Fix & Optimize

Just curious to hear if folks here use Trueplay or turn it off?Every situation is different for every room, every person’s ears. But for me, I’ve come to turn Trueplay off as it seems be hindrance to sound quality than tuning and keeping it. Night and day difference. I might change mind later. But sounds more detailed and full with no Trueplay for me.Anyone else find the sound much better with or without Trueplay? 

Hi, I am unable to paid samsung solar remote to my Sonos playbar. I already went to settings on TV and added the remote as universal remote with the Sonos system. But still I cannot control the volume. It seems remote is working on bkuetooth mode and not IR mode. Not sure how to switch to IR mode. Please help. Kind Regards

Hello everyone,I received a new Arc Ultra yesterday, and after setting it up, I hear a crackling sound in the high frequencies, particularly with piano music but also with some voices in movies. It's not just necessarily harsh (which might be down to my interpretation) but there's also a kind of crackle mixed in, instead of the tones being pure.Is this a known issue? I can't find anything about it on this forum and I'd like to do some troubleshooting before I call Sonos directly.Cheers!

I have a Sonos Beam 2 which I want to connect to a Samsung Frame TV which uses a separate control box for all connections. This control box is 15.meters from the TV and Sonos. We have tried to connect the Sonos to the control box across CAT5E/CAT6 cabling with an HDMI extender at each end to enable the HDMI inputs into the Sonos and Samsung control box. The problem is the Sonos is now flashing white and orange and sound volume is limited to level 15. Can anyone suggest a way to resolve this problem?

Hi,I have a Sonos Ray and Samsung UE32F6000F, without optical port and have purchased the Sonos HDMI to Optical adapter.I have switched the “eArc” setting on in the menu and connected the HDMI port to the one labelled eArc on the back of the TV.I am unable to get the two to connect using the Sonos app and nor does the TV recognise a speaker has been connected.I have noticed the optical cable end does not glow red when connected to any device (the TV, a laptop etc). I have also tried 3 other HDMI cables.Any ideas/tips?Thanks

I recently bought a Ray to replace the dying iPod my husband had plugged into a Bose dock.  I was told he could stream music ripped from CDs that had been loaded onto his cell phone but apparently that’s only the case for an apple phone.  We are an android family.  I simply want to access the 28 GB music library we have loaded on our computer in the living room on our ray.  I don’t want to keep the computer on. I I don’t know that I necessarily want an NAS as I don’t want other files loaded.  Just our music.  I’ve read about the various NAS drives and am this close to buying a Synology 2-Bay DiskStation DS223j (Diskless) but I know somewhere in my research I read that an external drive plugged into our router (which does allow for the indexing needed) might be easier/less overkill for a music library of our size?  Can someone point me in the direction on making this decision?  

When I select Everywhere in the app to have all speakers connect.  The Arc does not connect while One and OneSL do  !??!

How do I know when my roam 2 is fully charged?

Message on home screen favourites tab, “ unable to load content “ very frustrating, help request 

I have to sign in to add products but it isn’t allowing me to sign in.“Unable to sign in. Connect to the internet and try again”I’ve restarted the app, and my phone. Delete and reinstalled the app.I’ve factory reset all the speakers now I can’t add any

For years been looking up answers why my SL one left surround sound keeps disconnecting. Did all the troubling shooting, unplug, reset, move the speakers closer, get a WiFi boosters. I may figured out a partial solution. I haven’t added the Apple Music account and haven’t lost the speaker since. So reboot the system and don’t add the Apple Music. 

Hi, I bought the pro ject carbon vinyl player thinking it would connect straight up to my beam. I have 2 One SL as surrounds and a sub mini. I bought the beam circa 2021. Do I need to buy something to connect the record player to the Sonos system? thsnks in advance  

I received my Certified Refurbished Beam (Gen 2) on Friday, unpacked it, and from the first launch the speaker keeps disconnecting once in a while and the flashing white light appears. The speaker dissapears from the app, and the sound that was playing lags and stutters until it connects again. I have tried various troubleshooting steps, from configuring the router and separating 2.4GHz and 5GHz, to factory resetting the Beam, to trying to configure it on a different device. I've been on the support chats two times, today in a different country than mine since the chat for my country is not available today, and at the end of it after trying more fixes (including ethernet to router connection which also kept disconnecting once in a while), I've been referred to contact the phone line with the case number they gave me for further help, since they have more tools at their disposal than the chat. After the chat I realized that in my country there's no cell phone number for Sonos so I can't

Just awful.  Can't wait to stop using it. Pos

Roam won't charge and nothing happens after I hold the power button down for 20+ seconds.  But when plugged in, the red light is on. The battery is not chaging when plugged in. What do I do?

 “My Sonos Move suddenly shuts off. I can’t turn it back on, as if the battery were dead. When I put it back on its charging base, it turns on again and the battery shows 100%.”

Hi I was recently conned buying what I thought was a new Sonos soundbar on marketplace .. it looked like the box was unopened however a month later I opened it to find it doesn’t work .. it won’t power up . I know without looking it’s hard to tell if it’s worth trying to fix .. I’ve already lost $350 so don’t want to get hit up for that again . Should I just accept defeat ? Is it worth anything to anyone ? 

I have been with sonos from the inception, I loved and recommend it to countless people. I have a huge setup with mixed generations. But I'm having the worst sonos experience for the last 5 months on my android phone (Samsung Galaxy ultra s25). Hoping the issues will be fixed but I'm losing hope. The basic s*** like I can't find devices in the app, it keep asking to register the new device, searching for devices every time I open the app... Driving me nuts, the whole concept of sonos to me is quality of music at the touch of a button. It's been a nightmare, is anyone else having these issues?I'm ready to give up at this point! Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct

How do I connect a Sonos 3 speaker to a Brennan B2?

My TV sound (through a DAC converter) shows in my Sonos system as a source (Line-in), and when pressed it does show a signal (signal symbol fluctuates), but no sound comes. This has worked in the past but has stopped working some time ago. I have tried a lot (swap optical cable, power resets, adjust settings in app) but nothing works. When removed the Line-In source disappears so it is evident that it is correctly connected. Any tips??

Hi all. Recently my Move 2 takes about 90 secs for trueplay to kick in and it seems to be drastically altering the sound everytime it kicks in subsequently after this. I know it has active trueplay however the speaker is in the same location and will go significantly louder everytime it trueplays. Anyone else having this issue? It never used to do it and was perfect before.I have not done a factory reset as yet ThanksAdey

Hi, I have Gen 2, sub mini and 2 era 100s. all working perfectly. I have in principle from ‘she’ permission to have ceiling speakers but I’ve read that I cannot add ceiling speakers to my system. is this correct? 

We have had Sonos speakers for several years, but we keep losing connectivity and have to reset everything. We have a Google mesh system throughout the house, so WiFi is not the issue. We are ready to throw it all out, it’s a horrible experience. How do we fix this?
