I have 2 x Sonos Play:1 s which apparently won’t connect to Apple Airplay. I like Airplay and use it with other systems. I was advised by Sonos that if I had a Sonos device that was compatible with Airplay I could group this with the Sonos Play:1s making them Airplay compatible. I have purchased a Sonos Roam SL in order to make the Play:1 airplay compatible and have grouped the 3 devices together. The result is not was expected, while the Roam SL connects well to Airplay, the Play:1s do not, they constantly connect and disconnect when steaming music, even when they are next to each other. What can be done to resolve this?

Hi everyone, Was wondering if anyone had similar issues?I bought refurbed Arc 2 months ago and it was perfect, was very impressed with the sound.Few days ago I noticed the volume level was lower and the sound especially bass was very tiny. That’s on all sources Tv, AirPlay, Apple Music etc. The Arc volume level is much lower now compared to other grouped speakers in the house. It sounds more like TV speakers than the Arc it used to. I am not sure if it happed after one of the updates. Tried to reset but even the sound when the Arc starts is much lower now and when I did last true play the test sounds were much lower as well. I also remember at the beginning the two side firing drivers used to produce quite a lot of bass but not anymore, it’s like they are just playing ambient sound now. Any thoughts? Thank you

I have experienced deteriorating performance on my system, especially bad this past week with sonos not being able to connect with spotify, and losing connection to my system … both on apple and samsung products. This has not been such an issue before. An occasional glip i can forgive, but this is getting on my nerves now 😡

I have had my Sonos system for many years and have uploaded and downloaded hundreds of songs into a sonos playlist. I find that the shuffle feature rarely shuffles the list very “deeply” and tends to play the same couple of dozen songs. Is there any way to teach the algorithms to shuffle through the list more thoroughly?

I am the main account holder, when on the sono app, when I search for a specific song, it doesn't play it, it selects artist of similar kind or same atlrtiwt but didn't song. This feature I expect if it was someone in my household sharing my account as a 2nd person but not the main account holder. Being the bill payer I expect to be able to play what I want. Any help appreciated 

So I've been an avid Pandora user for decades. Now that I've gone 100% Sonos I'm having an issue.I can't use the Pandora app and cast to my system. I've tried uninstalling Pandora. It's on the same network as Sonos. I DON'T like using Pandora through Sonos because there's not as much functionality. For example can't see song lyrics or history of what's played in the current session. I'm using all the latest Sonos products and the S2 app. Please help🤔  

The Samsung Remote suddenly stoped working (28/9/23). Worked for years, 2021 Samsung Q90 tv. Tried changing battery in remote, and factory reset Playbar without luck. Was able to change volume a few times, and also re-connect in the app. But now it’s nothing. Also tried deleting universal remote and setting it up again.  any body els experience this? 

When I connect the cable, it turns on the orange charging LED for a few seconds, about 8, then it turns off. I've already tried it with different cables and adapter

We were gone from Sept 1-22 and when we returned, all our Play Ones require us to turn the volume from the normal 30-40 to 60 or higher just to hear people talking. What happened while we were gone? Why the change? We are running the app on iPhones app version 15.8.1 and Sonos OS version S2.

I can't check out my order because always fail when I put my mobile phone number

I’m thinking about purchasing a pair of Era 100 as surrounds to operate alongside a Beam gen2 and Sub gen3.My current WiFi settings for all Sonos HT products are all fixed and working well on a 2.4ghz frequency.Will the Era 100’s communicate ok on same 2.4ghz frequency as some info suggest that surrounds need to use 5ghz.I’m using a BT Smart Hub2, Devices linked are LGC2 TV  and Sky Q box. 

It's one thing that Google Assistant is missing, but the fact is Sonos Voice is rubbish. I asked Sonos "Hey Sonos, play [Song] by [Artist] everywhere" and it said it doesn't understand. Yet in the app, you can choose to play a song 'everywhere'. It also doesn't understand "Hey Sonos, play LBC radio". Also no Spotify control with Sonos Voice. Come on Sonos, I know you’re in dispute with Google, but their assistant is so much better. You’ve got to implement this ASAP for the Era range, the current voice assistant is unusable! 

Hello,I've just changed operator (as I do every year) and I can't connect my play one to my bbox.I've separated the networks, switched to b/g but nothing works. However, this isn't the first time I've been with Bouygues.Do you have a solution?

