Can I connect an iPod classic to a Sonos Era100 speaker via line in an stream to rest of speakers

I have a Sonos One connected to the System in my MBR. I’ve set a daily alarm playing radio. Worked fine till Oct 23 recently, after some update to the controller.Now this Sonos One will disappear from the system randomly, not frequently but couple times per week. There will be days where the alarm will ring but not playing the radio but just the alarm ring. I think this meant that the One wasn’t connected to the WIFI (with flashing white LED), but opening the app shows that this One is not connected to the system and I have to re-add this One. Just today, the alarm wasn’t ringing at all. I checked it and there was this green steady LED light, and when I pressed the vol the green went away and the flashing white LED, the One is not connected to the system again and I have to re-add it.I’m guessing this One lost the WIFI connection maybe in the middle of the night, but I am not sure what is wrong, cos the WIFI is working correctly (have rebooted the mesh router to troubleshoot it but can

I have a Sonos soundbar on my Panasonic smart tv plus a pair of 1speakers(I think!) in the same room and a pair in a second room.I want to add a soundbar plus speakers to a second tv in a different room. Can I do this via my existing system or does it have to be separate?Apologies for the rather dumb question but I’m totally clueless about anything tech.Regards and thanks in advance 

Sonos skill WAS  enabled in Alexa but don’t recall any account linking taking placeSo  following suggestion's found on here I have subsequently Disabled the Sonos skill and re-Enabled itThat triggers the re linking,  prompted to sign into Sonos account, now says accounts are linked closing that screen, next screen is search for device But reports “Alexa couldn’t find a new device to connect”Asks if I can control device using Sonos app -  Yes I can - it tries to connect again - fails again  and again Found the suggestion on here about changing the Sonos Play:1 name and going thru whole process again - still no joy  ( tried multiple names/times ) Any other suggestions please ? Sonos App : Ver 15:10  on Android phone running Android 11Sonos OS : S2Hardware version : 1.8.3.7-2.0I’m in the UK : so a supported region

Current setup:Sonos ArcSonos Era 300 x2 SurroundSonos Sub x2Arc is Ethernet, everything else is wirelessNvidia Shield → LG C1 Port 3 (dolby processing is off, match content is on)Sonos Arc → LG C1 Port 2 eArc enabled and passthrough bitstreamATT Fiber Router in Passthrough mode to Asus RT-AX88U and a PiHole.The system has been flawless for about 2 years now and even after the purchase of the Era 300s (used to have SL Ones) it was working fine. About 2 months ago the issue has started popping up.The issue: Randomly throughout the day (if watching for 2-3 hours, maybe occurs once) there is a full sound cutout on all my sonos devices for about 5-10 seconds. When this happens I tend to look at the status light. I see it be that standard dim white for those 5-10 seconds then it’ll turn a bright green for about 1 second then the sound comes back on all devices. This has become frustrating since sometimes its right in the middle of an important scene in a movie. Does not matter if I am watchi

Hello,My Sonos Roam (owned for almost 2 years) suddenly won’t power on even after staying on a charger (both wireless charging and with cord). I’ve tried doing the 12 second power button hold for a factory reset but it doesn’t do anything. Please help! 

I only use computer to control the S1 speaker and now it tells me that it connects to the speaker but the dialog box stays saying it doesn’t connect to my speaker.  I click under more options and choose connect to existing system and it tells me it connects.  But I can’t get past this dialog box. 

Had to trawl this forum last week setting up a Ray to work with a 2022 model LG TV but pieced together a solution from people who shared theirs.Tonight I added the TV box remote as a second remote via the app which works instantly. However, now the TV remote no longer controls the volume.  I’ve reset everything on the TV. The Sonos mobile app says the remote is already paired.  Is there a way to select and unpair remote via the app?  Losing my mind and so much time with this. Poor documentation from Sonos and poor product design by LG. 

Hey everyone, my current set up is an Era 100 with an Audio-Technica AT-LP60X-GM connected with a line in (3.5 mm cord) from the turntable to the Sonos adapter into the speaker. Sound is good, but I am only getting mono sound (right side). I am not getting stereo sound. What would I be doing wrong?Can I go line in (3.5mm cable) from the turn table right into the Sonos adapter? Or are there other cables I should be using to split the left & right, then bring them back together in the 3.5mm jack the Sonos needs? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I just bought the Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB Turntable.  Can I use a wireless Sonos home theater system to listen or will I always need a line in speaker for this product?  

Hi,I own the set mentioned above (not sure about the model of a TV but I know it can support 5.1 and Atmos as well, the TV is pretty new-a year or two max three old). I had it working for the past year.Something probably changed in my setup and 5.1 no longer works correctly, when streaming Netflix, or using any other app with 5.1/Atmos. I don’t know what or why.When using not 5.1 apps, like YouTube, I used to be able to get all surrounds to play on the same volume as my main Beam, now I am not able to do it, even though I play with volumes and settings in the app.Now my surrounds make broken sound, similiar to what is supposed to play and it’s much quieter (like 90% queiter) than Beam.Surrounds work as supposed, when playing Xbox on the same TV (with 5.1 as well). TV set to pass through all the time, Google Chromecast as well. Something is off and I can’t find what.Many thanks for your help.

