Fix & Optimize

Hi, I did setup the speakers to the new Arc and Sub 4 today but the sound do lag, then the sound disappears a bit and then back again within seconds the whole time.They are connected to 2,4 GHz 100/100 WiFi with full signal (sub also, only arc with cable), approx 5 meter from router.What did I do wrong?

Hello! I want to create this setup.  2 amps,  a pair of in-wall speakers, a pair of ceiling speakers, Apple TV, and a projector. What is the correct way to connect the amps to the Apple TV and to the projector. I’m trying to figure out what cables to have and exactly how to connect it all. Thanks!

I bought this at the store to plug into my tv...the guy that took this to my car for me said I need a receiver to make this work with tv...is that right?  Where do I get the receiver?

Ultra not recognizing bass and surrounds 

Since the rollout in May, I have consistently had problems switching radio stations using the phone app.About 80% of my listening is on about five radio stations. The rest Spotify, Sirius, etc. When changing from NPR to say, WXPN, it may take several minutes to get it to "catch" and make the switch. Thoughts?

Setting up surround with Arc and 2 Era 100s. Arc and first Era speaker were found, configured updated and added to the room. 2nd Era speaker hung up during the update step (error1000).spent 4 hours on the phone with support( yes…4 hours) still can’t add the brand new speaker… was supposed to be contacted by a more advance level 2 support tech but day 3 and nothing…suggestions?  Return for refund?  Thanks in advance…

I am trying to set up my new speaker, Beam gen2 and it will not connect to the internet. I get to the setup stage where it asks for the password to the network and then fails after typing in the password saying it is unable to connect. I have tried using a wired connection directly to the router and it gives the same error. I have a Netgear R6700AX router and have split the SSIDs into a 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. The device I am using to set up the speaker is also connected to the 2.4 network. I have tried connecting both with and without password security on the network. Have previously used a Sonos speaker with a wired connection (Play3) with no issues at my former apartment without issues but that speaker will not work in my house either. It is the same ISP but that has been the only change so I assume that is the issue. Talked with Sonos support for about an hour yesterday without any progress. Any suggestions or am I just stuck with a useless speaker? What to ask the ISP?

I am not able to connect to Sonos speakers from Spotify. This has worked fine for many years before. I have tested on IOS, Pixel Tablet and Samsung android. Tried to log in and out. AirPlay works fine. Other users work fine. Suggestions on what I should do?

I Had a Beam connected by HDMI cable playing sound of TV. I added a new equipment, a Move 2 and the TV is not playing in the Move2. Both are in the same group. Only by Spotify I did it.

Recently unplugged and replugged in my Sonos ARC and do not have sound.    Please help 

I think I know how to do this, but I am gun-shy with the app lately.  My confidence is low in getting things right that used to be easy for me.  I purchased two new Era 100’s.  I want to replace my two Play:1’s that are surrounds in my home theatre room with the Era 100’s and repurpose my Play:1’s in another room.  I think I go through the “Remove Surrounds” in my existing home theatre room, but not sure.  Is this correct?  If so, how do I create a new room and add my Play:1’s to that room?  I am also thinking I need to do this before plugging in my new Era 100’s so I can add them as new devices and identify them as surrounds in my existing home theatre room.  Is my thinkin correct here?  If so, anything I need to watch out for or know before I start this?  After the app rebuild a year of so ago I have gotten myself into trouble numerous times trying to do something I thought would be easy.    

Had to do a factory reset on my Move speaker yesterday and in the process discovered a software update that I applied to the speaker.  Since reconnecting to the speaker in the Sonos App, my wife and I cannot share control of the speaker, see played history, etc. from our separate Sonos accounts on our separate iPhone 16’s.  Since I set it up, I am registered as the “system owner” and my wife is prompted to log in as the system owner on her phone if she wants to view play history, or add her own Apple Music connection from her phone--so she can play her music.  All this shared play, using our own Sonos accounts worked yesterday, now it doesn’t.  I dug around through the app looking for a way to extend permissions or include another user as owner and didn’t have any luck.  What is going on with this thing?

