I would like to know what would be best EQ settings for combination of Sonos arc and Sub Mini. I have medium sized room with 9 feet ceiling.I also wanted to know what is the right place for placing sub mini.currently I have following setting Arc: Bass is 0 , Treble is 3 with speech enhancement  and loudness both OnHeight is 7Sub Mini - Bass is 4 placed next by seating position  ( opposite to arc ).With this setup I feel sometimes good and sometimes underwhelming  - I don’t feel enveloping  soundhave done true play alsokindly  suggest right settings . 

I received my new Arc Ultra today and I was looking forward to switching from Arc to Arc Ultra. But after one hour of fruitless attempts I gave up. Yes, I have a brand new Ultra sitting in its package in my living room and for the life of me I couldn’t get it to work with my setup (Sub3, 2 x Era 300 surround speakers). The current system works flawlessly, is connected to my wifi and works fine. The moment I try to hook up the Ultra I’m unable to get it to work with my current wifi. The network pops up sometimes, most of the times none of my wifi connections can be seen. Consequently, the Ultra winks out and the usual suggestions for repairing the wifi pop up. Since my wifi works flawlessly with my Arc I see the problem more on the side of the Ultra. After having gone through the same hassles with the Ace and the ongoing problems with the app, I was hoping that the installation this time round should be a straightforward five minute job. Well, the speaker is back in its package. I’ll

I have a arc/sub and 2x play 1s.when I record programmes or watch something that can watch from the start-if I pause or fast forward sound is lost. If I turn the tv off and on quickly-sound is back…any ideas on what I would need to change?it’s a Sony a8 tvlatest virgin box. All good cables and no play stations etc attachedthanks!

Hello, I sold my Sonos Gen1 to buy the Gen2. I have two PlayOne surround. Since I made the generation change, I no longer see my two PlayOne. No more way to configure them. Is it normal or do you force me to have to buy two Era 100? Too bad, until now I was very happy with Sonos. I also have a One with a microphone. As much as I look at the Bluesound side as I have a Node... 

Other than turn off the surround speakers, how to stop surround speakers from fluttering when playing music from the phone app with ARC Ultra and Era 300 Surround speakers? I know this question has been ask before, but I have not found a good solution.

My Arc is connected to a Philips TV and has been working flawlessly until about a week ago. Since then, there is no sound when i turn on the TV (no settings changed on the TV). I have to disconnect the HDMI cable and then plug it back in to get sound. Anyone has an idea what could be wrong? Was there a recent firmware update? 

Hi, I read around a month ago that inverting the era 300 was not fully supported in the software yet, was looking for some info on this topic, is it fully supported yet? If not when is it likely? and also can anyone explain what not fully supported actually means.

I can't get my Telus remote programmed to control the volume or mute on my soundbar. The tech tried a few programming codes with no luck. is anyone aware of more codes to try. 885 didn't  work. Thanks

I have recently added the Sonos arc ultra to my setup (sub gen 3 and 2x ones in surround. When I use streaming services Netflix / Plex it sounds great, but for some reason sky movies have to have the volume turned up and surround sound isn’t great. I am running the tv to the arc via HDMI earc. I also have all Sky settings at Dolby digital?

Can someone tell me what exactly needs to be taken into account when it comes to the distance related to setting the surround sound?The distance between the Era 300 and the listener's ear, or the distance between the Era's external speaker and a nearby reflective surface?The Eras are located on the wall on both sides of the sofa on the wall, facing forward towards the TV and there is a maximum depth of 10-15 cm between the listener and the speakers. The distance between the TV (77”) and the viewing position is approx. 3 m. I know it's not perfect, but you have to adapt to the existing conditions. Both are at an equal distance, 1.3 m to the right and left of the student's position. The one on the left is 40 cm and the one on the right is 60 cm from the furniture, which means the reflecting surface.During movies, I have the feeling that the one on the left sounds louder than the one on the right. Sometimes I don't even hear the right side, but then it speaks when I l

I’m having trouble with my sound. I use my phone or iPad to control volume. It now seems to only work if I use my tv controller and put it on mute. This issue started up after trying to connect headphones to my tv.

I keep having this notification. I wish Sonos had more setting options in the app. More features more functionality. This however has been going on for a month with seemingly no fix. 

i have two Sonia Era 300s as surrounds they are mounted up side down and seem to be working fine but I just noticed this coming up when going into the app settings anyone know what’s going on?  

I have a few Sonos play ones and playbar in my bedroom.  I have the status lights disabled but when the volume is set to zero, the lights come back on. (Hitting mute doesn’t cause the issue). This is a bit annoying because I don’t want the lights on at all, has anyone else experienced this issue?  

 Hi all, I was wondering if you could provide some guidance about a 2nd sub. I'm no expert on the interaction of sub/bass, and based on reading other posts I understand it can be tricky. I currently have the sub in the upper right corner next to the tv, and I was wondering if a 2nd sub would work ok next to the left side of the couch, as that's really the only reasonable spot I have.

Hi. My gen 1 beam (and sub) is connected to a LG television. When I turn off the TV (using the remote or asking Alexa) the beam goes silent. After about 10 seconds the beam plays 5 to 8 seconds of TV sound.This is not a major problem but it can be off-putting when I turn off the TV and leave the room only to hear a few seconds of speaking or music. Any thoughts or ideas?

So, with the launch of the new Google TV box, I couldn't help but upgrade. However, has anyone experienced audio sync being well out?  And seemingly the need for a minus correction option within the Arc sync correction settings? I don't seem to be able to add the topic tag of #GooglevTV

Arc is making a cracking sound intermittently.  Wassup with that!?!   Stuff costs too much to not work correctly.  it’s happening during active streaming and also when just resting on a homepage.   doesn’t happen when playing music.   

Okay am i the only one here was thinking that 1k£ sound bar will be louder than sonos five ? I mean doesn’t sound louder at all than one of sonos fives and the price is double . And seems changing in so os app treble and bass doesn’t actually does anything am i the only one thinking like that and is it actually has to be like this ? 

My Move & Roam are not connecting properly to TV audio when added to the group. All my ‘non moveable’ speakers connect seamlessly. Both the Move and the Roam’s audio drops out every few seconds if I try connecting them to both my Beam or Ray while watching TV.There are no issues with connecting the Move and Roam to the Beam & Ray while listening to music. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? 

Sometimes when I power on my LG TV (UM8070PUA) no sound will come through my Sonos arc speaker. It does t happen every time when I turn my tv on, but when I does happen, I have to unplug it and try to rest everything, (annoying). this has happened since I bought this speaker a few years ago. It’s annoying, does anyone know why this keeps happening and how do I fix it?!?

I have Era 300s and 100s in white. Is the Arc Ultra and Sub gen 4 white all the same shade of white? 

When will this be on the Sonos Road map?  There is no reason for Sonos to force customers to spend more money on the larger sub if they already own the mini’s.  This is just greedy practices.If this will never be on the roadmap, please advise, so i can start to phase my future purchases to another companys product.  Sonos has not done well by its loyal customers and this is a simple fix if you wanted to generate some good faith among customers that you would like to keep.

Beam and sub-mini owner. Wife and I struggle to watch tv together due to my hearing deficit. I need it loud, she doesn't. Is it possible for us to watch tv together while I wear Ace headphones with customized volume (louder) while she listens to ambient Beam and sub-mimi at a normal volume?
