If you’re referring to ‘powering on’ the Sonos Move, then one easy option is to return it to its (hopefully working) charger-loop linked to a power supply and it should power up… if not, try a USB-C PD certified power adapter. See below:

The power adapter must be USB PD (Power Delivery). For 45W operation the PD source must put out either 20V/2.25A (or higher current) or 15V/3A (or higher current).

For 36W operation the PD source must put out 12V/3A or 15V/2.4A and charging speed is reduced if listening to audio at the same time. Anything less than 36W will not power, or charge Move.

That sounds very complicated- I’m just trying to get it switched on and playing the playlist I got on it . I think you might be referring to something more complicated than I’m looking at - thanks anyway.

It’s just providing the different ways the Move can be powered. Is the charger loop that is supplied with the Move not working then?
