Home theater

Hey need some help, my Sonos system won’t register to app, I have a bear gen 1 and sub gen 3. I have update wifi, tried resetting system, factory reset. Still I can’t connect to my exciting system 

I can’t get my sub to hold the setting I set it to. Each time it defaults to zero for cross over. And regardless of what I set. It does not sound any better.  I have unplugged and powered my amp up. I have done the same to my sub.  I have run true play again. All the equipment is up to date and has most recent updates   

my sonos arc keeps having problems with stuttering audio, it’s cutting out at random times,this is really annoying, everytime I'm watching a program at random points, you can hear the audio cutting out for like half a second, I have an LG tv, and the soundbar has been connected through HDMI,i also have a optical audio output/input but i was told that for me to benefit from Dolby Atmos I should keep my Sonos Arc connected through HDMI instead of optical. thank you in advance for your reply.

I have a Samsung sound bar and subwoofer Bluetooth… I was hoping to pair a couple era 100’s to broaden my Samsung surround system for a large family room. Can they be paired to the Samsung soundbar which is paired via Bluetooth to the Samsung tv?

I have upgraded my broadband with a new router provided by Vodafone. I had to reconnect my Sonos system to the new configuration/wifi name. Majority of Sonos connected without any issues, mini sub and two play ones used as surrounds are proving to be as stubborn as it’s possible to be. The play ones can be added as normal to the surround option and then after 15 seconds become disconnected and have to be factory reset in order get them to connect to the system again. Same with the Sub only it says it’s been “added to my system but might not show up, if so unplug and plug in and continue in settings” needless to say this does nothing, it doesn’t show and is not connected. The sub will connect only if I connect direct to the router with a cable but as soon as the cable is removed the sub disconnects. I’m going round and round in circles and getting absolutely nowhere. The sound bar for my set up is a Sonos beam which is working fine.I have factory reset everything a

Can the Sonos amp be controlled by Bluetooth or WiFi without using the Sonos amp for anyone to control and connect through blue tooth 

Hi guys, I probably felt into trap I totally do not expect. I decided to go full Sonos, so spent like 4k on the speakers and accessories, but had no idea, that even these days, someone will build the device with one input.So - do you have any experience with automated HDMI splitter? Or at least some remote / home assistant integradable? My setup is:One side of room: Panasonic UB9000 Apple TV PS5 Sonos Arc Ultra15m HDMI cables running inside the walls into ceiling mounted projector JVC DLA-NZ7Until now I was using like 15 years old 2+1 system with many inputs, so I was able to sent video into projector and audio into amp. Was would be your suggestion, to keep get the max from the Arc? 

I have Play1 and Playbar in my livingroom, the speakers are not Bluetooth. When I start up my working pc from my job, the are 4 high sound in the speakers. I dont have any Sonos on the computer because It's a work computer, and the noise comes even before the computer itself has started up, it comes as soon as I turn it on. It could also be some smart home thing messing around, but I've tried everything.

I just upgraded my TV to a new Samsung and wanted to connect my older Playbar.  New TV does not have optical audio, so I needed an E-ARC > Optical extractor to convert the TV audio to a signal the Playbar can read.  I searched for info but was unable to find much. Any links to converters were UK Amazon links and unavailable US. I’m posting this in hopes that anyone else can save the headaches I encountered.   If you are looking to do the same thing, this is the only converter that seems to function with Sonos: amazon.com/dp/B0FKBB22SP?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

I’ve put the questions I’m looking for answers on in bold.Hello,I’ve been using the Sonos Amp with a couple of satellite Sonos Ones for years, primarily for the purpose of playing vinyl. Additionally, I’ve historically had a Roku/TCL television hooked up to my Sonos Amp via HDMI ARC. Easy peasy. However, recently bought a house with this amazing room for all of my vinyl. I decided t

Hi All, ​"I upgraded from the Sonos Beam 2 to the Sonos Arc Ultra. I noticed that the sound coming directly from the soundbar is flat. When paired with the subwoofer, the bass is actually worse than it was with the Beam 2. It seems like the crossover is poorly calibrated out of the box. There is too big of a gap between the soundbar and the sub. With the Beam, everything was much more balanced. For such an expensive setup, the sound quality is not satisfactory. Perhaps Sonos should update the firmware."

sonos beam disconnecting surround play1 speakers and sub from my wifireset and re-adding 2x play1 and sub to my accounts via S2 app works as a stereo-pair with sub. adding these speakers to my beam as a surround speaker and sub worked but now the play1 and sub units disconnect from my networkso others here have had the question which goes unanswered; so it might be a transient outage?was working and though I think there haven’t been changes to my network, it seems that now the speakers are disconnecting from the network….

