I have a Beam and plan on using two Era 300s to create a surround sound group for my tv setup. My question is I have an existing turntable that is playing through a Sonos Five. Am I able to connect the five through the beam and era 300s to play my turntable through the house? Or once they are setup as surround sound am I unable to do that?

Good morning, everyone.I’m hoping to get some insight from the group regarding Atmos soundbars. Specifically, how much the driver firing angles actually impact real‑world Atmos performance in a built‑in entertainment center. Quick backstory:  My wife wanted a renovation that involved removing a window and building a full wall entertainment center. I wasn’t exactly thrilled, but we compromised.  She got me to build her entertainment center, and I get to upgrade my classic entertainment setup. current Sonos setup: Playbar, One SLs, and a Gen 1 Sub.With the new entertainment center came the “need” for a new TV, so we installed a 75” Sony Bravia 9 to replace the old 950G. The cabinet opening for the TV and Playbar provides 16" of vertical clearance from the bottom (above the fireplace) to the bottom of the TV. The full cavity measures 84" wide, 56.5" tall, and 13.5" deep.Now I’m considering upgrading to the Sonos Immersive set ( Arc Ultra, Era 300’s, and Sub 4) , but here’s my concern: Wil

SONOS OneにApple Musicは連携済みです。AlexsaにApple Musicは連携済みです。SONOS Oneの音声に、Amazon AlexsaとSonos Voice Controlは連携済みです。「アレクサ、アップルミュージックでoasisを再生して」「アレクサ、アップルミュージックの音楽を止めて」等の操作が効きません。音声操作は可能でしょうか。どうすればいいでしょうか。 Moderator Edit - Translation by Google:I have already linked Apple Music to my Sonos One and Alexa.I have also set up Amazon Alexa and Sonos Voice Control for voice operations on the Sonos One.However, commands such as:"Alexa, play Oasis on Apple Music""Alexa, stop the music from Apple Music"...are not working.Is voice control possible? What should I do?

Hi, I'm trying to remove some Play 1 speakers from my system but the option is not available in the app. I can find where to remove my Beam and Era 100s but no option is available for the Play 1s. Thanks in advance for any help.

Please share any eArc hdmi splitters that worked for you. Everyone was talking about Arkana, I’ve tried it, payed 400 usd with taxes, then spent several weeks trying to fix sound interruptions, changed tons of cables, trying all recommendations, but had to give up on that one and now looking for other options.There are plenty opt of hdmi splitters on Amazon, so would be great if anyone had success with any and will recommend.Thank you!

Hi, I was considering the SONOS stands for the era 300 pair. However My ceiling is 10ft. Are these stands too tall? I currently have one sitting on a low surface and it sounds amazing. Getting a second.  Also it was recommended in their instructions to put it 8-10ft a part. I was originally hoping 4.5 ft guess this will be too short. Any advice? Should I go for the regular stands. Will I still have good immersion from Atmos Music?

I was sold a bill of goods by Sonos that I had to buy the arc to buy their Sonos ace headphones.  What a mistake.  Everyday it’s a struggle to pair the ace with the arc.  It never works until I try to push the button a dozen times before it connects.  Tonight I just spent an hour and finally gave up.  Just an awful product.  The strange thing is I vacationed in Florida for 4 months.  The headphones hooked right up to a regular tv as I never had a problem.  You turn the tv on and in 3 seconds the headphones work.  Now I’m back home with the arc and pushing that button with the audio swap is an absolute nightmare.  If you’re thinking of buying - resist and go elsewhere.

I’ve had my Beam 2 connected to the ARC port of my TCL 65S425 for a while without issues and then I broke everything and can’t fix it. The volume controls for my universal remote were really slow and didn’t always work at all, so I decided to set up the remote with the Beam over IR. Seemed to work fine for a little bit - I don’t seem to have a way to make the TV stop responding but it didn’t really matter. Then maybe just a few days in, it started resetting the volume to 15. Restarted, unplugged, etc., the TV and the Beam several times in different orders and looking through every menu I could find for help and nothing. I couldn’t find a way to undo the remote setup. Eventually I decided to do a factory reset on the Beam, and it’s still there blinking green at me like a demonic sob. It’s still in my app as ‘Not Connected’ and I don’t see a way to actually wipe it AND when I click Add Speaker or Component, nothing happens. Also I have a sub mini which now says Speaker Missing From Room

Beam turns itself.off

My home theater setup is Philips 55inch tv, Ultra Arc, sonos Sub and 2 era 100 speakers for the rear. Since the problem with the arc and apple tv working together with atmos with my 10 year old tv, Im looking for a replacement for my tv. I have had it with resetting all the time for good sound. Only…..every where I look there seem to be a problem with the Arc and the Apple TV together for using Atmos and sound in general.  Is there a recommendation for a good 4k tv where they all work together smoothly?

