Hi, I'm trying to purchase through the sonos.com website but when trying to checkout it keeps saying "enter a valid postcode A99 9AA",. This is the only postcode that works.My poscode is a valid uk postcode.This happens on both paypal and normal checkout.I'm on the uk page so its not a country issue.Any help?

I have a new ERA 300.  It doesn’t pair with an older Move.   Does the new Play(?)100 pair with the 300? 

HelloI own a Beam Gen2; Sub-mini; and two Era300 speakers.Whilst I am reasonably technical I'm not a sound guy, I'm very much plug an play, and want an out of box no messing about experience. The Era300s are not ideally placed as stated on the Sonos website, they are placed in real life scenarios, due to my room they had to be wall mounted 1.4m high on the rear wall, directly opposite the tv and soundbar, yes the tv isn't at 42inches height but there are practical considerations, you can have everything. I follow the trueplay instruction video, yet I feel the system is not balanced, sounds good but missing that final touch do you not only have to walk around the seated area but alcoves and everywhere etc. I realise the sound bar atmos function is virtual, so with the era300s do I have to do do extra configuration, as I said Im not a sound tech engineer, just and end user. Besides things should not be complex right?   This trueplay has been run a few times yet 

Hi there, I’m so completely frustrated. For no apparent reason, my mini sub, and 2 x ONE SL’s have stopped working. All three speakers have a solid white light on but are now not showing in my “Living Room” system. The Arc Ultra is working. (I have an arc ultra, a mini sub and two ONE SL’s). I’ve tried a factory reset on the mini sub and it connected it to the wifi successfully and then at the final hurdle I get a message “Sub not found. Make sure your sub is powered on and connected to wifi” - which it is. During set up I got another saying “you may not see your speaker in your system and if so disconnect the power and reconnect power to finish set up” - I’ve tried that and NOTHING happens at which point my only option seemingly is to start the whole process again. I’m going around in circles.  Cheers.

I am trying to connect my Audio Technica AT-LP60XBT turntable via bluetooth to my Sonos Roam2 (which works fine) but when I try to group it with my ARC sytem or my Play1 the bluetooth connection between the turntable and Roam2 seems to disconnect, even though the BT blue light still shows it is connection. Prior to grouping the Roam2 with either the ARC or Play1, the BT connection is working and the Roam2 is playing the audio from the turntable. Am I doing something wrong to get the turntable signal to come through the Roam2 to get to the ARC and Play1 (grouping all speakers together) or is this something that the Sonos 2 app cannot do?

I have a Ray with Apple TV, everything works ok except the audio choices. I have the optical connected and airplay works as well. The issue I have is I want the audio to default to the optical, the Apple TV seems to default to the Airplay which is the only way I can have volume control, when I switch back to the optical I loose volume control. The Sono’s app works fine and I can control the ray with other Sono’a in my home. In short is there a way to only have optical audio and control it with the Apple Remote. 

I currently have a Playbar, two Play:1s as surrounds , a Sub Gen 1 and another Play:1 in my wife's studio. If I replaced the Playbar with an Arc Ultra I believe I would have to replace the Play:1 surrounds but not the Sub. But would I still be bale to use the Play1 in my wife's studio and place the replaced surround Play:1s in other rooms of the house? 

Hi!I owned a Arc + 2xEra 300 + Sub gen 3 setup and it was overwhelming on cinematic performance and average on music - I was missing the middle lows in music performance (which are very present on the demo sounds of sonos, so it's likely a DSP thing not hardware).As Arc Ultra promised better bass due to the new sound force technology, I made the upgrade and... well... I am not satisfied at all. Everything sounds the exact same as before. I did trueplay tuning (tried all three variants), EQ setup etc etc.I get even a little better performance turning the sub off in the mid los but then the deep subs are missing of course.I don't get why my SONOS system is performing so bad on mid-lows but only on music... All is perfect on movies... If sonos would only give us more control over music EQ :( That being said, I was asked by ​@Corry P to create a diagnostic. I created even three and made some troubleshooting:First try: Old system - everything as usual. I made a diagnostic with it playing a

This has been happening ​​​​​for years. Different phones, desktop or mobile, different zone players, doesn't matter. Ever since one of the updates it has been a constant issue.Today for example I have a bunch of backup alarms set. The first one goes off and I go to access them to turn off the rest and the app shoes no alarms. I have many times set, and many that should be showing as off. … and same thing with setting the alarms… There should be ton of times already there to turn on but it shows none yet when trying to add one it says no more alarms can be set because I’m maxed, which is probably true. I expected to see a ton of complaints on the board when I searched where someone said do xyz so it doesnt happen but seems to be unique to something I am doing or my set up?​​

The "sound height" adjustment does not work on Tidal, unlike on Apple Music.

I would like Sonos to work together with Apple Home and Apple Home Pod consistently.Had I known about Sonos at the time, I would not have purchased Home Pod, which in terms of audio experience is no more than a toy for children. However, since I have it, it can be used to enhance Sonos in one room. I have had only intermittent success in making this happen. Only once was I able to add Sonos as a device to Apple Home. In the meantime, I had to reconfigure Apple Home and Home Pod. Since then, every day is trying to get the music on both Home Pod and Sonos and crossing my fingers. When I try to add Sonos as a device in Apple Home, it does appear as something to add, but then I get the message that Airplay cannot connect to it (nonsense - it can and does as I see elsewhere) and that I need to check the Wi-Fi connection on my iPhone (also nonsense). I know for a fact that Sonos has a strong connection to my Wi-Fi. The problem seems to be centered on Apple Home. Even with this problem, Siri

I have a Sonos 300 that works well with my PC.I have a Victrola Stream that used to work with the Era 300 but now doesn’t.The Victrola app finds and lists the Sonos speaker correctly but there is no output.

