Controllers and Music services

Hello all,I've had my a Sonos system for over 10 years and I love it.  My wife and I recently relocated and bought a new home.  Unfortunately, the new house is wired with a Legrand On Q system.  The Legrand system is just ok, barely.  The Legrand system sounds pretty poor compared to Sonos.  Legrand also offers far fewer streaming options compared to Sonos  The structured cabling tech who installed my system for the builder was here today explaining the Legrand system to me.  He didn’t know of a way to hook my media server to the Legrand system, or how I might incorporate my existing Sonos.I’m thinking the Legrand will be ok for listening to music in the kitchen and living room, but I’d like to have my Sonos system in my media room where I can play files from my media server through my McIntosh amp.  I have a set of smaller Sonus Faber speakers hooked to the Mc and they could definitely be helped by my Sonos sub.  Here’s the Sonos equipment I own:BridgeConnectConnect ampSonos SubPlay 5

It would be nice to be able to adjust playback speed for podcasts and audiobooks.

Hi there,I’ve seen this topic popping on and off since a while now but still did not manage to figure out a solution for my particular case.What I have:2 x rooms, each with a Sonos Connect that then in turn goes to an existing 5.1 sound systemWhat I’m trying to achieve:Play laptop sound (not just songs..but for example also iTunes content or VLC movies sound) over the Sonos connect in a certain room So far I’ve seen:some Sonos speakers have Airplay..not the Connect => not sure if something would be possible here an app Airfoil → should normally see speakers..in my case the Sonos Connect was not visible in it (not sure it is supported though)And I’ve reached a dead-end :)Do I have anything else that I can explore or try out?

I would like a method to keep track of recently added music. I used to do this with my CD's. Instead of immediately filing new CD's with my existing CD's, I would leave them in a pile next to the CD player for a few weeks. The new music would get heavier play than my older CD's. I used to leave them out until I had listened to them a number of times. It would be nice to create an electronic way to do the same thing.

Seriously half tempted to return the sonos system back after finding out today there is no power off option on a 2000$ system "let alone no remote forcing you to use a phone or tablet to adjust any settings". Having it on cost money as anything requiring power does! The system is staying on for hours with nothing connected to it. There is no reasonable explanation why there should not be and adjustable auto off option or even power off option this far in todays technolog. For the price this is an unexceptable oversight! Over all not happy with a 2000$ system that should have basic features. I mean with that mentality we should just leave our car running because we "may"... need to use it in the next hour!

Recently installed fiber connection. App not recognizing fiber WiFi!!  BUT, 2 of 3 speakers play!  When it does show up, it says I don’t have any registered speakers!  Can’t add 3rd speaker!  Reset all speakers!  I’m sure it’s operator error, but I’m getting really disturbed!

Been trying to connect speakers all day as unplugged one last night and not working.  There is no settings or menu on the app and wondering if anyone else has same problem?

Just bought one of your products and installed the app. A nasty unpleasant surprise realizing you guys think a tie-in on a payed service/product is a smart move.

How do I remove devices (speakers, boost, etc) from my account if I plan to sell them?

The Now Playing widget shows Album, Artist and track title. It doesn't show the Composer name, even though Sonos has this information in its indices. Many classical albums are a composite program of works by various composers. When a track is queued, or playing, there is no way whatsoever to discover who the composer is. The titles given to classical works often give little clue; eg. "String Quartet No. 8 in E minor, Op 59.2: I. Allegro" ... pick the composer? It is very disappointing that this feature hasn't been implemented after 5+ years of requests from customers who enjoy classical music. I can't see why it isn't self evident that feature is required. In most instances a Sonos improves upon playing music from a physical cd; ie. I don't have to find it, and then put it away. This is an instance where the use of a Sonos degrades the experience; ie. I am listening to something, but I can't tell what it is, as I have no longer have access to the cover.

Hello sonos I could really use that sonos could be put in jukeok's mode and there is only one mobile / ipad on system and when you press the song that song is in line and does not start and play the song and delete the queue! thinking it might be possible to put a code that locks the system to a certain function (jukebox)

I talked to SiriusXM about this but they couldn’t help. Does anyone know how to make a channel a favorite in the SiriusXM section of the Sonos app? I’m on the new iPhone 11 Pro, if that makes a difference. Thank you!

