Hi, I have a first generation Arc a gen 3 sub and two Era 300s in my living room. The Era 300s are set up as surrounds but I regularly unbond them for music and don't think they sound great as surrounds.They seem just too quiet and I find I have to push all the levels up to max to get any real impact.For music they are way better just as a stereo pair.I don't think there is anything wrong with the speakers I just don't find the implementation to be great. It bothers me no end that Sonos won't let me enable the centre channel. in my room it would be better the centre than the far side channels.I also wish there was a music mode for the Eras so that they can be set to just those for music, unpairing is ok but it plays havoc with my room setup in the app and Alexa.I do love Sonos and have speakers in every room but am just disappointed with this setup. I kind of just lived with it until now but it appears other brands are making some interesting stuff

Recently i upgraded my soundbar form a cheap generic to a beam 2 to use with my existing Era 300’s as surrounds.Initial set up seemed to go ok enjoyed a week of decent sound from my TV.Yesterday, my TV suddenly reset and I lost sound. When it started to work again, SONOS defaulted to playing music form spotify rather then the TV output. The only way i can get TV as default is to remove the surrounds from the set up (making them a different system). I now have only the beam connected to the TV, this isn’t ideal as i brought this to work alongside the Era 300’s.Sorry if this is rambling.SystemAmazon Fire series 4 TVSKY QBeam 2Era 300(pair)

Every few weeks my Sonos move needs a factory reset for it to work. It’s very annoying having to wait to reset it every time I want to use it. It stays on the charger when I’m not using it

Can I turn off the voice enabled feature?

Can anyone show a single example of a Sonos working with a Samsung TV (eARC)?So disappointing these ‘premium’ products have basic compatibility issues...

Hello,I cannot get these speakers on the same network so that I can play the same music on both.

I’m trying to connect two Sonos One speakers that have been shelved for a couple of years. The app doesn’t find them. How do I reconnect?

BonjourJ’ai besoin de votre aide pour connecter mon vidéoprojecteur JMGO Ultimate 4K ayant un port HDMI eARC et la sonos Arc Ultra (qui possède aussi un port eARC). J’utilise un câble HDMI de bonne facture compatible 8K. Mais lorsque je branche les 2 appareils, l’image du vidéoprojecteur disparait pour faire place à des formes géométriques diverses et variées. C’est comme si le JMGO ne comprenait pas que son port ARC doit s’utiliser comme sortie et non pas comme entrée. Ca fait la même chose sur la 2° port HDMI du JMGO qui n’est pas ARC.Une idée pour faire fonctionner les 2 système correctement.PS: la connexion bluetooth fonctionne bien, mais j’aimerais passer par le HDMI ARC pour avoir les dolby atmos.Merci d’avance

Hi. Just bought the line in adaptor from Sonos and connected to my audio technica AT-LP3XBT. Sound playing straightaway but the sound is dropping in and out from the right speaker (the one not connected with line in).    Stereo pair set up and plays fine with Bluetooth from turntable.   Any idea what could be causing this please ?  thanks

Just left CenturyLink for Spectrum. This fixed the business related issues I was having with upload speed and video conferencing but wrecked my Sonos system’s functionality. I’ve had a perfectly working system supporting 10 different Sonos products throughout my house on CenturyLink for years, bragged about how amazing Sonos was, etc., but now, it’s all just a memory. About half of my Sonos products are constantly dropped from the app, nothing is reliable to the point I have just given up. That effortless quality is gone. I’ve talked with Spectrum support, tried their recommendations but to no avail. From research, seems like a mesh router, in particular eero 6+, may be the answer. Has anyone else had a similar experience and this was the fix?

Can I connect Sonos one to more recent Sonos speakers ?

Hi,I currently have the Sonos Arc Ultra, Sub Mini, and 2 x One.I’m planning to replace the 2 x One with 2 x Era 100.Is it enough to just remove the current surrounds and add the new ones in the app?Or is it better to re-pair the Arc + Sub + Era 100 from scratch? I’m wondering if anything from the previous sound profile might still be linked.Thanks!

