos network.I recently realized that a part of our home internet network was not working.  Some ethernet connections needed to be worked on.  I had to make changes in the wiring and the connections.I suspect that part of my problems were created when adding a TP-Link Deco mesh system on my home network to have a better signal in all our home that is not ethernet wired entirely.So I played around with all the wires and cables of our internet and Sonos networks.  When reconnecting everything, my Amp was not recognized anymore on my Sonos network and my Arc’s button were not responsive anymore.  I don’t know if the 2 problems are caused by the same problem.So I tried very hard to have my Amp recognize by the network.  I also tried resetting it

I have an Arc, LG TV, and surround setup via 2 Sonance in ceiling speakers along with a sub in our Family Room. When connecting to two Sonance in ceiling speakers in Kitchen the sound cuts in and out frequently. We do have 3 Sonos amps stored in a cupboard on top of each but I don’t assume that’s an issue given many people store their amps together. If anyone has any advice, please let me know.Thanks!  

I am installing a few pairs of in ceiling Sonos speakers. Everything is working great but the speakers are not added to my product list. Is there a registration page to enter serial numbers? Thanks

Whenever there is a loud sound during a movie (like an explosion) the volume suddenly turns way down and I cannot turn it back up. I have to turn off tv and turn back on to reset it. I have the TV plugged into sonos amp via HDMI and using sonance in wall speakers. Any suggestions?

My connect speaker stopped working and I cannot add it back to the system. Has blinking red light and will not clear with a factory reset. Sonos can’t see the connect box anymore WTH happened. My factory reset consists on powering on the connect box while holding the pause/forward button. Amber light comes on briefly, and then straight to flashing red.
