Trying to install Arc Ulta for first time.  Go to step in install were wanted to connect with my WiFi network.  Connection failed, so tired wired connection with same results.  Did factory reset.  Same results.  Any suggestions?

Hi, I’ve purchased the Sonos Beam Gen2. So far I’m a slightly unimpressed for a few reasons. First one, the sound is inconsistent between terrestrial TV channels.  Example, watching something on ITV, sound is spot on, clear surround sound.  Go to E4, Big Bang Theory, and the sound is tinny at best.  Then back to ITV to watch a movie and the sound is muffed, difficult to hear what is being said.  I’ve fiddled around with the settings but doesn’t do anything to improve the sound, luck of the draw per channel.  I’ve a Philips TV which at the moment is producing a more superior sound experience on terrestrial TV.  Anyone any tips to improve this?Streaming services such as Prime, Disney and Paramount so far seem consistent with the sound, but that leads onto the next thing that hasn’t impressed me.  I purchased the Sonos because I want to experience the rich sounds especially Dolby Atmos.  Imagine my surprise to find all three streaming services require premium subscription to enjoy Dolby A

Can any one advise me on how to connect a Bose Acoustimass 20 Sub woofer to my new Sonos Amp - I need to know how the cabling works as the Bose has a customised "Bose" only jack that connects only to a Base amp?

Yesterday I could access Amazon Music Unlimited as well as TuneIn thru my Sonos speakers. Today all requests to Alexa get the response “sorry that device is offline”. I have checked my Amazon Acct which shows my subscription is current. Amazon can be played through the app on my Android phone. On the Sonos app Content Services show Rova, Sonos Radio, and TuneIn. I searched for Amazon Music on ‘Add Content Service’ but got result ‘No results for Amazon’  

Since quite recently, when I load an album or a playlist in the app and hit the PLAY button or Track 1, the app instead selects some random track in the list to play. This is even though I have not pressed the SHUFFLE button in any way. I have to press Track 1 a second time to get it to actually play.Is this a known issue and is there a fix for this?

I’ve been a (mostly) happy Sonos S1 user for 20 years now. I recently decided to take the plunge by refreshing and expanding my system and moving to S2. Right now, I am thrilled with my new products and the quality of the sound that I have throughout my home.BUT I had no idea what I was getting into. The app, the app …That said, I get that Sonos is in a deep hole and I want to be patient and continue to have a happy relationship with my sound system.SO, here is my current topic/question: I usually use music services but I also appreciate my local music library. It is mostly FLAC and partly non-FLAC. I like having the Album Art, I wish I had Artist Art, and I want my compilation albums to be properly indexed by Album and Song Artist within album.From trying various things, this in my current understanding:iTunes is out for me because they do not support FLAC Artist Art is out because Sonos expects to get it from the iTunes server I have Album Art included as jpg’s in the album folders a

Hi guys, I have problems with Arc Ultra and my surround system.I switched from Arc to Arc Ultra several days ago. From that moment, I noticed that randomly LEDs on the surround and sub blink white for a while, then it return to work good, but only surround speakers (IKEA Table lamp Gen 2). The sub gen 3, has solid orange light and not working! I can see in the app as disconnected! I have to reboot it to work again.What I can do? Thanks!

I’m very disappointed that Sonos radio plays tracks that have profanity without having warnings….Actually what really bothers me is the inability to remove songs from being played. It’s not like the "radio” stations are actually actively DJ’d by real people. I have these stations playing in a healthcare office setting where a broad demographic of people come through so profanity really doesn’t set the mood. I’ve liked Sunset Fuzz and Poet’s Corner to name a few and each have a song or two that comes on that has profanity. Is it possible to add functionality to remove songs? Or to provide lists of the tracks played? Realistically, these stations are just a playlist since you hear repeats several times a day…It also seems that these forums have a ton of sections for managing the hardware, but not a whole lot to communicate about the music services that sonos offers. IMO the stations and music are a big part of “sonos product”.

I’m trying to get my Samsung frame TV remote control to directly increase or decrease the volume on the Sonos Beam.   I’ve paired the remote control with the Sonos beam in the Sonos app. However, every time I use it, although it works correctly, the frame TV shows an optical message on the screen which is very irritating   The Beam is connected to the frame TV using a HDMI cable, and it is plugged into the optical port on the frame TV junction box via and HDMI to optical adopter from Sonos.  any help on this would be wonderful

My alarms all of a sudden stopped working. I looked in the Sonos Community for solutions and unfortunately the following troubleshooting suggestions did not work:Update software Delete alarms and set new alarms Set alarms on a desktop Checked time zone (even though I’m Arizona, which daylight savings doesn’t apply to us.I would appreciate your help.Thank you

I moved my Play:5 to another room. After that it kind of ended up in a hickup.I try to describe my problem. If I start playback of music from the Sonos App or via Airplay the Sonos indicator light toggles between orange and white. When I touch the play button twice it starts to play.As long asI don’t pause the music play on. Switching to another track works aswell.But when I press on pause and then start the music again the blinking starts again and I have to double touch the play button on the Sonos again.Is that a known problem? What can I do? I already did a factory reset. I moved it back to the old location. I tried Ethernet Cable. Same problem.

