Dear community,I would like to bring up a topic previously discussed, but since DTS support has been added to the Beam.It has been discussed here, when DTS wasn´t supported yet. sound from sony blu-ray ubp-x800m2 | Sonos Community I am trying with no success to get sound from the sony blu-ray player ubp-x800m2 directly to the Beam via the second dedicated HDMI audio out on the player. Reason being that when I use the ARC function of my TV (the older Panasonic 50VT50e from 2012 or so), everything it outputs via ARC is downsampled to stereo. Now I have read that the Beam requires an ARC signal, which seems to defy the whole point of a dedicated HDMI audio out on the player. Is it correct to assume that this direct connection between the player and the Beam fails because some part of the ARC protocol is not met?Would it be the same if I buy a Sonos Arc? Thank you for your help :-) Edit: I just found the option in the app to continue without ARC and use the optical adapter to HDMI option.

I have the old Sonos and am upgrading.  Probably going with immersive Arc, some Play 5's, a Move, etcc..  Looking to play music throughout house and also play sound through our LG Smart TV in the main living room. I may also use a Beam for another TV>  My question:  Is it relatively easy to switch back and forth between Sonos playing the TV and playing music?

I currently have a Sonos Beam (Gen 2). I have also ordered a Sonos Amp so that I can connect my turntable to the Sonos system. My hope was that I could connect a 3rd party subwoofer to the Sonos Amp and integrate it into the Sonos system for music AND the home theatre system (just the Beam).Some sleuthing has revealed that my idea might not work. See this LINK (Sonos Q&A).Can anyone here chime in to advise whether this works or not? Simply put, I want my setup to be: TV connected to Beam via eARC Amp connected to Turntable, bookshelf speakers (which flank the Beam) and 3rd Party SVS SB-1000 Subwoofer - Subwoofer to work with both the music and the TV (Beam) Three Sonos Ones spread throughout the house for music (and listening to the turntable) If this doesn't work, I'm probably going to cancel my order for the Amp and order a Connect instead because my bookshelf speakers are powered.Thanks in advance.

I have 5 Sonos speakers.  When I play music from the Sonos app, I can control which speakers the sound is sent to.  When I try and play music through Airplay, if I select one speaker, it plays to multiple speakers.  Is there a way to fix this?

Can the speakers be connected to a record player wirelessly?

Hi,My setup is as follows:1 x Sonos One in “Bathroom”1 x Sonos One in “Bedroom”1 x Sonos One in “Nursery Room”1 x Sonos One in the “Office”1 x Sonos ARC, Sonos SUB (3rd Gen) and 2 x Sonos SL in the “Living Room”, where I have my TV, which also has an Apple TV 4K (2nd Gen) plugged in to it. All rooms have Philips Hue lights as well. The name of the rooms are set up as stated in the quotation marks. Up until now, I have used Google Assistant to send voice commands and it has been working OK, with the exception of not being able to control my Apple TV with it, obviously. I just got a HomePod Mini as a present, which I have placed in the Living Room, same place and want to be able to use it as a voice command interface, to for example, “Hey Siri, play music in Living Room” or “Hey Siri, play music in Bathroom”. What happens is, Siri plays music on the HomePod Mini instead of the actual speakers in the rooms mentioned. I am able to control the lights with Siri in specific rooms, but music i

Bonjour,actuellement en possession d'une barre de son gen 2.Je souhaiterais optimiser mon système d'écoute en ajoutant une paire d'enceintes pour un son surround. j'ai lu plusieurs forums sans trouver de réponse à ma situation.Voici ma situation : ma barre de son est dans mon salon qui fait 40m2. la barre de son (Gen 2) se situe contre un mur en plein centre et à environ 2m50-3m se situe mon canapé d'où je regarde la télé. mon projet serait d'installer les enceintes surround dans les coins supérieurs du mur (les enceintes seront espacées d'environ 6m et à une hauteur inférieur à 3m) qui est en face de la télé. Le mur en question se situe à environ 5-7m de mon canapé. est-ce que cette configuration est possible ? et est-ce que j'aurais un bon rendu surround ?Merci d'avance !

I hope someone can help.I am looking at purchasing a new set of Sonos one for my rear speakers. Due to my current home set up i use both goggle and Alexa voice assistance.my question isCan I set these speakers up as rears and activate one speaker with Google and the other with Alexa or can you only have one voice assistant in the whole setup therefore meaning I could buy a one and a one SL and use these instead

I just purchased a Sonos arc and I have to watch youtubetv at over 50 volume and the. Can only watch YouTube at 20 or less for the same level sound. I have a Vizio p75 tv and have it hooked up with the provided HDMI cable. 

