Spaces & Setups

So I have the sonos Arc and decided to get the new 65" Vizio Quantum P Series TV.  Read some tv re iews that showed it had great brightness and it seemed to support all audio formats via eArc (from what i saw on rtings.  I'm not an audio expert, but I just wanted a good TV to hook up to my Arc and that would support whatever audio was sent to it.. Well, everything seemed to work well, but about once a week, the TV would start acting weird..   I could see the picture and sound, but the input and settings button wouldn't be responsive...  when this happened, I couldn't even turn off the TV (even using the physical power button on the TV)..   the only solution was to unplug the TV for about a minute and then plug it back in...  This got annoying fast considering the TV plug is in the back of my entertainment stand.. I'm returning the TV and looking to get a new one..  the Vizio only cost about 1k on sale, but I'm not opposed to spending up to 2k on a tv.  I wax considering the LG oled c1,

Having just bought the Beam (Gen 2), I have it all up and running connected to WiFi and able to play audio through the app like any other speaker.I'm trying to connect it to my TV to work as intended as a soundbar. I go through the couple of steps informing me to plug the HDMI into the ARC port of my TV and into the back of the soundbar, and then the next instruction is "Connecting...". From here, nothing happens. I've waited 30 minutes with no change. I've reset my app, unplugged the soundbar and reconnected it with no joy.Could anybody help me work out how to get it fixed? The TV is 6 years old, but has an ARC HDMI port so I assume I shouldn't be having any issues.

I’ve read articles that say it does and doesn’t have support for HomeKit. Not AirPlay… HomeKit. They’re not the same thing. 

What's up folks?I have an existing Sonos system throughout my home. A couple Play:5s and few Sonos Ones throughout. About a year ago I decided to build a vintage HiFi system. I want to integrate the two systems, so I'm considering picking up a Port. Anyway, long story short, all the line level inputs on my preamp are currently being used. I want to upgrade my cd player and I'm considering a dedicated transport only player (no on board DAC). My question is, since I only have one AUX input, can I connect the Port to my AUX input on my preamp then connect a transport only CD player to the Port. Effectively killing two birds with one stone. Adding streaming to my HiFi system while simultaneously using the port as a DAC for the CD transport? Will this work?Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for your time,Kyle

I cant get my two Sonos one speakers to play any sound from them i have a playbase too and the speakers are fine with that but i cant get surround sound have reset loads of times turned off router unplugged them the only thing that comes out is Alexa when you talk to her so am at a loss

I have a 2021 The Frame TV and have a Playbar connected via an optical cable to the One Connect box. Previous setup was a different Samsung TV and everything else was the same.  My issue comes when I’m watching Apple TV(4K 2nd gen) with this setup.  On the streaming apps I use(Netflix, Hulu, Prime, etc...), it’s a flip of a coin whether or not I will get audio when I click on the video I want to stream.  I can hear the audible noise from the bar when I am moving from app to app or title to title within the apps.  But once I click on the selection, many times, there is no audio.  I have to go back into the app, move across other streaming selections(without clicking), still hear the audible noise when moving across them.  Then I click back on my selection and try again.  It usually takes 3-4 times before the audio kicks back in and then its good for that particular stream.  Pause the video?  Its back to the coin flip on getting audio or not.  When there is no audio, the white volume ind

I want to connect DVD audio wirelessly to my Sonos amp & ceiling speakers via Roam. I think there should be Wi-Fi and or Bluetooth enabled DVD or Bluetooth-ray players out there.Does this sound doable? If so should I go for Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to the Roam?Any other advice welcome!

So, I’m having an extension built and I’m looking for a good quality music system to have integrated. I’m looking at the Sonos Architectural. Just want to know how it works and if it’s worth the money.TIA 

I am setting up a new 15ft x 20ft family room from scratch in my remodeled home. I have already run wiring for two ceiling speakers in the right and left rear of the room. My intent is to use those two ceiling speakers as surrounds for the TV, and as music emitters when the TV is not in use.My hope had been to buy a single Sonos Amp, hook it up to the ceiling speakers, and use the HDMI eARC port on the TV (a new LG C1) to drive the surround signal to the ceiling speakers. I had envisioned only needing the Amp for the surrounds, and just using the TV’s built-in speaker(s?) as the front audio, without springing for a soundbar. (They seem expensive and I’ve never really appreciated soundbars for TV. Not an audiophile. But I would like to have surround sound for movies.)Is this setup possible? Or do I have to have a Beam(gen2) or Arc in order to use the Amp to drive surrounds? (I’m using an Apple TV 4k, latest, for content, if that matters.)Looking around online, it seems like in order to

Is a DAC needed when using Airplay 2 to connect an Apple device to a pair of SONOS 5 speakers?