Greetings i recently bought 2 era 300 to place them as surrounds, replacing my old one Sl's. The room is wide but there is an obstacle a pillar in left side of the room. I tried to draw the room. is placing the era behind the pillar on the marked yellow spot will reduce it's effect.And changing angel of it will help or it is a complete dead spot.any other options of mounting on wall that can help ?Thank you

Hello everyone, I’ve recently set up a new Sonos home theater system and I’m experiencing some issues that I’m hoping to get help with. My setup:Sonos Beam (Gen 2) connected to a Samsung OLED S95C via HDMI eARC Beam is also connected to the router via Ethernet (CAT 8) where my Download speed is 115mbps & Upload is 23mbps 2 × Sonos Era 100 configured as surround speakers Sonos Sub Mini Additional 2 × Era 100 configured as a stereo pair placed to the left and right of the soundbarIssues I’m facing:I’m experiencing intermittent audio dropouts, mainly from the soundbar (Beam), where the sound cuts out for about half a second. The issue occurs only with TV audio (apps, TV channels, and console connected to the TV). When playing music directly from the Sonos app, everything works perfectly with no dropouts. The issue becomes more noticeable when watching Dolb

I am streaming with a hardwired (1Gb/s) Nvidia Shield Pro passthrough to a TCL 65QM851G TV. My new Sonos Arc Ultra is plugged into the eARC port of the TV and the TV is set to passthrough to the Arc Ultra. I also have a pair of ERA100’s for surrounds. The Sonos gear is connected to a 5G wifi network. The system plays/streams PCM stereo content with no issue but when I stream any type of Dolby content (Dolby Atmos or Dolby Plus 5.1) it plays awesome for about 5 minutes then the sound starts to drop out very briefly about every 1-2 seconds. If I pause the stream for a couple seconds and restart it, the cycle repeats, 5 minutes of awesome sound then the dropouts restart. What can I do to rectify this issue?

Hi everyone. Just a quick question. I watch streaming channels Netflix, Disney, etc through a 4k Apple tv connected to my Sonos system, arc, 2 era 300's, sub mini. When I am not listening to Dolby Atmos it normally shows on the sonos app as pcm multichannel 5.1, I have found setting  it to Dolby digital 5.1 on the Apple box sounds louder & clearer but they recommend the other. Would be very interested in your thoughts & help. Many thanks.

A while ago I created this post: This is still a problem. For several games, if not all games, the volume is not how it should be. In the game Metaphor, dialoge form the sides are much louder than from the center. In other games, certain sounds seem too loud. These problems are especially bad when using Dolby Atmos on PS5, but also a problem in Linear PCM, in some cases just as bad like with the Metaphor example. I have tried several combinations without luck. This is not an issue with the TV or PS5 because this is not an issue with the TV audio. I am using passthrough on the TV and device type soundbar on PS5, but tested multiple combinations. Do I have a faulty Arc Ultra? I’m only using the Arc Ultra with my LG C4 TV, no sub or other speakers. I find it odd I can’t find anyone else reporting this. Edit: I think the

I like that the dialog is very easy to hear without having to turn on any dialog adjustments. The problem is I barely hear the left and right channel audio. Background music is barely audible. I’ve tried it with both Trueplay turned on and off and there isn’t much improvement. I know the left/right channels are working because I hear music. Anyone else have this problem?

Apple has released a beta for Apple TV (tvOS 26.4)In this update: "It appears that Apple added this new setting (Continuous Audio Connection), in part, to address complaints from Apple TV users who use Sonos speakers paired with AV receivers. Some users have indicated they hear popping noises or awkwardly low volume levels on certain channels, specifically with 5.1-channel content."When I open my SONOS App it now shows that EVERYTHING I play from ATV is in Dolby Atmos, these are TV programs that I am 100% sure are not played in Atmos.It says: “Apple TV uses a Dolby MAT connection for glitch-free playback across formats. Older receivers may indicate an Atmos connection, but original mixes will not be modified.” I know it's a beta but it will be interesting to follow and see if they fix the bug.The article can be read here: 

Watched an old Marx Brothers movie DVD last night.  The DVD box stated it was Dolby Digital 1.0.  So I expected that to get sound out of my Beam Gen 1 I would have to change the sound output from my Bluray player from Bitstream to PCM.  But it worked on Bitstream!  The Sonos App was showing the sound as Doby Digital 1.0I had reported this as a problem with support, as had other people.  Now it appears to have been quietly fixed.  Don’t know when but must be fairly recently. Previously reported here 

I’m installing a brand new entertainment center that will be very nice with stone and white oak.  I do NOT want a sound-bar mounted on the stone below the TV.  Therefore, I’m looking at in-ceiling speakers.  This is for a 5.1 setup (which I believe means I need two Sonos amps).  Everything I have read is that a center channel speaker in the ceiling isn’t ideal.  However, my guess is that most of those opinions are from serious audiophiles.  For a family room setup is it really that big of a deal?  If not, which speaker should I use for the center channel?