I converted a vinyl album to an MP3 file and added it to my music library on my MacBook Pro. It plays on my MacBook, but when I try to play it on Sonos it won't play.  I have updated my music library, and the album appears in Sonos, but won't play. When I try to play it I get a short blip (like the scratch at the beginning of putting a need on the vinyl)  and then an error message. What should I do?

When the feature, where Volume is indicated in percentage & Equalizer is displayed on home screen, will be available in Android S2 app

I recently got  a new place and would like to set up with Sonos eco system. I want to make sure if I get the followingLiving room (TV) - ARC, Sub Gen 3, One (total 4 - 2 front and 2 back)Bedroom (TV) - Beam, One (2 total) Office (Computer) - One (two total) 3 other bedrooms(future) additional OnesWill I be able to control them individually by room with two TVs and office computer playing at the same time?   Can multiple users take care playing music by the room? Just like first question but via Spotify and not TV Do I need anything else to make sure I can do all the above items but need additional Sonos devices possibly?And I am assuming it is possible to  play by one user with all sonos devices.   

I have a LG HU70LA projector with one HDMI port and a second HDMI eARC port. I have just bought a Sonos AMP and would like to connect my projector’s audio to the AMP (and connected speakers) while also having my Roku Ultra connected to the projector for the video / audio source stream.Could I used the standard HDMI port to connect my Roku Ultra to the projector and use the second HDMI eARC port to connect the projector to the Sonos AMP for sound? Would this send a Dolby Atmos signal to the Sonos AMP? Both the Roku Ultra and my projector support Dolby Atmos.Interested to hear everybody’s thoughts!

Whenever Sonos updates my personnal library from the Music app on my iMac, Sonos creates a iTunes folder with a «iTunes Music Library.xml» file.  What it is useful to ?

Wifi operator shanged and now the device can not be plugged back to system?What can I Do to connect?

My ‘Sonos 1’ app has stopped accessing my Synology DiskStation music folder after the recent DSM 7.0 update. It seems many others have had the same problems and one way around this is to enable NTLMv1 authentication in: ‘Files Services - SMB - Advanced Settings - Others’ on my Synology NAS. The only problem with doing that is that it increases significantly the risk of external attacks! Can someone please tell me how I can avoid this critical issue, or if there will be a fix in the near future from Sonos on the Sonos1 app?  I cannot use the Sonos 2 app because I have several units in the house which are not compatible. Thanks in advance

Hi so I am wanting to set up smart speakers throughout the house for music and additionally add a turntable to the system. I would also like to get a sound bar for the tv. I would like to know if this concept will work. I was looking to get the beam and turntable set. I would set the beam to the tv and put the turntable in one room. I would use the five speaker (that comes with turntable set) in another room. Will the sound bar be able to connect to the turntable? Will I be able to play records to both rooms? Will the tv be able to play in both rooms? Thanks 

I’m trying to figure out what adapter to use for hooking up my PlayBar that’s only optical to the USB port on my TV, any suggestions? Thanks 

I have a fair number of Sonos speakers throughout my house which can be thought of in 4 zones: upstairs, downstairs, garage, and patio. There is rarely, if ever, a case when I want all speakers on at the same time, so I would like to disable the ‘Everywhere’ default speaker group and only use my own. Is that possible?

CONECTO en Salon:  Barra de sonido beam (2ª gen.) + sonido envolvente con creado con 2 Sonos One.Podría utilizar para reproducir musica sólo los 2 Sonos One, como par stéreo, sin utilizar la Barra de sonido beam?gracias

This might be a stupid question, but I am pretty new to all of this. I have a Sonos beam with the woofer and two Sonos ones in a basement set up. Is there any way that I can create a room for just the one speaker that is back by the bar area? Ideally I would like to play music on that after the kids have gone to bed and not have the whole surroundsound system blasting music and keeping them all up. Or is that speaker permanently tied to the basement set up that I currently have and that is all I can do with it?  thanks!!

Does anyone know of a headphone amplifier that can decode bitstream audio?The ones i have tried don't decode it and output the just digital noise. TV won't allow the use of PCM via optical while sending bitstream 5.1 to the beam.  Tried using audio extractor and that didn't work either.
