Hello! I got Sonos Roam 2 months ago. I connected it to my Sonos system at home, integrated with Google home and Google assistant. Worked just fine. Now I took it with myself for Easter family reunion. I wanted to listen to music via Bluetooth but the speaker cannot switch to Bluetooth at all. When pressing the powet bottom for 2 seconds I get the chime but the led is still white, also my phone, nor anyones phone nor even PC, finds it. I thought that maybe I somehow factory reset it, but when trying to connect it to my app via wifi It gets connected by after that it says I need to register it, and to do so I must factory reset it. I tried holding power for 15 secs, keeping away from charger and turning off and on. Nothing helps. How do I make it switch to Bluetooth? Sawpel

I’m looking to buy a bluetooth turntable with built-in pre-amp. I’m looking for a lower-cost solution than buying the Sonos Amp (for now), and I have a 3-part question: 1) I realize that I need to connect the turntable to a Sonos speaker with a line-in port. I’m thinking of buying an Era100 for this. But I want to make sure that I would also be able to pipe the music from the turntable throughout the whole house by grouping the Era100 with my other speakers. Can someone confirm that’s possible? 2) I have a Roam speaker. If I instead connected the turntable via Bluetooth to the Roam (instead of buying an Era100), could I also group the Roam with the other speakers in the house so I can hear the music in other rooms? 3) I have the Arc + Sub in our media room. Could I also group those into the speaker set where I’m playing music from the turntable, or is that not possible or practical? As you can probably tell, one of my priorities is to be able to easily listen to vinyl anywhere around t

I have updated my wifi and managed to get three of four SONOS speakers connected. The Play:5 will not connect to the new network.I have tried a factory reset, then adding it as a new product. My SONOS app recognizes the product and it appears as though it will successfully connect, but it will not connect to the “Play:5’s temporary network:SONOS-Awb… I get this error; “Your mobile device couldn’t connect to your Play:5.I have tried other mobile devices, with no luck. I also have tried using an ethernet cable, and it is undiscoverable.I have tried choosing the temporary wifi SONOS network within my wifi settings on my phone, with no luck (connected momentarily, then nothing). I have changed the network settings in the app. Still nothing. 

Hi, I have a Sonos roam with a Submini and I would like to pair as rear speaker 2 Sonos Era300. It will be an overkill? Thank you.

What am I doing wrong. I can not set up my roam SL. How do I connect the device to my WiFi? I don’t see the option in the app without it finding my speaker device and yet I can’t see it in my Bluetooth screen or WiFi. How do I get the speaker to connect to my home WiFi system

And attempting to mute the sound of the arc sound bar I’m not having any luck. connected via eARC HDMI PORT. I have Gone into the television settings, TV sound only, mutes the sound bar for five seconds but then the sound bar comes back on?  any suggestions?

Can I not run both the s1 and s2 apps in my household? I’m so confused. I recently bought the Roam for on the go and it won’t let me setup. I have 7-8 sonos devices from over probably 8 years and I know some are legacy and some are not. At this point, I have to figure out how to settle all that but I want my portable roam to work soon. Do I have to erase my prior Sonos life to get this done?

Hi,I have a Samsung Q70AA 65” TV and recently upgraded to ARC, Sub and ERA100 in a home theater setup. I have connected the ARC using the HDMI cable to the eARC HDMI on the TV set and ran through the normal setup process. However, now the audio is skipping out for a few seconds every few minutes which is really annoying. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,I am using Apple Music and actually I have noticed that a lot of playlists are missing in Sonos - in the native apple music app there are lot more resuts showing than in Sonos.e.g. if I search for “christmas”, then apple music gives me around 50-100 playlists as result. The same is if I search for “party”.But in Sonos i get only 10-15 as a result - this are all playlists for “christmas”: Even worse is the result on “amazon music” - there is not a playlist at all (this is the whole result page): After digging into deeper, I found out, that the result is that bad when using the “new search”. If I switch to classic, then I get this for e.g. amazon (note that the result is even longer, I just cutted it): So it seems that the new search is still missing a lot of results, or can I fix this by reindexing the search or anything else? best regardsVoodopupp

HiLooking to replace my existing Yamaha 5.1 system with an Arc.  Doing so to de-clutter the room.  I already have in-ceiling Yamaha rear speakers (wired) which I was hoping I could utilise.  From what Ive read, looks like I need to get an Arc and a Sonos Amp.  Some questions I had: Are there any known issues with using Yamaha in-ceiling rear speakers? Am I correct in assuming I need an Amp for the rears?  Any way to connect them to the soundbar directly? From a sound perspective, is it worth buying an Amp just to connect rear speakers?  Not using any other Sonos product.  Just want good surround sound. Does the Arc have google home inbuilt?  I have a dedicated good home speaker.  Was hoping  to sell the existing google home speaker and use google home via ARCAll my TV shows/Movies will be coming from a Apple TV device connected to my Samsung TV..  We mainly watch shows on Netflix and ABC iView.. Thanks 

I recently had a frustrating experience with my SONOS Roam. I took it travelling, and by mistake, when trying to turn it off, I reset it. I was not on my home network and in a hotel, and there was no way to initialize it again. I looked on help forums, and they all talked about using two devices and connecting to one device and hotspotting to another. I tried this at length (and I am comfortable with troubleshooting), and NOTHING worked. The fact that I have a Bluetooth speaker that cannot be set up and used solely as a Bluetooth speaker is so frustrating.  Why not have a setting where, out of the box, you can use it on Bluetooth alone -- I am now carrying around a paperweight, and I can do nothing until I am back at home. Please HELP!

How to connect receiver that I has now to here cds, tapes radio to a Sonos port?  Do I need to connect to the place where the wired speakers are now?

I have two Era 300s, that I have just setup as a stereo pair.  When I attempt to play a record, using the line in into the right speaker, the sound keeps cutting in and out of the left speaker.  Wired connections are solid from the preamp into the right speaker, and both have “good/excellent” wifi connections.  Any ideas on solutions, or directions to existing threads on the same issue would be much appreciated!

I have a Sonos Beam by my TV that always works and shows on the app. I have 4 Sonos One SLs that work but every few days they disappear from the app. I have tried unplugging, searching for the them when reconnecting. Restarting my router. I have followed all directions. it is now becoming so frustrating I want to throw them out. sometimes it will work and I will see “living Room, kitchen, bedroom, garage” appear so I can group together to play music. but every now and then they all disappear. Can anyone help? And yes I have tried unplugging them all together and doing individually. I have strong WiFi and never had an issue nor changed it.

Anyone else getting the issue that when Spotify gets to an advert, then it stops?you have to go into the app and pause and play and then it will continue.  Everything else is working ok and no network issues, just Spotify stopping for ads. 

My system has started randomly playing different speakers after they have all been shutdown. It may start one on a porch or it might start several. I just shutdown all music to all speakers and verified they were stopped and it randomly started one back again after a few minutes. 

I would like to set up surround sound as well as full mono for music with an existing setup if possible. I have hardwired with 12/4 gauge wire at the four corners of a rectangular pool with rock speakers  from Niles Audio Rs8si (now known as proficient audio). I have two amps and a Sonos arc (arc used as center) at the small end of pool on porch. is it possible to switch back and forth from surround sound and then mono and or stereo mode for music.  other than red black wiring only is there a better way to wire up?  when I called Proficient/Niles the senior service engineer t sent me a mapping of the wires to allow for greater dispersion with surround. but not sure if it’s compatible with Sonos amp My installer says I had to choose between mono and surround