I have an LG OLED TV and have bought a Beam 2 to add to my sub mini and era 100’s to create a home theatre.My TV has Dolby Atmos and all the settings for this are available.. until I connect my Beam through the HDMI ARC port.No sources I use show Dolby Atmos, and all the TV settings are greyed out.I had a call with Sonos support who connected to my system and confirmed all settings and connections are correct. He then convinced me that the Dolby 5.1 I am getting is better than Atmos.I am not convinced that it is based on my Sons experience with Samsung & Beam.Can anyone advise? I am considering returning the Beam as I feel I am not getting the best experience for my money which is disappointing having built up the system based on Sonos products Any advice is welcome. 

I brought my Sonos system from Germany to India. It’s not getting connected. 

 I have a Sony Bravia TV, Apple TV 4K, and Sonos Beam. I'm experiencing connectivity issues with my audio setup.My current setup:- On my Sony TV: I've selected "Use external speakers"- On my Apple TV: I've set Audio Format to "Stereo"- I'm using an HDMI cable to connect the Beam to my TV's HDMI ARC port (HDMI 3)The Issue:Every time I turn on my TV, the audio doesn't automatically route to my Sonos Beam. The only way to get sound through the Beam is by manually accessing the Apple TV menu and selecting the Beam as an "external speaker" each time.Has anyone experienced this issue or found a solution? I'd appreciate any help!

I need detailed guidance how to connect Sonos Port to Beoplay A9 4th gen so that it can play along in sync with the Sonos system of speakers I have (Era 300, Arc). So far I was able to connect the Port to the Sonos system and connected the Port to the B&O A9 using an RCA to 3.5 mm cable (A9 has only 3.5 mm in). No sound whatsoever coming out of A9. I used the line out ports of the Port to plug the RCA. I am doing something wrong apparently as for now only the Sonos speakers are playing the online radio stations, not the A9. Guidance needed

I’m moving into a new home in a couple weeks and have some questions about how to place the Arc. For a little background, my setup in my living room will be the Arc, Sub (gen 3), and (2) One SLs for my surround speakers. I’d like to mount the Arc to the brick wall below the TV and above the fireplace/mantle but I don’t think the wall is tall enough to mount the Arc 4” below the TV like the website suggests unless I leave the Arc on the mantle. It’s a decent size TV and it might be close to touching the ceiling.How is the sound quality difference between mounting the Arc on the brick wall vs it just sitting on the mantle? The mantle sticks out probably 8” so I’m concerned with it blocking sound. Anyone have any advice? 

Hey guys,I know this has been asked before already, but I couldn't find a recent topic regarding this.At my parents’ place, we have a fairly extensive Sonos setup that has been in place for many years. It’s a mix of older and newer equipment, but everything runs via the S2 controller. Currently, everything operates over SonosNet. A few Sonos devices are wired, with only two devices having Sonos Wi-Fi enabled (to prevent STP issues with Unifi). This setup works reasonably well, but compared to my own setup at home, I notice that everything is much more sluggish. Grouping devices often takes tens of seconds, volume changes don’t register immediately, skipping sons occasionally takes some time, etc. Summary of the setup: They have a main house and a smaller garden house that are far apart in terms of Wi-Fi coverage. Main• 2x CONNECT:AMP (one with a Sub Mini wired directly to it, both wired, but only one AMP has Sonos Wi-Fi enabled)• 1x ERA 300 (I think this one only supports wifi?)• 1x St

When will we be able to playback just s single episode of a podcast within pocket cast.It adds the whole season every time .When will Sonos also mark it as played the next time you enter the cast?The above worked earlier in the good old app. 

Ich betreibe einen Arc ultra und 2 era 300 bei tv Funktion stottert ein Lautsprecher immer wieder bei normaler Musikwiedergabe ist alles in Ordnung woran liegt das? Moderator edit:Google Translate-I have an Arc Ultra and 2 Era 300s. When using the TV, one speaker keeps stuttering. During normal music playback everything is fine. Why is that?

Volevo sapere se è obbligatorio avere WiFi per collegarmi al sonos? One . Oppure basta avere bluetooth grazie aspetto risposta. 

At least once a week I am unable to use the search in the app. It appears as though it is going to search and then goes back to the Home Screen. Without fail I can search if I close and reopen the app.  ********** is a recent Diag.  Does anybody else experience this?Moderator edit: Diagnostic number recorded and removed

Hi,I recently purchased two era 100’s to add to my Arc Ultra and Sub 4 as surrounds.One issue I’m experiencing is that with certain PCM/Stereo sources e.g. Skynews on YouTube it constantly tries to passthrough the audio to the surrounds but it is not consistent and I get on/off sounds which is actually very annoying. For the most part I do not have this issue and if I listen to France24 it does not try passthrough the audio to the surrounds.Why is there this inconsistency when listening to Stereo/PCM sources and is there any way to correct it other than having to disable the surrounds when listening to such sources? I would prefer and expect stereo sources to not try use the surrounds at all.Thanks.

The volume sliders - esp. on phone screens - to me, anyway, are imprecise and the lag slays me.It would be a neat feature if you could, say, double-tap on the slider and enter the specific number you want the speaker to go to.I know* you’re still fixing the things that broke in the update [checking notes] last May, so this is a lower priority. But I would think it wouldn’t be difficult to code?

Looking for help as a newbie with Sonos. We are building a new home and want to ensure solid audio in the living room (especially for TV), gym, and rumpus room. Any suggestions? Do we need an in-floor power point behind the couch in the large open-plan area to plug in surround speakers? Any other tips would be greatly appreciated.
