As title a - I have the above Sonos speakers in a surround sound setup. Would swapping my Beam Gen1 with a Beam Gen2 make a noticeable improvement?I’m using an LG C8 OLED, with Apple TV 4K connected via Arc as my primary source.  Thanks. 

I’m trying to sync up Spotify with both my Roam and Beam to play the same song through both speakers. The system in the Sonos app only seems to list one device at a time and won’t find the other when I try to add a product, despite Spotify detecting both products still. So when I choose grouping in Spotify, I can only play through the one device in the Sonos app system. I’ve tried resetting the speakers, apps, wifi and both devices have different IPs but nothing works. Can you help please?

Seriously, 400 MB, according to speed tests. I am getting gigabyte scale fiber optic Internet from CenturyLink, but the huge draw of the Sonos system is causing dropout when the fiber bandwidth dips.System: 4 sonos 1s, 2 sonos 5s, 1 sonos move. Streaming mp3s from Airplay on my Mac Mini M1 desktop.The Internet suggested changing the Wi-Fi channel that the Sonos operates on, but in my android control app, it only lists one channel (11), and there's no option to change it.What is going on here?

Has anyone successfully connected a turntable to a Sonos Play 5??? We’ve tried two different turntables, cords, preamps etc and the sound quality is terrible on all of them. Please let me know which turntables you’ve had success with! So far we’ve tried Fluance and Audio-Technica. Thanks!

Is it possible to force Sonos to use the 5 GHz band and thus avoid microwave interference?I have recently replaced some old Sonos devices with new S2 capable devices, so I have a mixture of Sonos Five, Sonos Port (all new) and Play:3 (older, not replaced). Three of them are hard-wired to the LAN, the rest rely upon wireless.My home WiFi network supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz (same SSID) with two WAPs to provide good 5GHz signal throughout my house.My problem is that when I use my microwave a number of the devices lose the music stream (which is coming from a NAS hard-wired to the LAN).  This suggests Sonos is using 2.4GHz.  Is there anyway I can have the Sonos devices just use 5GHz all the time to avoid this issue?  

Suppose I have 2 “Rooms” set up.Room 1: Hi Fi Set of FivesRoom 2: Ray soundbar and a SubwooferFor listening to music from my music library in stereo, I want to group “Room 1” with “Room 2”. Physically rooms 1 and 2 are actually the same room. Assuming I can do this and I’m not at all sure I can given I’m grouping rooms with multiple speakers in each: Question 1: Will the stereo paired fives (Room 1) maintain their stereo status when grouped with the soundbar and subwoofer (Room 2)?Question 2: Will the sub act as a proper subwoofer, i.e. will the Sonos designed crossover still work?Question 3: Will the”Ray” play in stereo?Question 4: Could I reverse the process when i want to use the TV i.e. start with the “Ray and Subwoofer” (Room 2) and group with the “Hi Fi set of Fives” (Room 1) to use for TV sound?Thank You Sonophiles, much appreciated.

Not sure if this is the best forum spot to ask and get good answers.Sorry my first day as a ARC owner, or any Sonos product.Trying to setup and use my new ARC.My apple XS max is telling me I must update to use the ARC.Thinking it would be better to use with a old Sonos operating system.Is there a way to go back to old firmware?All helpful tips are welcome!Thank you!

Hi,I have an media library bigger than 65000 files. Sonos ist limited by 65000 files or faster by memory. Ist there a solution possible, perhaps a RaspberryPi media server? I think it is only possible by an supported service App for Sonos like SpotifyAny idea?TIA Dirk

I’ve just bought Beam gen2 so I can stream in the highest audio quality. However, the Plex app on my 2019 Shield seems to be struggling a little. The Dolby Vision logo keeps appearing every so often as if the video has just started although the stream is fine and lag free. This never happened when playing the 5.1 audio stream. Can anyone in a similar position recommend a solution? I’m using an LG B1

I changed my email on the account. I no longer use the old email. Now the speakers will not work with Alexa. Can someone please let me know what I need to do to resolve this?

I’m trying to use my Samsung remote to control the volume on my playbar. I used the app to set up IR control but when it comes to the first step, it doesn’t pick up the volume buttons on my remote. The only button on my remote that the playbar picks up is the power button. Whenever i press the power button during the setup, it continues and says my remote is setup. The power button on my remote is being used to turn off and on my tv and apparently control the volume on my playbar. Is there a fix for this?

Hi Sonos famI cant find storytel to add in the system. I have changed my region to Sweden (like 60 min ago) but still cant find it Any ideas? Thanks 

So I’m doing the setup for surround speakers but I just don't understand what the app wants here.It asks me to get Infront of my TV and select the speaker I can hear.But where am I facing? Towards TV or rear speakers?Im selecting as you would face to the tv but it feels the speaker levels are off after TruePlay.So what is meant here? Facing towards TV or towards Speakers? Sorry but this is just confusing and unclear since it changes the whole setup.Maybe I'm overthinking here..

We have set up Sonos for sound for our TV. Periodically the TV link in the “Streaming Services” page disappears. Tried restarting phone and see if that helps. Sometimes it restores the TV icon but not always. Anyone encounter this and how did you fix it? 

we’ve moved from Spotify to Apple Music. It’s a shame the Sonos implementation of Apple Music is lacking this feature over Spotify.  we listen to the discovery and new for you playlists and would love to tap to add to a playlist.  It was talked about 6 years ago….Any updates?

The Qobuz menu on my Sonos app is in French. How can I change it to English? The Qobuz app on my iPhone is in English and all other music apps on Sonos are in English.

Hi all I have had a Play:5 at home for many years. My work place purchased some Sonos Ons SLs. I downloaded the new app as the original app couldn’t control these and logged onto the work account to be able to control them from my phone. All worked well...until, I bought a Beam for home! I set this up seamlessly, but as it also uses the new app, unbeknownst it has associated this to my work account. Is there anyway to transfer the Bean registration to my personal account without transferring the ownership of the whole system. Finding it all pretty confusing! Cheers in advance Steve
