I have an Arc Ultra sound bar and I'm thinking about In-wall speakers for the rear. I have power available, so can I go without the amp and just connect them to my Arc Ultra through WiFi? 

After coming home from a month long vacation, my Sonos system shows it’s not connected. This has happened before. I purchased and used NordVPN. Last time I used ExpressedVPN. Every speaker shows not connected except for Move & Move 2, which connects and playing. I disconnected vpn on my iPhone and iPad when we got home today. All of my speakers should show up?

As of Saturday 11-1-25 no BBC Radio station works on SonosNot in Sonos Radio Not in Tunein on SonosA commenter to a post of mine on Reddit referenced an article that has NO DATE on the BBC Souns  website Changes to BBC Radio on TuneInHowever Sonos Radio and TuneIn on Sonos is not mentioned Only Alexa + Sonos In the article about limiting BBC Sounds to UK Residents there is this statementIn addition, listening to BBC audio programming on non-BBC platforms will not be affected by this change.=============WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE a SONOS EMPLOYEE TO RESEARCH THIS AND REPLY AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON. =============I just cannot believe this… 

Which eligible upgrade items receive a 30% off upgrade credit? I checked all my items, and they receive a 15%, upgrade credit, despite some being from 2015. You would think that any item that can no longer receive updates would be a candidate. I realize that the blast email sent out said “up to a 30% upgrade credit”. Just wondering how old, or which items specifically, meet the criteria for the 30% upgrade credit. Thank you.

HelloIs there any way of streaming music directly from my phone to Sonos Amp?I've looked at:a usb c to RCA cable with DAC from my phone to the Ampa usb c to DAC and then from DAC to AmpAnd a Bluetooth receiver to RCA plugged into the Amp Not sure which one will give me the best results and whether they'd work.Any thoughts and help appreciated.Thanks 

Our speaker (Sonos S18) stopped working So we did a factory reset and it still didn’t do anything.  I reconnected it to the Sonos app and it shows in the app.The speaker has  been unplugged for almost 2 weeks when we plugged it in, the white light is on, but we do not get any sound or any response from it.  

Whatever I do, I seem to get random surround speaker dropouts.These last a few seconds, occurring maybe every few minutes - whether I’m on TV audio or Sonos Sound System Radio which I assume rules out any TV related issues.I’m running an Arc Ultra with a Gen 3 sub and two Ones for surround. The TV Is a 5 year old LG.  Having started with a totally wireless setup, I’m currently trying the Ultra, the sub and the TV hardwired to the router, which is only about 3-4 metres from the Ones. All software is showing as updated. And I’ve lost count of the reboots performed.So, what can I try next?  Is it somehow an unresolved wifi issue between the Arc and the others, or could it be a gremlin in the actual Ultra, or…?I’m stumped, frustrated and right out of ideas! Any suggestions much appreciated.Thanks all. 

I am trying to do an outdoor set up for a projector. The equipment id like to use is:projectorscreenroku stickMove2 x 2Roam2 x 2 i cannot get the projector or Roku to connect to Sonos system. I purchased the amp, thinking that would solve the problem, alone with an hdmi audio extractor, but the audio still played through the projector.  Any tips??  

I’m having a super frustrating issue with my Era 300s stereo paired to a Sub Mini. Every time I AirPlay from my phone, I get the spinning wheel followed by an “Unable to connect to [room]” error. If I tap the speaker again, it connects instantly and after that, it reconnects fine until the next day when the problem repeats. Here’s what I’ve tried with no lasting fix:Rebooting my phone, router, and modem Hard resetting the speakers and the app Swapping routers (ISP issued router > Linksys Velop > Eero Pro 6E) Setting DHCP reservations Calling Sonos support (they just suggested another reset) The weird part is no other AirPlay 2 devices on my network have this problem (HomePods, Apple TVs, LG TV, JBL soundbar) and it’s not isolated to my phone either because I can reproduce this issue on all iOS and macOS devices in the house. It’s not the end of the world, but waiting 20–30 seconds every day to stream music adds up to a very frustrating experience. And it’s just so annoying that e

Hi there,Just acquired a SONOS ACE. Great so far. Except when I tried to connect it to my TV settings. I have a Samsung the Frame 2022. Apparently my new ACE isn’t compatible with my “old” 2014 PlayBar... Very sad. But worth, I don’t see how to connect ACE directly to my recent TV The Frame… anyone knows how to solve that?

Bonjour,J'aimerai acheter une platine vinyle Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB, mais est-ce possible de la connecter avec mon système existant sans avheter une nouvelle enceinte.

I have two speakers that play one and one Sonos One.Thanks in advance.

