Spaces & Setups

Ok, here’s my conundrum.I’m purchasing the Sonance - MAG Series 6.1 Outdoor Streaming Sound System with the Sonos AMP. For my TV, I’m assuming I can straight from the AMP to the TV via HDMI and have sound and video. Correct?But, now for the tricky part, how do I go from the AMP to the projector while using an Apple TV? The projector has HDMI ports. Do I need an HDMI switch or Splitter? Or, is there a cleaner solution out there?Thanks!

Hi team.  I have been given a sealed CR200 and was wondering if it is still possible to add it to an existing S1 system?It will be running the original software it was built with (2013).  Is it possible to add and update like a normal player or would it need support intervention? Or possibly not work at all….. I would rather keep it sealed as a collectors item if it is not going to be possible to use it in my S1 system. 

I’m at a rented villa for a month that has two Sonos speakers. I can play their music but want to play mine and understand that I will need to use airplay. My question should all Sonos speakers be discoverable on  a given wifi network?  I’ve tried I think all the troubleshooting tips I’ve seen in this forum but have still had no luck. Anyone have any tips/tricks?.  Thx. 

Using an ipad or Firefox (windows 11) i go to the shop or search for product and click it I see 

Is the store website down for anybody else?I’ve tried multiple devices both on wifi and cellularI’m getting the following message when i try to enter the sonos store  This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it.

The problem nr. 16 since i bought this software mess. How to access my library again?

Which setting should I use for ps5 or Xbox is multi channel pcm the better of the audio formats or do I change it to compressed

I have set up an Amp with a set of tower speakers and sub to a secondary TV, and I am seeing Stereo PCM in the Sonos screen.  Is this the correct audio output I should be receiving?  Dolby Digital and DTS are greyed out on my TV, so all I am able to click is Auto.  I am assuming that since I only have two speakers (plus sub), that stereo is correct?  Or am I missing something that would allow DD?

How do I make my ikea symfonisk a Bluetooth speaker? I was not successful hooking up to wifi   While on holidays. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 

Brand new NAS drive, 3800 tracks, Sonos fails the initial update after about 10 minutes, saying the drive is no longer available. Except it is, to any other device on the network. Permissions are wide open.Not sure where to even start with this...

LG CX with latest update; Arc/Sub/Ones setup 14.0.4; and Apple TV 4k 15.3. All of these had recent updates. I now get no Dolby Atmos everything is MC PCM 7.1 not even with Apple Music anymore. I never was able to get any 5.1 Dolby versions. Any ideas what happened and how to fix? LG has pass through and eArc with Apple TV hdmi being bitstream and eArc hdmi 2 blanked out showing pcm with me unable to change. Apple TV settings haven’t changed but I am unsure if I am missing something there.  also it is really soft, like everything. I have to turn up volume to 70/80% to hear anything. 

Is Sonos planning to give us the ability to stereo pair 2 Sonos Move’s via bluetooth? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!

Hi, I'm having an extension built and part of it will look very much like the below pic with a slanted ceiling, bifold doors and velux windows. I'm planning on getting a Sony A80J, Sonos Arc and Sub. I've read that the Arc should ideally placed in a room with a flat ceiling.  Given my room, should I consider something else or will the Arc just not sound quite as good as it could? Appreciate any advice.   Thanks, Barm. 

Hi team , quick question , the Sonos hdmi cable I have for my beam 2 is too long , the beam sits in front of my TV and basically goes under the TV  to the hdmi socket , is it possible to coil up the hdmi cable and secure it with a velcro cable tie Or can I use any other shorter hdmi cable ?? Thanks 

Hi team, Can i pair a Arc or Beam Gen 2 with Play:3 surrounds and get Amazon Dolby Atmos music?From what i’ve read the Play:3s wont do Ultra HD but no mention of Dolby Atmos Music. Cheers

I can hear the sound effects when playing Dolby Atmos music on Amazon Music Unlimited or on movies that support Dolby Atmos but that is only on the horizontal plane.I think that the 2 upward firing speakers only become operational when Dolby Atmos audio is being played?If true I can't seem to be able to hear the upward firing sound i.e. in the vertical plane no matter what level I set the Height Level bar from -10 to +10Anyone else experience this?By the way I can't use the Trueplay feature as I only have Android devices, a smartphone and tablet.Would this have anything to do with it?Cheers 🍻 

While watching a Viaplay serie today the Sonos Arc started to translate the spoken stream to russian with a small delay. Anyone else experienced this issue recently.

