Okay Sonos, how do we get rid of that message....

Hello, Just wondering if anyone can give me some advice/feedback. I have a longish rectangular shaped room. At one end, I have two Play 1's mounted (stereo paired) with brackets in the corners (about 15 feet apart). Also in one of the corners, more or less directly below one of the Play1'a is my TV (note :to one side of the room, not in the middle of the room) I'm considering getting a Playbase and using the Play1's in conjunction with the Playbase as possessed to using them in a surround type set up. Firstly, do the Play 1's and Playbase compliment each other using them in this way? I realize I won't be getting any surround sound benefits, but I'm not that bothers. Secondly, does the Playbase like open spaces? I've read that in order to get the most from it, it kind of needs to be in smaller spaces so sound can reflect easliy. Thirdly, any suggestions on how minimize issues from the lopsided positioning of the Playone's compared to the Playbase? Thanks very much, any f

I have the standard 5.1 setup but would also like to use the Play 's + sub as a 2.1 music system. Can somebody please tell me how to do that?

Connecting optoma GT 5500 to Sonos as it doesn't have a optical out only 3.5mm jack,any help would be great.

HI, new Sonos owner here, just bought a PlayBar (for a 40:30:30 split use between streaming music, watching music and playing games respectively) and although I really like it, it does sound a little "hollow" (almost a bit muddy in the overall sound) particularly with some music (use Google Play Music). There is bass there but it just doesn't cut it for me. I have used Trueplay to tune the room, which did make an audible positive difference! Question is, how much difference will adding a Sub really make, particularly with music? I can see from posts that people love them for adding the depth to explosions and action in movies, but how about adding subtlety to music? As that's where I feel the playbar is slightly disappointing to me. Can't justify buying one right now, especially until I'm sure it's the right system for me, but for the coming months it'd be good to know what difference it really makes in this instance? Unless anyone has any 20% discount codes that work? &#x1f

Can PlayBar auto-switch audio sources? If I am listing to Spotify or music library content, and then turn on the TV, can PlayBar detect that and switch sources automatically? Or will I have to load the Sonos app to change it manually? I am hoping it's automatic, and am waiting for confirmation of this before ordering. Thanks.

Hello, I am currently considering buying a soundbar for my living room TV, so I am thinking of getting the Sonos PLAYBAR or PLAYBASE to add to my existing Songs setup. What are the key differences between the PLAYBAR and PLAYBASE? And which would people recommend as being the better of the two? Thanks

If I configure my Xbox One to use Dolby surround with my PlayBase, the audio isn’t quite synced with the video. I can’t get the sync quite right, even adjusting either the TV or the Sonos’ app TV Dialog settings. If I switch it over to Stereo audio, then audio sync is fine.

Hello. I want to buy wireless speakers that I can connect wirelessly to play audio from a smart TV. Can the Play:1 or the Sonos One do this without me needing to buy a soundbar also?

Hello, I noticed that my beautiful sonos subwoofer is not as shiny as it used to be, due to surface scratches. Nothing awful, but definitely noticeable. What kind of products could I use to remove them? Meguiars G17216 Ultimate Compound seems to have great reviews on amazon regarding surface scratches. Would it be safe to try it on the subwoofer? What have you guys tried?

When my playbar is sitting on top of the entertainment center and I use the TV volume control it works fine. When I rotate the playbar to mount it on the wall, the remote no longer works to adjust the volume. Thoughts?

Planning to buy a Playbase and sub this week. Already have the 2 Play 1's. While I've done a search and realize there's plenty of suggestions for HDMI switches, I was hoping someone could review my setup and confirm an HDMI switch that would work for me. I have a Samsung UN55D6050 TV from 2011. Unfortunately upon checking manual, it will not pass 5.1 from the HDMI inputs. The TV input will pass 5.1, however I don't use the built in Smart TV. I understand an HDMI switch can resolve this issue. I have 5 devices I use with my TV: 1) Cable Box (HDMI) 2) Blu-Ray Player (HDMI) 3) AppleTV (HDMI) 4) Roku (HDMI) 5) Wii (Component) I use a harmony remote to control all devices with one remote. If I purchase an HDMI switch that supports ARC I should be good right? Will the audio from the Wii get passed via ARC to HDMI switch and out the Playbase as well? Or will I need an HDMI switch that also has component inputs? And can someone recommend a few different options for these

Is Sonos planning to update the "look" and sound quality of the playbar?

We are remodeling our home & we are interested in mounting the Play 3 or Play 5 Sonos speakers in the ceiling or inside the walls. The front of the speaker would show through the ceiling or walls but would be flush with the wall or ceiling. We have the Power and Cat 6 in the ceiling & wall.

Can I connect a Sonos Playbase with my other sonos speakers just for music or do I have to have it connected to a tv to use it?

Hello all, is there any way to lock the Playbar into music mode?. When I am streaming my own music or internet radio and my lad is on his XboxOne sometimes when he changes games the Playbar switches back to TV mode on it's own?. Had a look around the app and can't see any auto-switching options?. Over the moon with the Playbar, bought it for tv and music and it's exceeded all expectations!.

Can I create surround sound set up with the playbase and two sonos one's but no sub woofer?

Hello to all, since with XBox one S I have the possibility to send a 5.1 uncompressed audio, is the playbar / playbase able to manage a 5.1 uncompressed audio file? Does the optical connection support this kind of signal? Thanks

Have a cramped room for surround sound set up.. Is it possible to use 1 mono speaker in rear instead of two paired stereo speakers in rear? Will sonos let me configure this way?? J

I have a pair of Sonos One's setup to play with my TV and they crackle a lot. Diag# 7948200

Is there a way to listen to music while I play a game on XBox? I'll start a song on Pandora through the Sonos app and as soon as I press a button on the XBox controller it switches audio back to XBox.

This is going to sound extremely dumb, but here goes....Is there any way to disable the volume controls on the Playbase itself? One of my cats has taken upon sitting on it while I watch TV. Just by sitting there, he is able to change the volume. It isn't that big of a deal, but if I fall asleep while watching TV, it can scare the pants off of me. And no, I wont get rid of the cat:D

Hi, I have the Sonos 5.1 system which I have set up with my LG 4k oled and I can choose DD or PCM On the TV setup menu. My first question is What is the difference with DD and PCM? Can they both do output true 5.1? With PCM will I get a different sound from each speaker if the source I am Using can pass through? I was watching a film the other night which was in 5.1 and put my tv setup to DD and every 30 mins or so it went silent for a split second then worked again, I think this is more regarding the TV than the Sonos. PCM gives me true 5.1 then I will change. Any help is much appreciated. Riddick

I successfully installed Playbase a couple months ago. It is still working as a speaker, but has disappeared from the app. HOw do I get it back?

Hello to all, I'm wondering to buy a playbar (truly still haven't decided yet between playbar and playbase). I have a B6V LG OLED TV with a central stand, not wall mounted, so my question are: 1) Should I choose a playbar or playbase - which sounds better, paired with the Sonos SUB? 2) If I will choose the Playbar, after trueplay, are there any big differences between installing it wall mount and tabletop? Question #2 is important because, in any case, I will NOT mount the playbar on wall. If I will chose the playbar, I thank to buy together with Flexson playbar stand in order to let the playbar became a base for my TV. Thanks in advance for your support.
