Spaces & Setups

Wanting to create a mini home theatre but I'm not sure how to connect the Sonos amp to the arc. I know I can group them through the app, but I'm looking to sync them like the sub syncs to the arc. Any tips?

To the old-schoolers out there like myself clinging on to v8.4 (for reasons of old hardware), it seems finally to have been killed by MacOS Monterey (at least on the desktop app) as Sonos now longer responds: I am restricted to the iOS app only and am kicking myself for updating my OS. If anyone knows of a setting or hack to bring it back to life, please let me know. My 3rd party MBS app still works (although not properly).If I were to update my Sonos version does anyone know which is the latest version of the system to definitely work with an S1 (not S2)? Do I even have a choice?Thanks! 

I’m looking to get a subwoofer for my beam gen 2, but I keep reading about the mini sub Sonos will allegedly release later this year, according to ARS Technica:https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/08/want-a-cheaper-sonos-subwoofer-youll-have-to-wait-even-longer/This system will be placed in a room that’s about 10’x10’, so the gen 3 at full price seems overkill, but what are my options? If I get a used gen 2 at a good price, then maybe it’ll be worth it.  I’d like to get a mini sub version, but who knows when or even if it’ll actually release. What do you all suggest? 

In the auto trueplay info it quotes:If you’ve added the Google Assistant to Move, Auto Trueplay will be disabled when Move is in Bluetooth mode Is this also the case for Alexa? Or when voice control is turned on? Or is this only specific to Google Assistant? PLS HELP LOL

I have set up an TV in my bedroom. The room is large and I would like speakers closer to my bed so I don’t wake up chidren. Can I use a Ray soundbar turned low/off and have two One speakers next to the bed (left and right)? Thank you

LONG time Customer with legacy components (Connect, ConnectAmp, Play1) that work just fine within Sonos S1 App - Don’t want, need or can afford to upgrade equipment.But thinking about adding a Sonos Beam gen2 soundbar - How do I integrate this product into my current system? Would separate S1 & S2 Apps work? Other better solutions?Sonos has been a great system but feeling a little left behind or forced to change... Thanks,BobJ

Can the Sonos Arc display the volume connecter to a Sony A95k thru the e-Arc HDMI port??

Why can’t we just go back to the 14.10 update? it was working perfect then. My system sounds terrible now. Just add a separate volume like you did for Heights for those who want more voice. 

HiI’m about to upgrade a Gen 1 Connect for the Sonos Port. Am I correct in understanding that 24 Bit steaming is only available via Amazon Music, and Tidal is still only CD quality at 16 Bit? 

HiLong story short. I have a Gen 1 Connect. I’m about to upgrade my HiFi system (speakers and amp) and hoping to improve my streaming source (currently using Spotify) to CD quality using TIDAL, Apple or Amazon Music. I may not notice the difference, but want to at least give it a try.The Gen 1 Sonos Connect obviously isn’t suitable for CD quality streaming, so I’m thinking I should upgrade to a Sonos Port and move to the S2 app. I’ve been hesitant to upgrade due to the mixed reviews over the past few of years, and am curious to know if there have been any improvements with the sound quality issues some people have had (either from the unit itself or in the app) since it’s launch 3 years ago. The sales guys in the hifi stores here in Sydney like to push the BlueSound Node, but I’m already invested in Sonos, and happy with it.I’m currently using RCA cables on the Connect and thinking I would possibly use the digital coax on the Port if this would work better with the Amp (Cambridge Audio

I want to listen my fire TV stick through my Sonos Move but I can not get both of them connected. I have succeed with controlling Fire Tv with Alexa from my Sonos but not to play the fire TV on my Sonos, could you please help me? I could not find any solution to this topic in the community. Thanks!

Hi allThe mute on my Arc is now lasting around 10/15 seconds after command atm & I've tried Everything I know to fix it.....Reset,Reaquire with no luck

I know that my Play-speakers ain’t working with Airplay. But, is it necessary to change both to Sonos One SL or will it work if I just change one of them and then make a group (consisting of one Play and one One SL)?

I have a Sonos One in the living room and Sonos One SL in the bedroom.When I am playing songs from my phone (iOS 13.3.1), airplay to either speaker won’t work.The error message I get is > Unable to connect to “Living Room”.However, when I airplay to Apple TV, it works! Any kind soul can help what’s wrong? I try restart my router, speakers and phone. It doesn’t work at all.

Hello again!.I've been using WiFi Analyser and it seems 2.4ghz round my area is chocker blocked where as 5gh is relatively untouched.I have Playbar, Sub, Play:1's, Play One's, Play 3's and Move.If I go over to S2 will all these be able to connect via 5gh and if it came to it can I downloade all back to S1? (I have a Connect S1 only to keep the S1 system).My Move seems to be having the hardest time with connecting it seems.I'm back on Channel one for now.I would like to try a Mesh System really but Sonos doesn't seem to get on with these?.Can S2 do SonosNet in 5ghz band?.Thanks for any comments. 

Sony Bravia KD 75XG95xx.    I can’t get any sound out of my playbar    No matter what I do.   Any ideas please ??

Is Dual Mono available using Sonos Connect Gen 2 via S2 software?

I’m about to purchase a Sonos set up and wanted to check my thinking. I want the Beam (2) and I can connect it to two One SLs for surround sound on the TV.If the TV is off and I ask Alexa to play some music, will the Ones both play the music as well or just the Beam?If so will the sound balance out? The TV will be in the corner and the Ones on either side of the couch facing the TV. It’s a fairly large room too.

Hi all, While these are probably basic questions, I’m new to most of the technologies I’m asking about so It’s a bit overwhelming to search for info when you’re not familiar with the terminology and products 🙁. My current setup consists of older LCD connected to Apple TV and a Denon receiver which is connected to a set of regular speakers. I want to migrate to Smart TV, ditch the Apple TV, and replace the Receiver and speakers with two Sonos Five in the living room with the option of later adding subwoofer, and several One’s spread around the rooms in the house. All speakers (or at least the ones in the living room) will be connected via ethernet. My use cases:Connect my Roon (which is running on a NAS) to Sonos. I’ve already checked that this is possible (with few limitations). Have the option to connect the Smart TV to the speakers in the living room but have it trivial to switch between sound from the TV and speakers. Note, I’m not interested in Home Theatre Surround setup. Regardi

I have a Sonos Roam SL, which I am very new to, therefore I have a lot to learn? I have an Apple Mag Safe charger which I use for my iPhone 13.Is it safe for me to use this Mag Safe charger for my Sonos Roam SL, please?

Hello everyone I have a digital karaoke machine but am having trouble connecting to tv. I have a sonos beam and a sonos port 

Hi. Can I turn down the TV audio whilst watching the TV picture but using the Play Bar for music?

This is crazy! The shuffle button always worked for years and now its gone (With Apple Music when I select my apple music).  But if I go straight to Apple Music, the shuffle button is there. Anyone know how to fix this? I called Sonos and they said they couldn’t help me but would take it under consideration.   Without a shuffle button, I would never have bought my two systems.  Sonos has to do better than that.
