Good afternoonI’ve recently purchased the ARC, Sub (gen 3) and Move and have discovered that you only support 24bit streaming up to 44,000hz or 48,000hz. I have a lot of music that’s in 88,000hz, 96,000hz or 192,000hz (.flac container format) and I can see that this isn’t supported!This is real shame and I’m sure many other customers will feel the same? It would be great if your developers could implement this as soon as possible via a support update?

When I went to remove the Google Play service using the Sonos Windows app, I was prompted for my Sonos credentials. A few questions follow:-Why am I required to authenticate to Sonos to change a local configuration?-Is Sonos storing my services configurations in their cloud? If so, how do I opt-out or disable this?-How do I sign out of the Sonos Windows app?Thx

What type of cord do I need to connect my Sonos Move to the router... what type of cord connection goes into the Move

In the last few weeks the Fast forward / Rewind bar has dissapeared from both my iphone Sonos app and Mac app.  This is when playing music from my NAS drive.  It was working absolutlely fine up to a few weeks ago and now with the same tracks it doesn’t show.  Any ideas?

I have a problem with Alexa enabled Sonos speakers: Beam and 1s. It used to work but now if I say Alexa, play xxx, the speaker says playing xxx but doesn't. I can play the same things from the Sonos app. I don't even know whether the problem is with Sonos or Alexa!

I have a flashing red battery light on my Move even though it stil has about 65% of the battery remaining - any ideas what the problem is?

Hello,Is it possible to disable airplay or add a password to airplay?I do not want that everyone is able to play something on one of the Sonos devices…Thanks!kind regards, Michaël

I need an advice on building a home theater system with Dolby Atmos support... I'm planning to use Apple TV (gen 5) as a source of AV-signal to my Denon AVR-S950H receiver. It has two HDMI HDCP 2.2 outputs with eARC support. I want to use one of them to connect a projector and the second one to connect Sonos Arc. All components support Dolby Atmos and theoretically everything should work, but I'm not sure about that... Does anyone have any thoughts on whether Dolby Atmos will work in this type of configuration?

Hi all. Hope everyone is swell.I have a few SONOS 1s, a Beam, and one of those IKEA speakers all happily working together.Over the summer I updated my wireless router from an old single band one to one of these new fangled (for me) routers with the multiple bands. I bought the seemingly popular TP-Link AC4000 Smart WiFi Router (Archer A20). Here’s the situation.My iPad and laptop both have never had issues with connecting to the SONOS system. They work great.My iphone, on the other hand, constantly loses it.All apps and OS are up to date. It’s not a distance from the router issue as they’ve all been tested mere feet from the router. I was just browsing SONOS on my iPad and had phone next to it and the phone can’t find the SONOS devices.This may be more of a question for the TP-LINK folks, but I wanted to try here first just in case. You’ll see in the screenshots that my phone is on it’s own 5Ghz channel. I suspect that is the issue but not sure why or how the router’s ‘smart connect’ s

There are 2 entries in “Music Library Settings” /Users/me/myDirWithMP3s/ : a directory on my mac //XAirport/myDisk/myDirWithM3Us/ : a USB disk on a router. The second works perfectly. For a few months now (update to OSX Catalina ??), the first, i.e. the files on my laptop, became invisible in the Sonos App. I tried to remove and re-add the entry in the library settings of course, without success. I do not get any error message (“not available”) when I force the indexing of music, it just appears to be skipped. NB: Not sure if it’s an issue, but when I go to “folders” in my music library, the second appears with the same syntax as above, but the first is referred to as //myComputer/myDirWithMP3s

Hi, the Audio drops if I want the same music in every room.  All the boxes work individually. All the boxes can play different music at the same time.  But if I want the same music one box always stops. If I create a stereo pair the both stop.  please help my. I migrated to the s2 to update and now it really really sucks..  

