I’ll be retiring in 1-1.5 years and the wife & I are planning to move to South Korea to live for 2 years before returning back to the US. I have several Sonos products and soon planning to upgrade from Sonos One to Fives to complete my system. I would like to take the Ones, Fives & Move with us to Korea. Will the Sonos work in Korea? Will the Sonos app and Spotify work? 

The Acoustic Engineering has created roughly equal excellent two speaker systems or surround sound systems - Sonos and Bose. It seems that how it makes makes difference.

Is Sonos making an announcement on May 25, 2022? If so, how can I view the announcement?

I have heard a rumour that Sonos are going to release the above in the near future. Does anyone know if it's true?If so will it be able to play Dolby Atmos content through the headphones?It's a shame that I can't use my current headphones (Sony MDR-7506 Professional) as there's nowhere to plug them in and they do offer great sound quality!I sometimes like to listen to music or watch a movie late in the evening and I can't unless I turn the volume right down as I have neighbours both sides with kids and I don't want to fall out with the neighbours lol

Seeing their is no Sonos Discord (or not one I am aware of) and the Sonos Reddit seems to be it’s own little thing, I thought I would try and add a little fun to the Forum here seeing everything is all issues, complaints, etc.. Can you name 5 songs (not previously mentioned) that have a woman’s name in it. It could be the title but it can also be within the song itself. Mine:Amanda in Amanda by BostonMary Ann in More than a Feeling by BostonJamie in Jamie’s Got a Gun by AerosmithBeth in Beth by KissRoxanne in Roxanne by The PoliceAll of these are easy ones, but can you name 5 more? Good Luck.

... It's already underway with a 25 euro Asus USB dvd player:  

Hello, any impact due to the potential Okta hack earlier today? Source: Okta hack puts thousands of businesses on high alert - The Verge

Has Sonos severed or suspended its commercial operations in the Russian Federation given it is engaged in a fascist invasion of a sovereign state and stands accused of war crimes? Yandex Music is a Russian entity. 

Hi!My name is Emma Joseph and I am a passionate blogger & model. Recently, I have launched my dream project under the title of Infozla * where I used to share about celebrities. I want to promote sonos’ products as an affiliate on my blog to get the commission per sale. But I am totally confused where and how can I start so, can anybody please guide me for this matter? Regards » Emma Joseph  *Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.*

I know specific bands are not really a discussion on this forum, too each his own. However, they just released this performance on various music services. Not a huge fan but recognize their and its musical significance to history. Just listened through Apple Music via Dolby Atmos with my Arc surround set. Just have to say really awesome and would definitely recommend taking 42 minutes to do so. Just incredible. 

I listen to somaFM continuously. It is listener-sponsored streaming radio, meaning that I make regular donations to keep them on the air.I used to be able to just put the URL in Sonos and play somaFM streams. But now it must go through TuneIn, meaning that someone else is making money from somaFM’s free streams. This is unethical, because there is ZERO value-add.Oh, and the ads are ridiculous, annoying, and make me want to ditch my Sonos and get AppleOne.

Depuis quelques semaines les programmes radios sont régulièrement interrompus par de la publicité. IL ne s’agit bien évidemment pas de la publicité diffusée par ces radios (c’est normal) mais des publicités qui interrompent des programmes en cours

About classical music, why there is no credit to works author's?Display is about opus, soloist, conductor, orquestra, but no author. And not everytime recording’s picture displays it, particularly if recording is a collection of several authors. Regards.

Bonjour après avoir écouté quelques chansons, parfois pas en entière sonos ce bloque en indiquant que le nombre de chansons écoutées est trop élevé, cela commence à m ennuyer fortement pour rester poli, merci à sonos de régler le problème, je veux et je doit pouvoir disposer de ma musique comme je l entend merci. 

I tried to add an internet radio station I liked (via “Manage => Add Radio Station”), but it didn’t work… This sent me down a rabbit hole… So here’s the question that may help me dig out: Is there a guide anywhere, or a ranking, or anything, to help me sort through all the TuneIn, radioPup, etc. stations? For instance, I type in “Bossa Nova”, and there are dozens. But if I get too specific, I get nothing. (For instance, “West African guitar”). There just comes a point in a man’s life when there isn’t time to sample and find what he likes… He knows he needs a guide...