Hello and Merry Christmas. Is this combination possible? Because i found a used set at good price and i want to make a surroound set. Thanks.

If I plug my Sonos amp directly into my router does it act as a boost creating SonosNet?The boost has been a lifesaver to create SonosNet but if I don’t need it because the amp can do that job I’ll ditch it.

When doing a search for a song, album or artist the sonos app only searches Apple Music: My library and will not search the rest of the Apple Music catalog

I’ve got a Sonos beam (Gen2) a Sonos one (Gen2) and a Sonos/IKEA SYMFONISK picture speaker all operating in 1 room. I want to be able to when I turn my Tv on the Sonos one and the SYMFONISK play instantly with the beam sound bar rather than going into the Sonos app and selecting the speakers I want to play. Is there a way I can add the other 2 speakers to play automatically? 

Hi. Just bought a Beam 2 which is impressive but there is a problem playing a dvd or blue Ray disc. To do that on my Panasonic I need to switch from HDMI 1, my TV, to HDMI 13, the Blueray player. However the TV remote no longer seems to have access to controlling the TV. I have no idea why a sound bar would make my TV remote inactive!I control everything else through my Sky remote but can find no way of actually using the Blueray player.  can anyone help me please?

I subscribed to YouTube Premium so I can listen to my favourite YouTube music on Sonos. However, I am unable to find YouTube Live Streams on Sonos. My favourite DJs often stream live and I want to play those on my Sonos speakers.How can I do this please?

Hello everyone,I’m new to the Sonos ecosystem. I’m potentially going to work with clients with Sonos systems. My job is to “listen” to what they play in order to make reports of what’s been listened. For this I need an output from the speakers to connect to our hardware, which has a minijack input.If I’m not mistaken there’s no outputs available in any of the Sonos speakers, and it seems like the only way would be to purchase a Port and manage all connectivity from there, is that right? Is there any other option to catch the stream? Maybe via IP, bluetooth? I don’t need the best quality for this, and the Port seems like an overkill, pretty expensive solution.Thanks a lot!

I'm looking at getting a Port-compatible cd player to integrate our vast cd collection with our Sonos system. Setting it up looks easy and straightforward, except for one thing: how do I control cd volume other than through the Sonos app? Ideally, the remote controlling cd playback would also control the volume. It's going to be playing almost exclusively over the Beam 2. which already supports my tv remote volume control. So is there a way to get the Beam to receive signals from a 2nd remote?

I have two Sonos Roam speakers for my office and it's always just one speaker that will randomly stop the music and start back up a random amount of time later. I would have them either studio paired or just playing the same station on both speakers within like 15 feet of each other. Does anyone know why this would happen? 

Can I use Airplay2 to play Dolby Atmos songs from Apple Music on my iPhone on the soundbar? I tried it but the soundbar does not recognize it as Dolby Atmos.

If I buy a Sonos Sub from Europe (Germany), can I swap the provided Power Cable (2 pin), for a Power Cable bought in the UK (3 pin plug )? Is it just a straightforward swap?Thanks in advance.

Hi , is anyone from Sonos on here and can check a diagnostic number? I have occasional sound jitter , happens once about every 2 weeks which is strange but it's just done it and this is the number 943072790Or am I better ringing ? Thanks 

I have been on the phone with Sonos support and Samsung support in order to deauthorize a connection I made from Samsung Smartthings to Sonos. It seems that Smartthings keeps the authorizations even after deleting all the speakers from Smartthings. This means that if you connect to one Sonos account you are stuck with it forever.There are no options from the Smartthings side to reset the connection, and there is not indication of this relationship from the Sonos side. I am trying to avoid creating a new smartthings account.. is there are way forward?  

When I save music to My Sonos, where do I go to find that music?