Just bought a ERA300 and set it up an hour ago. Usually I listen to music from Spotify but I also have made a few playlist with own produced music, imported to my iPhone as mp3 files. I create a playlist in Spotify on my computer with these files and when I connect my iPhone to the computer it synchronizes the iPhone with the changes I made, the playlist with local files pops up in the iPhone as well. But now I have tried both the “normal” way to listen to these local files from the iPhone via ERA300 connected to WIFI which not worked, and I did not expect it to work either.Then I pushed the small “bluetooth connect” button on the back of ERA300 and connected my iPhone via bluetooth. It still refused to play my mp3 files, when I click on them in Spotify on my iPhone absolutely nothing happens. My thoughts on this is that maybe the WIFI still is connected to ERA300, and this might be the reason that it does not work? Can I stop ERA300 from beeing connected to the WIFI and use it as a si

I have a surround sound system.  Every day, although music still plays the system disappears form the app and I go through the network update routine.  This is getting so regular that it is more than a nuisance.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  Thanks.

I currently use a Sonos Arc setup with two Sonos Subs in the same room, and the improvement in bass distribution is fantastic. However, in larger rooms or more acoustically challenging environments, the ability to add a third (or even fourth) Sub would be extremely valuable.I’d love to see Sonos expand the current limitation and allow more than two Subs in a single zone. This would open up new possibilities for advanced home theater setups and professional installations.Is this something Sonos is considering for future updates? I know many users with larger spaces would benefit from this flexibility.

I have an issue with Sonos skipping ONLY when playing songs from my digital music library.I am at my wits end and ready to scrap Sonos after a year of frustration and troubleshooting.Until last fall, my home library (80 GB of mp3s) played just fine. Suddenly (sometime between October and November 2024), songs would play about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way through and then skip to the next, sometimes it would play just a few seconds. Sometimes it just stops playing altogether. It will be fine for a few songs and then all of a sudden start skipping. It seems to get worse, skipping sooner and more often (until I get annoyed and turn it off). It ONLY affects playing songs from my iTunes music library. There have been no other issues with any other service, including Sonos Radio, Amazon, Spotify; they all play just fine.My system includes 2 x Play:5, 2 x Play:3, Play:1, Sonos Move. I removed the Sonos Bridge during troubleshooting.I have Sonos S1 Controller installed in Win 11 Home (i7-8700 CPU@ 3.

After the last update, my Sub G3 that I use with my ARC now sounds weaker and I have to increase the volume of the sub from the application when before I didn't even have to do it. The worst part is that if I turn off the Sub G3, the ARC sounds with more bass than the Sub itself.

I am heavily invested in Sonos, but I’ve just about had enough with it. I have probably spent in total several weeks of my life trying to fix random issues with it.The latest issue I have, I bought an Arc Ultra and 2 Era 300s to go in my lounge to replace an existing arc and 2 One SLs. They would not connect, lots of issues, hours on the phone to support (which by the way I’m STILL waiting to hear back from with a solution!). After a bit of Copilot help, I think i fixed the issue, which was to enable IGMP on my Draytek Vigour router. I thought I might have finally resolved the issue. However, this in turn has caused another issue, which is to stop a pair of Fives (and a Sub) set up in a stereo pair from working.One of the Fives connects and plays, but the other constantly shows as an issue annd no longer connected along with the Sub. If i play music on the one which is connected, the other one will randomly play along with the sub, then cut out, then play, then cut out. Then the whole

I recently purchased the in line  3.5mm headphone to usb-c adaptor so could connect my headphones to the Apple 16 iPhone. However, it does not work. The sound just plays on the phone. Have I purchased the wrong adaptor

Pandora always skips. I have a pandora app on my iphone and it plays perfectly there, but on sonos it plays 2-3 songs, gives an error and stops. Is anything wrong with sonos?

Well it has happened again.  Tunein will not work with sonos.  I have been having the problem for about a week now.  This happened about a year ago also.  Anytime I try to connect to any tune in station or podcast I get commercials on a loop. Deleting account, reathorizing does nothing.Same old sonos,  same old garbage !!

Hi Sonos,I’m experiencing the same issue that user CarlDemus mentioned with the Sonos Arc.I honestly didn’t expect this kind of sound quality concern from Sonos. Compared to my 65" Samsung TV speakers, the Arc’s sound comes across as thin. I really noticed the difference when I compared it side-by-side with my Bose Smart Soundbar 700. The Bose was connected using an optical cable, and the Sonos Arc through HDMI eARC, so I could switch between them instantly.To be honest, the difference is significant. At 40% volume on the Bose and 75% on the Sonos Arc, the Bose still sounds fuller and richer. It makes me wonder if my Sonos Arc might be defective. One night, I turned off the Arc and continued watching using the TV’s built-in speakers — and the TV sounded louder and more present. That was extremely disappointing, especially after seeing so many positive reviews online.At this point, I’m frustrated and unsure if this is a unit issue or a general sound profile characteristic of the Arc. An

I went to add a new speaker to my Sonos app today, this tells me I need to update the appThe new app update on iOS is only available to iOS 17 and above which my iPhone X doesn't supportI just bought an era100 and cannot add it to the app because the app is forcing an update to allow me to add a speaker - the not now button simply cancels the add speaker option.this is absolute bull, so now Sonos require me to get a new phone to add a speaker to their app? im sure I'm not the only person affected but probably one of the first since most won't notice in day to day use right now, but this is bull
