How do you Symfonisk? https://www.engadget.com/amp/2019/01/18/ikea-sonos-smart-speakers-release-date/

I'm looking at the possibility of setting up a Sonos surround system upstairs and downstairs as well as Play:5's for music in different areas of the house. This is a lot of money. My concern these days with technology is that it seems to have a shelf life of max 5 years and then it is considered throw away. You used to be able to buy a expensive set of speakers that would keep their quality sound for 20 years. To prove this, all you have to do is go to any high end stereo store that sells old high end systems. Amazing sound! I'm in the financial industry and I've learned over the years that even the good companies don't always last. Their products though should still be usable. What I would like to know, if Sonos, for whatever reason, goes bankrupt. What is the implication for my system? I know that there would no longer be any updates for the software, but would the system still function as it did at the moment that Sonos no longer existed? I tried searching this on the

was reading about your new IPO and in the article it said you would no longer be supporting some of your older speakers in the near future, what speakers do they anticipate no longer supporting?

Wow. May have to stock up while they’re still available for $15. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/01/google-kills-the-chromecast-audio/

Currently the Sonos can be integrated with Alexa. There are plans for including Google Home an I even seen plans for integration with Siri. Are there any plans to integrate with Mycroft (https://mycroft.ai/) as well? I would be greatly interested in this integration as my recorded data will not be stored on a server and it is not used/sold for marketing purposes. In addition their new speaker with a display would be a great addition to the Sonos line as well. Anyone who would support these features here on the community? Kind regards, Frank

I am trying to set up new speakers at my second home using the same app I use for my main home. Can someone provide me with assistance? I am teying to connect a beam and two 2 play 1. I want to use it as a center and two fronts. When i turn on my app, it recognizes the wifi at my second home. I tried to add these speakers to this by clicking on more options. On there, it gives me an option to add another sonos system. After clicking here, it gives me an option to sign in or create an account. I chose to sign in and followed the prompts. When it comes to the part where I need to push the button on the back, this initially flashes red or orange then eventually solid red or orange. Not sure what to do from here. Thank you.

Love the Sonos gear and ease of use. It just works, and that's all anyone could ask for - almost. :-D Here is a feature request - I'm asking for Google Home and Sonos be integrated to work together. I'll not be using Alexa, so that won't help. Google tech covers much ground and is quite a bit ahead of Amazon - IMHO.

Can I connect my beam to a Samsung sub.

How can I get of your email mailing list? When I click on the unsubscribe link it takes me to a login screen which is no use to me. Just get me off your system please

I'm not sure how many customers you have so this may not be feasible, but would you consider offering one share of Sonos stock to existing Sonos customers?

Is the new? I like! https://www.sonos.com/en-us/shop/accessories/apparel Only thing I'd say is... more options, more colors. I think "Listen Better" will be added to my Christmas list. Maybe a hat.

Hi everyone, im pretty new in this community here. Been reading and eyeing on new updates always and often wish there are newer ones. I’ve been a sonos lover since 2016 yet unfortunate enough to afford any of them. Been saving up my penny as much as I could to purchase one of them. Initially, my favourite is always the PLAY 5 (Gen 2) as I just want them in my bedroom and some nice stereo surround. Im no audiophile or whatsoever but i do enjoy good music and watching movie. So, basically Im based in Melbourne and been to few general stores like jbhifi and myer to test out how these bad boy sounds. Unfortunately my surroundings are always too noisy and distracted therefore I cant really determine how good the PLAY 5 would be. I was comparing it to the BOSE soundtouch 30 to be honest as most my mates do own BOSE and make me to get them instead of SONOS. Alrighty, here we go. So, one fine day i decided to search up for some personal stockist that sells SONOS, BOSE, B&O and etc. I fi

Am I the only one getting fed up with the Sonos policy of forcing updates whoever they feel like it. I am an intermittent user and have a couple of old iPads that I use as controllers. Now it appears that I Can't use them until their software is updated. All I want is a basic and stable system that operates when and as I need it. Unless I want all the extra features I don't see why I should have to waste so much of my time Grrrrr!

When the hell is sonos going to deliver on promises to work with google

For those who can’t quite seem to grasp why Sonos can’t support older versions of iOS. Apple’s policies dictate. Sonos must play by Apple’s rules. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/02/apple-dictates-that-all-new-apps-must-fully-support-the-iphone-x-screen/

Hi Everyone! I have SUB configured with two PLAY:1's in a stereo pair and was wondering what everyones favourite songs are that you think really brings out the best of SUB and the wonderful stereo imaging that the PLAY:1's provide! I'd be keen to hear any kind of music and really want to bring out the most of my system with a wide variety of tracks! Thanks in advanced!

I love listening to songs on crossfade, and every so often I'll find two songs that just line up/mix perfectly, have you guys discovered any with a pleasing/cool mix on crossfade?

2018 is starting to wrap up and we’re curious — what’s been your favorite sound experience on, with, around Sonos this year? Was it a movie? A podcast? An album? Who was with you? How did it make you feel? We want details! Share your tales here!

Hello everyone, I found this site through instagram with Sonos products at very low prices: [removed] Would you confirm it is a fake? Thank you

How many Sonos users out there have a music library that is greater than 65,000 tracks?

Was in BB the other day, checked the Bozo display. Noticed it had been completely updated, yet again. After three... three!!! generations of their miserable Soundtouch multi room system, they’re finally throwing in the towel. It must have been a very expensive mistake. The death is confirmed over on their forum. https://community.bose.com/t5/SoundTouch-Speakers/Deezer-HIF-on-Bose-amp-Bose-is-stopping-soundtouch/m-p/151902#M69961 😃

Picked up a Homepod over the weekend. No comparison to my Sono's system...in fact it has made me fall in love with my Sonos all over again. Whoever said that the Homepod is a Play5 killer is on crack 🙂

I don't see these unpaid forum stalwarts anymore and I miss their posts. In my early days here, and even later, I learnt a lot from their posts on various issues related to both Sonos and home audio in general. Users and posters of today don't know what they are missing obviously; suffice it to say that they are missing a lot. In places like these, people move on and one loses track of them; wherever they are, here's hoping they are well and thriving in their present pursuits.

This is getting very interesting. With the addition of Alexa Cast, which IME works better than Chromecast, and certainly better than AirPlay, Amazon is building quite a system. Obviously they don’t have SonosNet, but with lots of mesh WiFi systems on the market now, they may not need it. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/09/17/amazon-planning-8-new-alexa-devices-microwave-amplifier.html

With the latest Verge interview with Sonos CEO. I am feeling that sonos will fail to deliver on Google integration let alone a google skill this year. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/highlights-from-the-vergecast-interview-with-sonos-ceo-patrick-spence/ar-AAyHq9k So I am considering getting right on my Sonos ones and going back to play 1. It is very disappointing that Sonos has miss the spring time promise. And after reading the interview. Maybe we will see it in 2019. I have lost faith that we will see it in 2018. And now you do not even see google assistance mention in the Beam or the One product page.
