I don't know what happened, but suddenly I can barely hear the sound coming from my speakers. Until recently, I could perfectly hear the sound with my volume set around level 20. Now, I have to set the volume level set to 70+ to get the same quality. No, no hearing issues (past or present)...and it's not the "Loudness" nor "Night" options. Has this happened to anyone else?  Grim

I have an LG UK6090PUA TV connected to a Gen 2 Beam, along with a Gen 3 Sub and two One SLs for surrounds. The setup sounds great for movies and TV and also for music played through the Sonos app. Music played through the TV, however, sounds downright awful. Like really, really bad — totally unlistenable, which is a real shame because I have a great music video collection that I would love to have playing in the background when hosting company.I’ve downloaded a bunch of open-license music videos from the internet and extracted the audio for listening only, and I’ve got both the MOV video and MP3 audio versions in my media library. It’s the same exact audio stream for both the videos and the audio files (16-bit 44.1kHz stereo), and having the same audio stream in both formats provides a clear example of just how stark the contrast is.A song played through the Sonos app on my phone sounds great, with all speakers playing at appropriate volume levels and the stereo signal split appropriat

Hi. I‘m about to buy a Sonos Five and record player. I have a trusty Play3 that’s regularly used. Once I get the Five I’m not sure what to do with the Play3 other than use it in another room.Can the Play3 be used as part of the record player/Five system or is that pointless?ThanksAlan

Our arc volume has suddenly decided to slide up to max and it can only be held at a lower place by sliding it back on the phone screen and holding it there. Take your thumb off and it slides right back up. On the tv screen the + sign is jiggling up and down. Turning the system off then back on hasn’t helped. Adjusting by tapping the arc sound bar volume controls directly doesn’t hold it either.Has this happened to anyone else?

Dear all,I have a Sonos system composed by a Sonos One, an One SL and a Roam.Since a couple of weeks I’m not able to use the system anymore.I run the app from my smartphone (Samsung S21) and everything is fine, but after a couple of minutes the system disapper from the app and I cannot control it anymore.I’ve tried to reset all the Sonos device, but the issue remain.I’ve also tried with other smartphones, but the issue is still there. I gave to Sonos app all the needed authorisations.I’ve tried to play from the Sonos app installed in the PC (Windows 11) and it works fine.Please can you help me?It’s really a pity I cannot use the system during Christmas time… Thank you, Bye. 

I am being offered a credit to upgrade my 5-year-old Bridge to a Boost.  Are there any compelling reasons to do so? Does the Boost offer more features or better performance?

I paired 2 Sonos Era 300 with my Sonos Arc. The Arc now randomly and frequently turns my sound down from anywhere between 15 to 10. If I unplug the Era 300s, my volume works fine with Arc. Any suggestions?

It comes with 6 sonance speakers, 1 subwoofer and 1 sonos amp. I am looking to cover an area of around 5000 sqft so I am pretty sure the I can combine the two systems of 6.1 to create a 12.2 to play the same music.  my question is that can I use the the 12.2 system with only 1 amp, so then I will have 1 amp leftover to use in another area with different speakers. The sonance website mentions that the system can be upgraded to 16.2 with only 1 amp but I want to confirm.  https://www.sonance.com/assets/media/files/downloads/SGS_Data_Sheet_080704.pdf https://www.avinstalls.co.uk/sonance-garden-series-sgs-81-satsub-system-with-sr2125-amp-p-308

Hello, I was using two wifi networks (at home and in the office). In general they were configured the same way (even wifi name and password were the same). In each places I had my Sonos products configured (three speakers at home and one Play:1 in the office; all products are older ones and I use Sonos S1 to connect to them). Few months ago I closed the office, packed my Play:1 and left it aside in the basement. Today decided to power up that Play:1 at home - I’ve plugged it to the power, Sonos S1 app discovered the new product (which had been actually configured) and claimed it needs to be updated to the newest firmware. However, during the update I received the “Update problem” information; I was trying several times but with no luck. Then, I decided to reset the Play:1 (by unplugging from the power and pressing the play/pause button during the start). The led first started to blink orange, then green. So I started the configuration hoping to add this product to my network from the s

When playing movie or audio the volume slider allows to open settings and a window slides up on the IOS app. Right now only Bass, Treble, and Balance (if applicable). It would be great not to show only the EQ, but the Surround Audio, Height Audio, Sub Audio when it is available since it takes a lot of steps from the settings with the EQ to the settings icon, scrolling down to access the sound settings.

