Hi, my Sonos-App on iOS shows the following under Settings → Switch SystemSonos System (1) [5 Rooms] Sonos System (2) [5 Rooms]So if i switch between the systems, nothing obviously changes in the app. If run “Forget System” in the app and “Join an existing system”, it shows “Multiple Systems found” and then lists all my Era 100s and Arc Ultra in System one system, and my 2 Sonos One SLs in another system. When i join any of them, my app is like before (i.e. i see all rooms and speakers and can control them)If they are split, some things can be only done by actively switching the systems, for example if i want to unpair or pair my One SLs into a Stereo set, that only works if i switch to Sonos System (2) (which contains only the One SLs i believe).I already tried factory resetting one of the two One SL and before re-adding it to a system and i made sure i’m in Sonos System (1) before adding the One SL, however, after forgetting the system and rejoining, it still shows them listed in Son

I’m moving from my current house which has a number of ceiling speakers connected to Sonos Connect Amps, which I intend to leave for the new owner. How do I leave these products and how does the new owner connect to them?

So the replacement battery is still OUT of stock??Is it ever going to available again?Has anyone purchased a generic version?

Hi there, I have a Foxel iQ4 box, a Sony KD-49X8000H and a Sonos Beam (gen 2) soundbar. I currently have the Beam connected to the TV using the HDMI-ARC output. This configuration appears to work well, but I’m interested in getting the best performance from my system.Q1. Is this the best way to conect the soundbar to the TV?Q2. I have the option of sending audio from the TV to the soundbar in either PCM or compressed Dolby format. Which is the best option to use for the Beam to optimize sound quality?Thanks, Andrew

We have two devices in adjacent rooms…… and Need to change the wake-up Word on one of them. Found several older threads stating that this wasn‘t possible.Is this still the case today? 

Hi everyone,I recently purchased a Hisense Canvas 65 Frame TV during the Black Friday sales, it was a great deal! However, I’m now trying to figure out if it will work with my Sonos home theater setup to get Dolby Atmos sound streaming.Here’s my setup:Hisense Canvas 65 (being shipped) Sonos Beam (Gen 2) Era 100s (as surrounds) Mini SubI don’t plan to connect any external devices (like a gaming console or Blu-ray player) to the TV or the sound bar, I stream content directly from the TV apps (Netflix, Apple TV, etc.)When I checked the specs for my new TV,  it has two built-in speakers and it says the surround sound supported is DTS Virtual:X and not Dolby Atmos. If I conenct through eARC, will my sonos equipment enable Dolby Atmos content? I’m getting mixed answers online - some people talk about audio passthrough and connecting devices straigh to the sound bar, the Dolby Website says the eARC connection should do it - but does not say if the TV's surround compatibility matters, etc.Can

Sonos Location PossibilitiesHi there Sonos folks,I just purchased 2 era 300’s to accompany a Arc Ultra, but I’m having trouble figuring out the best placement and angle. In the photo there is a representation of a couch which will be facing the TV (we are replacing this couch with a U shaped couch). The room is a bit tricky because it’s vaulted in a unique way, my guess would be for the red circles I would want it facing down, but I’m not sure if it would work well. The couch is relatively close to that wall as well, probably 4 feet? It seems like the downward facing driver wouldn’t hit your ears at the right angle? I believe I read that the upside down orientation is now supported via true play and Atmos content, but would love confirmation. Would blue even be a realistic option? Any other ways to do this? Thank you so much for the help!

I have , Optoma HD146X  projector and it has  output Audio  (stero) 3.5 mm jack how to connect to sonos arc ultra sound bar... 

HelloI cannot see any recent threads on this but about 10 days ago my alarms have just stopped working altogether. have tried setting an hour before, radio, Sonos chime, set playlist etc but nothing seems to work. The time comes and goes and no music whatsoever from the Sonos. So frustrating as this used to be perfect before all the problems. Then the set timings had to be an hour before but it was at least functional. Now nothing

Hi! I have a playbase and a new house. I have a router and I first connected the playbase to the network generated by the router. Then I installed a mesh network in the house because the router did not cover the whole thing. Now I am resetting the playbase to set it up with the mesh network. However, in the setup it only offers to connect the playbase to the old network generatesd by the router. The app offers to connect to another network and it shows the neighbours networkw but not my mesh network.i first had this problem with my other sonos products (one and symfonisk) but then they connected to my mesh network. I can only use the mesh network because it is the only one covering the whole house and I have sonos «all over». How can I connect the playbase? Also tried to type in the mesh network name and enter password manually but no luck.

Hi Sonos Community, I’m running into a persistent issue with my setup and would appreciate any advice. Here’s my current setup:• Sonos Arc (Ultra): Hardwired via Ethernet, WiFi disabled.• Sub (Gen 4): Also hardwired via Ethernet.• Two Era 300s: Configured as rear speakers, currently connected via WiFi. I’m experiencing consistent stuttering or audio skipping from the Era 300s, which is frustrating. Here’s some additional context:1. WiFi Setup: I have a robust whole-home UniFi system with excellent signal strength throughout the house, including the living room.2. Troubleshooting Steps:• Re-enabled WiFi on the Arc while keeping it connected via Ethernet, but the issue persists.• Ensured no interference from other devices or sources. I’ve ordered the Ethernet dongles to hardwire the Era 300s, but I was hoping to avoid additional cables and keep them wireless if possible. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Are there any recommendations for further troubleshooting or adjustments to th

We have 6 original Sonos play 3 speakers;2 original play 1 speakers; a Boost;  2 soundbars; 2 base speakersand a Move portable  speaker. The eight are identified  as 4 rooms.     ON the Sonos app  all of the rooms have disappeared, the only one visible is the Move.Any idea what's  up? 

