Hello everyone,I have a Xgimi Elfin projector with the Android operating system, which only has one HDMI input. When I connect my Sonos Beam 2, I can hear perfectly and even in Dolby Atmos. Now the problem is that I have a PS5, and if I want to connect it to the projector, I wouldn't be able to connect the Sonos Beam 2 at the same time. Is there any option to connect both the PS5 and the Sonos Beam 2?Thank youBest regards

Hi everyone, Looking for some help confirming whether I can achieve a setup that might work well, or not! We recently renovated and I put 4 Sonos ceiling speakers in the open plan kitchen. We have a TV at one end and a corner sofa, and 2 of the 4 ceiling speakers are above and just behind the sofa.  Can I use 2 of the 4 to make up a 5.1 setup with a sub and soundbar with the TV? Would there be any issues or trade offs doing this, if it is possible? Thanks in advance for any guidance! 

My phone connects to my roam over Bluetooth, but no audio plays from the speaker. I have tried forgetting the device and re-pairing the devices, but the same issue persists. The roam works fine over WiFi on my home Sonos network, but the Bluetooth functionality is useless?

Can't raise or lower the volume on the Sonos arc with the TCL remote control. What could be wrong?

Hi, I have a Sonos One SL which has decided to stop working and is unable to connect to the WiFi. For the last 2 hours I gave gone through the  factory resetting, listening to it chime with no connection. Final messages vary from there is a router issue and is not compatible with 5G. I haven’t changed internet providers so not sure what has happened. Also error 1001 was displayed when clicking on options!  I have a Sonos Player 1 which works fine and I’ve checked the WiFi connection on Sonos and it says good!  Any ideas or what the problem is and how to solve it.  Thanks from a very frustrated user!!

Hi,Yesterday I got my two Era 100’s as a addition to my Sonos ARC. I use the 100’s as rears but ever since the Sonos app says it’s only playing Dolby Digital 5.1 and not Dolby Atmos (of course only DA content).Before, without the 100’s and only the ARC, it did play movies and music in Dolby Atmos. Does my ARC still produces Dolby Atmos sound?Thank you!

I would like to play all the albums of one artist from Apple Music.  I can’t figure out any way to do this in the Sonos Controller on either the Mac or the iPhone.  I can do this via Alexa.  I can do this via the Apple Music app/iTunes via AIrplay.  Why can’t this be done via the Sonos Controller?

I’m trying to get my Google assistant to play well with my Sonos. I have a Nest Mini and a Symfonisk bookcase speaker in my home office. I’ve linked Sonos to my google assistant. I’ve placed the symfonisk in the same room as my nest mini, and I’ve set the symfonisk to be the default device for playback of music. The problem I have is that I will regularily be told that “Sorry, that mode isn’t available” for quite a few commands. For instance “Play music by Birdy” or “Play music by Birdy on Spotify” always fails with this message. Other commands such as “Play music by Linkin Park” allows my nest to start the music on my symfonisk, however, sometimes it will tell me something went wrong, despite the fact that nothing went wrong, and music is indeed playing. Other commands such as volume up and down almost always seem to work. Personally, I’m hoping sonos starts selling a small usb-powered microphone that people can place in rooms with Sonos devices that don’t have a microphone. Then I co

Help me! I buy an expensive sonos port for listen my vynils with sonos play:1. Do you think that the sonos Pot is compatible with sonos play:1? Thank you.

My Roam Power On/Off button is depressed and can not snap back to the default setting.  As a result I can not push in the button to pair, turn on or off and then not use. Contacted the Sonos support desk and they said I broke the button and since out of warranty there was nothing they could do or provide any advice. Any similar experience or advice.  Thanks

Spotify shuffle has three states: not shuffled, shuffled, smart shuffled. The third option will let Spotify recommend and add songs to your queue and playlist. However, Sonos only have two. When enabling shuffling on Sonos, it will actually enable smart shuffle on Spotify, leading to unwanted songs in my playlist.A current workaround is just disconnect and revoke spotify approval to sonos. I think it’s the problem from Sonos side.

I am looking to replace an old analogue hi-fi with a new wireless up-to-date system. I would like to have 3 sets of Era100 speakers across 3 different rooms in the house. I would like to play CDs, records, stream music and connect to the TV. I have been told the Amp only has one line-in so I wouldn’t be able to connect both a CD player and a turntable? Can anyone recommend what I would need to be able to connect everything? Thanks!