My sonos soundbar is since recently having issue’s with heavy bass. Wondering if this can be caused by a software update, don’t think that the woofer is blown up as most of the bass sounds ok. Only when playing certain movies I get a “funky” sound which is most likely the best described as Bass distortion. 

I have 6 Sonos speakers in 4 different rooms as well as 2 units outside that I use to listen to the TV playing in the living room. After turning on the TV, I have to go the Sonos app and click on "Everywhere" in order to activate all the speakers. Each speaker is set to the volume that is best used in that space. For years after my Sonos was installed, I could tell Alexa to change the volume on the Sonos in the room I was in, and as long as the other speakers did not hear the command, they did not change volume. A while ago, after working with Sonos techs on an unrelated problem, I was no longer able to do this. When I tell Alexa to change the volume in one room, it changes all the speakers. If I am washing dishes and want to quickly change volume to hear something, I now have to dry my hands, go find my phone, open the app, get to the right location, and manually change that speaker's individual volume. I have spoken to Sonos and was told it must have been a feature that disappeared d

Hi All...hope there’s some help out there.I have had Sonos Play, moved away for a while, but back now with Era100 and Deezer as my subscribed streaming service. I have Sonos voice control (SVC) activated. SVC recognises and plays, say, The Ink Spots but will not recognise and play Slim Whitman. This is one example, there are many - it will not find Shostakovich Romance The Gadfly or Opus 97a - none of these trigger a response through Deezer, even though I have manually found the music I wanted through these keywords in the app search, and played them. What gives with this? I have a perfectly well rounded English voice, with no regional accent and am speaking clearly and close enough. I can elicit a response for Goldfrapp, Orbital, The Ink Spots etc, but not, it seems, the more rarely requested? Any thoughts?The American rejection voice is also becoming a little tedious I have to say, with today’s AI it would be nice to have a Kate Blanchett telling me to find what I want in the Sonos A

I got rid of my Gen 1 Play 5 to resolve an issue with SMB1, and once I upgraded to S2 I started getting this error.  About ready to walk away from the whole thing.  Please help me get back to a system that worked beautifully for years until last summer. 1 - Gen 2 Play 53 - Play 1’sconnecting to a QNAP NAS.  Never saw this error until I updated to S2.  I dont have any playlists on Sonos, only within Youtube music and locally on my computer within Apple Music.

HiHas anyone use two Sonos Move speaker as a stereo system?  Or seen a review of such system they can share with me?  I have a Move and am thinking about buying another one to use with it as stereo, before they are discontinued.many thanks

Beyond thrilled to receive the new Sonos Arc. True played my room and I have loudness on as well connected to LG B8 using Tidal and Spotify. Most of the sound range is phenomenal, aside from the bass. At even half volume the woofers are extremely muddy and sound terrible. Not sure if this is because I have under two hours of use but I wasn’t expecting to have to break-in the speaker. I own set of speakers next to it in the same room (KEF LS50W) and the difference is night and day. There have also been posts on Reddit regarding this issue. It is interesting given no reviewers have mentioned this issue but more than a few recipients have. Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Turning loudness off helps but it is disappointing for such a highly anticipated product. 

How do you connect to the Move 2 via line-in or by ethernet within Windows 11? I know others are using the Move 2 as their desktop/mobile speaker. The point is to get better audio quality as opposed to Bluetooth. As far as I know, there is no “Airplay” equivalent - the Sonos 2 app for Windows is complete garbage (don’t know what the hell the vision they had but it wasn’t the right direction).

Does the Move 2 support Dolby Atmos?  Can a pair of Move 2s be used as surround sound rear speaks with the Arc?

Using the S2 controller on a Windows 11 PC I can connect to Sonos Radio, Amazon Music, Spotify, and TuneIn, but not iHeartRadio, Plex, Pandora, or AccuRadio.  The ones I can’t connect to tell me “Unable to browse music” and attempts to reauthorize tell me to check the network connection.  The controller on another Windows 11 computer and all the mobile devices on the house’s LAN access all these services fine.  It’s just the one PC, which worked until recently.  I reinstalled the controller on the PC, rebooted the router and power cycled all the Sonos devices in the house and checked for software updates all to no success.  I’d welcome any ideas!
