I have an arc and just bought 2 one sl. Not golding good surround on any streaming app whether using native to TCL 65R625 or through apple tv 4k. Currently have TV audio setting at auto for digital output format but have also tried pass through and custom. Apple TV setting is auto, Atmos Available. Sonos app will even show that the sound is Atmos when available. Thanks for any advice

will the beam gen1 work with S2 app 

It seems that if I want to connect my Sonos roam to another device, I first have to forget the device on whichever device it was connected to previously before I can then connect to something else. If this is the case, it is most inconvenient. Means I have to remember which device I had it connected to, find that device, not just disconnect but forget device. Otherwise, unable to connect it to another device such as my iPhone or my iPad. Is this correct?

how do i get my sound bar connected to my account

Been trying to connect the sonos system for months now… One more try before I beat the crap out of every sonos POS speaker with a bat on tik tok!!   I have unplugged, replugged try to connect (eero in legacy mode) nothing, not one speaker, the bridge not a thing is found.  The buttons you show dont match anything and then you go into a loop of nothing but BS!!  Spent hundreds on your products and now they are just paper weights

We switched from a ZVOX SB500 to Sonos Beam.  We forgot what a great job ZVOX did controlling the volume of commercials.Sonos Beam does not, or I do not know how to turn on volume leveling.The wife wants me to dump the Sonos and put back the ZVOX.  Please help. Thanks, Vic  

I currently have a Sonos HT set (Arc, 2x One SLs, Sub (Gen 3) connected to a PS4 Pro and a Samsung Q90T. So it’s PS4 Pro > Q90T > Sonos Arc HT. I borrowed some Blu-ray DVDs from a local library and noticed that they only have Dolby DTS-HD Master Audio tracks in English. However, I can only get Stereo PCM when playing the movies via the Arc.  I tried various combinations via the PS4 Pro “Sound and Screen” menu > Audio Output Settings > Audio Format (Priority) - (Linear PCM or Bitstream (Dolby or DTS)), the Pro’s Blu-ray DVD settings > Audio Format (Linear PCM or Bitstream (Direct)), as well as the Q90T’s Sound > Expert settings - HDMI-eARC mode (Off or Auto) and Digital Output Audio Format (PCM, Auto, Pass-Through) and I can’t get “surround” sound only Stereo 2.0. I researched (lurked) on these forums as well as Reddit for possible solutions, but nothing worked with the various settings I mentioned. Only thing that comes up is possibly getting an audio extractor, but I

Can I add a turntable and 2 outdoor wired speakers without the AMP.  What product would connect these two?   Also what non Sonos receivers would you recommend.  

I’m using my Sonos more and more to listen to podcasts.  Would really help if the controllers had simple buttons for a 30 second jump forward, and a 10 second jump backward in whatever is playing.  Yes I know I can move the current slide to move to a new spot in what I’m playing… but this is hyper sensitive, a set time jump forward / backward button would be much easier when listening to podcasts.

I‘m not able to browse my Plex library. The Sonos app shows „unable to browse music“. Plex Server is on local network on a synology NAS and up to date.My Diagnostic number: 1000464559

I have Sonos SL One in 3 rooms. I don’t keep them switched on. When i want to use one, say in the kitchen, it doesn’t always connect. I run through the prompts, disconnect the router and sometimes the product works and sometimes it doesn’t. i have a good internet connection. Rather frustrating as generally happy with Sonos. Any tips?

not sure if I’m posting in the right section ……Please help. I have a R7350 Nighthawk system with download speed 411.12 Mbps & upload 22.13 Mbps. I have (2) Sonos one SL. The problem is after playing for an hour the music stops. The light on the top of the speaker is white. I have made about 10 calls when submitting diagnostic code. At first I was told to contact my network provider . Changed channel setting still no difference. All speakers show on my network & are on 2.4 GHZ. speakers are about 15-20 feet from router open floor plan. Not to sure what to do at this point. Any assistance would be appreciated. Extremely frustrating when you call and it like they are reading off the same que card. The latest was told to delete everything and reinstall ...yup same result….Please help!!

