Headphones

Even when using line-in, there is a noticeable audio delay. It prevents them being used with electronic drums, or for any sort of music production/gaming application. Is there a way around this? Are there plans on the Sonos side to improve this? I understand that Bluetooth will always have some level of delay, but line-in should be instant. Sony’s WH-1000XM headphones do not suffer this issue.

How will usb headphones play music files stored on my android phone if sonos will not access sd file location?

 I cannot get my Sonos Ace using the USB-C to 3.5mm cable. there is no audio .Using Bluetooth Works Using USB-C to USB-C cable works Anybody have any suggestions on how to solve this?

Hi everyone,Got my Ace headphones last week and really like them.A big issue I’m having is with the microphone, specifically with Slack (I don’t seem to have this issue with teams, google meets, phone calls, etc.).During slack calls, within a few minutes the Ace microphone seems to stop picking up audio. I’ve had several calls now where other people in the call suddenly stop being able to hear me. If I disconnect and reconnect to the call, that will usually buy me another few minutes before it happens all over again.I’ve checked all of my macbook audio/slack audio settings, and everything is how it should be.Wondering if anyone else has experienced this and/or found a way to fix it.

I can't connect the ace headphones to the Sonos app on android (pixels 7) Any tips?

Two negative points : - The leather like material is too warm wearing … really not so pleasant wearing it - Two Sonos Ace can not listen together to a movie, I suggest for next buyer to wait this is  just a no go until this feature exists Otherwise  it is fun using it and a nice add on to Sonos movie bar … the idea is great the conception not yet, the high-end look and fealing is enjoyable except theis annoying warm ear sensation when using it 

Is anyone else having issues with no sound coming from one side of their headphones. I have only had these for less then 3 weeks and I have tried everything and I cannot get sound to play out of the right side of the headphones.

Today I bought a pair of Sonos Ace headphones. The sound quality and noise-canceling are great. And they are also quite comfortable to wear. But every time I change the volume or reconnect to a different audio source, my eardrums get blown out by one of these indicator sounds!Is there a way to disable those, or at least make them a lot more quiet?I use these headphones on my Windows 10 Laptop over Bluetooth and 3.5 mm TRS. For USB-C I’m currently missing the adapter.Thanks in advance

Hi,with ACE IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE DOLBY ATMOS SPATIAL SOUND FROM PS5 ? only using arc connected to PS5 and swap output to ace right ?Thanks Paolo

Can more than 1 ACE be connected to ARC at the same time ?

I have a number of sonos devices, 4 subs, an arc, a beam, 6 ones and a roam as well as ace headphones. Whenever I add the headphones to the sonos app it works to start with but once I've closed the app it will force close once I try and reopen it. I have to clear the apps storage and then discover my system and login making sure the headphones are not turned on. This then enables me to use the other devices and I can still use the headphones as long as I don't open the app when they are turned on. I've reset the headphone numerous times etc but no matter what I try the same problem occurs. This is on Android and using the latest app that was released a couple of days ago but has also been the case on the previous versions too. Has anyone had this problem and if so is there a fix for it?

When I wear my headphones, the audio becomes distorted, and when I remove them, the sound returns to normal. Does anyone know the reason behind this issue? I have the equalization settings set to default.

Hi Sonos community,I'm a big fan of the Sonos Ace headphones, and I use them almost every day. However I was frustrated to discover that they aren't compatible with the "Find My Device" feature on Android.I think it would be a fantastic addition to the Sonos Ace headphones if they could be integrated with the "Find My Device" network. This would make it much easier to locate them if they are ever misplaced or stolen.I know that some other headphone brands, like Sony and JBL, are already planning to make their headphones compatible with this feature, and I hope that Sonos will consider doing the same for the Ace.I believe this would be a valuable feature for many Sonos Ace users and would further enhance the overall user experience.Thanks for considering my request!

Hi I bought the headphones in the UAE and not only is the volume too low (especially on an airplane) but the case is truly awful and a dust trap. Are Sonos replacing the cases with something more sleek and durable? 

