Hi everyone,I'm trying to set up two Symfonisk speakers as surrounds for my Sonos Beam (Gen 2), but the app won’t let me complete the setup.Both speakers are visible in the Sonos app and work fine individually. When I try to add them as surrounds, it's working but after i have in the app for Symfonisk surrounds Not connected statusAny idea what could cause that?Thanks for the help!

As deep as I dive in Sonos world, more issues I’m finding. I hope this one is just a settings mistake or a SW easy-to-solve topic. Although reading some posts from 2 years ago, I’m really scared.Since I started to use SVC a couple of days ago, (to skip the missing of control with the phone locked), I’ve figured out that the mic turns off randomly so, when you try to speak with Esposito, there is nobody there.I’ve read the manual trying to find what I am doing wrong. Then, I reinstall the SVC in Arc thinking it could solve it. But the result is still the same, the mic switches off constantly. But I can’t believe a hardware issue is not fixed 2 years before…. Or even worst, that Sonos is sending old bars or damaged ones knowing that.I’ll call support this evening or tomorrow, because that’s the recommendation of Sonos’ staff, but just to know if somebody finally solved it or have some advice.Thanks! 

I have an Arc Ultra sound bar and I'm thinking about In-wall speakers for the rear. I have power available, so can I go without the amp and just connect them to my Arc Ultra through WiFi? 

Whatever I do, I seem to get random surround speaker dropouts.These last a few seconds, occurring maybe every few minutes - whether I’m on TV audio or Sonos Sound System Radio which I assume rules out any TV related issues.I’m running an Arc Ultra with a Gen 3 sub and two Ones for surround. The TV Is a 5 year old LG.  Having started with a totally wireless setup, I’m currently trying the Ultra, the sub and the TV hardwired to the router, which is only about 3-4 metres from the Ones. All software is showing as updated. And I’ve lost count of the reboots performed.So, what can I try next?  Is it somehow an unresolved wifi issue between the Arc and the others, or could it be a gremlin in the actual Ultra, or…?I’m stumped, frustrated and right out of ideas! Any suggestions much appreciated.Thanks all. 

I am trying to do an outdoor set up for a projector. The equipment id like to use is:projectorscreenroku stickMove2 x 2Roam2 x 2 i cannot get the projector or Roku to connect to Sonos system. I purchased the amp, thinking that would solve the problem, alone with an hdmi audio extractor, but the audio still played through the projector.  Any tips??  

I have a surround sound system.  Every day, although music still plays the system disappears form the app and I go through the network update routine.  This is getting so regular that it is more than a nuisance.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  Thanks.

After the last update, my Sub G3 that I use with my ARC now sounds weaker and I have to increase the volume of the sub from the application when before I didn't even have to do it. The worst part is that if I turn off the Sub G3, the ARC sounds with more bass than the Sub itself.

Music cuts out on the playbar only, not on any other Sonos product. *Can’t edit my spelling on topic heading* 😩

Sub mini is connected but no sub sound connected to Sonos Beam gen 2

Hi All, Last week I received a Refurbished Sub Mini from Sonos (ordered directly from Sonos). This was added to my current Sonos Beam 2 + 2x Sonos Era 100s setup.Within minutes of getting it all configured, I noticed a deep popping noise coming from the Sub. This occurs randomly (I have got a couple of videos), but I’d say on average once every 5 minutes. It doesn’t seem to correlate to any particular music or sound and occurs via TV connection, AirPlay and even when the Sub is not playing any sound (but still connected and on). I have done all the usual troubleshooting attempts, such as;Changing Network ChannelDisabling 5GHZ on the router (using only 2.4GHZ)Hard wired the Sonos Beam 2 via ethernet to ensure the Beam and Sub are connected via SonosNet (WM0)Turned off multiple times via plugRemoved from Sonos app and reinstalledChanged Sub placementReset all EQ setting etc Despite trying all of the above, the annoying popping noise continues.Before I return the Sub Mini, are there any f

Like the topic title says, Just putting it out there. Hope option for Front speakers happen soon.New CEO really seems to finally care about customers wishes and wants. Hopefully this is one first things that comes out very soon.After this happens, love see DTS;X finally arrive.

Hi all,Sorry if this topic has been covered already but I’m getting so many conflicting instructions and advice and nothing has worked or been clear. I recently bought a Samsung S90F and wanted to connect it up to my existing Sonos Playbar via Optical cable - sound comes through on all devices but I can’t change the volume or mute. I’ve tried setting the Sonos up on the TV as a Home Theatre and assigning it as the output, with the TV sound also as Optical - still no success. I’ve gone through the Sonos App to add my remote control using their instructions but it never recognises the remote (its that one that uses solar to charge). I’ve read multiple conflicting articles on the remote being RF and Bluetooth to it being IR and RF and with the Playbar being IR only, perhaps this could be the issue.  I appreciate any suggestions on whether this connection is possible and if so, how? Am I doing something wrong, missing a step or need an addition “thing” to make it work. Thanks in advance 

Hi all - I have a current 5.1 set up in the family room (sorta)Denon 5.2 Ch Receiver PSB bookshelf speakers x2 In ceiling speakers x2 No sub (need to drill through cabinetry) No centre channel speaker In my equipment cabinet I have a Sonos AMP which is currently being used to power my outdoor deck speakers I also have 9 other Sonos powered zones through my house via AMP or Connect:AMPSo, I really need to add a centre channel and sub to this set up.  Sound is “ok” but without centre channel, the dialogue is missing something.Am I able to integrate the sound bar and sub into this set up easily?  Thanks 

Bravia A95L Sonos Arc Ultra (plugged in to eArc port) 2x Sonos Era 300s as rear left and right Sonos Sub AppleTV 4k & PS5 For the past year I’ve been having this weird issue after waking my TV and playing content. The only audio I'd hear would be coming from the Arc, but it's just the rear channels (as if they're replacing the center and front channels normally outputting from the soundbar).If I switch the audio output to TV Speakers on the A95L, the screen goes black for a couple seconds, comes back, weirdly is still set to Audio System for output (or possibly switched back to it automatically), and the issue is gone.This happens every time I wake up my TV and also happens with my PS5, so it’s clearly an issue between Sonos and Sony.I've tried power cycling TV, ATV, and all Sonos products, but that didn't help. I’ve tried different cables as well as resetting the HDMI handshake by plugging things in one at a time.