Why remote went work on been further than 3feet!

We’ve moved house and got all products up except Sonos 5. I got this on via Ethernet to the router but as soon as I move it off Ethernet is says no connection 

Hi all, brand new convert to Sonos speakers and very very happy with the sound and build quality of them. Couple of issues though, one being the Alexa volume, which i ended up disabling and sticking to our old echo dot.  Second was the incredible faff getting themset up as a pair ! After much googling i discovered that my BT hub was the problem? And switching off 5ghz solved it and they are now happily paired. Question is can i switch 5ghz back in without causing issues? mark. 

how to delete failed arc ultra setup attempt from app?

My Sonos Beam Gen2 volume operates perfectly from the app, but when I try to use my TV remote I get an echo.I've gone to the audio settings on the TV and attempted to switch from TV speakers to audio system, but it instantly switches itself back, displaying a message that says: “Audio system is unavailable. Switching audio to TV speakers.”Am I overlooking another kind of setting?

Hello. I just set up my new Sub Mini, paired with 2 older Play 1s I have had for years, and I must say I am not at all impressed. I can tell NO difference whatsoever with the Sub Mini set at the neutral equalizer setting, and only know it works when I change that setting upwards of +8 or more.Any thoughts? I’m really disappointed, as I was excited to add a sub woofer to my music system. (I use my Sonos system for music only, not as TV surround sound.) Maybe the Sub Mini needs better speakers than the Play 1s to notice the effect?I’m on the verge of returning the Sub Mini, so any thoughts would be appreciated before I do so.Thanks,

Pair of symphonik, worked fine.  One speaker power got unplugged for a week or so, plugged it back in, now only left speaker works.  Diagnostics show the pair is active and both speakers are connected with strong signal.  Tried to unpair, but the android app would not let me.  Figured I would try the windows app.  Windows app required an upgrade.  Meanwhile Sonos radio is streaming out of the left speaker only during all of this.  Windows app starts upgrading and lo and behold both speakers are working in proper stereo!  Upgrade taking a couple of minutes and finally says COMPLETE….at which time, the right speaker dropped out again and I am back to where I started.  What is going on here and how do I fix it?

I have a Playbar, Sub Gen 1 and two Play:1's, my 5.1 surround is gorgeous, the Playbar however is technically obsolete. I do not know if replacing the Playbar with a Sonos Arc will be worth its salt, apart from the fact that I get Atmos. I get airplay through my Apple TV and I have a subscription on Apple Music, so no problem with that. My TV, however, does not support Atmos, but Dolby Vision is splendid.

So I have the following speakers and am trying how to best configure what I have to get the most out of the system:(1) Beam Playbar (3) Sonos One SL Speakers (1) Sonos Play:1 SpeakerI Currently have two of the One SL speakers in the back of the room facing the TV in an elevated position and they are set up as surround system (Left and Right) with the beam playbar (Rear Surrounds). I would like to set the other two speakers up in the corners adjacent to the TV and facing the listener. The TV is mounted on the wall in center of the room. I am not sure I can pair the One SL and Play:1 speaker so currently they are just additional speakers that I have to manually control the volume in the app which is annoying. If I need to discard the play:1 speaker should I purchase a refurbished or used One SL speaker to get the configuration I am looking for or go another route? Really tired of having to maually adjust volumes for each speaker and would much rather control everything with one volume ad

Hi Sonos Community,I decided to return a Sonos item within the 30 day policy and Sonos quickly emailed back an MBG Reference Number for my return and asked me to use the Return Shipping Label which would be provided in a separate email.I have patiently waited for the Return Shipping Label email and made several phone calls to the Sonos Staff to please send it to me. I have been kindly treated by the staff and reassured that it would be coming very soon and yet I am still waiting.Does anyone know how why I can have Sonos provide me with the Return Shipping Label in a timely manner?ThanksNTch

I created a developer account on 24 October 2024, and the developer dashboard still says “Your registration is being analyzed by our team, please wait.”. There are no other options on the page. It has remained this way since I registered. I created a developer support ticket on 30 October, but there has been no acknowledgement or reply to my ticket. I added more comments asking for a reply to the ticket on 4 Nov and 3 Dec, but there has still been no reply or acknowledgement of the ticket. Does anyone monitor or reply to developer support tickets? How long am I expected to wait for my registration to be “analyzed”? This seems like an extraordinary amount of time with no response. My company has many clients we’d like to integrate with Sonos but I don’t seem to be able to proceed with anything yet.

I have a Move speaker in my multi-room system but the audio keeps dropping out constantly. Few milliseconds dropouts every 15-20s. I have tried switching the channel but it doesn’t fix the issue. WiFi is strong in every room but Move keeps acting up. I use turntable as source hooked to Amp and all other speakers (Arc, Playbar, Play:1 x2, One x4, Sub x2) work flawlessly.
