Tried hooking my Sonos Era 100’s to my PC, worked for about 30 minutes then just stopped outputting any audio. Its still connected and any inputs I make on the speakers are reflected on my PC (song skip/volume changes) but there is still no output. The device is set as default and I have it selected as my main audio output device.Tried turning off and on Bluetooth, running audio troubleshoot, restarting both devices and still no luck. Any ideas on how to rectify this issue?

Hi,I have an existing Project turntable (with built-in phono preamp), an integrated stereo amp, a Sonos port, and external speakers and I’m after thoughts on the best way to connect them up.I could connect the TT (using the built-in phono preamp) to the port, then connect the port to an input (CD?) on the stereo amporConnect the TT (bypassing the built-in phono preamp) to the phono input on the stereo amp, and connect the Port (CD?) to another input on that ampWould either approach produce the same sound quality, or would the DAC in the port provide a better outcome perhaps?Would one approach be better from a user experience perspective e.g. connecting the TT to the Port and using autoplay for line-in, etc thanks in advance 😊

hi everybody,I’m using a Project elemental turntable (no pre-amp) with my sonos system through my sonos 5.It works fine but due to the lack of pre-amp on my turntable, I have to put the volume of my spreaker very high.So I bought a Nano LP1 pre-amp (RIAA equalization).Now, the sound is horrible. There are crackling noises that make the music inaudible.When I remove the pre-amp, the sound is back to normal (but I have to turn the volume up to maximum again) I went back to the store to get the Nano LT1 replaced but I have exactly the same problem with the new one. I tried to lower the source level with my sonos app but it didn’t solved the problem.Does someone have an idea?Thanks for any advice.NicolasEdit : I tried with different cables...

I have a new 5.1 Sonos surround setup that I am looking to connect an existing non Sonos 2.1 PC speaker setup I have in my office. These speakers (Corsair SP 2500) are powered but not connected to an outside amp or receiver. Everything I see about the port discusses connection to a receiver or amp. I am wondering if the port will enable my existing speakers to tie into my Sonos setup?

Hi,  I am having problems with my Sono’s system dropping speakers and stop playing music unexpectedly so I purchased a new Sono’s Boost.  The instructions didn’t work at all.  After plugging the Boost into the Ubiquiti Amplifi system the Sonos app couldn’t find it.  I called tech support and got a person that I could barely understand.  He walked me through rebooting the router, rebooting all 6 speakers, deleting and readding the sonos app, and factory resetting the boost.  After over an hour on the phone I had to pause.  I have reset the entire system at least 6 times now.  Finally the Sonos app found the boost. When I went to add it there was a point it said to pressing the flasing infinity light on the Boost.  The problem was the light would never flash.  After pressing it anyway, the app went into an error 800.  It tried unsuccessfully to update the boost.  It never got it added and somehow I ended up losing 3 of the speakers from the system.  I have a main router from AT&T del

I have a vintage JVC amp in the following configuration: Audio Technica AT-LP3 turntable JVC AX-1 amplifier Marantz CD-63 cd player  Wharfedale Diamond 220 speakersThis set up is in one room, along with a Sonos Port. A Sonos Era:100 is located in another room, at the other end of the house.I don’t have a manual for the amplifier, but do have a vague recollection concerning a difference between Tape-1 and Tape-2 (an image shows the amp’s connections) -- I have read some posts here and elsewhere that recommend using the tape out/record sockets to connect a vintage amplier to a Sonos Port.So far, I have had mixed results integrating the Port and the Era with this set-up.When the Era in the kitchen is playing Radio 4 via the BBC Sounds app, I can send the signal to the Port and the signal plays in both rooms.However, sending audio the other way is proving to be a bit trickier.After much fiddling/tapping on the app and experimenting with RCA connections between ampliflier and Port, I have s

I have two Five’s and the Victrola Stream Carbon. My internet as of late has been slower and I’ve got three kids streaming massive amounts of data all the time haha so I feel like the sound quality of my setup has diminished lately. Even though I have each component plugged into the back of our router. Is there a way to hardwire each speaker to the turntable so everything isn’t reliant on our internet? TIA. 

Himy sonos system is 10 years old. It includes a pair of play5 speakers, a playbar, and a zone bridge and is operated with the s1 app. I have recently moved to a house where I am using starlink for internet access. The starlink router does not have an Ethernet port. is it possible to use my system without connecting the wifi router to the zonebridge with an Ethernet cable?

My current Sonos system: Playbar, Sub, One SL (qty. 2).  I want to connect a turntable (I’ve not decided if it will include a pre-amp or not).  Assuming I use a turntable without a pre-amp, and do not utilize a non-Sonos receiver or amp, what are my best options for turntable connection to my Sonos One SL speakers?  Would a Connect Amp work, or is another solution preferable?

I am considering buying the Sonance - MAG6.1 - Mag Series 6.1-Ch. Landscape Outdoor Speaker System Powered by Sonos® currently on sale at Best Buy. My existing home theater system consists of a Denon 1600AVR with in-ceiling speakers and a couple of Denon Home speakers in various rooms that I can control and stream through using HEOS. Would the landscape system above and my existing system be compatible such that I can stream the same thing inside and out? If so, how would I go about doing that?

