Is it possible to have different Alexa account users to connect to Sonos. I have an existing Sonos system (4 speakers) configured against my Sonos account .. My wife wants to setup various Alexa skills which are different than the ones I want to use. Is this possible

If I have just a Sonos One, can I use that to develop new alexa skills of my own, or do I need an official Amazon device to do it? I signed into the alexa portal and was given options to register an Echo, Dot etc. but nothing about the Sonos. Anyone any ideas?

Hi just a quickie I hope :D when looking at the controller on my Laptop in the list down the right side under the heading "select a music source" should I be seeing my iphone and the music on it ? thanks and sorry if its a stupid question.

Hi, I've tried out PLAYBAR, 2x Play:1 and SUB. But I'm not convinced, especially when it comes to use the system for music listening. I miss the "solid dynamic sound" from the PLAYBAR as you get in a Play:5. I love the SUB though, it's amazing. However, I've been thinking about a solution like this: - 2x Play:5 as front speakers. -1x Play:3/Play:5 as center speaker. - 2× Play:1 as rear speakers. - 1x SUB My question is, does Sonos support this set up for 5.1 surround? If, do I need to add any extra components?

Hi There, I've been going through similar topics here on the forums for a while now and am still unable to get any audio through my sonos from the TV. The TV is a LG 55B7 55" OLED. I have a Playbase connected to two Play:1 speakers. The red light in the optical input on the playbase is glowing, the cable from the TV to the playbase is also glowing red. There doesn't appear to be any other troubleshooting steps I can take at this time. The playbase/play:1 setup was working fine with my previous TV and the RCA cable connections. I can't seem to get the Line-in to recognize that there is signal coming in. It just tells me "To use Line-in, connect a device to a Line-in capable Sonos player."

Dear Sonos, I have bought 2x play 1 for in the living room. I want connect the speakers to my Samsung smart tv, is this possible? As I just graduated I am obviously not going to spend a lot of money to buy another Sonos system. If there is no other way, I suggest you figure something out to connect the sonos play 1 to the tv, otherwhise you will lose another customer. To be honest, I can think of a billion ways to make it work. Best regards, Bram

Do I need to worry about this? https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/27/16822816/sonos-bose-speakers-hijacked-play-ghostly-sounds

My Daughter's name is Alexa so the name does not work in our house...will there be an update to change the name for the Sonos 1?

Hey guys, I feel dumb for not being able to figure this out, but I'm looking for some help in getting the most out of my 5.1 setup with my Xbox. I've read as many posts as I can but some are quite old and a lot of the links given by Sonos Support are broken. When I go into the Xbox audio settings I have the option for 5.1 but it comes back with an error. I have my Playbar connected to my Samsung TV (2yrs old), along with a Sub and two Play 1's. When I go into the Controller it says that the player is outputting in stereo. I've read that some people are using switches to connect their Xbox directly to their TV but it seem like it should be more simple than that given everything is fairly new. Any thoughts on the settings to get surround going? Thanks in advance!

I have 2 Play:1 speakers and have attempted to setup each one using my iPhone X & MacBook Pro. I've been completely unsuccessful due to the "Version Unconfirmed" error each time (as in each Play:1 and trying with iOS & MacOS). This couldn't be more frustrating and disappointing as someone who's very experienced in tech, but new to Sonos.

Hi, Could someone recommend a good turntable to use with Sonos please

Am trying to add the Sonos skill to the Amazon Alexa App on my iPhone but when I link the account and get the @Sign into Sonos using your Amazon Account" screen it is not recognising my Amazon password (which I know is correct). Also getting the same behaviour on my iMac using the Amazon Alexa App online. Have tried to reset my Amazon account password but still not working. Anyone any ideas?

If I want to TV mount playbar, are this brackets (http://www.amazon.co.uk/AVF-Universal-Soundbar-Bracket/dp/B00GUZYS5C/ref=pd_cp_rec-ht_3) enough or do I need sonos wall mount kit as well (http://www.sonos.com/shop/products/playbarwallmount) ?

Hello, I just got a 2 play 1 , play sub and the playbase. It works great for music but it is not working for surround. I have it hooked up via the optical cable to my TV. Any advise on how to get it going or what to check would be very much appreciated.

Just got Sonos one and assigned it to the Kitchen but would like to place in master bedroom. When I change name/location in settings in both the Sonos and Alexa app., Alexa still says "master bed room off line". When I switch back to kitchen it works. Is it possible to reset the device?

My living room has a play bar, subwoofer, and 2 Sonos one all connected to the TV. I just added a Sonos Play 1 to my exercise room. When I attempt to do exercise I checked the box on the app the Sonos Play 1 exercise room ans started music. The problem is when I did that I unchecked the living room because I didn't want the music playing in the living room. My wife was watching TV in the living room and the audio turned off when I did that. Is there a way I can play music in the basement in my exercise room and have TV audio come out same time in the living room?

How would you connect an Audio Technica AT-LP120 record player? I tried to connect directly to Play 5 and can't get it to play.

Can I get 2 play 1 speakers and use them as tv speakers instead of buying a soundbar?

I am considering the Sonos system but need to be able to play my existing CD collection from a conventional CD player. I understand both the Sonos Connect and the Play:5 have an Analogue In option. As far as I can tell the Connect is required if you also want to have an Analogue Out to existing amp with speakers, but if this is not a concern, is there any reason to buy a Connect if you already have a Play:5? A related question is: if my CD player is already connected to an Amp, can I connect the Amp to the Connect or Play:5 or does the CD player need to be connected directly to the Sonos gear?

I’m curious, if you have multiple Ones in the same room (either as stereo pair or both standalone), do they all listen for Alexa commands? Or do you select just one to manage the voice control? How well does this work? I know having multiple echos and Echo dots can be a bit clunky as they will both listen and then decide after activation which one will process the request.

Wanted to buy this for home, however it seems that this doesn't ship to india.

New connect:amp problem - I just bought it brand new and it doesn't turn on. Plug it in and nothing, no light. I tried both wattage options also - any ideas?
