Hi can you pair a turntable to 2 sonos 5’s ?, I know you have to wire 1 in , but will it then play on both speakers????

Can the Roam Portable Smart Speaker be paired with my ARC sound bar?

Replace Russound keypads with Sonos? I have about a dozen of these in different rooms. Is there a way I could replace them and migrate to Sonos? https://www.crutchfield.com/S-5pfAXBlKNTJ/p_543MDKC6/Russound-MDK-C6.html?XVINQ=GLX

If i hook up the port to my reciever and wired system will i also be able to use the arc and the sub to play music?  Essentially I’d like all speakers to fire as I stream to the port. Two front wired and two back wired along with ARC and Sub. Can that be done?

I have a new Sonos Arc ,sub and rear speakers. Which I am very pleased with it I have a few of issues that i would like some help with . How do I set the volume levels to be different for TV/ films and just music. The volume I need for TV is much higher than for music ( radio- streaming) so if I play music in the morning it comes on very very loud and its annoying . Can I set presets so music starts at one level and TV at another. In some films the dialogue is impossible to follow ( not all films) as the background sound are over powering. I read there is a dialogue enhancer but i cant find one or any way to cut back the background sounds.  In some programmes there speech is no quite in sync -especially on channel 4 programmes. I have set the dialogue delay to 0 . Its not much of a delay and only really noticeable when its close ups on people.Any ideas what I can do to solve thee issues?Thanks   

HiBest position to mount the Arc? Above or below the TV?

I am traveling and brought my Sonos Roam. I connected my smart phone to my hotel’s wifi, and assumed my Roam would communicate with my phone via Bluetooth. When that didn’t work, I attempted to connect the Roam to the hotel wifi to repeat the Bluetooth pairing process. To connect to the hotel wifi, the  end user must complete two separate fields: last name, and room number. The Sonos S2 software provides a single field for a password, so my Roam remains linked to my home wifi and I can’t renew the Bluetooth pairing. I disconnected my phone from the hotel wifi in hope that would make the bluetooth connection work. Oddly enough, my phone does appear to be paired to the Roam, but I can’t play music or connect to a service. How can I fix this?

HiI have recently moved my setup and seemingly reset some settings as I'm no longer getting 5.1 from any Apple TV app.Internal to the TV apps are running 5.1 but anything through the ATV is stereo PCM…I've tried forcing the audio format to be changed to 5.1 through the ATV menu which seems to work but not for all apps, so I'd like to fix it properly if I can.Any other settings I should look at?

Hi,With growing systems containing different types of components there would be great value in being able to combine these components in different ways depending on use and without having to manually reconfigure the system.Specifically, what I would like to request a feature that allows pre-defined configurations (groups) at the level of individual components. Here is an illustrative example:Group A: Arc + Subwoofer + Amp A (for rear speakers)Group B: Amp B + SubwooferGroup C: Amp A + SubwooferThe above reflects an actual setup I have in our home. The different combinations would optimize the use of my Sonos equipment e.g., for watching TV (Group A), listening to music in the living room (Group B) or listening to music in the kitchen (Group C).I have seen numerous similar requests in the forums. What are the chances of getting this implemented?Kind regards,Peter

Can Sonos Roam connect/disconnect to an already paired Bluetooth phone by google assistant voice command rather than manually connecting from phone's Bluetooth settings? I have a JBL Link which is a similar speaker and I just have to say - "Ok Google, connect phone" and it automatically connects to my phone. Does Roam have a similar feature?

My Sonos Arc purchased in 2020, tonight suddenly started to make low alarming sound every few seconds.I unplugged and plugged back in but still continued.any thoughts?

Spotify has added a lyrics feature where you swipe up on the song playing and the lyrics appear highlighting the lines being sung.Sonos has recently added a numeric indication to the sliding volume scale, when operating from an iPhone a haptic is also added that you feel when the volume is being adjusted.It’s interesting that the lyrics feature only appears when your streaming directly from the Spotify app. When streaming Spotify via the Sonos app, the lyrics feature doesn’t appear. I usually always stream from the Sonos app so that’s a bit of a bummer.The volume control feature and haptic only appear when streaming from the Sonos app.  I’ve always streamed Spotify from the Sonos app because most of the time I’m doing multi-room and use radio apps so out of habit stick with that.  Is there any possibility the lyrics feature will ever be available when streaming Spotify from the Sonos app?

I wanted to buy some stands which are 71.99 on offer on the Sonos store but when I add them while logged in it shoots the price back up to 89.99 in the basket. Anyone else seeing this issue?

