How to best travel with MOVE 2 on a flight?

Need to do an international travel with 1 stop.  What are the recommendations for Move 2?  Should I take it in my Carry-on or check it in?  Is it allowed in a checked baggage?  And if I do carry with me, any issues with scanners in the US and also during the change of plane?  It’s also fairly heavy (7 pounds) so making sure I do the right thing

Move 2 - range and power for outdoor movies

I am thinking of using a Move 2 to solve an outdoor movie scenario issue I have.I am using a 1080p projector, with a 30’ screen that is around 50’ from the PJ. The PJ has a 10W speaker, and that is lame, and no usable audio options except a 3.5mm jack. I did try a P5:Gen 1 at max volume, which was better but still insufficient. That was also located next to the PJ ie behind the audience, which isn’t ideal.My idea is to get a 3.5mm->Bluetooth adapter for the PJ, then stick a Move 2 under the ‘screen’ (its really the neighbor’s exterior wall). There is no power near this location.What is the range of Bluetooth in clear air, with little RF interference?How much louder will a Move 2 be than a P5:Gen1?(Yes, this is not an audio-grade setup, I am aware of the limitations of my scenario, I just need more volume)

Can Sonos Work with Multiple Bluetooth Devices?

Hi everyone,I recently got a Sonos Move, and I’m wondering if it’s possible to pair multiple Bluetooth devices at the same time? I’d like to switch between my phone and laptop without having to reconnect manually every time.Thanks!

Why are Sonos products so hard to use?

I just wanted a pair of Bluetooth speakers that I could stereo pair. I didn’t realize that WiFi was required, and I wouldn’t be able to use the Move with the Arc. My bad for not researching enough $800+ down the tubes. I truly despise these speakers. The delay alone with my Mac makes them near unusable. As a retired technology product owner, I can’t believe this company is still in business.

Wake up Alarm not working

I have a Roam 2 speaker, and I’d like to use its wake-up function to play every day around 7 a.m. However, I don’t want to keep it on the wireless charger overnight, even at full battery, as I’m concerned about preserving the battery health.The issue is that the alarm doesn’t go off consistently. It works when the speaker is on, connected to my phone, and set a minute ahead for testing. But when I leave it overnight, the alarm fails to go off, and the device doesn’t appear in the Sonos app in the morning.Is there a way to ensure the alarm works without having to keep it constantly on the charger or connected?

Sonos roam led rouge et blanc

Bonjour tout le monde,jusque là j'étais tranquille et serein avec mes 2 petites Sonos Roam couplé en paire stéréo. N'arrivant pas à intégrer Tidal dans l'interface Sonos, je me suis dit... Tentons une mise à jours. Pour une enceinte R.A.S. Pour l'autre.... Ça clignote rouge et blanc. Impossible de l'éteindre ou de faire un reset.. Que faire ? Appelez le support ? Mais comment peuvent il intervenir sur l'enceinte ? Merci pour votre éventuelle aide. Bonne et douce fin d'année Gaetan Moderator Edit - Translation by Google:Hello everyone,until then I was calm and serene with my 2 small Sonos Roams coupled as a stereo pair. Not being able to integrate Tidal into the Sonos interface, I said to myself... Let's try an update. For one R.A.S. speaker. For the other.... It flashes red and white. Impossible to turn it off or do a reset. What to do? Call support? But how can they intervene on the speaker? Thank you for any possible help. Happy and sweet end of year Gaetan

issues with music streaming

This is my first time using Sonus and to say I’m disappointed is an understatement. I can't connect Qobuz, my preferred streaming service, and then I find out that I can't install Spotify either.  Absolute shambles of a product. Disgrace.

Feature Request: Trueplay on android using portable speaker (Roam/Move)

I know Sonos doesn’t offer advanced Trueplay on Android due to variability in hardware (mic) but since Sonos produces portable speakers with built in mics, wouldn’t it be possible to setup means to use Sonos Roam/Move speaker mic to perform advanced trueplay at multiple listening positions for other Sonos products (ie Beam) using Android phone?

Roam Waterproof cover

I use my Roam in the bathroom where it does get wet through the steam. Although it is waterproof to a degree, I would like to prevent damage. I am informed that a waterproof cover is available. Is this correct?

Safe Temperature range for a Move 2

I use my Move 2 in my garage a lot and the garage has a flat roof and we’ve been experiencing a heat wave with temperatures in the upper 90s. The temperature in the garage can get up to 115°. Is it safe to keep the move out there between the times, I am listening to it or should I bring it inside into cooler temps?

Roam 2 charging

Any recommendations of what wall outlet plug to buy for charging Roam 2 via the USB-C to USB-C cable that comes with it?  The only one I’m seeing on Sonos store is for the old prior gen Roam and USB–C to USB–A.  I’m going to buy the charging kit too, but I also want to be able to plug it right into the wall as opposed to setting it on the charging stand.

Roam 2 only charges in temperatures under 70 F

I think I have a new idea as to why sone Roam 2s are not charging.  Mine has the same problem  I tried quite an assortment of chargers and cables. I also did the long press reset suggestion multiple times.  All to no avail. In the evening I sometimes got intermittent charging with USB-C (charge for 5 minutes, then stop for an hour, repeat).    The only variable that changed when I got the intermittent charging was room temp.  So I thought, what if the battery temperature sensor is bad or miscalibrated.  Since it protects the battery from overheating, it may be shutting it off at too low a temperature, such as at room temp (80 in my house during summer).So I put it on my weakest Qi charger  (which never charged it at all) and put it in the fridge overnight.  Voila! it went all the way to 100%.  This was repeatable.  I’d move it outside, and while on the charger, it would discharge at 10% an hour.  Back into the fridge, and perfect chargingSo try it in the fridge to see if my case is a o