Originally had my Play 1 speakers running under Sonos 1 Controller.  Wanted to use my NAS instead of my local drive for storing music.  Existing Windows app doesn’t support SMB2 so I decided to install the latest version (Sonos_90.0-77070.exe).  Said my product (Play 1 speakers) were not compatible yet the website says they are.  Suggested resetting the speakers.  Did that, both are flashing green.  Every time I run the application installer it only offers me connect to existing system or learn how to never create new anything.  Connect to existing results in can’t find any products.  As such, it never actually installs the app.How do I install my speakers as if I just bought them from the store because right now, I get no such option.  It only offers connect to an existing system, which now, doesn’t exist because I reset the speakers.  Before resetting the speakers, it said no compatible products were found and to install Sonos 1 controller instead.What’s the deal?

Hi everyone,!--tgqphd|[]-->I am stuck trying to reconnect my smart home system after having it packed away for a year.

Any reason why exclusively ……………. station still won’t play on My Tuner Radio?

Good evening, I’m adding artists to my favorites in the Sonos app from Qobuz, but the artwork and names have nothing to do with the artist. What should I do?Philippe

Yes, I realize that this has been asked before, but with macOS losing Rosetta 2 with macOS 28, coming out in 2027, is there any chance of the desktop Sonos app being ported to Apple silicon?I primarily use the macOS app, and am not really looking forward to relying on the web app, since I live in an area with poor internet availability.

I have had a Sonos system since 2019.  Started with two One SL speakers and a bridge to connect a Denon receiver and Polk Audio speakers.  Over the years I’ve abandoned the bridge because it was neither reliable or easy to use.  I’ve added two more One SL’s, a Move, a Move 2, a One, and a Play, so now 8 speakers. I stream music off Apple Music.  In the past that was reliable and enjoyable.  A couple years ago Sonos updated their App and I went through several months of buffering issues.    Eventually, after several hours with phone support, we connected an Ethernet cable to one SL speaker and things sorted out.  About a month ago, my system decided buffering was preferable to playing music.  Sonos Tech support said delete the Ethernet cable and reboot speakers and mesh network.  I did, the buffering persisted. Deco support said their X55 system supports 2.4 and 5 GHz broadband.  They walked me through setting up a network that is only on 2.4 GHz and connecting all the Sonos speakers to

HI there!I just got a brand new ROAM SL from my uncle.But when tried to set up the speaker there are problems.First when put my charger on (the official charger),the charging indicator blinks red light ,no orange light and a white led next to the Sonos logo glowing,when I unplug the charger the led goes off and no matter how long I press the power button there’s nothing happen. I googled this problem it says there is something wrong with the battery.Should I just change a battery?Second,when I tired to connect to the app it said your speaker needs an update so that you can use it,but it keeps showing the error code 1016,I tried to change a different WiFi but the problem was still there.

I'm very frustrated waiting for a feature of the latest update provides to be activated, checking a couple times a day in hopes of seeing it. That got me thinking of a feature that would be nice. Can we please have a placeholder for the pending features in each update? Nothing fancy needed, even just the controller option present but faded would let us know the App update was applied and we are just waiting on the feature activation to happen for us. Appending a "Pending" or "Coming Soon" would be nice too.Maybe on the update pop-up add a line about feature activations pending? That might lower the confusion about why other users are seeing things the user can't see, even though the update pop-up says the system is fully updated.

I have a connect amp (bought in 2016) that I used to have linked to my old hi fi system that linked to my surround sound so that I couldplay vinyl through the surround sound. how do I set this up again as it doesn’t seem to now work. any advice appreciated.

Hi all. First time poster.  I have setup a stereo pair of One Gen 2’s and a sub mini in the Living Room and identified the group as ‘Living Room - Sonos’.  While Spotify on my android phone identifies the group as ‘Living Room - Sonos’ and plays music through both speakers, the app I am using (Hi-Fi Cast) only sees the group as separate devices. If I select the right speaker, sound comes out of it, and only it. Select the left speaker and the song won’t play. I have recreated the group a couple of times but still end up with the same issue. Weirdly, if I use the Spotify app on my phone, the music plays through both speakers, and if I close it and then use Hi-Fi app, while it sees the devices still as separate entities, it will play music from both speakers. As I said, Weird. The problem returns if I select the other Sonos device. A pic of the Hi-Fi devices tab is attached. I am sure there is something fundamental I am getting wrong with the setup. Appreciate advice on how this might be

Hello,I used to be able to listen to the last two weeks of archived music from KCSM on Spinitron using the “Stream What You Hear” app on Windows 10 via TuneIn.But now, for reasons I cannot divine, I can no longer do so.I have re-installed the app. No luck. I have checked the KCSM streaming URL and it is unchanged from what I originally had.I can listen to the Spinitron archive on my computer speakers. But I cannot now find a way to have that same signal route to the Sonos TuneIn--which I used to be able to do for years!I am baffled and out of ideas.Any thoughts/suggestions would be much appreciated.Thank you.Matteo

When I load a user created Apple Music playlist the order of the tracks in the playlist shown in Apple Music does not match the order of the tracks in the Sonos queue.  Not by a long shot.The playlist was sorted by Artist in Apple Music. 

How do you power on the sub? Just plug it in?

I have a surround set up using Arc and two 300’s as rears. One of them makes this plinking noise when I'm not using and the noise seems random (not every 30 seconds or minute). Any ideas?
