Owners café

There are a ton of duplicate stations via these services. I’ve noticed when searching for something like KEXP or BBC, they pop up in multiple services.Do you like 1 vs the other? Is there any info on the bitrates of these feeds (does one stream higher quality than the other?) I’ve noticed TuneIn has a lot of commercials on their own TuneIn-branded feeds…

Seems like the outgoing CEO was rewarded for the huge app debacle. If Sonos wanted to promote goodwill in the user community they would have fired him several months ago.

I love my Arc/Sub/SL system and wish there would be further Sonos Radio programming. The Brian Eno“Lighthouse” stream is a monumental package and shines in the dimensional opportunity for the sound system. (Aside: what are the intermittent “chimes” that occasionally pop up between pieces?). Great depth. Perhaps other sonic artists could be approached : Tipper; Reznor/Ross, etc  Also, a library specific to larger than stereo mixes. A bunch of catalogs from every style have experimented with the possibility. Sonos could bring them together.The Sonos Radio guest dJ streaming mix series (Thom Yorke, Bjork, etc), are a gas. When will the offerings be expanded? 

Hi when I edit my email address and hit save the changes don’t save.  Can anyone offer any advice?

for 1 year anniversary of purchasing my first sonos product, I received from sonos an email with 15% discount code for any sonos product.will I get it once again for 2nd anniversary?

I’m concerned.  Recently purchased a Move 2 from Costco since it was a great deal that included the free redemption of the Travel Bag.  Unfortunately, for some time, I’ve been checking the website to see if I can redeem the travel bag.I see many have been talking about the back order taking long, however, as of right now it is showing as “Out of Stock”.  Therefore, I can’t redeem the code provided to me from Costco, while, at the same time, I see that the bags are available via the Sonos Store on Amazon.I do realize that there’s probably been a surge of requests from the holiday sales.  But it’d be helpful to know if or when this might get resolved.Anyone else experiencing this and concerned?

Given the diversity of the listener base and the fact that it’s expanding at an incredible rate, it would be an awesome idea to allow for listener created content, almost like SONOS does with their “Sonos Presents” source.  Solicit groups of listeners to create, or add, content that can be vetted by Sonos and then published?  Any music that’s not already in the Sonos Music Content Library can be researched and potentially obtained by Sonos.One of the largest complaints I have about other services (Sirius, iHeart, etc…) is their 4 hour playlist and then “repeats”….Would be nice to learn new stuff about artists/genres. Side note:  The new “New Wave” station is AWESOME!!!!!!

So, what is the replacement for this worthless crap we cant get rid of????

What is going on with the Sonos apps?  I’m using the most up to date iOS app on a fully updated iOS platform and all the speakers are up to date.  The new interface is terrible and I would hate to even see the code for it.  Doing simple things like removing recently played off the home screen now involves navigating multiple menu’s to accomplish. Drop the web control and focus on the android and iOS app, please. I have two Era 100’s I have in a stereo pair that will loose connection with each other causing one of the speakers to quit playing.  Opening the app and looking, they are still paired together, just not working.  I have to unpair them, repair them, and then re-tune them.  I check my router and make sure the Era’s are still both connected to WiFi, and they are.  I’ve tried changing the wireless channel they use to talk to each other and that doesn’t help either.  Nothing in my network infrastructure has changed and all other devices are operating normally on the network. I have

Anyone know of a way to change the sonos pre-defined music categories?  For instance, SONOS categorizes some of my “Bluegrass” music as “Contemporary Country.”  Seems to me, there should be a way to go into the Sonos music listing and change the category of a given CD etc.    Any Comments?   

Hello Sonos community,I have a specific inquiry regarding the Sonos Move 2 in the 'Green' color variant. I am very enthusiastic about this particular shade and would like to paint my wall in exactly the same color. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate if you could provide me with the exact color code (RAL, Pantone, or RGB) of this olive green shade.Thank you in advance for your assistance.Kind regards,

I originally subscribed to Sonos HD Radio through Apple, then cancelled in 2023.  I want to reactivate my subscription, however the Sonos site says I have a subscription with Apple and to go through the Apple subscription app to cancel, however Apple doesn’t show that subscription (assume because it’s so old).  Any way to get around this without having to call sales Mon - Friday?

Hello all, I've used Sonos for many years but for the past few since I got the new speakers it has never worked properly. The Wi-Fi router im using at the moment has 2ghz and 5 ghz my old speakers connect on 2ghz and my new ones only connect on the 5ghz I've never been able to solve this. I'm thinking of getting a new Wi-Fi router to try and solve this. Is there a recommended one that definitely works to connect both Old and New speakers?

