My Sonos Roam has been unreliable since day one. I thought it was me not pressing hard/firmly/long enough on the  on/off button on the back of the speaker.  Several times I was going to contact the support team shortly after I purchased it but then it worked so assumed it was user error. Today all the system was working, good wifi connection, Roam turned on, lights displaying - not a sound even though the app said otherwise. The app then stated not connected. I turned it on, off, on again, off completely pressing top and back buttons, leaving a few minutes, turned on again. Still no connection despite app. stating otherwise momentarily. Please either sort it out or replace it with  a working Roam. Thank you in anticipation. 

My speakers are in a photo studio and I want other people to be able to play their music on them. 

I have an Era 100, which I was using only for music streaming (Spotify)Recently I have bought a Panasonic TV and paired the Era100 with it.The problem is, how to use the TV remote, tu volume up and down, as right now is useless.The only way to use volume, is with the slide on the TV, which is really uncomfortable.Another thing which I noticed is: if I am selecting the TV out, and the Era100 is paired, then the sound comes from TV speaker and Era100, which is annoying THANKSSteve

About six months ago my Sonos would randomly just not work from the app. It would work for a few days and then not for a few. Finally it completely stopped and I reset and reinstalled the speakers and app. All was well for a couple of days. Then one speaker would play a different station from the other speaker.  Went through the same reset and reinstall process. Also unplugged routers. Now only one speaker shows up on the app. I heard that Sonos recently updated their "system" and things have been glitchy since then. Any advice, suggestions appreciated. Such a great product, very disappointed that I have to go through the reinstallation process every few days. 

Our fire station just got an LG 75UT8000.  We have been doing surround sound through a Samsung tv prior. As of right now I can get surround through the LG when playing through the built in apps. But I only get PCM when playing through the HDMI output which plays from an Apple TV 4K. There were no issues through Apple TV on Samsung TV. I haven't changed settings on Apple TV. I've tried auto & pass through options on LG TV and still get PCM through the Apple TV. Currently connected optical output audio through a Sonos Playbar.  Thanks for any insight 

I have created a stereo pair with my Beam and 2 Play 1s. The connection worked well and I did the Trueplay tuning. However I am watching TV with my beam and am now trying to select my stereo group. The option is available and all speakers show online but whenever I select it the option never activates. Any help how to get the option to actually select and hold please.

I’ve had Sonos speakers for over a decade so am well versed in issues and resolving them. That said I am at a point with a relatively new Sonos One SL (Oct 2023) where I’m close to ditching the thing.  Almost every month, for no reason we can fathom, it disconnects from the system and I have to go through the entire factory reset, setup from scratch. It’s the only thing that works. Even then I often have to do this several times until, again for no obvious reason, it returns to the system.  the other speakers are and have always been rock solid - two ancient Play 1 and a very old Playbar. This sound familiar to anyone - any help would be appreciated. 

I have an amp running speakers in gym and added a sub.  After setting it up an assigning it to the gym I get the tone out of the speakers acknowledging that it’s connected to the amp and the app says connected.  But when I go back into my system the amp is not appearing in the gym and it’s not playing when select some music.  I’ve removed it and added it back at least 5 times and factory reset and added it too.  

Does anyone know how much Patrick Spence’s severance package was worth after he stepped down?

Does anyone have experience with concealing a Sonos Amp in a dedicated recessed media box behind a Samsung Frame TV? I’m obviously most concerned with heat build up and ventilation. Thanks ahead of time!

I have a gen1play5 which is not being seen by S1 app having done as many fixes as possible with technician and my own research. I have newer S2 system speakers also. Can I set up the gen1 play 5 in a wired way with some S2 speakers?

Help! I have Amazon Music unlimited in New Zealand, and it's driving me inane trying to get it work with the Sonos App. I can't just add it as a service but have to use a convoluted process with Alexa and it just doesn’t work nicely. I can’t easily select different music for different rooms, and today nothing would work for my wife on her phone. I really don't want to have to swap to another streaming service again. Can anyone tell me why I can't simply add a service in the Sonos app? Amazon Music is available in New Zealand. I have a family account. Especially after how much I have invested in Sonos products since December 

For years I have streamed SirusXM music (or my Apple/iTunes Music Library) to all of my Sonos speakers, mostly Play5 and Roam, but now they can only be played from my iPhone 15 to the speakers,  My iPad sees the speakers but the sound does not come out of the speakers and it eventually gives up and stops trying. This problem appeared in the last 1-4 weeks.All Sonos speakers have the current firmware.All Apple devices are using the current iOS or iPadOS.  No recent network hardware changes.All speakers are accessed via wifi & AirPlay. No ethernet involved.

Hi,Would placing the era 300 upside down around 50cm from ceiling affect sound quality that much?Perceptually how would it differ from placing them at ear level?Thanks

Is there any way or update that can reduce the minimum delay (75ms) of a Sonos system, to a maximum of 7/10ms ? As it is now, its impossible to integrate properly with another system that cannot be delayed due to live performance reasons.Therefore going to Sonos in this scenario its a deal breaker, unfortunately.Looking forward to your reply and thank you very much for your time.Regards,Miguel Escada

Community consensus: Impossible or difficulty to connect bluetooth headphones to SonosGoogle AI:  Yes you can - if you have a ‘bluetooth transmitter’ - but Sonos devices are receivers onlySonos App: ‘Add headphone’ → steps a b and cMe: Sonos App procedure doesn’t work. But isn’t my phone or computer a ‘bluetooth transmitter’?So what is going on ?  Can I or can’t I use bluetooth headphones?

Has anyone found a way to confirm that a Sonos Boost is connected using the New App?  In the Old S2 App the Boost would show in both the System listing as well as in the “About My System” listing. Thanks Dave Wilkinson

So I just switched to an ASUS Mesh Network.   The ASUS app shows which mesh node the Sonos devices are connected to, but for whatever reason a bulk on my Sonos Devices show offline (even though they aren’t).  The odd thing is some items are listed twice (offline and online) Some by the IP address and some by the MAC address and some are only listed by the IP address for instance my Sonos Arc Ultra,  my Beam Gen 2, the Move 2. From what I can sort of tell the main speaker show up correctly, but if I have it set to a surround (2 rears and a sub) those devices show up offline by their IP address and online by their mac address. Any idea what is going on here?   

I noticed this appeared on my network after installing a Sonos Ray.What is it for?It appears to be a upnp server of some sort.I would like to disable it if possible?I tried support but they didn’t know surprisingly.

I'm wondering why I'm no longer able to play my Mixcloud content on my Sonos speakers. Adding my uploads to the queue, at first there's nothing (error 1002), but soon after the queue does appear. However, when I try to play the queue, nothing will play. If I try to play an individual song-mix "show" from the list of uploads, I get the error again, and nothing happens. I can play my bought content an Bandcamp okay in shuffle mode. I tried playing a Featured Playlist from Tidal, but got the error again and nothing. I'm not able to clear the Mixcloud queue that's still showing. When I try to play a radio station, after some spinning of the circle I get "Unable to play the radio station".Is this a known problem with Sonos? If so, is it something that will ever be remedied?Further investigation leads me to believe that Sonos is rendering my speaker relegated to the S1 Controller obsolete. Offering me a 30% discount on an upgrade is not something I want or should need to do. The old speaker

I have connected my Sonos ace to Sonos beam gen 2 through the app but the sound does not swap. No message on the app to say there's a problem - it appears to think there is a connection but the sound is still coming from the beam and not the ace. I have followed the instructions on the Sonos site but am I missing something?
