I have 2 old play ones that I paired with 2 sonos era 100s and 3rd gen sub, can stream anything and all play, but when I stream an album from an iPhone to speakers only the era 100s will play ….. any advice will be appreciated,i know apple stopped airplay1 that's why I bought era 100s so these old speakers SONOS ONE could connect through bluetooth ?

I’m a tad confused. Sonos has made PLAY:1 speakers, Sonos One speakers, and Era 100 speakers.

The PLAY:1s don’t support AirPlay 2, but can be grouped with speakers, such as your Era 100s that can. I do this frequently. 

Not sure I understand your question about Bluetooth, but any Sonos speaker (save the gen 1 Move) can also be grouped when receiving a Bluetooth signal to get their content played across multiple speakers.


There is a sequence dependency, I believe. One room acts as “master” so you must group the Play:1’s to the Eras, rather than the other way around. Maybe start the Bluetooth stream first, and then group in the P1’s.
