I have an older turntable and 5 CD carousel I’d like to connect to my Sonos system. I bought an inexpensive preamp, and have connected the turntable to the preamp, and the preamp to the Sonos Connect box. I do get music on my system, but the quality of sound is distorted. When I connect the turntable directly to a powered, non-Sonos speaker, the quality of sound is very good.The preamp has a grounding screw, but the turntable does not. Any suggestions out there?

I know this topic has been beaten to death, but in my digging I haven’t seen a scenario that seems to quite line up with this one.  Hoping it’s an easy fix. I have a bunch of Play:1’s and a a playbar littered around my house.   I have one single speaker in a kid’s room that I find goes ‘unavailable’ for a couple of minutes multiple times per hour.   (I note this in the log of my Home Assistant environment that Sonos is integrated into).  Actually playing things on the speaker works just fine.  The Sonos app works just fine.  But according to that log, the flipflopping to unavailable keeps happening.I don’t believe it’s an HA thing (beyond it maybe possibly timing out a bit faster than it should perhaps), because it is ONLY happening on this one speaker for the entire house.I recently switched from SonosNet to wifi-only in an attempt to combat this, but no avail.  When I was on SonosNet the speaker did show it wasn’t getting a great connection.  However since unplugging all the wires an

When i say hey google play some music or a specific music, it says “Playing song name on sonos from spotify” but then it does nothing? It works completely fine from google assistant on my phone and from my google tv. But when i tell my google nest hub 2 it just says “Playing song name on sonos from spotify” without actually doing it?

How to set up 2 Era 100 s to a windows pc via hard ethernet and provide stereo

Apple lossless does not work on my Amp, it constantly drops or says not encoded properly.  Apple lossless works on all the other speakers without any drops, and if I group them, the amp stays silent.  Spotify works perfectly on the Amp.  I am using the S2 app when I play the music.  This started after the last update, no problems before then.Thanks for any advice.

What is this orange light? I just got my roam2 for my trip. Here I am with an orange after a full charge? Is Amazon selling defective sonos items? How disappointing! Last time for me.back to Bose. 

Hello,Since updating my system to firmware version 90.0-67171, I've noticed a significant change in how my Sonos home theater setup behaves.Previously, I had the following configuration:Beam Gen 2 (Ethernet wired)Sub Mini2 × One SLs (used as surrounds)In this setup, the Beam served as the wired node, and all other speakers were connected via SonosNet (WM:0). This provided excellent stability and completely offloaded traffic from my main Wi-Fi network. The connection matrix showed full green mesh connections, and everything worked flawlessly.After the update:The Beam remains on WM:0The Sub Mini and One SLs are now on WM:3The connection matrix shows no mesh activityAll bonded speakers now appear to bypass SonosNet and instead rely on my regular Wi-FiThis has reduced visibility and performance control, and I’m now seeing increased Wi-Fi traffic through my primary access point, which defeats one of the main reasons I invested in Sonos in the first place.Is there a way to make SonosNet work

When I select Manage → Add Radio Station, I enter the radio station’s URL and give it a name.  I’ve done this several times and I cannot find the radio station afterwards!  I’ve read elsewhere that it should be in “My Radio Stations”.  Unable to find My Radio Stations.  Also unable to find radio stations after adding by searching.  I just added one and gave it a unique name AAAAA, and still cannot find it!Where are these radio stations?  

I can't conect to my favourite tune-in station anymore "EPIC LOUNGE - restaurant Lounge". Is the radio station gone offline? or is is just my problem?

Im considering adding the Sonos noise cancelling headphones to my setup - mostly for me to listen to music but there are times when I want to watch TV and my wife doesnt want to listen !Can the headphones be used just in noise cancelling mode ? So no music - just nice and quiet ?