Whether I use the Sonos app to listen to Pandora or cast to the Sonos Arc from the Pandora app, the AutoPlay feature does not work.  However, AutoPlay does work from the Pandora app if I use Bluetooth to my car or other non-Sonos speakers.  I emailed and discussed this issue with Sonos customer support and received the reply below - basically, they know this is a problem and have no get-well date.  My questions:Has this been fixed yet (I cancelled my Pandora Premium subscription so I cannot check if it works)? Does anyone else have this problem or an update?Responses from Sonos Support Specialist (Aug 2023):“Unfortunately, I am unable to provide any additional information or a timeline as to when you can expect to see this feature available when listening via Sonos.”“They [engineering] have confirmed that the AutoPlay feature is not supported when listening from a Sonos device, regardless of whether you use the Pandora app or the Sonos app.”

Hi everyone,  I have a massed a bunch of speakers mainly SL1’s and a few ARC’s and subs. My question is naming the speakers and rooms. I have a room say “Garage” and in it is 4 SL1’s one each corner of the room and a sub and a arc.  How would you go about naming them all and setting up the room? I’m just getting confused a bit on the differences of the hierarchy.Then the subs seem to disappear from the main app is that because it’s already added to the room? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Here is my issue: I have a Sonos system with 9 speakers. I have two active wifis: Wifi A and wifi B. The system/speakers are connected to wifi A but I would like to connect them to wifi B. How to do this? How to the change the wifi for all speakers / system?I managed to switch a few speakers to wifi B by going to the network settings in S2 app but it is not working for all speakers. There is a help: https://support.sonos.com/en/article/connect-sonos-to-a-new-router-or-wi-fi-network However this is not working because I am not getting the message: Unable to connect… because all my speakers are connect to some wifi.Also if I connect my Android phone to wifi B and try to add speakers to my system with S2 app, the app is not finding the speakers.

In blue tooth the system is beautiful.  I can’t seem to get roam to connect with the playbar for watching tv. 

I am using the Sonos App on and XR10 iPhone with all software up to date for both the phone and the app. I follow the initial directions to set up my move speaker, The speaker and the phone see each other and connect, the app then says lets connect to my WiFi network. It is the correct one and I confirm it is the same one my phone is logged into. It asks me for the password. I type it in. After that it takes a few minutes and then I see the message that the set up was successful but it may not show on my system menu (well considering my system menu is grey and I can’t get to it no great surprise)it tells me if I can’t see it to press the power button for 5 seconds, and then turn it back on. I do this and now I have messages in settings that say unable to find my sonos systemIf I go to my internet provider app and look at devices, it shows my speaker is in fact connected to my router. I also check groups as I set up a group specific for my Sonos devices called Sonos sound systemIf in th

Thanks a lot

Hi, I bought my elderly father the Sonos One SL and was able to set it up on his wifi. Then, he got a new iphone and the speaker stopped working. Over the phone, I couldn’t walk him through setting it back up (we even tried a factory reset), so I had him call Sonos. They told him his router, Spectrum SAX1V1R, is the culprit, with the only solution being to wire the speaker. And that is definitely not an acceptable solution. I’m seeing that SAX1V1S is incompatible with Sonos - and that router is the sister model to his, so I have to assume the router is the problem. But, I’m mystified how I was ever able to set it up successfully. Tomorrow, we’ll try to enable/disable UPnP, but is there anything else we can try? He’s not too keen on calling Spectrum and asking them to replace his router. If the router is the problem, I’m rather surprised that Sonos doesn’t support it. This router has been on the market since 2022 and is commonly installed by the second-largest internet provider in the U

I have a turntable with a pre-amp and want to play this through my already existing Sonos system (speakers around the house).  I called Sonos and they said I have to hard wire the turntable to a Sonos speaker with a line-in port, however I don't want/need another speaker.  Can I use the Port or Amp to connect the turntable to the rest of my Sonos speakers? 

Hello,We recently purchased a Hisense U8K and currently have it connected to our Beam 2.  Unfortunately, when streaming Netflix content, it only streams as Stereo PCM. Edit: broadcast OTA tv is also only stereo pcm.  We have audio output set to passthrough on the TV. Playback settings on my Netflix account are set to high. The Netflix content has the 5.1 audio option selected.  The Beam is plugged into the earc port, not sure what else to try at this point.  Does anyone have any advice on what I’m doing wrong here?  Update: after some more googling, a Reddit user mentioned that playing YouTube content will cause a glitch with the audio getting stuck at stereo PCM. A restart solved the issue until you use YouTube again.
