Pressing the Power/Bluetooth button on the rear of my woke Sonos Roam will put the unit to sleep and play a quick tone.Pressing the same button when the unit is sleeping will cause it to wake and activate the status light.However, i do not hear a tone or other sound when the unit wakes. Can such a sound be enabled?(The lit status light is insufficient since my Sonos is protected by a rubber armour sleeve which obscures the status light.)TIA!
Which locations would work well for placing 2 Era300s for Home Theater/Atmos purposes given my living room layout? I’ve noted to two primary locations we occupy for watching movies. I have power at A, B and C.

I have 14 products in my Sonos System. i recently changed my broadband provider and this has played havoc with the system. I want to run th system off the S1 controlllerduecto having a ConnectAmp that is incompatible with the S2 controller. I had to downdrade 4 products which was donecsuccessfully with the help from support. However I have 5 products that show a spanner symbol with dot and “not registered”. When I try to register them with “link to my account” all shoe a set up error and suggest checking the internet connection. which is fine. Can anyone help me fix this?
So I recently moved to an apartment that has a built in wifi in the units (whitesky communications). I can’t connect any of my speakers on the app. It was suggested that I get a second router? I’ve tried the TP decos w2400 but that didn’t work. Anyone know any specific routers that might work/help me out 😩😩😩😩😩.
My tv audio is not playing while directly wired to my sonos connect. The sonos plays in all speakers in the rest of the house (not the audio from that tv though). I have wired speakers in the ceiling, wired sonos speakers, and moves connected all over the property. This happened after changing internet provider.
Sonos Play:5 (Gen 1 ) stopping randomly for 5-10 sec when playing Spotify but works fine with Tidal. I have done everything Sonos support suggested. Sonos support said that it is a internal memory problem (to small memory for high-res streams). But Spotify is far from high-res and Tidal works fine.
Have a plantet rock subscription and use the radio app. All stations seem to cut out and then restart. It doesn’t happen on Tunein radio. I have just connected my atmos with an ethernet cable to the router, which is only 4m away as I thought it might be a wi fi issue. But its still the same.
Not sure what's the deal here. I have dolby Atmos for home theater enabled. If I select any other settings, no issue.
I am hoping that I can send signal to my Playbar, which not configured to a TV or any other device. That is, I want you use the Playbar as my speakers for my Mac Mini (mid 2023, M2 chip) running Sonoma 14.2.1 I have succeeded in using SONOS 2 app in my iPhone to stream audio content using my WiFi. I have connected the Playbar to the computer both by USB-C to optical, and HDMI to optical, but my computer is not finding the soundbar as an output device in System Settings > Sound.
Because the turntable is sensible to vibrations while is connected to a Receiver, and I already have a Sonos audio system (Sonos Arc+Subwoofer; Sonos Beam), I bought Sonos port to connect Phono with preamp to Sonos wifi network at home away the big speakers of Denon AV receiver. The Sonos system works Ok, but connecting Port (out) to analog connection “not-phono” of receiver doesn’t sound OK. (For example: Media IN RCA). HOW should config Sonos Port to get out correct IN sound of receiver?
I saw a number of other couch against the wall posts but they were too specific to others situations, so here’s mine. I have a movie room with the Arc, Sub and 2 One SLs. Our couch is against the rear wall and can’t be moved forward. I’m considering upgrading the One SLs with two Era 300s for atmos surround. Our ceilings are low (about 8’) and the Arc sits on a media console pulled to the front edge. The couch does have a healthy width back and arm rests so we do get pushed forward a bit but not enough to have the speakers actually behind us. i have the One SLs mounted ear height over each arm rest and angled towards the center of the couch/slightly down and they sound good. They’re mounted to the drywall with the Midlite mounts with in wall hidden cable system. Would you recommend mounting the Era 300s with wall mounts near the same place but just have them square and level to the front of the room? One issue is they need to be stud mounted, so the right speaker (right when lookin
I would like to understand the difference between plugging my Sonos port into the RCA inputs on the Onkyo and playing music and using the “Works with Sonos” setup in the Onkyo menu. The only difference I see when “works with Sonos” is enabled is that it messes around with my ability to control the volume on my Onkyo for ALL inputs. I don’t understand the point and would love to be enlightened!!

I have a Sonos amp that I am enjoying with my hifi speakers But I’m some what disappointed with the lack of multi inputs. I really want to connect cd, tape & phono. Its been eating at me I just want to have it all there so I can use the other sonos speakers I get the urge to play vintage. Could I use a multi input pre amp to the Sonos Amp?
Hi. I am thinking or buying a pair of Ere 300s. I want to use them for streaming music in stereo and I have two questions. I want to position them either side of a chimney breast. Will it be a problem to have the speakers at different heights (other than the aesthetics)? my TV is in the corner so I am probably going to have to limit the TV sound to one speaker as the stereo will be in the wrong place if I use both. I am thinking of wiring the speaker to the TV. Will the speakers be able to work out intuitively whether they are receiving sound from the TV through a wire and send out of one speaker and when they are receiving music wirelessly from my phone and send it to both?Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
Hi all,Currently looking for some help with this!I have a Project Debut Pro Turntable and am trying to connect an Arcam A25 Amplifier to the system, as I am looking to have an exclusive hifi system for the turntable in the future.I am looking for advice to ensure that I have set this up correctly.So currently I have the turntable connected to a Pro-Ject Phono Box S2 Phono Pre Amp (MM/MC), which is then connected to the Sonos port to allow it to play through my Sonos system. The port is hard wired into my Sonos Beam so I am able to listen to vinyl.So with regards to connecting the amplifier into the system, am I right in thinking that the phono pre amp would be connected into the Port on in and the Arcam amplifier would be connected to out? The Arcam amp does have a phono connection but I have been advised that the phono box is the better route to use rather then the arcam.I am hoping that this makes sense and am looking for your help. RegardsAlex
Purchased the turntable bundle from Sonos and this morning the pro-ject turntable started spinning backwards after making a vibrating noise. Operated fine before. Tried to unplugged and restart but turntable continues to spin in wrong direction. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Options to fix?
Ok apologies if this has been asked before - I did look. i have 6 amps in an upstairs closet all feeding in- ceiling speakers. It’s neater keeping them together but they are not close to the router so none can be wired via Ethernet. over time I’m getting more and more dropouts. I dropped the Boost as the property is small and should be more than covered by WiFi, and it wasn’t helping. All IP addresses are bound on the router and I have tried all available wifi channels. I am theorising that there is a lot of wifi noise in the closet. Would daisy-chaining them with Ethernet, and turning off the wifi on all bar one reduce the noise and improve reliability? In my head this should work but I’m wondering if anyone has tried this? thanksandrew
Sonos recently started playing an ad for Alexa EVERY TIME I TURN IT ON!!! This is infuriating!!! I find this intolerable. I hate Alexa and don’t want to be interrupted every time I use my system. I did not sign up for Ads when I bought my system. WTF!!! Knock it off. to be clear these are NOT radio ads.