When using the Sonos app connected to audible there is a chapter selection screen that allows you to choose any chapter in the book. Unfortunately, when you click the play button next to a chapter, it appears to work but then playback just continues from wherever you were last listening.  This is incredibly frustrating when you want to listen to a book again. If it's a 30 chapter book and you were last on chapter 15 then you have no way of restarting the book apart from either pressing previous chapter 15 times, or pressing next chapter 15 times and then fast forwarding to the end of the last chapter. Even this would be ok if chapter selection was quick, but if you press back 15 times then it will go back one chapter at a time, play a tiny bit of a chapter and then skip back another chapter. Obviously you're going to get impatient doing this, so you end up pressing back 20 times, this then gets you to the first chapter eventually and then carries on restarting chapter 1 another 5 times

Hi, I have five Sonos speakers in the house, 2 in the lounge, 2 in the kitchen and one portable one. At any given time some or all of them disappear from the Sonos App and cannot be found from an iPhone connected to the same WiFi network.  Right now I am typing this on my iPhone and I can see all the speakers in the Sonos app. My wife sat next to me, connected to the same WiFi, and she can see none of them. Sometimes it’s the other way around. Sometimes we can see a couple of the speakers and not the others.  Any ideas?  Chris

My sub mini EQ keeps resetting to zero several times a day. May las a couple of hours, but eventualy resets to zero.

I have a Denon AV receiver with fabulous L & R wired front speakers. I also have a spare SONOS Beam. I want to combine the existing Denon L & R front speakers with the Beam, and two new SONOS Era 100’s for the rears and a subwoofer. Is this possible? If so, is there a schematic posted somewhere of how to do it? Thx…

I am looking to buy the Samsung q7. Will my 2 era 300 speakers connect to the tv wirelessly or via Bluetooth? 

Hello, I’m interested in using these components in my living room.What’s the best way to hook them up?I’m assuming it would look something like Apple TV > HDMI > Frame TV Connection Box > arc HDMI > Sonos Beam … but then what? Would the Beam and Amp be able to somehow sync wirelessly over WiFi?I’m new to Sonos, so I apologize if this is a dumb question 😂Thank you in advance for any advice!  

Is the discontinued sonos one sl compatible with sub 4? If not, is there a sub that is compatible? We have these in the garage and they sound great but I'm looking for a bit more deepness that I can feel.

Can't get my phones Bluetooth to connect to my sonos ultra soundbar. Followed the instructions and can't find the device or connect to it why?

Okay, I bought a Beam Gen 2, 2 era100s to be used as surrounds and a Sub Mini. I set it up under my wife’s account using our wi-fi system. So, I go to Setting> your system, products & it shows the Beam, Era 100 Left surround, Era 100 Right surround and a sub mini. If I watch something in Tubi which I know is only in stereo in the Sonos app TV HDMI it shows Dolby Atmos. Same with YT. And there are no sounds from the surrounds but when I do True Play they play a sound. Have I got something set up wrong here?

Sonos has only gotten more difficult to move and re-setup.  Done. done. Done.  I don't even care if I can resell the system I've purchased, just ready to unload it. Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.

I have an S1 system (a couple of old Play:5 devices) and an S2 system (with 6 zones, including a Sonos Amp).  The Amp and most other S2 devices are using wireless.Things generally work well, but the Amp has started to be troublesome.  It appears in the Sonos App on my iPhone/iPad devices, then disappears.  When it’s there, if I try to play anything (local library, Spotify, BBC Sounds), there’s a delay and I then get a message saying “The connection timed out”.I’ve rebooted it (including leaving power off for 24 hours) but no change.Using a port scanner (ports 1-1400), I am told ports 1400, 1410, 1443, 1843 are open.  I’m not aware of any others than should be - shout if there are any others I should check.Pointing a browser at  http://10.1.1.117:1400/status  I get a handful of links - enetports, wireless, zp, ifconfig etc.Most links provide (on cursory examination) valid data.  However, using ifstatus I’m told the connection has timed out.  I’m puzzled by this as ifstatus should just t