Hi all , the hdmi cable that comes with the beam gen 2 , is it an ethernet hdmi cable ?? The eArc hdmi input says it needs a hdmi cable with ethernet , thanks 

Hi.I have a Sonos system in my house use by all the family members (using both by App and by PC).I now would like to implement a second Sonos system in my working office, but I do not want that my family members can access the Sonos Office location.Is it possible? In other words, can I create a two separate system that only myself can manage both, whilst my family can continue to access only the house system?many thanks.

Good afternoon,I want to make sure i set up the sonos properly. Help would be appreciated.I want to set up 6 in ceiling speakers to be used for music (2 of which will be in the living room in the rear)My questions are as follows:Will I need more than one amp? Can i use optimal cable to connect these to amp or is RCA preferable? If so, which brand is best; I want to use the 2 in the living room for surround in the future- is it possible to do this? I want to be able to use it for surround when i want and for music with paired with the other speakers when i want to. How can i do this?Thank you so much!

I have a very basic, traditional surround setup in my basement. My Tv is wall mounted with a single HDMI out from the A/V receiver to the TV hidden in the walls so no wires exposed.  My gear is all sitting in a cabinet beneath the TV. My back speakers no longer work and I’m unclear if it’s a wiring problem or because my old Denon amplifier is failing. Replacing wires is a non-starter, and if I have to replace the amp I’m thinking maybe I just go wireless. I have lots of Sonos speakers all around my house and they’re great, so I understand how Sonos works but I’m confused about what I would need to buy or if it will even work.Currently, I have 4 components (Cable, Apple TV, Western Digital Media Player, Wii) connected to my home theatre receiver and a universal remote that controls the receiver input to switch the audio and video on the TV.  The amplifier is a Pioneer VSX-1019AH.  TV is an LG NANO86UNA (55 inch) that supports Dolby ATMOS and eArc.  Simple….Question is: how do I replace

Is it normal that a Play 5 gen1 speaker reach end of life in 5 years 2 months?

Can I use my Roam in a steam shower? I’m a wheelchair user and am having a roll-in shower built equipped with a steam-bath. I would of course place the speaker opposite of the steam nozzle. I’ve used cheaper Bluetooth speakers designed for the shower in the past and they worked OK. One speaker’s  suction cup released, it fell and stopped working. The other speaker was just not worth listening to. My original idea was to use the Roam in the shower to make a phone call in case of an emergency as I would with the Google Mini. That option is not available. I haven't really used the Roam in my present shower. It is equipped with a steam-bath but, s too small to steam in for a long period of time.  Regular exposure to steam might be asking too much. thanks

I’ve read online that older Sonos devices (without Airplay2) will not appear appear in Homekit.  However, once you add a single Airplay2 compatible Sonos device, it will act as a bridge, enabling all Sonos devices to appear in Homekit.I have a house full of older Sonos devices that don’t support Airplay2 (but all are S2 compatible).  And then I have two devices that DO support Airplay2 - a Sonos Move, and an Ikea Symfonisk.  The Move and the Symfonisk appear in Homekit, but none of the legacy devices are there, which contradicts what I’m reading online.Hoping someone here can tell me if what I’ve read is incorrect, or if something is wrong with my setup.Thanks 

Is there a way to quickly level all the rooms/zones in a group without having to adjust the volume of each one individually? For example, I start playing music and select “Everywhere” and the volumes of each speaker/zone will be at a different level after their last individual uses. Then when I adjust the group volume they adjust proportionally from their individual starting points. I’d like a way to quickly normalize them so they are all at “volume level 15” rather than 11, 22, 19 & 28. If there isn’t a way, there should me (in my opinion)