I actually use a bridge and a connect with my Conrad-Johnson amp, CD player and wired speakers. Should I upgrade to Sonos port and boost? If I upgrade to Sonos port, do I need a bridge or a boost or is the port can be used without a bridge or a boost?

So...I seem to be able to connect the Move to any device (iphone, etc.). And I can connect the Peloton to any speaker (headphone, etc.). And I can pair the Move with the Peloton. But, when I start a ride/stretch it says no device is connected. Anyone else have this issue? Is there a solution?

Hello!I have a Beam and two 3s. They are combined and appear as Living Room. They sound great.Sometimes, though, I might want to stream music through one of the 3s on its own. Can I do that? Can I define it as its own entity and leave it as part of the group?Thanks!Nik

My youngest child broke the lamp of my black Ikea Symfonisk   Is there any replacement part that I can purchase? I could not find it anywhere….   Is there any site for replacement parts? Many Thanks

Hi there! I have reported this as a potential bug, but I wanted to see if anyone else has noticed this. Ever since upgrading to S2, my iOS controller will not stay connected if the Sonos app is force closed.  To reconnect the app, I have to reset the app and join existing system. As long as the Sonos app is not forced closed, all is well.  As soon as it’s force closed...issue.  I did not have this issue with S1.  I have performed the troubleshooting steps which lead me to this observation.  It’s been a few days now with no issues since leaving the app open. Thank you for any insight provided.

HiI have an Echo Dot 3rd Gen and Sonos Speaker in most rooms and I have Alexa groups setup to use Sonos as the default speaker.I have used this with no problems for months with Spotify, Audible and Stitcher all playing by default through Sonos when started via voice control from the Echo Dot.Now, as of a few days ago, only Spotify plays through the default speaker - Audible and Stitcher play on the Echo Dot. If I specifically ask Alexa to play Audible and Stitcher on a Sonos speaker, they do.I have re-authorised Spotify, Audible and Stitcher in the Sonos App.Has anyone else experienced this?Any suggestions?ThanksTim

Hello,I Have a PlayBase in my Current Home Theater system, I want to upgrade to Arc,i can see in my sonos account tat i can upgrade for 15%.. i dont understand the concept.if i want to buy the Arc, Sonos will take my Playbase only for 15% from the total cost of Arc? 

Hey there, hoping someone can help me out with this question. I have two Sonos groups in my house, one stereo pair of Ones (right and left), and another surround group (Beam + two surround Ones - R and L + sub).  Anyone know if there is a convention as to which Sonos speaker should/does become the group coordinator (for example, when both the stereo pair and surround groups are grouped together into one overall group)? It seems most likely that in the case of the surround group, the Beam would become the coordinator (though I can’t find any documentation to confirm this). The case of the stereo pair is less intuitive though - which one becomes coordinator, the left or the right? Is it randomly determined, determined based on alphabetical/numerical order of the device UDN, or always the R or L by default? Thanks in advance!

I have a Sonos One in most rooms and Beam+Sub in the living room.Is it possible to have reminders sound on nominated or all speakers?If I set a reminder at 10 in the morning for 6 in the evening, who knows which room I'll be in at the time? However, the reminder only seems to play on the speaker where the reminder was set.

I have CenturyLink provided router and internet service.  I have a NetGear router in a different area of my house that is wired to the CenturyLink router.  I am using the NetGear as a wifi extender and have a few devices wired into the NetGear.   I wired the Boost into the NetGear because that physical location is helping the Sonos system work with a Connect that was too far from the CenturyLink router and had previously been consistently cutting out.  With the Boost in this location, all my Sonos devices are working well, no connectivity issues.  The issue I am having is that the Sonos app will only work if my smart device is connected to the NetGear 2.4 or 5.0 wifi option.  If my smart device connects to the CenturyLink 2.4 or 5.0 wifi option, the Sonos app won’t see my system.  Will I always have this issue whether my Boost is wired to the NetGear router or the CenturyLink router?  If I connected the boost to the CenturyLink router, then anytime my smart device automatically connect
