Home theater

With my new system Beam 2, mini sub and ERA 100 all plugged into internet except ERA. My rear speakers two era 100 i constantly am hearing like a choo choo sound snow. I am only about 15 ft from my router. It seems to happen when rear speakers go low in volume. It can be annoying. Any thoughts to this matter I would appreciate. Thank you my friends.

I just moved and am setting up Sonos in a new location and different router. I reset devices to factory settings. Music works fine. The Arc and Sub work fine with tv.  The problem: If I am watching tv with the arc and try to play music on the whole system, the arc will not switch to the music.  The music plays through the arc so I hear both the tv sound and music at the same time.  

I have a Sonos Arc Ultra connected via the HDMI Earc cable to a 2021 Sony XR-65A80J tv.  I’m using the Sony remote that comes with the TV.  When adjusting the volume there is 1) a delay in the volume response at the TV and soundbar, and 2) when adjusting the volume by multiple steps, it misses the input unless you press the button, wait, then press the button again.Can this be corrected with the tv settings? Or is this a common problem across Sonos soundbars and Sony TVs that is still unresolved? 

Randomly got notification to login as system owner in order to adjust any settings beyond playing music. Unable to do anything with account even thought I am still logged in to the same account with my same email. I never even logged out. Not sure if it is new app. Currently mid September 2024.  I tried everything from using a different device to completely deleting app and logging back in. I got desperate after looking at other peoples issues that were similar in nature and I needed to adjust the bass and treble because my son was sleeping.  i ended up factory resetting everything and deleting my account. I created a new account under the same email and re-set up everything with no issues. I tuned everything and did all the things with my bar and two surrounds. Everything was great.  that was until I tried to access the bass and treble settings as I have been doing for years. Now my system claims only one speaker is connected and gives me an e

Currently using Sonos Beam Gen2 on Sony 65” TV with eARC connection in HDMI 3. Sounds great overall, but background stadium noise when watching sports sounds very tinny or like through a metallic hollow tube.  I’ve confirmed through the app that it is running Dolby Atmos or Digital 5.1. Settings on (Google) TV are: Speakers > Audio System; eARC mode > Auto; Digital Audio out > Auto 1; Dolby Digital Plus output; Pass through Mode > Auto.    I’ve also messed with several tuning settings in the app, toggling off/on Trueplay, loudness, night mode, speech enhancement, etc. with no major effect on the background noise.  Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

I am having weird issue with Hisense U7 smart remote and Beam Gen 2. I cant turn on the tv with remote as it looks like beam 2 is obstructing the signal. but if i turn on the by taking the remote really close to tv receiver then tv turns and the remote works fine even from really far and can turn off tv fine. just cant turn on the from far normally.the other issue is that if i go to soundbar input from the tv when sonos home page comes up it shows 1280*720p x 60hz. i tried included in sonos box and also tried a separate hdmi 2.1 cable and same issue.any idea?thanks

My arch will not recognize my era 300 so it can make surround sound. Whats going on? 

HelloI currently have an Arc, Sub and two Sonos Ones.I currently have my Sonos Ones mounted on the wall in the corners. It has served me well for a few years but I am tempted to upgrade to Era 300.The Era 300 I think would need to be mounted just out from the corner, but am I doing this right? I see a lot of people saying to put them on stands but I don’t really have that sort of room and the wall would certainly be better?Also given where I have them, would I need to invert mount them or would standard orientation be OK?Thank you for any advice.Matthew  

I have a peloton that only streams bluetooth, but a TV with HDMI arc. Currently I have a bluetooth to RCA, sonos amp, two definitive front speakers and a definitive subwoofer. I’m looking to swap out the definitive fronts but keep the sub. Can I add two sonos era 100s as the front replacement and group them with the sonos amp? I need both bluetooth and HDMI arc connections. Also FWIW, sonos would benefit adding bluetooth in their amps or beams (perhaps even putting a HDMI arc connection in the era 300s) to avoid people having to pay $1k for that feature in the ARCs that support HDMI arc. 

Sorry for the question but I can't find answers.I bought the beam (gen2) and it is connected with HDMI (ARC) to the LG TV. All good for listening to movies (and also music only).But after I watched a movie I would like to go back to listening to the TV with their speakers WITHOUT beam.I try to set the TV speakers, but after a few seconds the HDMI cable automatically goes back and therefore on the BEAM.Can you please explain to me how to do it?many thanks

Hello I have had a Sonos system with a Connect: Amp powering two in ceiling speakers and a beam gen 2. Recently the 2 ceiling speakers stopped working. They are all still connected in the same room (as seen on the app) the connect: amp is connected via Ethernet but the beam is not. Both the beam and connect: amp used to work when I first added the beam. I’ve tried resetting my router and factory resting both the amp and beam. I have no idea what else to do. Please help !!!

