Fix & Optimize

I currently have  a Gen2 amp running two Bose freespace 51’s for my backyard audio. I want to upgrade to the Gen3 amp and am considering replacing the Bose speakers with the Sonance Omni-6t 360 degree in ground speakers since the Bose speakers cannot handle the additional watts that the Gen3 amp pushes. Anyone running this setup? 

I have two move two speakers that I’m trying to connect simultaneously to my iPhone… But I can only get one at a time to connect

Spent hours with level 2 engineer who had escalated to level 3 engineers. They went through my router settings and changed everything but still could only connect 1 speaker to the system and then any other speaker would error out on setup and say no sonos devices found on mobile device network. The next morning I figured what the heck I will stop using the Nord Secure DNS servers. After making this change was able to setup all devices as normal.

I don’t have a space where ‘surround’ speakers are doable.  However what I’ve discovered is the amazingness of creating a wonderfully wide ‘front’ soundstage with Sonos speakers. My setup is - Arc (gen1) plus sub mini, plus two era 100’s, also in front but each about 5 feet on each side from the ARC.  I set the era 100’s as ‘full’ and tweaked the volumes of both them and the sub mini to better compete with the ARC.In the end, the front ‘soundstage’ is absolutely incredible. It’s really like having a band in front of you on a stage that’s a good 10 yards wide.  I know the ARC is supposed to create all sorts of great ‘surround’ audio, but you can’t beat physics, and adding the era 100’s as wider counterparts to the ARC creates something quite amazing IMO.Has anyone else experiemented with this kind of config?  I don’t see much mention of it anywhere, but holy hell, it’s quite amazing. :)

I have a sub 4 that’s paired with an arc ultra that keep losing connection.  The sub will connect and play with the arc ultra for a couple of minutes then drop the connection.  Sonos pointed fingers at my router, a Cisco RV340.  I engaged Cisco support and they cannot find any reason to sell me a new router, as suggested by Sonos.  Everything else in the house works fine on the same network.  Is anyone else having an issue with the sub 4 staying connected?  If so, what was the fix?  Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  

Samsung S23 cannot connect to Arc. Wifi router isn’t accessible and cannot be hardwired. Router requires connection to specific SSID and, of course, requires password. Have tried every suggestion I can find. Arc is flashing green. Have tried hardwire from phone to Arc with no luck establishing a connection. Am I doomed?

Just suddenly this week, my Mac Studio cannot connect to my Era300+mini-sub (Office Sonos). It’s worked for me the past three years, but now won’t connect with AirPlay.Through Apple Music, when I attempt to connect, I get the message:The AirPlay device “Office Sonos” cannot be selected for audio output. Please verify your network settings and AirPlay configuration or select another device.The Office Sonos speaker displays a greyed-out checkbox.Here’s what’s odd:1. I can connect through my Mac Apple Music to all of my other Sonos speakers.2. The Mac Sonos app works perfectly and connects to the Era300.3. The Mac Sound tool also cannot connect to it.4. Apple Music connects on both my iPhone 15 and iPad Pro.5. macOS is Sequoia 15.5 (24F74)What I’ve tried:1. Unplugged my router and restarted.2. Shut down my Mac and restarted.3. Unplugged both the Era300 and the min-sub.Other note: the Era300 is connected to Ethernet, but that has no effect when I use WiFi only.My question is, why can’t my

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 ?

Existing system is a Yamaha RX-A2A receiver with 5 speakers connected to a Sonos Port.  I want to add 2 Sonos speakers to the configuration. The 5 speakers will play surround sound and the 2 Sonos speakers will play stereo (I assume). Is it possible to add the 2 Sonos Era 100 speakers to this type of configuration. The room is a combined Living Room and Kitchen and the 2 Sonos speakers will be positioned in kitchen area to improve the volume of the sound. How can I add the Sonos speakers to the existing configuration?

Hi all,I recently changed my Wi-Fi router, and now my Sonos system won't connect to the new network. I've tried rebooting the speakers and using the Sonos app to reconnect them, but nothing works. The app keeps saying it can't find the system.Here's what I've done so far:Updated the Sonos app to the latest version I tried both the iOS and Android apps Powered off and restarted my speakers Attempted to connect via Ethernet (works temporarily, but I need them on Wi-Fi)Has anyone else run into this after switching routers? Are there any steps I might be missing to get them reconnected wirelessly?I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi I am having issues with my S1 app and my play 5 Gen 1. I have tried connecting the play 5 to the S2 app but it telling me that it is not compatible and when I now try to open the S1 app it move to the S2. Can I connect the play 5 to the new controller or how do I get the S1 app to work. Clearly there has been some upgrades that have put a spanner in the works?