When in the System->Products page and selecting a product it would be great to switch the order of the settings from:Name, Products, Sound, Hardwareinto the following order:Name, Sound, Products, Hardware (switching the order of Products and Sound).This would allow easier access to the sound settings which is more used then the Product settings. Or make the Products and Hardware section able collapse and remember the settings. The Sound Controls are used more often then the product settings.

Bonjour !!  J’ai un souci depuis 2-3 jours avec ma Roam, en effet elle s’éteint souvent en pleine lecture multimédia depuis AirPlay (Apple Music, Netflix). Mon réseau est fibré, et il n’y a jamais d’objet venant interférer entre mon iPhone 13 Pro Max/iPad Pro et la Roam. J’aurais souhaité une solution à mon problème.  Merci d’avance !! Moderator edit:Google Translate-Good morning !! I have had a problem for 2-3 days with my Roam, in fact it often turns off while playing multimedia from AirPlay (Apple Music, Netflix). My network is fiber, and there is never any object interfering between my iPhone 13 Pro Max/iPad Pro and the Roam. I would like a solution to my problem. Thanks in advance !!

Following situation:I have an Interkom (Fibaro) device which is connected to a Home Center 3 Hub. I am using Sonos as a sound speaker. Now, when I install the Sonos Plug-In in the HC3 web app, I can only start / pause / stop playing music on Sonos. Is there a way to trigger just a simple Door Bell (eg. MP3) in Sonos ? I have also enabled Alexa / Sonos Skills, but not quite clear where and how I could trigger some Door Bell Sounds in Sonos ?Can someone help ? Thanks Tom

I moved my play 1 and Play 3 since when I have been unable to reconnect either.I can only use S1 as my phone does not support S2.The reconnection options on S1 are greyed out or are not present making the app useless.It appears that my only option is to purchase a new phone which supports S2 which I have no intention of doing.Should I sell or otherwise dispose of my speakers ?I should add that I have been visiting various outlets seeking advice, over about a three month period, to no avail 

This might be a strange question - I have a record player lined-in to the Sonos Five. Is there anyway to stream the music from the record player, via the Sonos Five, to the Sonos app itself, either on my Iphone or Mac? as if the Sonos app is another Sonos speaker?

I have an older Sonos 1 connect amp with four Sonos speakers connected. Two of the speakers have good volume and sound - two are working but weak. any suggestions to help equalize these a bit? 

Are there any mp3 players that have the Sonos 1 app pre-installed?

So I have two paired Play 1’s (no Bluetooth). My music streaming choice is Apple Music (after several years with Deezer). I can’t ❤️ a song on the sonos app but can on the Apple app (using a portable speaker playing straight from the Apple Music app. I find this completely amateur of Sonos for not providing this function, literally every streaming service has this function Unless I am missing something does the Sonos app provide a “love” function on your fav songs that is not immediately visible?

My SKY satellite box is connected to my projector via HDMI so no HDMI output available to connect my Beam Gen2 soundbar. Currently my only option is to connect Beam via Optical direct to my Sky Satellite box.I would like to connect sound using HDMI and interested in how others have achieved this. I have tried HDMI splitters at the SKY end but no success. 

I can be playing an album through Amazon Music on my Roam when it suddenly goes silent.  I can see that the song still plays on the roam as time moves.  I have tried switching off and on again but it doesn’t work.However, there is no issue if I go to a myTuner radio station or a Pocket Casts podcast.  I can then go back to Amazon Music later and it plays fine.  I can’t see any correlation between the album being in HD or UHD.

Pushing the envelope of SONOS Technology - and having trouble.The Setup: ERA 100 connected to Pro-ject T1 BT turntable via bluetooth and playing a recordERA 100 setup via WifiAdditional 8 room whole house system on Sonosnet and all connected to ERA 100 to listen to the turntableThe issue: When I use the ERA 100 as the source to drive my 8 speaker whole house system, after about 10 minutes of the entire 9 speaker system all outputting the turntable music perfectly, I start to get sonosnet dropouts.  The single ERA 100 never has a dropouts and continues to play the music via bluetooth from the turntable flawlessly for hours.  The 8 speakers in the Sonosnet system all start to dropout at roughly the same time and they come back up automatically after 5-10 seconds in random order.  It is as if the Sonos system drops the entire sonosnet system, then reconnects.  The perplexing part is I get perfect connectivity for about 10 minutes, then I get sonosnet dropouts every 2-3 minutes that last 5
