Home theater

Hi allI’m having issues connecting my remote to the Sonos Ray. Setup:TV : Medion (https://aldi.medion.com/md31196/be_nl/?refPage=aldi)Ray is connected via Optical cable, but works fineTV setting are set to activate CECRemote : When holding my hand in front of the remote it does not work (on my tv etc) as such it should be an IR remote. What’s happening:When I go through the setup procedure and I click the plus button on my remote the light blinks on the Sonos Ray, as such it is my impression that it does receive or see the remote.However it keeps saying it’s unable to recognize the remote. Any tips I can try?

Hi All,Just get my Sonos Beam Gen 2 in order to complete my Panasonic OLED 55EZ950E sound.Of course HDMI port 2 is ARC labelled and I d’like to use it in order to connect my Beam but no success until now… Sonos app said Viera Link is not enabled. Viera Link is well activated in settings but I can't acces to Viera Link in apps in order to set up sound as home theater (information found on this community).Beam works with optical cable but I don’t buy it for using it with optical cable, I want to use 100% of Beam Gen 2 potential.Hope someone succed to solve the same issue :)

Trying to install Amp on my app App sees the Amp, starts installation and asks for 8 digit code. It then tells you to push the green lit join button. However the join button is not lit  Stuck. Suggestions??

If someone could help me with some tips I would be very appreciative…. my wife will think I’m a savior! I just purchased a home with a projector setup in my living room. There is an Epsom projector which has an audio out line into a Connect which is using WIFI (smaller version), for video the projector is using an Apple Tv. Whenever we use the TV we repeatedly have to repair the Connect into the projector and the Connect Amp in my media closet. Anytime we start watching, pause a show, move between streaming services, or if the Apple TV goes into sleep mode. Both devices are always connected in the app, we just have to repair them constantly! Any tips?

Hi all…I’m having a problem with the sound output on my Arc and 2 x Sonos 1 rears. I’ve done the basics right - e arc connection on TV and ‘Auto’ on the sound settings on the TV, but sometimes, say, through the native Netflix app for instance, a film that states Atmos will state “Dolby Multichannel 2.0 PCM on the Sonos app. It doesn’t always happen, so I know my set-up is ok. Is this Netflix not showing the correct sound output?Thanks in advance.

Comment fait ton pour pouvoir faire réparé un subA qui s'adresse?

Hello,  I have a beam gen 2 connected to my samsung tv with HDMI eARC and set up Alexa for voice control.It’s working great for all alexa’s request except the one regarding the TV. turning the tv on and off with alexa sometimes doesn’t work. I noticed that the tv had a blinking power red light. I think it’s related with the beam because when I unplug it the red light is not blinking anymore and the command works.Is there anything I can do to fix that ? I can’t disable HDMI CEC just for the sonos, on the samsung it’s all or nothing for CEC (anynet).I already try to unplug tv for 60 sec, it works for like 30 sec and then the blinking starts again.Hope I find a solution. Regards,Hugo

I have the following setup in backyard: Amp connected to outdoor 3rd party speakersAmp LFE connected to dedicated sub amp LFE input I plan to add another Amp and 2 more speakers to create surround sound for movies. If I wanted to add another sub with its own dedicated amp, can I do the following?1. Y-split the LFE output of the primary Amp that's powering my current speakers and connect the split connection to 2nd sub amp?2. Can I use the LFE output of the 2nd Amp (powering surround speakers) and connect it to the LFE input of the 2nd sub amp? TIA!

I would like to ask also to whom have the 2 ERA 300 as surround speaker...the fact that the central facing driver is disabled, when listenting to NON Atmos music is the sound worst than having for exemple 2 surround ERA 100 or Ones?I am still unsure if to add 2 ERA 300 or 100 to my Beam gen 2+ Mini sub sistem...I watch movies and listen to streamed music (non Atmos).Thanks 

I never thought sound setting could be so complicated, the settings you need to change to make things work and no device gets it quite right. I am using a LG C1 with an Apple TV 4K and a PS5. My Sonos setup is an Arc with sub and a pair of Ones. There are numerous options to try and get the audio format that works for everything but all seem to be a compromise and fairly confusing, at least to me.Firstly the Apple TV, when the LG tv is set to passthrough there is no Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital Plus, it passes the audio as LPCM 7.1, but Atmos works. You can change format in the Apple TV settings which makes it send DD 5.1 but for some reason turns off Atmos when this is done. I am unsure why there is no way to set it to play DD for non Atmos and keep Atmos on, or why you can’t select other formats like DD Plus. I have read that LPCM is better because it is lossless. But for me Dolby sounds better, as though it is not just about channels but how Dolby separates audio sent using Dolby

