Home theater

Hello everyone! I experience that when I play sound on the arc ultra, it gets hot on the left side (as seen from sofa) on the back of the soundbar where the vents is! Does anyone have the same issue? I hope Sonos will fix this through a update hotfix./Josef

A new system, connected Arc to TV via wifi, tried setting up sub via the wifi, it goes thru the set up and for finish up with an orange/red light when I power on Any ideas welcome Thx Chris

Can the Sonos Beam help simplify my home theater system? 

I am setting up a new Sonos arc, amp, and subwoofer gen 4 for a client. When i was able to add the devices with some difficulty but now that i have the products added it will not allow me to create a room for the equipment therefor i cannot set up the system any help??

I have 2 Sonos home theater systems and a stereo pair and ALL are down right now, even the ones with a direct HDMI connection to my TV.  Sonos is apparently having issues because the icons for streaming services keep disappearing and won’t stream (gives “Internet down” message, despite my Speedtest showing a solid 1GB connection to all test servers..).   Why can’t I play audio locally when Sonos is down?  Is this like that BMW “Pay a monthly subscription for heated seats” deals where SONOS can just brick my system if they decide to shut down? I’m going to throw all of my SONOS gear out the window, this is ridiculous.

Hello. My Sonos Ray just arrived and it sounds great, however I have a problem configuring the remote. I have searched Google, Reddit and this support forum and I think this is an app/software issue. I tried two IR remotes, the TV one (Horizon Android TV, definitely an IR model) and a Tuya internet enabled IR emitter.I go to the Sonos app, I start configuring the remote. It asks me to press 3 times the volume up button.For the TV remote, the soundbar seems to receive the messages because the leds light up exactly 3 times, however the app tells me nothing was received.For the IR emitter, the leds light up, the app gives me an ok icon, but then it goes back to "we did not detected any signals" message. I can restart configuration and the app will ask me the next command (volume down, then mute), however after I'm done the Ray still doesn't take the comm

I have an Amp S1 (I know...it’s really old) and would like to connect my TV audio to my Amp using with an HDMI cable.  I just tried connecting the white/red analog cable into a HDMI converter with the HDMI cable going from the converter into the ARC HDMI port on the TV.  No luck.Has anyone had any success with connecting an Amp S! with wired speakers and a TV with HDMI?

Just set up my new ARC ULTRA.  It’s a nice step up from the original ARC.  Better sound overall and clearer dialog.  Only issue is that it won't work with my Sonos 1 surround speakers and original sub.My plan is to move the original ARC, surrounds and sub to our bedroom TV.  But it's only 45 inches and the table it’s on is not wide enough for the ARC’s total width.  So here’s the question… CAN I PUT THE ARC BEHIND THE TV? Back there it’s excess length won’t be as noticeable. Thanks. 

Can the Sonos Beam help simplify my home theater system? 

Would I be able to create a surround sound system with my Sonos beam soundbar, aftermarket rears, and a sub? I also have 2 or 3 Connect:Amps left over from a previous house. 

7 yr old Sony XBR, soundbar, surround speakers, sound bass, and Sonos bridge. WiFi video streaming.   YouTube TV works fine - turn tv on, select YouTube and instant sound.  However when I select Netflix or Prime, there is a minute audio delay before ANY sound starts up.  Sometimes I fast forward or reverse and audio then kicks in.  Any quick thoughts? Problem seems to be getting worse over the past year. 

Just setup the Arc Ultra and attempted to pair it with my existing Sub 3. Sonos app says they are paired but then they immediately unpair. I have tried factory resets and repairing multiple times, no luck. Tried calling Sonos customer support but the wait was too long. I’m beyond frustrated.

Hello. Can you get the sound from the TV to the Sonos speakers via WIFI?

Hi, after finally setting up my new Beam 2 using the Sonos app on a Samsung S24 (painful to say the least) I sat down to enjoy a few Atmos movies.All seems reasonably OK but I’m not overly happy about two things:The loudness variation between different apps (Disney, Netflix, Amazon, Apple etc) is massive when switching from one app to another or between apps and terrestrial sources; We’re forever having to amend the volume settings. Is there anyway to maintain the same sound level no matter what the source? Similarly, when watching a movie we experience silent lows where we can hardly hear what anyone is saying to incredible highs where we have to turn down the volume. The variance is massive and results in almost non-stop volume alterations.Are these common issues with Sonos soundbars? I can’t see any setting in the app that maintains a level volume setting and the Samsung TV’s volume management setting is disabled as it expects the

I’ve currently got a beam bar and the cracking/popping is driving me nuts. It only happens on certain programs/apps.  When the surround speakers work they isn’t no cracking/popping but soon as it’s just the beam bar working on its own the crackling starts. It’s fine when steaming Spotify etc. any ideas how to stop it cracking? Current using a Panasonic TV. 

Hi all. I’ve recently purchased era 300s coming from Sonos ones used as rear speakers for ARC ultra. Yes they are great with Atmos content but I had much better sound coming from ones with other content, can there be option so we can use the 300s in different sound modes so a correct sound output, full sound coming out of all speakers (centre speaker) as well so it’s all up mixed. Just  think there should be more configurations for the era 300s. 

I have a Sonos Arc in Black. I plan to get the Sonos Arc Ultra in White…but I’m wondering if I can use the black power cable I got with the Arc?I notice on the website it shows this power cable is compatible with the Arc, but doesn’t show Arc Ultra.Can anyone from Sonos look into this and confirm if the Arc power cable in black is compatible with the Arc Ultra in white?Thanks!

How can I balance the sound better, when I watch a movie most of the time in an action scene I have to turn down the sound and then I don't hear the dialogues loud enough and vice versa, if I turn up the volume to hear the dialogues then as soon as there is an action scene I have to turn down the sound

Does Trueplay™ still work with Beam (Gen 2) with the latest iOS and S2 software? I can no longer find the menu item in the app?

Can there be a third option for loudness (specifically base) other than just toggling night mode on and off? I have the beam with surround (sonos One’s) and the sub. I love the loudness and extra bass when night mode is off but my wife not so much. I feel like there should be an inbetween mode. 

For a more immense experience, I would like to add two Era 100 on the side, combined with my system made with Arc ultra and the two Era 300. This will make the listening experience even deeper. I specify that I am not interested in high volume, but in the intensity that can be received by adding two speakers l to the side of the system. Has anyone done it or can give an opinion?

I have been using the Playbar with BT box for several years. I used the BT remote to adjust volume on the PlaybarI recently bought a new Pansonic TV. The TV is connected to the BT box with an Hdmi cable; the TV is also connected to a DVD player via HDMI. the TV is connected to the Playbar with a cableI can change channels etc with the BT remote so that is functioning fine but I cannot make any volume adjustments using the BT remote. I have tried to get the TV remote to adjust the volume of the Playbar but also with no success.How can I adjust volume on the Playbar?  

I am an old guy so have mercy.  I finally retired my Playbar and bought the Arc Ultra and I am having trouble hooking up my older Sub 2.  I can add it to the system and I get the chime but no sound at all from the Sub. I have tried all the usual things I can think of, update the speaker, Wi-Fi on and off, Ethernet cable plugged-in or not, remove the sub and reconnect, etc. Nothing brings the sub to life.  I would appreciate any suggestions anyone can offer me.  Ill try anything once and if it sounds or feels good, more than that.Thanks