I understand mistakes happen and sometimes it just takes time for things to be remedied. But today is the last day! I am so sick of my speakers not being able to connect! I am so sick of the garbled sound that comes out of them! I cannot believe how much money I’ve spent on this garbage system! And now I’m stuck with it! I own two arcs, a sub mini, two 300s, one 100, and four ones. Also a five. a totally trash system

Hi Everyone how you finding the experience with latest iteration of the app.i’ve had a medium and then a large SONOS system since almost day one.the latest release of the app has to be the buggiest since the products launch. Not to mention navigation is no longer intuitive. i’m really considering shifting to another platform Is it just me that hates the new app?

hi.I have bought an additional cr200 controller for my system, to avoid using a mobile phone. During the update, the screen is frozen and I can't move on. hi,I have tried all the options I could find on the internet. I have contacted Sonos Denmark, they have not been able to help. I need the cr200 to work, as we are trying to be a mobile phone family. can you help? I would also like to know where I can buy a Sonos controller without using a mobile phone.Kind regards, Rasmus

I just tried 3 times to join the community, and each time because of a user name already taken or because I didn’t check the box to accept terms, all of my entries on the page were cleared out and needed to be entered again. Couldn’t the webpage check the entered user name real-time like many websites do to see if it’s already in use? Couldn’t the page keep all of the details I entered when there’s an error so that I don’t have to re-enter all of the many Sonos products I own? Joining this community for the very first time after being a Sonos customer for many years and it’s already a bad experience. Come on Sonos, you need to get the simple stuff right. https://en.community.sonos.com/ssoproxy/setUsernameForm?signupFormError%5Bterms%5D%5B0%5D=Please+accept+the+terms+of+use.&

I absolutely hate the Sonos software system, it’s great sound and I have bought so much Sonos gear that now I’m committed, but I can’t believe how terrible the software riders are for this company! Everyone in that whole division should be fired. If I was Elon Musk, I would buy this company and fire every single employee that works there. I am currently trying to access my Sonos system using my Sonos app, I am currently playing music through multiple speakers using my Spotify, but guess what the Sonos app says… Can’t find your system!!! This is garbage s***, I really can’t stand how terrible this is that if I’ve ever become a billionaire, I’m going to buy Sonos and fire everyone  Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.

Sonos, c’mon. It’s been 5 months since the version 80 app release and you’ve been making promises the whole time of us seeing improvements and after 5 months it’s just not working. Please just admit the full depth of the debacle and roll all the software back and give us back the working version.As I type, my wife is listening to music in the kitchen and I like what I’m hearing so I fire up the Sonos app on my phone to see what’s playing in the kitchen and the app swears up and down “No content” in the kitchen zone, even after force-quitting and restarting the app.My core needs and user journey are pretty simple:fire up the app and have it connect instantly and with zero fuss search for music and find what I’m looking for add it to the queue, maybe reorder the queue control playback (pause, resume, skip among songs with back/forward or by random access in the queue) with no lag create groups for multi-room playback control volume (in one zone or several) with no lagVersion 80 broke ALL

Hi, is there anyone from Sonos support here?I’ve been waiting almost two weeks to have an account deleted. Zero response to my requests for updates (nice).Tried the live chat (twice), was told to be “patient”.Rang the support number, huge wait.Please, is there anyone from Sonos here? This is an account deletion, should take like 2 minutes, not 2 weeks. I should not have to beg like this.

‘Sonos’ upgrade cycle is getting out of hand. I’ve got the Arc, Sub (Gen 3), and Move, but now they’re pushing the Move 2 with no ability to stereo pair it with the original Move? That’s disappointing. And the 15% trade-up discount feels more like an excuse to get us to spend thousands on a ‘whole new system’ every year. What’s next, a system with ‘12.9 surround sound’ and another upgrade push in 12 months? Sonos should focus on better compatibility and seamless integration across their products, not making loyal customers feel like their gear is obsolete. We invested in their ecosystem; it’s only fair they support it properly.

 Why are posts being reviewed then never get posted.  None of my posts contain questionable language.

After a decade of being a huge fan of a sound system which was as easy as sound perfect, I today sold my last 3 era 300 and will therefore leave this world. I decided on this not because this fatal app release happened but obviously this is company who has forgotten what it is about: customer friendliness and competence. The reaction to this unthinkable release has been a punch into the face of all us customers who were not customers but loyal believers and this can not be rewon A sad goodbye