I’ve accepted that I now have to reset my MacOS 17.0 desktop app twice/day (when i bring my laptop to work and then back home).  It’s annoying, but whatever.However, riddle me this - my Music folder shows up at work, yet, at home, I am “unable to add (913)”.Same laptop, same app.  Just different locations and different “systems”.

Hi,Advice from anyone positioning Era100’s as surrounds in the corner of the room please. Room is 188 x 124 inches, on one of the longer walls there is a 64 inch tv mounted on the wall in the exact centre with a Sonos Arc on a unit underneath (again in the exact centre).On the opposite wall is the couch (positioned against the wall) which is off centre due to a door, the left seat of the couch (which is the main listening position) is directly opposite the centre of the tv / Arc. I’ve got duel subs and enjoy the sound, but would like to add surrounds. For aesthetic reasons I’d prefer the Era 100’s over the 300’s, and to wall mount them in the corners of the same wall as the couch just above head height. I’ve been looking at the Flexson Wall Mount which enable me to fit into a corner, plus has a small degree of horizontal swivel so I can turn towards the listening position  I appreciate this will have an impact on the sound quality, but has anyone any experience of this positioning - is

Both of my moves willl not charge. Any suggestions 

What is the best way to manage double disks in my Music Library in Sonos?  I set the disk number to 1 and 2 in “Tag & Rename”, but this seems to be ignored by Sonos. I then set the track numbers to 101, 102, ...201, 202… but that did not work either in Sonos.  It seems that I have to include double CDs as two separate CDs, which is not ideal.  

I need to do some troubleshooting of a family member’s Sonos system I set up. This second system is in a different location. Can I change the iPhone Sonos app login to log in to this system (I have the username and password since I originally set up that system) without interfering with my own home system? 

I am dumping the Sonos products after they ruined it with the new app.  It never works correctly. Whoever made the new app should have been fired 

My config is a Sonos5 and Sonos One with a Technics SL23 (just completely rebuilt and certified) and a phono preamp.  The output from the 5 is very low and there is no audio from the One.  The room is configured correctly as using Pandora works just fine with music well balanced between the speakers.any help is appreciated 

Compré un era 100 y una arc ultra en usa; luego sume otro era 100 pero esta vez lo compré en Italia. El cual me entero una vez que estoy en Argentina que no es compatible con la barra arc ultra por ser de diferentes regiones. Llame a Sonos y me dicen que ellos no pueden hacer nada. A alguien se le ocurre algo? 

sonos Android app 80.23.9sonos OS 85-0-65270Android 14 Kernal 5.10.218 A minor but annoying problem with the Android App,  if you delete a playlist it will stay cached as an entry until you close and re-open the app.Thus if you want to delete a playlist and store a new one with the same name (as I was trying to do) then having deleted it when you go to add it as a new playlist the old one is still shown and it wont let you overwrite it.   You have to close and reopen the App to clear it. 

When is Sonos going to reinstate the battery life indicator for Move when in Bluetooth mode? Since the App update it’s disappeared. I thought it would have been done by now. 

I have been trying to setup my SONOS ONE SL with Alexa skills (yes I know it doesn’t have a microphone) but both my echo dot 1 and echo dot latest gen have mics so I can give commands from them. Problem is I have disabled and deleted the skill and try to re-enable but whatever I do it doesn’t work and Alexa doesn’t seem to be able to find the device although the Sonos app is working normally. 

Often when connected to my sonos era 100 via Bluetooth and trying to play media, the media app will say it is playing but the speaker makes no sound. Sometimes turning the speaker off and on again will fix the issue. The speaker is not muted, and the phone and speaker are connected to the same wifi network. I can get the speaker to play a chime in the sonos app, so I don't believe it is a connection issue. This happens often enough that it's a real hassle. Anyone had this problem and successfully fixed it?

My Sonos app for Windows on my PC has stopped working. It says ‘We found Sonos on your system’ but then can’t find any products. Speakers all working fine from iphones. It’s just the PC app that isn’t. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the new version - no change….Any ideas please?

Hi, allCan I use two Era 100s as front left and right speakers together with a Beam, Sub Mini and two Play 1, to enrich the front soundstage in a 5.1 setup?Thanks.