Hello,So I just got the Sonos Beam 2 and want to use it to it’s full capacity, meaning Dolby Atmos.I own an Epson TW6250 projector and I use an Amazon Fire Stick Max 4k to have access to Netflix, Hbo Max, etc.The issue is that in Netflix I can’t get Atmos (I’ve changed the settings to HIGH) and when I check the Fire Stick settings, it’s set on Auto (in order to get the best sound) but Atmos is not recognised.The HDMI cable is gold plated, so the highest 4k hdmi cable out there, I paid around 100 euros for it.Can you help me fix this issue? I want to be able to enjoy Atmos!Thanks!CPS: I attached an image to showcase what I mean by Detected Audio Capabilities Dolby Atmos = No. 

I can't pair my arc soundbar to my cell phone. I've gone to the end of the internet with no luck. Plug Un plug set and reset stand on my head ... everything and no luck .  I need help !!

Hi, I am looking at a set up with s Samsung TV, arc, amp, four ceiling speakers and a Virgin V6 box. How does the Virgin box connect to the amp?Thanks

I would like to place my sonos arc inside a tv cabinet that has a niche. If I add Sonos One to make the surround, the side speakers of the sonos arc (the ones that would be used to recreate the surround) would stop working, therefore not creating problems if I insert the speaker inside the niche or would the sound still bounce?

Hello, in your opinion, is it better to add a Sub Mini to Sonos Beam Gen 2 or add 2 Sonos era 100 speakers? My intention is to listen to music.

Hi, I have some old movies at home that I would like to watch with my family, but they have sound in DTS-HDMA, which my soundbar and TV do not support. So, my solution is to convert the DTS-HDMA to Opus. However, when I start playing the movie, the application displays "Dolby Digital Plus," "Dolby Digital," or "PCM Multichannel 5.1." I'm wondering if this is normal. My TV is configured with eARC and pass-through, but I don't know if that helps. I've tried everything, and I'm confused.  

i have many sonos speakers in my home, in the living room i have a arc + 2x era300 + 2x sub(gen3). i would like to create a group for the era 300s and one of the subs for music only without effecting the use of the sourround set when driving from arc earc tv setup.  in other words i would like to occasionally just use era 300s and a sub when listen to music only.

Hi,Due that Sonos don't want to give us the joy for a completely wireless speakers to be used as rear channels I have a question. What happens if I bond 2 era 100 to my arc only when I need them?When arc plays without detect rear channel it works the same as it would be in stand alone configuration or I have set up every time stand alone configuration?Rear speaker would dedicated only to this use but I can't leave them always in place and i don't want every time configure them as rear channels or stand alone.ThanksRenato 

I am trying to use the connect amp with my apple tv. After some reading I noticed this model doesn’t offer airplay. Would a bluetooth adapter work? Any advise is much appreciated. Thanks

Hello my Sonos arc within the last month started reading multi channel pcm instead of dolby digital 5.1.  The sound quality is not as vibrant as with dollby digital since day 1 of owning always read DD.  I have a Sony A80j arc sonos sub and 2 surrounds hooked up with sonos amp.  Not sure if an update has caused this problem or if its an apple tv problem but weird since it has always read DD.  Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve had a Sub Mini for a couple of months connected to Beam Gen 1. Been very pleased with the extra oomph. This week there was some kind of glitch with the Wi-Fi - my work laptop disconnected unexpectedly and Windows showed the globe symbol rather than the ‘curvy line’ connected to Wi-Fi symbol. I managed to connect the laptop to the Wi-Fi after a few minutes. The next day I noticed not all Sonos speakers were showing in the app and it was inconsistent, some speakers appearing/disappearing as I watched! I eventually decided to turn off the router and speakers, then turn them on one by one once router was back up and running. This solved the problem and all speakers consistently show in the app but ever since there has been a relatively quiet pop/crackle emitting from the Sub Mini when it is idle ie. TV on but no sound pushing through it - when perusing Netflix menu for example.As soon as we start a movie the Sub mini functions as normal. When we pause the movie the noise starts again

Unable to group speakers I could a week ago but suddenly the functionality has disappeared. Any ideas what may have gone wrong?Version: 15.3 (build 72240060)
