Is it possible to add non-Sonos speakers to my IPad via the headphone jack and have them all play??I have a set of Bose computer speakers that I want to add and play while the Sonos speakers are playing via WiFiThanks

Originally, I just had an Arc for the TV and one Era 300 for my record player. I loved this and would play records every day. Well, I finally upgraded and got a Sub Mini and a second Era 300 for the full Atmos surround sound. At the end of the set up, I was notified I would NOT be able to use line in on my first Era 300 (to play records). WHAT?! Why?! What can I do? Any workarounds or advice? Thank you.

Once you factory reset SONOS speaker, how do you remove from SONOS app S2Have factory reset SONOS speakers that I want to sell or give to family. Factory reset seems to have worked.Why are those factory reset speakers still showing on the SONOS S2 app for me?The factory reset speakers are showing as Not connecected and a spanner tool icon adjacent to each room/speaker. WHen you press on the icon it wants you to either reconnect the speaker (yes) or (not now)Is there a way to sort this, as the factory reset and removed speakers I want removed from the app, as have new SONOS speakers that I want to install and integrate in the rooms that I have factory reset and removed the old speakers from.Any help or info would be most appreciated, many thanks 

The answer to this feels like it should be obvious but…If i create a playlist on a streaming service like Apple or Spotify, but then also save it as a Sonos Playlist, does that count against the 70-item My Sonos limit? It would seem logical that the answer is yes. But if I don’t save it as a Sonos playlist, and access it only thru the streaming service menu, then it would not. Do I have that right? Sorry to seem dim. 

As says in the title. I have 2 Play:1 and a Play:3.Replugging the system doesn’t help. Only reboot. Router is the TP-link AX6000, Sonos is on 2.4 MHz, Laptops and phones are on 5 MHz. It happened before once in a while, but now it happens every day. Any suggestions?

Hi all, today I installed the Arc, sub mini and two era 300 speakers as rear speakers. I finish everything and while watching tv and listening to music from the tv, I realized the rear speaker is right centered, meaning it’s more louder than the left one, even when I do a surround test demo on YouTube. Can this be related to true play? Anyone else had this problem?

I am fairly new to Sonos.Many years ago I bought a 2nd hand Gen 1 Play one but didnt get on with it.It failed to work well with Alexa and it got turned off and that was it.But fast forward a few years and I thought I should really make use of this and dug it out and used it on the S1 app. I liked the sound so much better than my Alexa’s A few years further on I bought an Era 300Wow is that good. But I had lots of problems with the apps originally as all of a sudden my S2 app would find my Play 1 and start playing stuff that I had not asked for. I think that has been cured now by software updates. But my S1 has been unused for 6 months or more and I would like to bring it back in to use Since all of this I also bought an Arc and when funds allow would love another Era 300 to make them in to my rear speakers. I have seen I can connect the Play 1 to the S2 app. That is great but shame the Play 5s you cannot as I have seen those being sold really cheaply. So is there anything I can do with

I have an original PlayBar that is hardwired to the net work. I’m using S2 as a controller. When I’m streaming music (Amazon or Spotify) it will intermittently disconnect. This happened initially when I was running the PlayBar on Wi-Fi and hoped that hard wiring it with it fix the issue. All other wireless speakers (newer than the Playbar) do not have this issue. I have re-authorized both Amazon and Spotify with out any luck.  There is never any interruption in TV audio.  I am using Eero Pro model 8010001 Wi-Fi router. I am guessing it’s the older Wi-Fi radio in the PlayBar?  Any thoughts on fixing this issue?

Hi everyone, I will buy 3 Sonos One SLs and set them up in 3 different rooms. I plan to connect each One SL to the Switch using an Ethernet cable.Can I use the S2 App on Desktop (also connected to Ethernet) to control all 3 Speakers? Because I don't want to control them through Wifi. Please give me some advice,Thanks everyone 

We have 2 era 300 speakers in one room, with a dining and living area. So sometimes I would like to use the dining device as a solo device and sometimes I would like to have a stereo experience in the room. How can I easily switch between a stereo set and a solo set in one room?

Bonjour,Je possède une Beam gen 2 et une One SL.Lors de l’écoute de la TV, je n’utilise que la Beam, c’est OK.Mais lorsque j’utilise Spotify, je souhaiterais que la musique soit diffusée sur les deux enceintes en même temps. Je peux le faire en choisissant une première enceninte, puis en allant dans “regrouper les pièces” et en choisissant l’autre enceinte.Ça fonctionne, mais mon souci est qu’il faut que je refasse cette manip à chaque fois.J’aimerais que ces deux enceintes restent par défaut  dans Spotify (pas pour la TV)Comment faire ? Merci d’avance

Buenas tardes a todos.Tengo una barra Bean y recientemente he añadido un One SL con la idea de añadir un segundo más adelante.Tengo la Bean conectada a la TV por HDMI ARC y cuando subo el volumen desde el mando, solo le afecta a Bean y no sube en One SL. ¿ Como puedo solucionar esto sin tener que estar entrando en la aplicación de SONOS continuamente??

