Seen a few answers for this but i’d like one from Sonos.

When will Trueplay be available & work on an iPhone Se 2 ?

I have tried setting this up with an older iPhone 8 still would n’t happen.

I have the latest version of the app & all software.

I’ve worked this out.

I deleted the Sonos app then did a factory reset on the Beam. You do this by removing the power cord from the Beam, then press & hold the reset button next to the connection ports at the same insert the power cord. Hold the reset button until the light on the Beam is orange. Now follow the instructions on the app to set up . Trueplay now appears in the app system sound settings.

Hopefully this will help others who purchase a used Beam.

The question I should be asking is does your Beam 2nd Gen sound better with Trueplay enabled ? If there’s little difference I won’t bother.

Yes, I have the Beam (gen2) in the Dining Room with a Sonos Sub and two Ones and I prefer that setup Trueplay tuned, as it brings clarity to the overall sound, both TV and Music - without it I find the audio slightly fuzzy (for want of a better description here). The Bass is warmer and more rounded, rather than thumpy. The overall sound is better ‘balanced’ in the room too. So I prefer it for those reasons.

After tuning, I also like the treble pushed up two notches aswell in the EQ settings, but that’s perhaps an ‘age thing’ on my part.

I would, at the very least, Trueplay tune your Beam room and see what you think, as you can always toggle it off if you don’t like the result.

@Geoff888,

Thanks for coming back and posting the solution. Glad to hear it’s sorted - and just to add, the ‘last resort’ steps for the ‘factory reset’ of a Sonos product is also shown in the link HERE.