Hello, I check in different forums, and the sonos community is speaking about this problem referring to a legal problem with TuneIn in the UK.I checked and tried to make it work for this radio https://ascoltareradio.com/rtl-102-5/Which works perfectly in TuneIn on any other platform (Android, iPhone, Windows, MacOS) without any problem except in SONOS.1 more detail, I am not based in the UK, why should I be impacted by this?I tried different radio streaming such as Radio.net. my tuner radio and same problem.Can you please provide a fix or a work around and also to communicate officially about this problem.Thanking you in advance

Hi everybody.I like sympa radio. How can I see the name of the song that is playing? For example, listen to the radio and others.

Hi Guys, I wanted to know, if anyone has used fives as studio monitors? Do you guys think, we can use 2 Fives as left and right channels on a studio monitoring sound interface? I would also like to know, fi using 3..5 mm jack to connect to a computer to use 2 Fives as Studio monitor is okay vs. using a 6 mm.? As such Fives don't have a 6.4 mm jack....so I will have to use an adapter and I am fine with that as long as the sound quality does not get affected. Thanks. 

I enjoy Sonos radio.  How can I see the title of songs being played?  For example,  listen to FIP and others.

I accept I have to listen to ads if I don’t subscribe to the PRO, Premium, VIP service. That’s fine. What about the volume of the ads? Does SONOS have to crank up the volume so much? It’s jolting! I read another similar comment elsewhere on these pages and the answer was something along the lines of “ it depens [not on us but] on who is serving the ads.”  Thanks but I don’t buy it. The high volume ads is an old radio tactic so the excuse is invalid. SONOS: WOULD YOU PLEASE TURN THE VOLUME DOWN FOR THE ADS? or TURN IT UP FOR EVERYTHING! 

I think this is for everyone (if not mods will delete and I apologize) but got an email for a cool free event this Saturday. Not a fan of this style of music but will tune in because it’s pretty unique and BEST of all, it’s FREE!  Let’s support this so we can maybe get some more of these events. Thanks Sonos! Stay in with  Sonos Radio Order in dinner and enjoy an evening of jazz with legendary musician Joey DeFrancesco, performing live from the historic Van Gelder Studio.    Tune in from the Sonos app.    Saturday, May 15 9:00 PM EDT

Since one keeps hearing over and over about Sonos not being a HiFi system - leave alone a audiophile one, whatever that means - I thought of starting a conversation on the subject. Perhaps there will no takers…but most of us are locked down, so let’s see:-).To start the ball rolling, for those that do NOT see the best of Sonos - a 5 pair + Sub - to be worthy of the HiFi label, can we hear from you specifying the cheapest system that you have found to be HiFi, playing in the same room and using the same source music files used for ruling out Sonos? It would help if you named the speakers, and also amp used if the speakers are passive ones, and its cost. And then say, what is it that, in your opinion, confers the HiFi label on that system. Note that there is no reason for something to be considered cheap just in comparison to Sonos price points; it should just be the cheapest System you know that does HiFi. Never mind if it costs less, same or more than the 5 pair+ Sub.

Ran across this article and thought it was an interesting topic of discussion.  https://www.musicradar.com/news/an-audio-engineer-explains-why-dolby-atmos-music-is-definitely-going-to-supersede-stereoDo others agree that atmos is going to supersede stereo?  I don’t, for a few different reasons.1 - We have decades of music recorded in stereo, music which is still highly consumed.  Attempts to modernize that music in to Atmos (Tidal) simply don’t sound right.  Of course, that doesn’t mean new music can’t be recorded in atmos, but unlike movies where you can upgrade to atmos and the audio comes out ‘right’, the same can’t be done for music.2 - Live music comes from a stage, not from all around you. I would argue that even when you can an original track in atmos, it doesn’t sound right to the brain since we instinctively know that music comes from a stage.  It always has throughout history.  Again, movies are different.3 - Keeping with the live music aspect, I don’t know that artists want

Cadillac has Bose, Lincon has Revel it would be nice to see SONOS in a luxury car brand, preferably American Luxury brand. I personally hope they could swip Lincon from Revel. lol Though Revel is okay as it is a Samsung own brand and connected to JBL, Harmon Kardon, AKG and etc.

So Sonos had their current quarter earnings call that exceeded the market’s expectations and more. This was after a few quarters of truly mediocre results. So what’s next for them? Just wanted to open it up to see what’s next for Sonos.