Hi,Simple question, i am wondering if i can add a sonos sub mini to a setup with a sonos sub gen3 before i buy it.It is to give a boost at the rear of my room without getting a second sub gen3.Thank you guysPhilippe

Hi all. New to forum and help with the following issues would be much appreciated: Getting hum when connect the Pro-Ject T1 BT to Sonos Amp, which I think might be ground loop, is that possible with this turntable given built in phono stage ? Sonos Amp has no ground post so where and how do I attach ground cable from turntable if this is what is needed to try and stop the hum ? How the heck do I turn off the annoying bleep on the Sonos amp if you press the volume up or down. It’s sound crazy annoying and spoils the listening experience ?many thanks for any advice.

Hi,I bought a pair of Play 3’s six years ago to replace stereo system and use them for music via my laptop. I want to boost these and add more bass to the system.My question is simply this, will a Sonos Sub mini pair ok with the 3’s via the S2 app I use on my laptop?Many thanks in advance, Dave 

I have 3 Amps, 1 Connect and 1 dock for my home system.This power four zones with a total of 12 speakers. I am ready to pull the trigger on S2 because I want Apple Air Play.I understand the need for 3 new amps but what is the replacement for the Connect and the dock? Do I use what they now call a port?

When connecting to a remote, Bluetooth speaker, I am having issues connecting back to my surroundsound

Regardless of media being played, my sound is missing the right or left side. Some songs fine, but those at utilizes both do not sound in full. 

I’ve scoured the community for an answer to this and all i see is the recommendation to check my smart tv and disable passwords (none are enabled) or to factory reset which i prefer not to do. Is there someplace in the sonos app or on iPhone settings i can control this? I don’t even see Airplay on my settings list in my iPhone 12. Thanks!

I’m looking for a recommendation on a universal speaker floor stand that can accommodate a Sonos One, I’m not a fan of the stands made specifically for Sonos One as I guess I won’t be able to use those stands for anything else in the future if I ever change to a different set of speakers. 

Hi, I’ve had the Sonos Five & Sonos Roam for a few months now. Almost every night I attempt to listen to music with my partner while hanging out/making dinner and it feels like every night I experience a different issue and it turns into a 30 mins-45 minute ordeal just to get music working.  In no particular order or frequency it is one of the following:Sonos Five disppears from Sonos app Sonos Roam disappears from Sonos app Sonos Roam appears to be ‘Powered Off’ when it is in fact powered on Sonos Roam appears to be in ‘Sleep Mode’ Sonos Five & Sonos Roam both appear in the app, but I cannot connect to them through Spotify Both Sonos Roam & Sonos Five appear in the app, and I can stream music to one or the other, but not both at the same timeIt’s a nightmare every time I want to try to listen to music. I’ve tried ALL the basic troubleshooting steps:Powered Off & Back On Unpugged & Plugged Back in Ensured that the roam is fully charged Pressed ALL the buttons on the

I replaced my 1st gen. Sonos Beam with a Sonos Arc.  I've read online and forum posts that suggest the Beam can be used as a "speaker," but those provided scant "how to" details.   I have Sonos products throughout my home and do not need another TV “soundbar.”Can someone please point me to a resource/link/thread that will explain how I can convert the Beam "soundbar" into a simple speaker that's NOT connected/associated/affiliated to/with a television set? I’m assuming I can do the set up using the Ethernet port, and, using the App, can then assign the Beam it to any room?It would also be interesting to hear what other applications users have found for their retired Beams--besides.selling them--additional speaker for existing set up? Independent speaker in another room? Cordially,Bill

Four Sonos Ones, two Sonos Threes. One Connect and One Boost. The Three are a pair. One of the Threes is hardwired into the router, as is the Boost. The other Three and the Connect are eight feet from the router, unobstructed line of sight.1300 square foot, single-level apartment. Drywall walls.New (Sept 2022) router.I cannot accept “network interference” as a reason why speakers drop and come back in sporadically.Yes I have rebooted the router, and at least weekly I unplug and replyg every speaker (which involves moving bookcases, which is nice).Diagnostic 233812001 and 964518148.

I know the repeat flag stays on for a playlist between usages of the Sonos system, however when I switch to a new playlist, the repeat flag switches off.  How do I globally set Sonos so that it repeats my playlists by default? 

A friend has asked for my help updating their sound system.  They have built in speakers for a home theater in two rooms.  Sonos “was” out of the question as a Sonos Amp only powers one pair, so many would have been required.  The new AV receivers that advertise “works with sonos” would be a good solution.Question:  Are there any receivers/amps that do not require a Sonos Patch?  In working up various systems, the Patch dramatically adds to the cost.  I.E. are there any that have the “complete works” built in?
