Hi!Is there the possibility to use a Sonos speaker connected via Bluethoot to the smartphone, in order to listen music even if in the house you do not have WiFi/Internet avaliable?For instance, I could use my smartphone connected to the speaker in order to listen either music stored in the smartphone itself or in streaming.Is that possibility vailable somehow?thanks!

I just received my One SLs that I ordered from Amazon and I noticed the box says “Shadow Edition”.  Any ideas on what this Shadow Edition is and how it may differ form a “normal” edition?  Thanks. 

Some way or another I got my Roam connected to my TV Speakers. How do I separate them? I have TV Speakers + Roam. I don’t want the roam in here.

The Move cuts in and out when the TV is on. (I’m using the Beam, Sub, and two play 1s for my home theater.) The sound is solid when I’m playing music through the Sonos app.

Hi Every one.I am not a sound expert. I have been watching movies like 6 underground on Netflix and my Sonos app was showing that it is ATMOS. since few days now, the same movie is now showing “Dolby  multichannel PCM 5.1My Setting: ARC + SUB (gen3) + 2 one SL. With Samsung QA75Q60A to get ATMOS working I remembered I set eARC to auto. but now with the same setting ATMOS is lostIs Dolby Multichannel PCM 5.1 better than atmos?what can i do to get ATMOS back?

I have about 12 Sonos speakers - and all of them are connected to SonosNet - except for my Move (which must use Wi-Fi).  Whenever I play music - even if I’m not using the Move - as soon as motion is detected on my Ring cameras, the music will stop and I have to manually press play.  Most of the solutions I read here were to ensure at least one speaker was hard-wired to router (4 of my speakers are) and rebooting each speaker so that it joins SonosNet.  And that’s what I’ve done.  Still no luck.  Any ideas?

I have a Sonos surround setup with Playbar, Sub Woofer and two surround speakers.  For some streaming services (Amazon Prime, TV Channels that broadcast in DD) that say it is broadcasting in Dolby Digital, things work fine and when I check in the Sonos app,it correctly indicates that it is receiving a DD input.  However for some streaming services (HBO Max, Apple TV) the app only indicates Stereo PCM even though the service says it is broadcasting in DD.  Appreciate any insight as to why things work with some services but not all. 

Hi,Due to some wifi improvement I want to remove my boost. I did it by just unplugging it but then of course my devices are not recognized anymore.It's not possible to get the system working anymoreOn the forum I see that you actually need to remove a device in the app first, but I can only find these topics about a BRIDGE, and not about a BOOST.The app doesnt have an option to remove a Boost either.Is the best option to re-install my whole system again? And how to do that? (as the app cant find any of the devices in my system)It was installed originally with a Boost (so wired to the routed) and the rest "wireless": 2x Play3, a playbar, a Sub and a Play1.Thanks for advice.

One attachment shows the sonos app will use iheartradio and spotify services to search by artist. However the other attachment shows the sonos app will not use these services to search by genre. Why not please? TIA .... Greg  

The playbar connects temporarily (a few minutes) and disappears from the device list). I tried the solutions in the following posts but they don’t wotk.https://en.community.sonos.com/home-theater-228993/playbar-disappears-from-app-control-6826565I tried connecting through ethernet but the same happens. Thanks in advance for your help!

Setup: Windows 11RTX 3090Sonos ArcPhilips OLED856 IssueAfter a certain period of time (15 minutes to an hour), the regular sound cuts out, and the only sound output from my Sonos arc is a very loud static sound.This only happens when I have Dolby Atmos is enabled in the windows sound configuration (when using stereo mode, this hasn't occurred). I've tried switching the HDMI cables from the PC to TV, and this did not help (in one case, when I used DVI to HDMI, it made it worse, and the only sound was the aforementioned static).I am not sure where the issue is coming from (i.e. TV, GPU, etc.), which makes debugging much harder, so I wondered if anyone has experienced this.

Hello all! I have a Beam (gen 1) that is connected via ARC to my Samsung TV. The default TV settings were PCM but I saw that there were Bitstream. I decided to try that but now the sound feels a bit quieter and more hollow. I then selected DTS Neo 2:5 and its hollow but I feel like it has more surround sound to it. Should I revert back to PCM? Whats the best? Thanks!Setting pictureshttps://ibb.co/jy8MGsxhttps://ibb.co/XjFBBmZ

Building a new home.  We’re going to have a TV outside under a covered patio.  I will most likely use a Beam w/ the TV.  My goal is to have a pair of speakers paired with the Beam to use as surrounds and mostly to be used as music for the back patio and pool area.I really don’t wanna buy the sonos amp (go passive).  So what are my options?  One SLs (which will need power and a wall bracket; are those OK to be outside if under cover? Can (2) moves be paired with the Beam to act as surrounds or are they only for music?  I figured the (2) Moves would serve as the best flexibility and they’re water resistant, but do they work with the TV?

hello, I am looking for a solution to connect my Epson EH-TW7200 projector to my Sonos system (beam+sub+one x2).The goal is to be able to connect my PC, my apple TV and my ps5 to my projector and have the sound come out on the sonos system when I choose to play the ps5 for example. are there boxes like this? To be able to connect all my devices to the projector and also have sound (dolby atmos)? wireless maybe?

I just got my first SONOS - a Beam 2. All set up nicely and easily with the clear guide. However I have to use the optical link as it is an older TV. The sound sometimes stutters as if the cable is loose. It’s the first time I have used optical - should it click firmly in place ? I am a bit wary of using force.Thanks - I know it may seem a very basic questionNic

I have a Move & Beam, they pair for music no problem. The Beam is connected to the TV with Hdmi arc and they both pair when watching the TV except the Move drops off regularly, how can this be prevented? 

I was part of your developer community a few years ago and I still have my Alexa app showing me in the DEV category and I wanted to know if I could be removed from that as my Alexa Sonos integration is not working very well if at all.
