Volume normalization

common Sonos, very disappointing for a so called high end system. I have been listening to different playlist from spotify, i.e. spotify time capsule.  and the differences between the songs sound level is annoying, even such that I changed to my old fashion receiver and connected spotify via my phone and aux.  With tears in my eyes i have to say that i am very disappointed in Sonos that sound level normalization is not possible. I see no further reason to invest in sonos systems and return to my old fashioned Technics dolby surround system. The attitude of Sonos towards this issue exists for multiple years and,yet, still no solution for sound level normalisation for streaming services  from Amazon prime, Deezer, Soundcloud, Spotify etc.

I too would like to see this feature added.  Every so often a commercial comes in 50% louder than all the others.  Didn’t the FCC stop this once?  I would gladly like a feature that could be turned off for high dynamic music listening and on for watching TV or jumping between inputs.

The latest Sonos app has a new GUI I noticed.  It has a nighttime mode (I think that is what they called it) which limits volume, and can also boost voices for quiet night time viewing when the family is asleep.  It works well and takes care of the normalization issue.

That’s not new, first appeared with the Playbar back in the day.

I am very surprised to see the volume normalization is not yet implemented. Very annoying and I hope Sonos will soon figure out how to add this feature. 

Is this for real?? Seriously Sonos hasn’t fixed this?? Come on! 
 

how many years are people gonna ask for this and do they even look at this forum or are we wasting our time?

after years of asking-please just add this important feature!

They have your money. Why would they care?

Relatively new to Sonos, and have been frustrated that this feature isn’t available. 

I have had to give up trying to play classical music as background or to sleep to, as there are some songs I literally cannot hear at all, but another song can be so loud it will wake me up in a jolt! 

Come on Sonos.. please get cracking on this update!

Bumping this to ask the question: given the above, normalisation by Spotify should work well if the phone is wired to Line in jacks on Sonos. 

Does it?

Normalisation in the Spotify native app should work, so long as the audio is rendered by that app, whether output via the headphone jack or over AirPlay. (Casting to Sonos players is different.)