When I’m inside the Sonos App and browsing Apple Music playlists, sometimes randomly it begins to scroll towards the top at max speed. I can’t accurately reproduce it, but it happens alot. I’ve recorded a video of the issue: VideoIt happens at 0:07 - 1:05 - 2:04Anyone else experienced this?

What is the battery life on the Sonos One and Era 100?

Good day,We are trying to setup multiple Sonos Systems in a hotel complex.

After the last Sonos 15.10 update I lost the ability to play Dolby Atmos on Disney + My audio system is:Beam Gen 2 2x Sonos One SL  ( for surrounds )I did a factory reset to all of my units - soundbar and speakers.Nothing changed with my Disney +Nothing changed with my TV settings Moderator edit: changed “Digital” to “Atmos” for accuracy

When I go into the Sonos S2 controller app on my Ipad or Iphone, there are a lot of occasions where the Sonos Roam just does not show up at all, even after turning it back off and on again. I can see some of the other Sonos devices but not the Roam. I’ve also noticed the power button has a mind of it’s own, sometimes when I press it nothing happens, sometimes it comes on, sometimes I keep my finger on the button it might come on, then other times it might not and I have to plug it into the power supply to get it to come on. I just find this device so hit and miss and inconsistent. 

I recently upgraded my router with spectrum to their smart router 6e.Since the router change i keep losing connection to my speakers it will not show up in my app when i click on system.Seems like i have to reboot my router unplug all my speakers to get them all back. But i dont want to keep doing this.I have read some forums that people are having trouble with the new spectrum router and the sonos system.If this is true can you recommend a router that works best with Sonos 

I have got a Beam and Play:1 in my living room. Have got other Sonos speakers in other room but no speaker with line in. Want to get a turntable and looking into alternatives.Sonos Port have got an autoplay alternative, and if I understand it correctly, should automatically be able to play the turntable sound to a Sonos group when the turntable starts to play.Era 100 has got a line in possibility and is quite cheaper than Port. However, as I already have other speakers in my living room the Era 100 will never be used to play anything. Will it be able to autoplay the music like the Port or it will play on it self and I then need to group it with living room-group?

Hi there, I am thinking of buying a pair of oneSL’s to use as surround sound for my TV. I already have a Beam and wondering if the pair of one SL’s will work with the Beam or connect to the Beam etc to act as surround sound?If anyone else has any help or suggestions if something else works better. I am a Noob

This is really getting to me know it’s been on going for months,  Whenever I play the 2 paired up kitchen speakers there’s a delay when using the volume and also when changing tracks, it only happened on my kitchen speakers.if I play my kitchen speakers with the playbar and use the volume the playbar works fine but there’s still a delay with the kitchen speakers. It makes no difference if I hardwire my connect which is the only one pretty near the router for sonosnet or I just use WiFi I have a play one upstairs which is the farthest from the router but that is perfect, it’s just the ones in the kitchen that this happens on. ive reset everything many times, unplugged, etc but stil a slow response on those speakers. They also relatively near the router too. So frustrating, Sonos problem or router problem god knows. I was convinced it was a poor quality Ethernet cable so I’ve just bought a better one but it’s made no difference at all 🤦🏼

Hi , I have followed instructions on iTunes but don’t seem to be able to pair my two Sonia one speakers to my new internet provider . Any help gratefully received . Thanks 

Hello forum. New SONOS user here. Also new to HDMI ARC. Sorry if dumb question.I have: TV (w/HDMI ARC), Xbox, non-SONOS passive speakers.Can I buy a Sonos AMP, connect it to TV HDMI ARC, connect Xbox to TV HDMI (different input), connect speakers to Sonos Amp, and still get sound out from the Xbox to the passive (non TV) speakers? Not sure how HDMI ARC works. Thanks...

I have two Bluetooth audio transmitters which I use to transm an analog hifi system to my Sonos Era300 stereo pair. They are the generic M6 and RT-B6 transmitters. Everything used to work just fine until recently when any audio from them stopped being output by the Sonos speakers.These days the devices still connect just fine, the connection tone plays and the blue LED lights steadily and in the app it shows the device as being connected, there's just no sound at all.The Era300s still output audio from my mobile phones just fine when connected via BT. Also the audio from the transmitters comes through just fine when I connect them to other non-Sonos speakers. It seems to be an issue just between the audio transmitters and the Sonos speakers only.Has anyone else had this issue recently? Any fixes known for it?

Does anyone know if the popping sound with the base of the Sonos one will be solved? I read all the community messages but there is no solution. A replace seems not to fix the issue since I also had that and you guys too. Indeed, true play seems to increase it but still without it I have the issue when played base heavy songs. This is a nightmare because the sound of Sonos is amazing but they seem not to be able to fix this..
