Spaces & Setups

I have an Arc + sub + 2 ones right now but am moving into a room where visually a sound bar would not be ideal. There are windows or doors on almost every wall. I’m planning to have a projector screen drop down when needed, which will cover a window, but otherwise would like to avoid seeing any hardware at all. So I’m wondering if I could do everything with in ceiling speakers. Can I do two Amps, 1 for the front pair to function instead of my Arc and a second rear pair as surrounds? And how terrible will this sound to me since I am currently used to the Arc?

I’ve expanded my Sonos system with a Roam SL, and when at home on the wifi, that all works well. When on a remote, fairly frequently visited, location I was hoping to make use of:Roam SL Iphone S2 with playlists and servicesbasically I was hoping to BT pair the Roam SL with my phone on which I have S2, and from S2 control the Roam SL, and play my family’s all playlists stored on Sonos/S2. But so far S2 looks empty/inaccessible as of content. Am I dreaming up this possibility, or am I just not setting it up correctly? 

Bonjour,Avez-vous trouvé une solution pour connecter un videoprojecteur à une ARC ?J’envisage d’acheter un videoprojecteur connecté qui fonctionne sous Android, auriez vous une idée ? Merci d’avance pour vos réponses.Olivier.

If the Sonos (S2) app is reading Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 (or7.1) am I, in fact, receiving an Atmos signal?  Or should the app be reading “Atmos”?

BonjourJ'ai 3 sonos era100Je veux diffuser en bluetooth sur les 3 mais je ne peux pas grouper les 3.Comment faire ? Merci

Is there any possibility to connect sonos ray to samsung freestyle? Moderator note: added titular question to post

I’m looking for advice. I need a great Sonos setup for my daughters new hair salon. It’s 1700 sq ft. What do I need? Also looking for professional install in Bradley Beach, NJ

My samsung phone and the Sonos system is on the same network but won't connect. A router restart will fix i but only until the next day / or if i leave and come back. Once i restart the router everything i fine, but only temporary. Ant good Ideas? Is it the phone or.router?

Hello! I moved into a new house that has passive  speakers already installed: front left/right, back left/right. I’m trying to determine how I could use them with my existing Beam. From my research it seems like my options might beBuy a Sonos Amp for passive speakers and set up passive speakers as surround for Beam (I think only 2 passive speakers can be used because Beam is already a 2.1 device?) Buy a receiver and Sonos Port for passive speakers (I’m not sure if this would allow for surround sound with Beam?) Don’t use passive speakers and just use Beam.Thanks for any advice!

I am considering buying a few Move speakers to use both indoors and outdoors depending on how I am entertaining. The idea is to put one Move for background music in each of the kitchen, dining room, and study. Then, if I want to entertain in the backyard, I’ll place all three Moves outdoors. (I have a large backyard, so three Moves will not be overkill.) I do not plan on creating stereo pairs inside or out. My backyard has strong WiFi coverage. Will I run into any issues (e.g. audio syncing) if the Moves are not assigned to the same room when using together outside within the same area? I know I can group rooms to make controlling them easier. I am asking about audio quality. I expect it will be fine, but wanted to check. 

Hello! Since the total outage of Radioplayer a few days ago, Radioplayer service on Sonos app is still not working (at least for me), even if the service seems to be up and operating normally.I resetted the app, removed and reinstalled Radioplayer service but seems not to be helpful. Can anyone tell me if there are still problems? Other services works fine!ThanksAndrea 

Hi, does anyone know if I can use the Sonos Amp Gen 1 to listed to my vinyl turntable (not sonos) to my new Sonos One speakers?Thank you

I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the S2 app, rebooting my MacBook Pro and the router and NOTHING WORKS!! I keep getting the same error message that sonos quit unexpectedly. Sonos has been working with occasional crashes but now, I can’t even open the app. Please help!

I own a sonos Arc.sub gen 3 and 2 era 300’s and im trying to figure out how much power they draw when in use.

Hello all I moved into a house that has speakers in the ceiling in most of the rooms (about 7 rooms?) - there is a CD player and DAB hooked up but I can’t see an amp. The below is what’s there.If I replaced the CD or DAB with a Sonos Port, would that work?I understand that each room can’t be isolated with one product but I should be able to say set all downstairs speakers to the Port input.Any help appreciated.

On my new ERA 100 the voice services light is so dim as to be useless in a normally lit room. Support tells me this is not a defect. I also noticed that light will get brighter temporarily while I touch and hold the voice services icon. What’s that about?

HiFor playing music in a large kitchen diner (parties and high-quality listening) I’m considering buying a FIVE to sit on a shelf central on the long wall, then put a ONE SL and a ONE at the extreme sides of the room to create a wider sound field in the room (without the expense of 2x FIVES). (Note: I thought a ONE would be useful as it will have a mic for smart speaker purposes).Question: Can I set the ONE and ONE SL as a stereo pair, and have the FIVE playing in stereo to get this wide sound field?Would this work? 

Just got Beam gen 2, the effects and music is okay but the speech volume is very low when it comes to atmosUsing eARC.The LG Nano956NA speakers ( speech ) sounds much better than arc at volume level 20 - 30 while Beam sound 50 to 80.I m android user so dont have that trueplay options.I tried loudness enabled and disabled didnt see much difference,Speech enhancement is enabled.Bar is in bedroom so not even in a open space. Sadly i can only use TV spakers and HDMI arc individually to use tv speakers i need to switch sound  bar ro optical digial out adapterAny suggestions what i m doing wrong ?

I don’t think iti is fair to impose to the buyers of sonos speakers unsolicited advertising.It isn’t consistent with the idea that we have bought top of the line speakers.It isn’t consistent with proper customer care and… have you listened to the ads?In German and Italian they are unbelievably primitive.  Truly ugly stuff.I don’t think it is a money spinner for sonos. Just a stupid embarassment.

Currently use Sonos in rooms where I can easily access them.Am looking to mount new speakers about 8ft up in close to ceiling for a sunroom.  Although I can always get a ladder if there was an issue, ideally am looking to have these mounted and connected to power and then remote control them from Sonos App/remotely.Thoughts?  Recommendations?  2x Era 100 or 300 better than a single sound bar?Thanks in advance

I would like to listen to TV audio through my Sonos Port and other 4 Sonos Amps.  I currently have a surround sound receiver playing TV audio and the receiver is connected to the Sonos port.  I was told by Best Buy that the only way to do this is use a sonos sound bar but that defeats the purpose of the receiver / surround sound system.  In a perfect world I would be able to watch a television channel (perhaps a football game) on Directv and hear the sound throughout all of the Sonos amps in my home.

My sonos roam is making AN UNBEARABLE NOISE on random moment, i don’t turn it on anymore and i don’t plan to.The unit is in perfect condition, i am terribly disappointed. 

Good morning, I have a beam gen 1 with mini sub and two symfonisk ikea etagere in surround. I would like to exchange the beam gen1 for a sonos beam gen2 or arc to enjoy dolby atmos and truehd, is there much difference on the sound quality between dolby digital 5.1 and dolby digital plus, dolby digital true HD and atmos please? my config 55 inch tv Living room 30m² length 14 meters width 4 meter sofa distance from tv about 3 meters

Just purchased the arc for infront of our TV that is in a high ceiling living room.  I want something behind the couch; however the open floor plan/kitchen will limit me to ERA 100s.  There are however two inwall old speakers above the couch and I just saw the amp and inwall set up.  Can I combine the amp and arc?  Will that give a good surround sound?   plan for the subwoofer down the line at some point as well.
