On the app how do you play for instance BBC Radio 2 on my play 1 called Kitchen downstairs and another radio station on my play 3 upstairs called bedroom 

Are there any brackets to mount Arc Ultra under the TV?

Hi there SONOS community !I have a question about line in on SONOS 5’s.  I have two SONOS 5’s linked as a stereo pair. The right hand has a line in from a Project turntable connected to it. Can I connect another audio device to the line in on the left hand ? My scenario is to add an old hifi that has tape and CD so I can play those media through the SONOS 5 pair. The turntable and other hifi components are at opposite sides of the room. Obviously not both playing at the same time!Thanks in advance for the advice.  Kieron 

Hi there is there is there a way I can control my Sonos soundbar too any remote control I’ve misplaced mine and now I can only use turn it up and down from the speaker itself is there a fix for this thanks ? Any help would be great 

I have 2 sonos ones in my kitchen (directly behind my living room) and would like to setup as rear surround sound. Currently, I have 2 different Sonos setups, the "Living Room" which includes a Sonos Arc and Sonos Sub, and my "Kitchen" which includes 2 Sonos Ones. When I go into the App and try to add the Sonos Ones as rear surround speakers by selecting “Set up surrounds”, it doesn't recognize the Ones and states, "Two compatible Sonos speakers are required to add surrounds". All speakers are connected to my Wi-Fi. What am I doing wrong, and how do I get the Sonos app to recognize the Sonos Ones as surround speakers?  Thank you

Hi all, I have owned for a few years now a pair on One SL and a Beam and they have been fairly good when set up as a home theatre. I recently picked up a pair of Era 100s to add to system. Can this be done and if so how? I have tried through the app and it seems I can only either have the Era 100 pair as surrounds or the pair of One SL but not both. Please help.

Ok, so at some point i decided to move my 2x one sl and beam, set up new account, made reset on all speakers, and… the hell started. First of all, no matter what i do, none of the speakers accept wifi networks, they see them, but reject connecting, one sl’s can even connect to 5g ones, but beam only seems to accept 2.4 g one, but no love on connecting, so decided to just go with ethernet, once again, app sees the speaker, accepts audio pin, then states it has issue to connect with wifi “” and … nothing, so cant tie speakers with no wifi nor lan - any ideas ? 

Hi, I’m interested in the Sonos Ace Headsets but want to make sure I can connect two of them at the same time so my better half and I can watch TV without disturbing the rest of the family? If the answer to my question is a yes, I’ll be placing an order immediately if not I’ll have to wait until that feature becomes available.Thanks!

how can I resolve this issue ? App tells me to finish the setup and when I click on it, it says not registered, when I start registration process I get this error. 

My partner is a big Sonos guy who has speakers setup around our house. He’s been talking about wanting a record player so naturally my thought was to get him one that integrates with his existing Sonos system as a gift. Problem is that I know nothing about Sonos and want to get him the right things without ruining the surprise by asking him, so here we are 🙂. A few questions if anyone could please provide some guidance like I’m 5 years old: is Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB Turntable the equivalent of a record player? there are three different “set” options (found here) but the description(s) are like a foreign language and the reviews are super confusing/contradictory… given the photos attached of what he currently has for his setup: which of the three packages do I need to get him for this to work out of the box?thank you so much!!! 

I think I’m getting close to finally connecting my main Sonos Music Library that resides on a 1TB Crucial X8 drive. After updating the speaker firmware and the Sonos S2 controller on our iMac (Sonoma OS), I was able to play music from the iMac controller but, when adding that library to the iOS app, I continually got the “Access Denied - Check User Name and Password.”With that being said, I’m assuming that I use the network path for that iMac and music folder, the user name for that iMac and, the password used to start up and access that iMac… correct? I’ve triple-checked those credentials and they seem correct. Unlike the links on a Sonos video link, I’m typing the network path thusly:  //Carols-iMac/Sonos Family Room   I’ve also seen “ \\ “ .  (As a point of clarification, Sonophone has no issue with this network path and I’m able to play my music via this method. But, it’s not ideal and not a full-featured app like Sonos’.)There’s still some discussion regarding the SMB protocol and

Hola a todos, tengo un sistema con un Arc, 2 bocinas Era 300 y 1 sub gen 3, voy a agregar un 2do sub gen 3, pero la app no lo encuentra y ya lo registre en mi sistema, solo me aparecen los otros subs de mis otros ambientes, que procedimiento me recomiendan seguir? Moderator edit:Google Translate-Hello everyone, I have a system with an Arc, 2 Era 300 speakers and 1 sub gen 3, I am going to add a 2nd sub gen 3, but the app can't find it and I have already registered it in my system, only the other subs from my other environments appear, what procedure do you recommend I follow?

Why can’t we adjust our own crossover? The Arc Ultra doesn’t hit as hard as the Sub 4. Why is the crossover set to 70 Hz?

