Can someone tell me what exactly needs to be taken into account when it comes to the distance related to setting the surround sound?The distance between the Era 300 and the listener's ear, or the distance between the Era's external speaker and a nearby reflective surface?The Eras are located on the wall on both sides of the sofa on the wall, facing forward towards the TV and there is a maximum depth of 10-15 cm between the listener and the speakers. The distance between the TV (77”) and the viewing position is approx. 3 m. I know it's not perfect, but you have to adapt to the existing conditions. Both are at an equal distance, 1.3 m to the right and left of the student's position. The one on the left is 40 cm and the one on the right is 60 cm from the furniture, which means the reflecting surface.During movies, I have the feeling that the one on the left sounds louder than the one on the right. Sometimes I don't even hear the right side, but then it speaks when I listen to it. (No, it'

I keep having this notification. I wish Sonos had more setting options in the app. More features more functionality. This however has been going on for a month with seemingly no fix. 

I just noticed that my Sonos app says that my Era 100 surrounds are in an unsupported orientation with no further instructions. They are inverted and mounted near the ceiling.  Seem to work fine.  Is this a known issue?

i have two Sonia Era 300s as surrounds they are mounted up side down and seem to be working fine but I just noticed this coming up when going into the app settings anyone know what’s going on?  

Feel like this is a topic that’s seems like it’s been brought up a thousand times prior to the alarm being reinstated, but I swear alarms used to have timers? Ok let me explain myself I had an alarm set for 5am in the kitchen so that when I came down around 5.05am my radio was playing this alarm timed out at 6am and switched off then at 7am another alarm came on playing the radio my partner likes for her to come down to at 7.05 she would leave for work and the “alarm” would cease at 8 and remain off until it went off again at around 5pm before I returned. Do Sonos plan to reinstate this feature? Is it there and I just let can’t see it?

I'm trying to connect the Sonos app (version 2.0) to set up a used Sonos Play:5, but I keep getting a Wi-Fi password error. I even created a new SSID without a password, but the same error appears. I also tried using my mobile hotspot with a simple password and even without one, but I still get the error message:"We couldn’t connect to [Wi-Fi network]. Make sure you’re using the right Wi-Fi and password, then try again."Any suggestions?

I have a few Sonos play ones and playbar in my bedroom.  I have the status lights disabled but when the volume is set to zero, the lights come back on. (Hitting mute doesn’t cause the issue). This is a bit annoying because I don’t want the lights on at all, has anyone else experienced this issue?  

The screen feature is gone and I don’t know how to get it back

Somewhat of a beginner here with devices. I have amps in my business and want to connect music directly to the amps via sd card. Is there a device professionals recommend or an alternative to a playlist on sd cards? We have connectivitu issues from time to time so my whole business looses the music when that happens. Thank you for the help!

As with most folks here, I’m mystified as to how poorly software update works.   I’ve had Sonos equip for almost 10 years and it’s been 10 years of pain, with software updates constantly failing.      

I have the Sonos App for Mac, it indicates 16.4.2., is there an update coming?  The mini always displays on top of everything else, the main app is too large, and nothing displays on the menu bar.  You cannot control the Sonos system like this.  Also, the keys on my keyboard will not control the sound, selection or allow it to pause.  This is not a good app and I am hoping as a result of the investment I have in Sonos equipment you fix this gross application/malfunction.  Please let me know the to expect an update….

I gave up on a Roam that had intermittent battery issues and would stop playing after two hours. Can I return it to Sonos for repair & resale? I purchased a Roam 2 and I want to dispose of the Roam.

About a week ago, I started getting access errors when trying to play from my music library on my Synology NAS. I am running all S2 Sonos components, and I’ve made no SW changes to the NAS in well over a month. I’ve been successfully running my music library for several years, save for the disaster last spring when Sonos made the major app change. It’s been running fine since the new app stabilized.I deleted the library in Sonos using the PC desktop app, restarted the app, and then set up a new Music Library. The library was correctly discovered, including music I added last week. I can browse to the music I want to play in the Sonos app on the PC desktop and multiple android devices. However, when I try to play the music I can browse to, I receive an "access error." This applies to every album I have tried (several dozen at this point). How can Sonos have access errors to the very music Sonos just discovered?I have confirmed that I can access the SMB share from two phones and a tablet

Recently, Beam will not play live radio stations unless I use the controls on the device or press play on app with phone. This is new- for years I’ve been asking Alexa to play a live npr station (usually defaults to Tunein or Iheart). Now, Alexa confirms my prompt and says “playing…” but then nothing happens. Also- this is *not* happening on my older Sonos One- still works as usual. I tried removing Alexa, re-installing it, all apps are up to date, re-booting. Help! Any suggestions would be appreciated! 

Hi. My gen 1 beam (and sub) is connected to a LG television. When I turn off the TV (using the remote or asking Alexa) the beam goes silent. After about 10 seconds the beam plays 5 to 8 seconds of TV sound.This is not a major problem but it can be off-putting when I turn off the TV and leave the room only to hear a few seconds of speaking or music. Any thoughts or ideas?

Sonos app + Google assistant + Telmore/yousee musik. Kan godt forbinde Telmore samt YouSee som musik tjeneste i Sonos appen. Men er det ikke muligt at tilføje stemmestyrring, så man kan starte musik samt skrue op og ned?

I use a number of Alexa speakers around the house and have speaker groups set up. Alexa doesn’t have a portable device so I bought the Sonos Roam but It can’t be added to a speaker group like the everywhere group. Does anybody have a way to get this going perhaps a work around? 

Why is Sonos still out in Silverlake, Los Angeles? I am not able to access the system at all, I’ve unplugged and rebooted several times, it’s been days. System is totally down.  I’m seriously considering getting rid of all my Sonos products. Never had this kind of trouble before. Been a loyal customer for well over ten years. 

system is dead,  I type in a search and it just spins.

I hve multiple SONOs 1, 5 and a 7   Is there any way they can connect to a Starlink networks as it uses WPA3 Network Security Protocol?

As per the title description. My Play:1 won't show up in the app.... Either in the system settings menu or on the main play menu. All was fine and it was working fine until a couple of days ago when it randomly dropped out. And despite going through (several) factory resets and then connecting back via the app as a new product AND despite the app saying that connection is successful it won't show up. Funnily enough it's the Sonos which is closet to my router. About a realistic 6 feet. And it's worked perfectly until a couple of days ago like I say. And nothing else within my control has changed. Does anyone have any ideas? 

I have a lot of compilation albums.  When I go to pick out an album, every compilation album lists each song as an album!  This makes browsing by album impractical.  Please fix this.  I have seen in other postings that this is a known problem, but it is not scheduled to be fixed!  Please elevate the importance of fixing this and get it on the list.

Hey,currently have a Move 2. Always have issues when it’s connected to the wifi. music sounds like a badly scratched cd and keeps skipping. I have a complete home theatre set up with Arc sound Bar 2x era300 and sub. All brought this year and I don’t have this issue. Have good connection to wifi. Bluetooth to Move2 works fine it’s only when it connected to wifi. Turning off and on my phone sometimes work. But I shouldn’t have to every time I want to listen to music. Any suggestions? Could this be a faulty Move2?  Thanks. 

So, with the launch of the new Google TV box, I couldn't help but upgrade. However, has anyone experienced audio sync being well out?  And seemingly the need for a minus correction option within the Arc sync correction settings? I don't seem to be able to add the topic tag of #GooglevTV