Hi, I have a Sonos system that consists of IKEA Symfonisk lamp speakers (x5), Sonos One (x2), Play:3 (x2), and a Sub.I kept my system on version 16.1 (April 2024) until recently, about two months ago. During that time, I didn’t have any issues — everything was working flawlessly. At the end of January, I acquired two Sonos Roam 2 speakers, and in order to use them, I had to upgrade the system to the latest version. I also enabled auto-updates so that my system stays up to date. I use the Android app and the Sonos desktop app on Mac. For at least two weeks now (maybe even longer — I didn’t pay close attention at first), I’ve been experiencing major issues when playing music on the IKEA lamp speakers. Most of the time, I use a local music library hosted on my Synology NAS (same setup as in the past couple of years). I usually listen to playlists with around 250 tracks. I’ve observed that very

Hi all, I currently have a sonos arc (non ultra) paired with a sub gen 3 and two era 300 as surround. I also have a beam gen 2 and two ones in other rooms but my question is this…I want to turn off my 2.4g wifi signal and only use 5g and above on my router. My arc and sub gen 3 won't work on this band but the era 300 will.I am wondering if the setup will work if I hardwire the arc to a router (which the sub can join along with other older speakers via sonosnet) and also have the era 300 (and beam) connect via 5g?Will they still all work together and will the era 300s still work as rears to the arc, as the arc will he hardwired but the eras will be wifi 5g (I believe the eras will not use sonosnet as it is phased out on newer speakers)?I hope it am making sense. Any help is appreciated. P.s the reason I want 2.4g off is some other devices prioritise it but I need them to be on 5g for stable cloud gaming and they don't have manual selection.

Har köpt ett paket med utomhushögtalare och då ingick en AMP. Vad fyller AMP.en för funktion? Jag är inte så teknisk och trodde att jag bara skulle kunna sätta upp utomhushögtalarna och koppla upp dom i mitt befintliga SONOS system men det känns som om det är lite krångligare än så. Någon som vet hur man gör?  Moderator Note: Translation by Google Translate - I bought a package of outdoor speakers and it included an AMP. What does the AMP do? I'm not very technical and thought I could just set up the outdoor speakers and connect them to my existing SONOS system but it seems like it's a bit more complicated than that. Does anyone know how to do it?

I have an existing Port to several speakers, works as expected.  I attempted to add a Sonos Amp and a few speakers to play different music in different rooms.  However, when Amp is turned on, constantly makes a clicking noise (sounds like the audible text message typing).  It also constantly fluctuates the volume up and down, as wells as auto groups with my Port. I’m new to Sonos and this may not be doable. Please help.

For some unknown reason when I clicked on my fave ABC radio station this morning Sonos wouldn’t play it. It’s playing Spotify no problem. Help! 

I recently purchased and have been using a SONOS ERA100, and I have discovered a reproducible issue. I am not sure whether this problem is specific to my device, so I would like to inquire.Product:SONOS ERA100Issue:When using AirPlay from an iPhone running iOS 26.4.1 with the default Music app, if I add a song to the queue using “Play Next,” the next track starts from about 30 seconds into the song.This issue occurs consistently when “Play Next” is used while the currently playing track has about one minute remaining.For tracks that start midway, the playback position becomes inconsistent with what is shown on the iPhone screen. In other words, the screen appears as if the track is playing from the beginning.The same issue occurs on another iPhone in my household running iOS 26.4.1. However, an older iPod running iOS 15 plays without any problems.

Album art is working for my local NAS library when I'm selecting albums, and shows in the summary page when I'm playing a track.   But when I look at the queue there's no album art. That's not a big deal when just playing an Album but it's a pain when building a multi-album queue or playlist.  This works on the iOS app, and I thought it was working recently in Android. But not any more. Had something changed? I don't think anything has changed in my set up. I have re-added the music library, but that doesn't help.  

On this weeks iOS (April 26)  update the A-Z listing down the left hand side of the screen  for “Songs” has disappeared (from Local Library)It’s still there for Artists and Albums

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?

My old pixelbook had limited function on S1 app, but my new Chromebook doesn’t seem to support any of the SONOS S1 app options, and the webpage controller notifies I need a firmware upgrade (which I am afraid to do since 9 speakers are older S1 system models) Hoping to find a way to control my S1 Sonos system from my Asus Expert book (Chromebook Op Sys)

I’m looking for some advice on optimizing my Sonos Era 300 surrounds. My family room is 15’ wide with 9’ ceilings, and I’m sitting about 8–12’ away from an 82-inch TV. The area behind the couch is a large, open-concept space (kitchen/breakfast nook).Currently, my Era 300s are positioned to the sides near the walls and windows. I’m considering installing floor outlets under the couch to move the speakers directly behind the main seating area. Given the open space behind the sofa, would moving them closer to the listening position significantly improve the height and surround channels, or is the current side-wall placement better for this room's acousticsfamily room 

I have a Ray together with a sub connected to my Sonos system and it is also connected to my TV. On one of my devices the small circle does not show up so controlling volume is not possible, however on another device it works. Have tried to restart the app in the phone but did not help

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