Hi,I just ordered the outdoor amp and architectural speaker set.  I’m assuming the answer is no, but wondering if I can split the two speakers the outdoor set comes with so I can put one speaker in the front yard, and one speaker in the back yard, and play one without the other, or have one playing one source, and the other another source. General idea be using them like a move or a “one”? And if so, would they individually play in mono, or would one be left and one right channel? Thanks

There is an orange marking on the Sony input.  I know the Sonos uses 1/8 RCA but don’t know what the other end uses.

When I plug in my connect amp the light turns white for a split second, then turns off and will not come back on. Does not respond to a hard reset. I have disconnected and reconnected power, and run diagnostics within ten minutes of the problem. Here is my diagnostic confirmation number: 1352236845

Hello I’m thinking of adding a turntable to my Sonos set up , I curently have the Sonos arc , 2 play ones and the sub , does the turntables that I see on the Sonos web connect to my set up and play ? 

I am in the middle of a home build and am considering the architectural speakers, amp, and arc for a 65 “ TV. My question is, is there any difference in quality of architectural speakers vs Era 100? The room is approx. 18 x 20 ft. 

I have my Denon turntable connected to my Marantz SR5015 amp, and just connected my Sonos 5 via AC ports labeled CBL/SAT (per instructions any AC in ports should work) on back of Marantz. Have Phono chosen on input selector on the amp. The Sonos app sees and can play this line in set up, but no sound is coming out. I’ve double checked connections, and the Sonos five definitely does work with other music in. 

I currently own a Beam with two One SL's. I wish to connect my vinyl record player to my Sonos set-up  so i was thinking about getting a Sonos port. Now I read that the port does not support the sub or sub mini. Will I be able to connect a sub to my current set-up, and use that together with the port to listen to my vinyls? I do not own a separate sound system other than mentioned Sonos set-up.

Dear communityi have an existing Sonos system and I just bought a JBL partybox 310 Bluetooth speaker. Is it possible to add this non Sonos Bluetooth speaker to my existing Sonos system ? Thanks for your advice 

Does the Sonos Connect work with Sonos 2 app?

Hi,Please help - Love this community but stuck on a I have a Sonos Amp connected to Sonance Mag speakers. Now I have purchased Sonance Rock speakers with a Subwoofer.  Is it possible to connect the Sonance Rock with Sub to the Sonance Mag in Parallel?  If I cannot connect the sonance Rock with Sub in Parallel? Is it best to get another sonance Amp? And then should I connect the Sonance Sub directly to the Sub output of the Amp OR can I connect the sub directly to the speakers using the low and high pass filters?  

I have 5.1 in ceiling/wall speakers wired to an HK Receiver (NO ARC FUNCITIONALITY).  I have my LG TV connected via Optical to the receiver.  I want to connect the SONOS CONNECT to the receiver and play music or the TV without toggling outputs on the receiver.Can I route TV through SONOS CONNECT so that I can play either TV or music?

I have a Boost connected to router via LAN cable, a 2nd Boost connected wirelessly and have bought a 3rd Boost (I have a large 3 storey house and want the coverage at the top of the house), the 3rd Boost is showing in my system but only as connected if I attach a LAN cable, as soon as I disconnect the cable the Boost drops it’s connection.  I can see it in the S2 app but just can’t get it to connect wirelessly (like my 2nd Boost)…… is there any known issue that would cause the 3rd Boost to not connect wirelessly?

hi , is this model compatible with s2 app?? thanks! Moderator Edit: Removed picture including serial number

I have Beam + Sub + 2 x ERAs (set up as a surround system)I also purchased a line-in adapter to attach a turntable to the system via one of the ERA 100s. (I have two as a back pair to act as surrounds.)I could not then in Music (settings) see the line-in as a music source. So, playing around with the settings I unbonded the ERA 100s and then the music from the turntable came out of the line-in speaker (rear left). Checking the S2 app I then was able to see line-in in Music. However, as I said no music from the other ERA 100.I then proceeded to set up the two ERA 100s as a stereo pair, but confusingly once completed the music came out of the Beam and not out of the ERA 100s.So, I am very confused. I just need to understand if I am doing something wrong. So:Do I always have to unbond the ERA 100s to get music to play from one ERA 100 only? Is there a way to get the line-in ERA 100 to pair with the 2nd ERA 100 to create a stereo pair to play music? Is there a solution to get the turntable

Bonjour,Je viens de faire l'acquisition d'un sonos zp90 pour pourvoir diffuser le son de mon système vidéo sur mes enceintes play:1.Je rencontre un problème frustrant, je ne detect pas le zp90 malgré une réinitialisation au paramètres d'usine. Savez-vous si ce matériel est complètement obsolète et si non quel application utiliser (s1 ou s2) et si il y a une raison précise à mon problème peut-être que je ne fais pas les choses bien.Merci d'avance.