Having less faith in Sonos, after upgrade bricked units, apple airplay preference in upgrade leading to disasters for others. S1 / S2 terror. Sonos in need of income, so the income from intune being base for Sonos Radio, leads to radio programmes being broardcast add free from national stations with own add on, are chopped up, broken disturbed on purpose.Result: you find the national program via intune and voila, Sonos are back in add income.Remark, system has worked perfect for years, all but for Sonos software downgrades, are unchanged.I as customer are deeply disapointed., am I the only one seeing the plot.Rgds Per Høeg.

I'm using Apple Music with a Sonos setup consisting of Arc + Sub + two Era 300 speakers.When I play the following album, playback consistently halts mid-track, and the Sonos system becomes completely unresponsive—as if it's frozen. After a short while, it recovers as though it had rebooted.https://music.apple.com/jp/album/tchaikovsky-the-sleeping-beauty-childrens-album-piano/1825381287(Tchaikovsky: The Sleeping Beauty; Children's Album; Piano Sonata, Op. 80; Theme and Variations, Op. 19/6 – performed by Danil Trifonov)If you're using Apple Music, could you try playing this album from the beginning and see if the issue occurs?(not via AirPlay, but directly from Sonos App) In my case, the problem happens 100% of the time, although the timing varies. It usually doesn't take long to reproduce.There have been reports in this community of similar issues with Sonos + Apple Music—such as tracks skipping, audio dropouts, or playback stopping unexpectedly—and I believe this may be related.From m

Hi All, I have a Sonos play bar, sub,  2 play 5 second gen for surrounds stereo setup for my entertainment area. In the last month one of the 2 play 5s (out of warranty sadly) stopped connecting to the system. When I plug it into Ethernet it works but unfortunately that is not an option for my space.I sent customer service a diagnostic and was told it’s a failed WiFi card. They basically said I was SoL and my options are to get a 30 percent discount on one new 5 and buy an additional new 5 because that’s the only way I could have two surrounds. Kind of a hard answer to hear if I have two very expensive play 5 speakers, one of which works fine and the other of which only the WiFi is malfunctioning (apparently a problem that has been experienced by quite a few play 5 second gen owners).Does anyone have other ideas of solutions? Has anyone ever effectively replaced the WiFi card on one of these? Does anyone know a good source of refurbished play 5 gen 2s? Any help would be appreciated. Si

Hi Guys,  I cannot seem to get my 2 Sonos Play ones to connect to with my beam to make a surround experience. I can connect the 2 speakers as single or as a stereo pair but when I click on the beam and add the 2 Sonos ones as surrounds they are coming up saying “not connected” I have tried to factory test both Sonos ones and the beam and I am still getting the same issue  I have attached a screen shot below 

Hi. I have a Beam, Sub Mini and two Play1 for surround sound.  All speakers work with music and appear as one group. However during TV playback, the two Play1 speakers just have a light static noise. Sub is working, as is the Beam. TV playback is showing as 5.1 surround. Any ideas? Thanks 👍 

I have a question about the Sonos Sound Bar app on my Smart TV. (My Sonos app on mobile phone works as expected and enables me to control all my audio settings. My question does not relate to the sonos app on my mobile phone). As part of setting up my sonos arc ultra and sub gen 4 with my smart TV, a mysterious "Sonos Sound Bar" app has appeared on my SmartTV. This app is grey with a white speaker image on it. Clicking on the app reveals no functionality at all: all I am shown is a series of weird black and white lines on the screen. The images look semi artistic and look like attempts to draw different types of sound waves. The images change every few seconds. But other than this, the app does nothing. And I am unable to delete it from my SmartTV Does anyone else have the same experience? What is this app for? It seems completely superfluous and bizarre. 

I am setting up a new living room theater setup. TV is TCL 98 inch QM7K with a ARc Ultra soundbar, a 4th gen sub and 2 Era 300 speakers.  TV is 15 feet from back wall.  Problem is it is a L shaped couch that is 144 inches back and 114 inch other side with no space behind couch for the 2 Era 300 speakers.  AI suggested I put them on the left arm and right arm of the couch and the right one was suggested I have it face the TV like the one on the left?  Also need to decide if I am ok using side tables 24 niches high or do I need speaker stands.  Here is a layout drawing. Would love your thoughts.Thanks so much!AJ 

I currently have an arc with 2 x 1sl’s for surrounds in my lounge and it works fine with the usual tv apps and my Virgin streaming box but when I use the Firestick the some bounces from arc to SL1 surround’s and back

Should I use my play bar soundbar as a rear surround or play 1 speakers 

HelloI am a long time user of the Sonos AMP (gen 2), connected to vintage (aka old) Kef Coda 70s.Sounds punchy, detailed & engaging!My question:Apple TV supports 24/48 kHz stereo sound via HDMI eARC.The Sonos Amp’s connector is HDMI ARC only.Does the Sonos AMP receive/play 24/48 kHz stereo via HDMI ARC, or is converted to 16/44.1 kHz (CD quality), or something else?There doesn’t seem to be a definitive answer for this that I can see?(I’m aware Apple Music Lossless 24/48 is available via the S2 app, but sometimes I prefer using the Apple Music interface on Apple TV)  Thanks in advance
