Hi AllI got a recently bought a ARC and hoping to connect with AMP to for the surround sound. I got an issue. The ceiling speakers that connect to the AMP simply don’t have sound. The sound only comes from the ARC, On the App, everything seems to be connected, as you can see on the screenshots. I can even play and pause the ACR through the touch button on the AMP. To me on paper everything seems to be connected, expect for the sound. I’ve tried the reset the AMP. and Yes, when is not grouped by surround sound, the AMP and ceiling speakers work just fine on their own.By any chance, someone knows how to solve this problem?  Thanks a lot!!   

Hi, I've just purchased a Beam and tried to add it to my "Living Room" but it's created "Living Room 2". I don't want to connect them together but can they be in the same room? Not surely if I understand how the rooms work?!? I have tried to rename/move the rooms but just ended up switching the around.  

Sonos Arc is connected to Samsung 65inch Terrace TV thru eArc.. When the TV is turned off the Sonos Arc gets diconnected and is not visible to the TV in the settings. I have to unplug the HDMI from the Sonos than plug it back in and the Sonos works again.. What can I do to fix?? 

I’ve got a long narrow room that has five ceiling speakers installed currently, driven by an AVR, that make up a simple 5.1 setup. Do to mounting constraints the height speakers of the ARC will be useless. I’d like to use the front L/R speakers for Dolby Atmos Height channels, driven by an AMP - Similar to how the AMP currently can currently drive the rear surrounds.In my preferred setup I’d have the ARC, Sub, and Two AMPs to complete the surround setup. 

The Sonos app on my iPhone 6 (iOS 12.5.6 and stuck there) is no longer functional, it asks for an update and most parts of the app greyed out.Why ask for this update and cripple the app like that?The funny thing is that the alarm I set up in the app still works and wake me up every morning, but I can’t change the time or what is playing!

I bought a surround sound set, Beam, 2 x 1’s and a Sub Mini. The beam and the 1’s were very easily set up and sound great but the sub, I just can’t get it to be recognised. I’ve tried over Wi-Fi and Ethernet connection and no joy.  Tried booting it all up again, and again and again. Anyone got any tips? Suggestions?

Hi,I’m trying to setup Google Assistant on my account but always ends up with this message after being redirected to login to my Sonos account/setup:and my system is fully updated - any advise to get through this? Br. Lasse

Hello,My playbase has been unable to connect to wifi for well over a year now, so effectively I’ve had to connect it directly to my router which means it is not controllable via the app or useful for anything other than the permanent connection to the TV. I can no longer connect it to the network to use it for Spotify or other services. I’ve gone through all the troubleshooting procedures but have never been able to reconnect the system wirelessly.I notice from this forum that this is not an unusual problem. What options are available to me at this point? 

I recently purchased a Sonos Arc and Sub. I selected white to blend in with the existing decor. My Sub came with a white cable but my ARC came with black power and black HDMI which both stand out like dog’s b***s. I emailed SONOS (apparently the CEO) and asked if I could exchange the cable. I received a reply from a Dion stating that the cables only come in black. I have seen other posts where customers have received the same colour cable as the component they have purchased. I have also seen on SONOS website that white cables are available for purchase. Surely this isn't a hard thing to get right. Not a cheap item to have cables that don't match and then be told they don’t have white cables??? Anybody else have a similar problem and met with success?Disappointed in SONOS 😒

Sonos Sub is not connecting to my Samsung Frame TV while using 4K Apple TV. I recently bought a 2022 55” Samsung Frame TV for the art mode.On the Samsung One Connect box, I have:4K Apple TV in HDMI 1 Sonos Arc in HDMI 3 (aRC) Using the Samsung Frame TV with the 4K Apple TV - only the Sonos Arc comes on for audio - the Sonos (Gen 3) Sub does not start-up and connect, and I haven’t been able to make the Sub connect manually using the Sonos app. On my previous 55” TCL 4K TV, while using the Apple TV - the Sonos Arc would automatically connect to my Sonos (Gen 3) Sub. Interestingly, now, when I connect to my Sonos system directly from Spotify on my iPhone - both the Arc and the Sub work together seamlessly.  How can I get my Sonos Sub to work while using both the Samsung Frame TV and Apple TV?

I purchased the Sonos One SL two years ago for my sister who has since passed away.  I’m going gift it to my neighbors and need to find some documentation to point them to.  I’ve checked the online manual for the One SL and it makes no mention of the built-in Alexa feature.  Is there another version of the document that I’m missing?  TIA

Hi , Looking to set up Arc + Sub + 2x One SL on my Panasonic TV. Will it support your his using the HDMI (ARC) port? thanks, amit

I have a Sonos Beam Gen 2 and two Sonos Ones as surrounds. My tv is a Philips 40PFL5xx6H model from 2011 - it has no optical port, has one HDMI and one HDMI ARC port.Everything is connected with wifi and bluetooth. The surround is set up. Trueplay done and all. . Steaming music from Spotify works wonderfully, but that's where the good news comes to an end. I've spend most of my day today trying to connect Sonos to my tv and it doesn't work.I have enabled CEC / EasyLink on my tv settings, have disabled the tv speakers and enabled the HDMI ARC plug where my Sonos beam is plugged into. (I accudently plugged it into the normal HDMI port first, but that didn't work and I have reset my Sonos and started over since)   I have disconnected everything else from the tv/HDMI ports: both chromecast and the receiver are currently disconnected and only Sonos is connected to the to.   The TV is set to use this HDMI port as source, and I see some close ups of Sonos products on my tv - so the TV and Son

I have 1,000s of songs on a stand alone hard drive (no power). I want to play them on my Sonos, utilizing either a music source, an app, or hardware (3mm input jack).  I would like the functionality to search songs/albums/artists (just like an iPod).  Any suggestions?
