I hired an av installer to setup my house that we were remolding.  In one of the rooms I told him that I wanted to setup a surround sound home theater.  He suggested and installed 4 x ceiling speakers and two sonos amps.  It has been a few months and I never felt like it sounded correctly, so I found an iOS app that would play test surround sound by playing to each speaker.  After doing this I discovered that the rear speakers play when sound is playing to all the speakers, but will not only play the left rear or right rear.  I don’t know if this is possible to have two amps in a surround sound setup.  If it is possible I haven’t been able to figure out to set this up.  Currently I have an eARC connection going from my TV to the front amp.  When I add the rear amp for surround sound it still plays the left/right rear sounds through the left/right front speakers.  This makes me feel like it isn’t possible to setup two amp in a surround sounds and that my best option is to add soundbar (

Hi, I've spent a fair while searching and can't find a solution to this.I've just purchased a Sonos 100 for listening to music from tidal at home.In the android app I go to add the tidal music service, but tidal isn't in the list.I've tried casting from the tidal app to the speaker, but this doesn't work. My googling says this is because I need to add the tidal music service first? Is anyone able to help please?  

Hi,I am looking at purchasing a Sonos Amp as well as 2 pairs of Sonos in-ceiling speakers. I want to use 2 ceiling speakers (1 pair) outdoors for outdoor entertainment, and the other 2 speakers (1 pair) in the lounge room for watching TV as well as listening to music, all connected into the one amp. I would like to be able to turn off the outdoor speakers while using the indoor ones and vice-versa.   I have done some searching and found that a cost effective alternative (instead of buying another amp) is to buy an impedance matching switch. I don’t want a volume controlling switch just an on and off one is fine. Will this one do the job? Monoprice 4-Channel Speaker Selector https://amzn.asia/d/cQ6XXRsI would also like to know if I am still able to use all of the amps smart features, e.g volume control through the app, Trueplay, and connect another Sonos product such as the Arc Soundbar to the amp to play sound through ceiling speakers and sound-bar simultaneously If someone has any sli

When will Sonos be fixing the playlists on the android? They work fine on the Desktop app: Sonos Playlists on Desktop App work fine.No Playlists on Android. Not here either.Nor here. 

Hi,I recently bought the Era 100. It all works fine except for being able to play music on voice command.Alexa responds to other voice commands like alarms, the weather, accessing radio stations via Tune In etc. But when I say "Alexa, play [so and so] on Spotify" Alexa responds by saying "Here is [so and so] on Spotify". But nothing after that happens.I also own a Sonos One and it worked fine. But ever since I bought the Era 100 (I had to update the Sonos app to setup) now the Sonos One doesn't work for music requests either.I've disabled the skill in the Alexa app and reinstalled, reinstalled sonos app, added alexa voice service but nothing helps. Any help would be appreciated. 

I have 4 speakers in the ceiling in a theater room (2 front and 2 rear).  I just got an Arc for the TV.  I have connected the 2 front speakers (left and right) to one connect:amp and the 2 rear speakers (left and right) to another connect:amp. I currently do not have wired ethernet available in that room. 2 questions: Can I set it up to use the Arc and the 2 front and 2 rear speakers? I am confused on the ethernet connect need.  The online directions say “The Sonos home theater speaker is wired to the Connect:Amp with an Ethernet cable and another Sonos product is wired to the router.”  Does that mean I can take an ethernet cable from the Arc to  an unmanaged switch and then 2 ethernet cables from the switch (1 to each) to connect:amps.  Then I can take a totally different connect:amp (not associated with the theater room) and connect it to the router by ethernet?Sorry for the crazy question.  I thought I would just be able to do it all wirelessly when I set it up.

Hi , we have a beam and two sonos ones.  All have been working for months with our tv sky box and playing music through Spotify , but for some reason they have dropped off the Internet and won't recognise and connect anymore .  We've turned the router and the sonos products on and off several times but to no avail. Any ideas and help.much appreciated.  Maddie

Hi guys, just bought the Sonos One (gen2) recently. I just wanna know if there’s a way to use it as my laptop main speaker. Please I really need one for my Lap. Many thanks. 

Hey all…So I have a wild problem. the second I activate the turnable a green light flashes once on the era 100 that does not have the direct line-in, and the speaker disconnects from the system. There is a pre-amp (one listed as recommended by Sonos), and a sub (unaffected). I tried twice to resolve over the phone, and even ordered a new era 100, yet the problem persists. listening to streaming music doesn’t cause this issue. tried ungrouping the pair, resets, and the usual fixes.  Wifi connection is “excellent”speakers are four feet apartrouter is brand new and close, not much in between it and speakersthere are no devices that should cause interference  anyone have any ideas or experienced this as well ?

The volume seems too loud when playing from Apple  music , Tidal etc in the Sonos app. Anyone else experience this?

Dear Support,I bought my Sonos Roam a few days ago, and it has been a huge disappointment.So far, I have only used it at home on wifi, but it regularly drops the connection after 1-2 hours, which can only be solved by rebooting and reconnecting. Tried the factory reset but the error persists.In addition, I have a Beam on LAN and a Symfonisk light on WI-Fi, they work relatively flawlessly.Any tips to troubleshoot the problem? Thanks,David

I have a pretty common and simple system with a Beam (Gen2) and an LG OLED C2. Connected using the supplied HDMI Cable, “eARC Support” is enabled, and “Digital Sound Output” is set to “Pass Through” in WebOS.Unfortunately, I’m experiencing a lip sync delay of about 200ms where to audio plays before the video in movies/tv shows with Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 audio streams. Dolby Atmos (over DD+) seems to be okay, however. I’m using the internal TV Apps for streaming. It doesn’t matter which ones I use (Netflix, YouTube, Plex) I always get the same delay.When I disable eArc the delay seems to be gone but I lose Atmos support on the Xbox Series X.What I don’t want to do is manually set the delay using the Sonos App (which by the way +5 wouldn’t be enough) every time I watch a DD or DD+ movie or disable/enable eARC every time I use the Xbox. I was under the impression delay issues would be solved by some sort of lip sync correction layer in the HDMI signal spec of HDMI-e

Hi there, I have a Sonos Amp and Outdoor speaker setup. The Amp is in a lift space, and not that accessible. Everything works great through the Sonos app.I would like the option to play music through line in, without hardwiring to the Amp. I've seen a wireless transmitter (the type used for Subs/ surrounds) and wondered whether this would work?One receiver plugged into the Amp and the transmitter plugged into an iPad, for example?Any support or other ideas would be appreciated.The real desire is to play videos from YouTube through the Sonos speakers with no lag.Thanks,David.