I'm choosing rear speakers for my Beam (Gen 2). I have two questions:1. Can I adjust the bass and treble levels (equalizer function) on the Era 100 or One SL while they're paired with the Beam?2. I know the differences between the One SL and Era 100 are Alexa smart speaker functionality and size. Are there other differences? Do you know about any differences in sound quality?Thanks.

I got the Beam 2 a while back. I went for Sonos since my father has the Sonos Ray and I thought it sounded great. Reading that the Beam 2 would be much better I figured it would be a perfect setup.After using it for 6 months now I have to say that I am a bit dissapointed. First of all it doesn’t sound as rich as the Ray. I don’t know why but everytime I visit my father I notice that the sound from his Ray is richer, deeper bass and clearer. We have more or less the same TV (old Samsungs from 2013-ish - optical out) and same settings. I have tried every setting in the app and all EQ settings. And we have the same TV audio output (PCM). The sound just isn’t there. My beam sounds more hollow and “metallic”. If I raise the bass and treble it sounds more “stressed” in the highs and closed in the mids and bass. If I lower the bass and try different combinations with or without loudness and speech enhancement it sounds hollow (like a laptop speaker). I only have the Beam unit, not any extra s

I purchased the Arc Ultra a few days ago and connected it to my LG TV, but there's a problem with the TV's speaker. When I decide to use the TV's audio, the Arc Ultra prevents it, and the same happens with other devices connected via Bluetooth. In short, I can only use the soundbar's audio, and this is really absurd because I didn't have this problem with previous soundbars (LG and Bose) connected to the same TV. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One-week-old Sonos Arc Ultra makes a noticeable popping sound when navigating in/out of content. It’s not the loud pop reported earlier this year, but still audible and annoying. Factory reset twice with no change. Happens with all content types (stereo, 5.1, Atmos, YouTube, Netflix, etc.). Setup: Apple TV 4K, LG C1, bitstream input, passthrough output, eARC, Sonos HDMI cable. No speech enhancement enabled. What are my options/next steps? Example captured on video:  

Recently, I’ve had trouble with nbc—I can’t hear the sound from the sports announcers. If the ref speaks, I can hear him. On those same broadcasts, some commercials aren’t playing all the audio either. It had always worked in the past, but stopped a week or two ago. 

Hi allmy beam keeps dropping out after a couple hours of watching TV. Connected to 65” Samsung Tv (18months old) sound just disappears and I have to switch it back to TV sound, unplug the beams power, plug back in and it comes back again. All updates have been performed and I’ve even laid 7m Ethernet cable under the floor and wired it in to my router so I know it’s not a WiFi issue.  any help and advice would be greatly appreciated 

I have a sonos system in which there is a duplicate room (living room). The pair of sonos 1's appear in one room while the sonos arc and sub appear the other.

One SL and Era 100 can each be paired with Beam Gen2 as rear speakers. My question is: Can I pair them in a mixed configuration, using one One SL and one Era 100?

Hi,I just got an ARC and my 2015 Samsung TV [ua60ju6400wxxy] has finally connected using the method mentioned on the thread below BUT now there is no sound coming from apps on the Firestick [HDMI port 4]!?!? Anyone got any advice with these Anynet+(HDMI-CEC) options on the Samsung? I'm lost and totally disheartened after a few hours messing with Optical adapter etc…. :( Surely I don't need to buy a new TV? Or do I? Thanks in advance  

Subject: Help Connecting Sonos Ray to TCL TV - Setup QuestionsHello Sonos Community,I recently purchased a Sonos Ray soundbar and need some help connecting it to my TCL TV.Setup Details:    •    Product: Sonos Ray soundbar    •    TV: TCL TV    •    Connection method: Optical cable My Questions:    1.    I want to confirm the proper connection process using the optical cable that came with the Ray    2.    What audio settings should I configure on my TCL TV for optimal performance?    3.    Will I be able to control the soundbar volume with my TV remote, or do I need to use the Sonos app?    4.    Are there any specific audio format settings (PCM vs Dolby Digital) I should select on my TV?I initially thought the Ray had HDMI ARC but learned it only has optical connectivity.

In all honesty, this old thread is spot on to what happened to me the other day: SONOS Arc: Loud Random and Bone Chilling Noise | Sonos CommunityOut of NOWHERE the system went bonkers, maximized the volume and I can only repeat the wording from the original poster: “Its the most unsettling noise I can imagine, instantly gives me chills and even as I'm typing this, I'm getting chills just thinking about it.”I managed to stop the madness through the app after 15 seconds or so. Resuming the current Spotify track also resumed the inferno and of course you can´t pause the “music” immediately again since the app becomes non-responding for a few seconds until the silence comes to save you. I´ve been using my Sonos system more or less daily the last four-five years or so with problems limited to minor things that I think all on this forum can relate to if I should list them. But this sound from hell was at a completely different level! And I´m not kidding in the thread subject - I am reluctant