Found my previously fine ZP90 flashing red indicating it needed  a reboot post upgrade (which I did not instigate). Rebooted it and now it’s dead. Plenty of comments going around about Sonos bricking old hardware, but nee to know if I’m missing something before considering the future. I have a mainly S1 system as it suits my needs. S1 was/is working fine on the rest of the devices, so maybe this is isolated, but this is the wired component and the rest is wireless from it. Doing the prescribed restart (hold in the mute whilst power on does nothing). LAN lights ok, but cannot connect via IP or LAN address. I’m an IT professional, so understand the network, architecture etc, so no, it’s not network related and only affects this item.  What next?

4 Sonos ports on managed switch experiencing drop outs. and If we attempt to play music in 3 zones, 1 zone will drop out.We have 4 ports that we want to play the same music through. lets call them 1,2,3,4.We cannot select all four, max 2. So if one and two are playing and you select three, 3 starts playing and 1 stops. The setup runs through a managed switch.We have checked the following two links and ensured that STP is set up correctly: https://support.sonos.com/en-gb/article/configure-stp-settings-to-work-with-sonos https://en.community.sonos.com/advanced-setups-229133/sonos-and-the-spanning-tree-protocol-16973other thoughts we have had but not yet tested: IGMP issues: more than one IGMP or no IGMP on the VLANMulticast limit on the switch set to 2? also seen other feeds that suggest running the 4 through an unmanaged switch and plugging the at  into our switch to avoid DHCP issues? 

Got the Sonos Ace when it came out. Was able to connect fine to my Arc and eventually my two Beams (Gen 1) in various rooms when they updated the software. Haven’t used my headset in a while and just tried TV Swap and it won’t work. Every time I press the connect button and it makes the searching tone, it just plays a thud sound and reconnects to Bluetooth. I updated to the most recent software. I factory reset the headphones and added them back to my account. Still no luck. Anyone else having this issue and know a fix?   Continue to be disappointed with the new and improved Sonos. Had their system for over a decade and it was simply bulletproof. For the last year it’s been nothing but connection and software issues all the time. Amazing they could screw up such a good thing. 

Hello.Devices in discussion:Playstation 5Sonos Arc Ultra + Sub Gen 3 + IKEA Symfonisk rear pairPhilips 65OLED705/12Problem statement:I have recently bought Sonos Arc Ultra. I was blown away by the Atmos sound when playing some movies on Netflix. I decided to also turn on Dolby Atmos on my PS5. Unfortunately, since then whenever I use the console and then go back to use any TV App like Netflix or HBO the sound stutters for a second every minute or so. The only way to bring it back is to unplug all HDMI devices, turn off TV for a minute and same for Arc Ultra. What happens and how can I prevent that?Desirable solution:I want to use both TV apps and PS5 without any issues, still using Dolby Atmos on PS5 and also in my movies.

Since the May app upgrade I have almost abandoned my Sonos system . Th Sonos 1 app only sees 1 of my 5 units.  I have Sonos 2 app installed on another computer in my upstairs office and that sees 2 other units, but not the one seen by the Sonos1 app. I contacted support and then spent a long time rushing up and down stairs turning things off and on, all to no avail. Is there now a fix or is all this kit destined for the skip?I have 2 x Play 1’s as a pair in one room, 2 other Play 1’s in 2 different rooms and 1 Play 3 in another room.

When connecting the headphones to the TV will the TV still play through my other Sonos speakers? My wife is hard of hearing and want to her use the headphones while we are both watching TV

Sonos arc works thru the app when I play music but when I switch to TV it doesn’t play.  Just started happening.  I was able hear Sonos both thrust and music app via Sonos now nothing on the tv. 

Hello!I’m moving into a new place that has wired speakers throughout the house. The wall plate has a 3.5mm input that uses cat5 to a panel in the basement. The speakers then go from the panel to the rest of the house. The amp has the speaker connectors to output to the speakers but I can’t do that. So my question is, Can I use a 3.5mm to speaker wire adapter? Or can I go from speaker wire to RCA to 3.5mm jack?Thanks everyone!

Hi All, My Sonos system (Arc, Sub, 2x300’s) works perfectly. No issues there. I can log in to the app, again, no problem. However...I also have a pair of Ace headphones and while they are connected to the App, I cannot enable the handover feature from the Arc because it ask me to log in again (I am logged in!) and this is just a repeating cycle that never gets to the next step. So...given the issues a lot of folks have had, I am loathe to delete the App and try to start over to fix this. Is there a fix where I do not have to reset/delete?  Cheers! 

I have a controller on my iMac from the original Sonos 1 System. Does that system still work? I ask because it seems to be blocked and when I try to connect to my existing system (with 5 speakers) it can’t find them.PS. the controller on my iPhone continues to work fine.  So - should the controller on my iMac continue to work?  

Will the Arc soundbar link to my Sonos play:5.  For example if I were to purchase the Arc sound bar could I use my play:5 as surround sound.  Would they link together?

I have a somewhat old Amp that seems to have died a few days ago. I was listening to it one evening, and clicked the play / pause button to turn it off. The next day, it was dark and wouldn’t power up or connect. I reset it with the button on the back, and the light will come on and blink white for a while, which is encouraging at first. But then it goes dark. And if you press the play / pause button it will blink red three times, then go dark again.I suspect it is a brick. Looking around the internet, it looks like sonos does not do out of warranty repairs? Just trying to figure out my options here.