I have currently a home cinema set-up with a Beam (Gen 2) and 2x ERA 100. I use it for TV sound and also to listen to music. As the room is quite large, I would like to add 1 ERA 100 speaker a bit further in the room, to enhance my music listening (not for use with the TV/Home cinema). So I would select the speaker (using a different room name as the home cinema speakers) only when I listen to music. Could that work ?

I went away for a few days.  On returning I opened the app. No "Sources" heading or list. Tried stopping and restarting the app a few times to no avail. The TV plays fine. Both sources are shown in the corresponding room details. App is Android. What is happening? 

Moin zusammen,aktuell gibt es im Black Friday 25% Rabatt auch auf die ERA300. Nachdem ich jetzt die Arc Ultra habe und als Surround Boxen noch die One nutze habe ich überlegt diese durch ERA300 zu ersetzen. Aufgrund meiner Raumgeometrie können die background Boxen allerdings nicht hinter den Sitzpositionen stehen und zum TV schauen. Mein Raum ist rel. lang gestreckt (9 m) und das Sofa befindet sich etwa in der Mitte, der TV hinten. Die Surround Boxen müssen also seitlich stehen und in den Raum rein ausgerichtet sein, auch weil man nicht immer Fernsehen schaut, sondern sich im Esszimmerbereich dieses Raumes aufhält und dort Musik hören will  Macht es unter diesen Umständen überhaupt Sinn die Era 300 zum Einsatz zu bringen? Im Forum gibt es schon einige Postings dazu, die allerdings doch relativ widersprüchliche Aussagen liefern von begeistert auch als Surround Speaker bis hin hinzu: Lass es und setze sie, als Stereopaar ein. Unschlüssig.  Moderator edit:Google Translate- Hello everyone,

HiIs it possible to use Play:1 exclusively via 5G on mobile phone or do I need to have wifi set up?

I recently upgraded to the new iPhone 16 and since then my Sonos system won’t work. The system can’t be found on the network or it will find some of the speakers, not all and then they all disappear. I did all of the troubleshooting- reboot router, delete & reinstall app, reboot speakers, factory reset on all speakers and then spent over 3 hours troubleshooting with Sonos tech support and still no resolve. Suggested I have internet provider split out internet but confirmed through router app that everything is on the same network. What am I supposed to do to resolve? Extremely frustrated.

Sonos playlist doesn’t show up to add music?

Dear All,I would like to connect my favourite mobile phone app for podcast with my Arc. Unfortunatley Arc does not support Bluetooth. Now my question.Could I add e.g. a Move 2 to my environment (Move 2 is capable for Bluetooth), so using Move 2 I can connect via Bluetooth and playing my podcast via Arc and Move 2?Does this work? BRStefan

I purchased some products from Dubai, and I want to use them. However, when I try to set them up in the app, I receive an error message saying, 'We couldn't link your Sonos Amp to your account.' What should I do? Please help

I see requests and non-committal responses regarding voice control for BBC sounds going back many months. Surely this is a central service for many users, in the UK at least. Is there any likelihood that Sonos will get round to supporting this in the foreseeable future?

I just purchased a Sonos Beam Gen 2. I did but it used and noticed it was already setup to another system so I performed a factory reset and tried setting it up with my Sonos app. I got to where it says "Your Beam has been added, but may not appear in your System. If so, unplug the power cord and plug it back in to finish setup from System Settings." I've followed the steps and cannot seem to get it to work or show up in my app. The Beam does have a solid white status light on. My wifi situation is not ideal as I am in a college dorm with shared WiFi. The network is private and does not require a username, just a password.  

Hi,I can’t find positioning anywhere with asymmetric room. Anyone knows best position? (arrows)