I have a Beam (gen 1) and two play:1’s running on S2. I have acquired a connect (gen 1), which obviously only works on S1. The reason I got a connect is to integrate a vinyl player into the system. I was mis sold the connect on eBay by someone claiming it was S2 compatible, but alas upon receiving it, it is the older generation.My question is; I know I can operate two separate systems on the same network, but can I split the same speakers across the two systems? For example; run the beam and play 1’s on s2 as my home theatre set up, but then use the same pair of play 1’s with the connect on s1, as speakers for the vinyl?thanks 

Hello, I’ve been reading and it sounds like this is possible, but I want to double-check. In a condo where living and dining rooms are essentially one large space, I have a Beam wired to my Samsung smart TV in the “Living Room” and two new Era 100’s in a stereo pair assigned to the “Dining Room” in Sonos.I can stream music via AirPlay to the Living Room or Dining Room and group them. But now I’d like to try adding the Era 100’s to the Beam as surrounds.Is this dual purpose setup possible? (From what I’ve read it should be.) Will the surrounds introduce delay to the TV audio? Is it better to keep them separate and use different speakers as surrounds?I also have a Sonos One gen 2 and Sonos One SL stereo pair in the bedroom, but that’s a separate room.

How can I connect two phones to my sonos speakers?

I upgraded my eero system to an eero 6 mesh system that I need to use to get music through my old, brick building.  I have 9 Sonos speakers 7 are all playing one thing, 2 won’t play - or if they play it shuts the others off.  They all used to work together - now they do not.Suggestions?  I’ve tried everything!

Sometimes I get the Sonos chime instead of the Spotify playlist that I’ve scheduled with the alarm. How do I fix this? 

When are you going to enable the front speaker for the ERA 300 when used as surrounds?

I have a number of sonos speakers and voice control works perfectly. However, I have a pair of non-sonos speakers in my living room (fed by a port in another part of the house) and I want to voice control the system from the living room. Is there a way to do this. I have an Amazon echo dot in the living room but I can’t get it to transmit voice commands to the Sonos system. If I could get that to work it would solve the problem. I don’t want to buy a sonos speaker just for the microphone/voice control. Is there any type of device that could “talk” to sonos? As it is I have to walk into another part of the house to get Sonos to respond.

We’d been noticing for a few months that we’d go to use our Dinis speakers and on our app on either phone… some features were greyed out meaning Dinis would nt work. This was intermittent though. Then we got a new bt router and we can’t connect up the play 5 or 1…it gets as far as asking for password after it’s done tge chime but then no matter if I put in my wireless password /key or the admin password for hub manager or my sonos password … none will work and it just says can’t connect I know classed as old now but it seems to be crazy to have to replace these as when working sound great! can anyone help please?   

I have an s1 system with two connect amps. I just purchased a move 2. My understanding is that I need to remove the s1 devices first, using the s1 app. Support docs say to go to settings - system tools - remove products. This option does not exist on either my android or iPad s1 apps.  When I open the Sonos app (the newer one) I get stuck in an endless loop of trying to connect to my s1 products.Any ideas on what to do?edit: sorry, I just read that I need to factory reset the s1 products.

I am connected to sonos beam gen 2 and two sonos one speakers as surround. All works fine untill I turn off the TV and on again and then I don't get sound from my sonos. Only from my TV speakers. ARC is turned on on my TV settings and after diagnostics my TV can't find issues with the HDMI cable connect to sonos beam. When I change sources I can see sonos images on the TV but my remote control change the TV volumn not the sonos. Also on the mobile app i am changing to TV input and i am changing the volume up and down but it is not showing this changes on the TV screen and TV still play from it's speakers. After turn off beam gen 2 from power cable and connect again it connects automatically and all works fine untill I switch off the TV again. That happen when no other devices are connected to other HDMI ports. Any solutions? I changed 3 new HDMI cables so far and no difference  

Good evening,  I'm in the process of having a media wall installed and I have purchased 2 x era100, 1 x mini sub and 1 x 2nd gen  beam. Now my question is, is there an optimal way to set these up? bearing in mind my room or the layout to use better term will be offset. Let me add some texture.  Double doors central lead in to a long narrow-ish room. (6mtr x 3mtr). Straight in front of these double doors will be the centre of the media wall. The media wall will be 2.4mtr in width. Here comes the issue (Or hopefully no issue if you kind folk can advise me). I have an L shaped sofa to the left of the double doors facing the media wall. Then a snuggle chair to the right of the doors facing media wall. My natural first instinct is to wall mount the era100 to either side of the double doors with the beam under the tv and mini sun to one side of that.  I would appreciate any help on this.  Thanks  

I have an Arc connected to my tv, along with a Sub and 2 Era 100s. The sound is very good when I’m playing music over AirPlay, through all of the speakers. When I’m playing tv sound, the only speaker playing sound is the Arc. Nothing from the Era 100s. What did I do wrong?

As long as I downgrade the Sonos Move in the S2 app can I use a Sonos Move on the same system with a Sonos Play 3?
