I have a Beam under my TV screen and 2 “Ones” placed on the rear wall opposite the screen. The three speakers (and a Sub) are all connected as one “group”, so if I want the volume of the Ones to be higher, I have to increase the volume of the Beam. Can I increase the volume of just the Ones, and if so, how?

Not sure I understand fully, so I’ll give you two answers. 

If the speakers are set up as two ‘rooms’ in the Sonos software, and ‘grouped’, you should be able to go into the ’now playing’ area of the controller (or others, too!) and adjust the volume for each ‘room’ individually.

If they are set up as surround speakers with the Beam, and show up in one ‘room’, you’d need to adjust the surround settings. Assuming you’re using S2, you can click on the gear icon in the top right of the screen, then click on the room name of the Beam. Scroll down and click on ‘Surround Audio’ and use the sliders to adjust the volume of the surrounds for either streaming music playback, or for TV use playback.