I have nearly $2000 of Sonos equipment. I love Sonos. Now comes Trueplay for tuning my Sonos speakers. What? Only iOS? Does anyone else here have an Android phone? I have used a Yamaha 4000 sound bar for years with speaker tuning and I love it. I really think Trueplay would improve my Sonos experience so I guess I better get an iPhone? :S:?

Anyone know the maximum number of songs, albums, playlists, etc. that can be stored in My Sonos?

Does Sonos support the new 360 audio format available on Tidal and Deezer?

so I’ve recently signed up on the family plan with Apple Music. When I go to use Sonos my music and playlists are visible, but when other family members try to play their music choices on the same device, its only my music and playlists that are shown!? I can’t see a way to change this in settings. Surely this can’t be right? If they link via Bluetooth it’s ok, just not via WiFi!?

I have increasing scepticism about the extent to which the current control mechanisms are getting in the way of using my Sonos (and, to be fair, other devices around the home). If I break down the basics of listening to music: Choose some music to play... I want this to be screen based with sufficient screen estate to see an array of choices. Mobile phone and tablet is OK but the Google Nest Hub as a primary interface better still. Voice control is limiting - I can never remember what playlists are called... In-play control (volume, start, stop, skip, etc)... I want this to be hardware based - a simple remote control with actual buttons and knob or slider for volume. Affordable to have a few around the house so one is always at hand, perhaps with cradles so they can be wall mounted but removable too. On this count voice control is too unpredictable and, again, requires remembering, for example, "stop" instead of "off" - the latter does not work... Mobile devices are a pain... FInd

Hello. Im making a semi audiophile setup for my pc. I'm going for KEF LS50 or maybe a used pair of KEF R300.For the amplifier im looking into Sonos Amp, but my concern is, can I use wireless for pc gaming for example? I Want to leave my onboard sound card for my headphone. Any sugestion on how to use Sonos Amp as my pc amp once it dont have USB in?

Morning All. I bought the 820 with the explanation that I could integrate my existing Sonos network with the Onkyo. I have yet to see the Works with Sonos option via the menu. I am running the latest Onkyo firmware and still no option. Anyone have any insight on this? THanks in advance!S

I opened the sonos app on the iphone 11 and it asked me if I wanted to connect via bluetooth. I wasn't logged in so it was just the raw sonos app. I chose yes and it connected to the speakers. Still wondering how that happened considering sonos Play 1 is not known to have bluetooth capabilities.  I then checked on the iphones settings and bluetooth was off.  It might have connected via wifi but still baffled. Aomeone, please help.

Playing music from my cell phone it says (Amazon Music HD)Track Quality: 16-Bit / 96 KHzCurrently Playing at 16-Bit /44.1 KHz Is it just not possible to play at the 96 KHz (im assuming that’s better than 44.1KHz)

I appear to have enabled the recently played feature but find it to be not useful for me.  I want to disable it but can’t find a way. I’ve been through all the Settings options.  Surely there is a way?

Why do the Sonos controller apps constantly lose connection ? The last 6 months or so both the iOS and Windows controller apps have been buggy as hell, never connect properly, buggy as hell. Don't tell me it's my network, all of my speakers work 100% fine when controlled via Alexa and stream audio from TuneIn, Apple Music and Spotify which wouldn't be the case if it was a network issue. Can you stop adding pointless features and work on stability please !!!!

I have a Play 5 (2nd Gen) and Play 1 and since I was notified last night that an upgrade had happened I now struggle to get any playback at all. My Bluesound devices and airplay devices all work fine so it’s not a Wi-fi strength issue (around 25mbps) so I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue since the update? I get a few seconds of music and then it cuts out and regular disconnection issues with the speakers (cannot locate a speaker) and ‘unable to playback’ messages. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Have 1 beam, 1 sub-woofer and 1 play5. How can I listen music without buying another expensive unit. Sonos DID NOT answer my question. Thanks.