I just purchased the Sonos Beam.I have a Samsung Curved 65” TV connected with 1 Cable to the Samsung One Connect box (BN91-14846E). So from the TV to the Samsung  One Connection box where all HDMI’s connections such as the AT&T DirecTv receiver.and the HT-D5300 Sound system are all interconnected.Before purchasing the Sonos Beam, my sound came from the Samsung HT-D5300 5.1 Channel Blue-ray home theater system. With new Sonos Beam, I get sound from the TV show we are watching including Netflix/Amazon Prime etc. via Sonos Beam except when I play a movie from the HT-D5300 blue ray/DVD player.  I have 1 HDMI cable from that sound system to the Samsung All-In-One-Connect. I even connected an Infra-Red cable from that HT-D5300 Sound system to the AT&T Infra-Red but no sound while trying to play the blue ray/DVD player.  I have connected the Sonos Beam directly to the HT-D5300 sound system Infra-Red port but no sound while playing the DVD.Any assistance to get sound from our HT-D5300

Can we connect Sonos Arc with  One SL + One to make them 5.1 together.what I mean is one of friend has just bought  Sonos Arc but back home he has One SL and One so can we a proper 5.1 setup or a stereo setup.  

We have Sonos home config with several of the older generation of devices (Play:1, Play:3, and Soundbar). We'd like to make these easier to access from our Apple devices, so am contemplating buying e.g. a Sonos ONE based on the claim that this will enable AirPlay to control all the speakers. However posts like these ~3 years definitely suggest that the exact operating functionality and compatibility was not clear:How will extending AirPlay work Access to AirPlay 2 when using One as surround speakrSince it's been 2+ years since this was released, I'm hoping to now understand how this will works and (most importantly) any limitations or "gotchas" we should be ware of (e.g. potentially relative to speaker positioning, models, or grouping). For example:Will this work if I'm closest to one of the existing speakers, potentially out of range from the new Sonos ONE? Will it work if the speakers are part of a group? What if they are not part of a group? Will this work if the speakers are playin

two months since Apple’s iPhone 13 release and Trueplay is still not available to these devices. We all know techinical difficulty is not that hard, so the question is - are Sonos and Apple’s relationship that bad now?

Sonos Connect S2 devices (and I assume Port) seem to be down sampling all HD data to 44.1khz  (e.g. 24/48 khz local FLACs) through the digital out (e.g. Coaxial) to external DACs.  i.e. you cant get a HD digital signal out of your Sonos kit !!I cant see the bit-depth on my DAC, so unsure if this is also being downgraded to 16 bit (but assume 16/44.1).I assume this is the same for  streamed services also (e.g. Qobuz, Amazon HD etc.) being digitally downgraded to 16 / 44.1.Whats the point??!!!   This would be surprising in 2015 . . . . .   but 2021 !!!    I have had cheap Android STB for the last 10 years that digitally passthrough (up to 24/192, DSD files etc.).  Even services like HEOS etc. will send an untouched digital bit signal to the Receiver / DAC. Can this option please be added (I understand coax, optical are bandwidth limited - but even 24/192 Stereo should be OK).   i.e. digital pass-through, or sampling at the original source rate at least! Include it as an option please!   

Hoping someone could advise on what the depth (front to back) of the flat portion of the Sonos Arc is? Thank you. 

Hi. Sonos rocks. But I keep loosing wifi to my speaker while in my home bar. It’s not that far from the router but I can’t bring either any closer to each other. I’m fitting a mesh system to my house. Will the TP link deco M9 work ok with it. 

I intend to wall mount a 85 inch Samsung Frame TV into a large room with ceiling mounted Sonos front and rear speakers at an elevation of 11.5 feet. Obviously a clean look is what I am looking for so I would like to conceal a subwoofer if you recommend it . Any recommendations on ceiling mounted subwoofer or concealment as well as equipment and distances. TV viewing area is about 12 by 12 feet at a distance of about 10 feet from tv wall.

Hello all...looking in to buying the Sonos turntable and just wanting to know what I would need other than my speaker setup that I already have. My current setup is Beam, Sub, 3 1’s gen. 2 , roam and travel speakers. 

Do you feel pressure from the Playbar when there are loud sounds from the movie you are watching? 

Hi. Im trying to use my Sonos Port with Denon Amp. (DENON DRA-800H) with no luck. There is no sound from input (output works). I’ve connected Port using RCA to CD 2 IN port, no sound. Then I’ve used COAX cable to connect to CD IN port, no sound as well. Im sure that Port is streaming, because when I connect it to Phono input, the sound plays as it should. Any help help? 

Microsoft upgraded me to Windows 11 with asking, and then Sonos keeps on telling me to check for updates -- I do this, it finds one, downloads and installs. Then asks me to check again, and downloads and installs…. and so on, and on. I cannot get to the music library on the PC; one the phone it no longer finds the music library, and the process of trying to connect via the phone is impossibly complicated with instructions written by someone who really doesn’t seem to like customers very much. Any ideas? I just want to listen to some music……..