HiyaI have a Beam and two Ones which are set as a hone cinema but only in front, I can't get any power behind our viewing position. I've set them up with the One's as surround but is there anyway of telling the app that they are Front Left and Rights not rears?

It's been over a year, is there any discussions on when this will be supported?  The documents from the box itself says to mount inverted if x feet from ceiling, yet the Sonos ecosystem says era 300 not supported?  Is this due to the app issues or lack of focus/support for new products?

Hi, I did setup the speakers to the new Arc and Sub 4 today but the sound do lag, then the sound disappears a bit and then back again within seconds the whole time.They are connected to 2,4 GHz 100/100 WiFi with full signal (sub also, only arc with cable), approx 5 meter from router.What did I do wrong?

Hello! I want to create this setup.  2 amps,  a pair of in-wall speakers, a pair of ceiling speakers, Apple TV, and a projector. What is the correct way to connect the amps to the Apple TV and to the projector. I’m trying to figure out what cables to have and exactly how to connect it all. Thanks!

I bought this at the store to plug into my tv...the guy that took this to my car for me said I need a receiver to make this work with tv...is that right?  Where do I get the receiver?

Ultra not recognizing bass and surrounds 

I Had a Beam connected by HDMI cable playing sound of TV. I added a new equipment, a Move 2 and the TV is not playing in the Move2. Both are in the same group. Only by Spotify I did it.

Recently unplugged and replugged in my Sonos ARC and do not have sound.    Please help 

I think I know how to do this, but I am gun-shy with the app lately.  My confidence is low in getting things right that used to be easy for me.  I purchased two new Era 100’s.  I want to replace my two Play:1’s that are surrounds in my home theatre room with the Era 100’s and repurpose my Play:1’s in another room.  I think I go through the “Remove Surrounds” in my existing home theatre room, but not sure.  Is this correct?  If so, how do I create a new room and add my Play:1’s to that room?  I am also thinking I need to do this before plugging in my new Era 100’s so I can add them as new devices and identify them as surrounds in my existing home theatre room.  Is my thinkin correct here?  If so, anything I need to watch out for or know before I start this?  After the app rebuild a year of so ago I have gotten myself into trouble numerous times trying to do something I thought would be easy.    

I have currently a home cinema set-up with a Beam (Gen 2) and 2x ERA 100. I use it for TV sound and also to listen to music. As the room is quite large, I would like to add 1 ERA 100 speaker a bit further in the room, to enhance my music listening (not for use with the TV/Home cinema). So I would select the speaker (using a different room name as the home cinema speakers) only when I listen to music. Could that work ?

Moin zusammen,aktuell gibt es im Black Friday 25% Rabatt auch auf die ERA300. Nachdem ich jetzt die Arc Ultra habe und als Surround Boxen noch die One nutze habe ich überlegt diese durch ERA300 zu ersetzen. Aufgrund meiner Raumgeometrie können die background Boxen allerdings nicht hinter den Sitzpositionen stehen und zum TV schauen. Mein Raum ist rel. lang gestreckt (9 m) und das Sofa befindet sich etwa in der Mitte, der TV hinten. Die Surround Boxen müssen also seitlich stehen und in den Raum rein ausgerichtet sein, auch weil man nicht immer Fernsehen schaut, sondern sich im Esszimmerbereich dieses Raumes aufhält und dort Musik hören will  Macht es unter diesen Umständen überhaupt Sinn die Era 300 zum Einsatz zu bringen? Im Forum gibt es schon einige Postings dazu, die allerdings doch relativ widersprüchliche Aussagen liefern von begeistert auch als Surround Speaker bis hin hinzu: Lass es und setze sie, als Stereopaar ein. Unschlüssig.  

My Arc is connected to a Sonos Amp that powers my in-ceiling Klipsch speakers as surrounds. I understand that Trueplay is not available in this configuration.If I take my Amp out of the zone and run TruePlay with only my Arc and Sub 3, then reconnect the Amp, will the Trueplay configuration stay in effect? Or will I lose it?

I'm trying to decide the best placement for my Sonos Era 300 speakers, and I'd like your input.Here's my current setup:I have the Arc, Sub, and two Era 300 speakers replacing my previous Sonos One speakers for surround sound.The blue circles indicate where my current Sonos Ones are positioned.For the Era 300s, I'm considering the following placement options:1. Green circles: Slightly above ear level when seated on the couch.2. Red circles: Higher up, angled downward towards the couch.Which placement do you think would deliver the best sound experience?