Does Sonos have the idea to release earbuds ?

After a few weeks of dealing with audio delay reaching upwards of 500ms, two nights ago my Sonos Ace suddenly decided they weren’t going to swap audio from the Ray soundbar any longer.I’ve tried power cycle, disconnect swap, reconnect swap, and factory reset.This is the most disappointing product I’ve ever purchased at this price point. These are supposed to be premium headphones and they can barely function.I will be seeking a refund for these headphones and will have to choose something else. This is incredibly disappointing. I have enjoyed Sonos speakers for many years. I can’t believe how poorly these perform under their intended use cases.

Aloha to everyone, Short version: I'm still very happy with the Sonos Ace. Sound is good to very good, very comfortable, finally physical buttons again, for me as a “children in the house” person with a small apartment, the TV Swap feature is a revelation (for movies/series and - in reviews never mentioned - gaming). Killer feature! BUT: in TV Swap I keep experiencing slight mini dropouts in the sound or distortions (it feels like every 30-60 seconds). Can anyone confirm this? Could these be hardware problems, or will they be eliminated via updates? 

I would love to see this feature and it would be what would make me buy a pair of Sonos Aces to replace my current headphones. Use case: I work from home in the same room with my significant other (SO). We both listen to music on our Sonos speakers all day while working. However, at some point my SO starts taking calls for a while. During this time, she still wants the music playing in the room, but I need to have headphones on to block out the sound of the phone calls. So I put on my headphones, pair to Bluetooth, and have to open a second music streaming service to play music in my headphones while leaving the Sonos system playing music for her. This is annoying on a day to day basis. I would LOVE to be able to just slip on the Aces and pick right up with listening to the same music in the room and not have to get on my phone and start up a second service, etc. Honestly, this is the only use case I can imagine getting the Aces for given I have my Sony MX4s. 

Is there a difference in audio quality between the beam and arc using audio swap with sonos ace

My Airpods Max can pause and resume video content I’m watching when I press the digital crown or take them off.I expected this to work with the Sonos Ace using TV audio swap as well, but it doesn’t. As far as I know, HDMI-CEC supports play / pause operations, so the headphones could tell the soundbar to tell the TV to play / pause.Is this feature infeasible for some reason, or is this something that could be supported in the future?

My Sonos ace are giving me problems with cracking static sounding noises not only at high volume but low volume but when I open up the Sonos app it like it stops completely just wondering if i should trade my pair In

Does the Sonos Ace support Dolby Atmos and spatial audio when using the TV audio swap through Beam gen 1?

J'ai réussi à coupler ma barre arc et mon casque ace pour ecouter la tv. Mais comment faire pour écouter de la musique via sonos?

Hello fellow Sonos Ace owners,I have had Ace headphones for a few days now and after a history with devices such as Bose Quietcomfort Ultra, Sennheiser Momentum 4 or Sony WH-1000XM5, I find Ace to be the most comfortable in everyday use. Unfortunately, when wearing them, a certain problem occurs that did not manifest itself in the case of other headphones. Namely, when I turn my head relatively dynamically to the right, the sound of the song being played disappears for a fraction of a second. It happens the same way when I press the center of the right or left earphone with my index finger in such a way that the ear pads are bent. The sound also disappears for a short moment. Are you able to reproduce such behavior on your devices or is it perhaps a defect of my copy, or is it perhaps normal behavior that I have not encountered in the case of other headphones? I've read about the pressure equalization system in the earpiece that Sonos has implemented, but is that how it's supposed to w

I’m returning g my Ace’s because of my increasing disappointment with Sonos, due to their lack a care for the customers and serious fall in quality. Now since the last update the hard reset in the ace no longer works. I’ve done the process multiple times as I let other Sonos users test them. Now, nothing. The light just stays orange. I guess this is just par for the course. The consensus from myself and those that tested them is “meh”. Muddy veiled sound, gimmicks that don’t justify the price, no amp support for tv swap, underwhelming and seemingly directional noise cancellation… seemingly good build quality.  I used to be a huge Sonos fan boy. RIP Sonos.
