I've got a pair of ERA 100s purchased in Australia; they served me well.Now, i am relocated to Mainland China, and i would like to adding a Sonos Arc Ultra to my new home.I've read some posts from social media realized due to the different Wlan requirement, the Sonos Arc Ultra Mainland China version will not paired with the ERA 100s I bought in AUS.Now I am wondering which region version I should purchase?It's a bit unrealistic for me to travel back to AUS just for the ARC Ultra.I saw some post states the Hongkong and Australia have the same WLan configuration.So, If i purchased the Sonos Arc Ultra in Hong Kong or Macau, and I brought it into Mainland China, will I be able to pair all devices together?
Since installing the MacOS Golden Gate Beta, the Sonos app will not find the system.Firewall is off, so the only help in the Sonos app about that is of no effect.I know the app is vintage anyway, but has anyone worked out how to get out working?I know everyone will say use the web app, but it’s crap. I want the app and its native experience with notifications etc.
I have sonosnet disabled and have the supplied fios CR1000B, extender and moca adapter all connected as my home networking setup. The Sonos one sl is now connected to the moca adapter upstairs and will no longer show up on the network or in the Sonos app. On WiFi it comes back no problem. Any ideas or troubleshooting tips are welcomed. Thanks
I just purchased the Sonos beam ultra. apart from a load of issues setting up the soundbar and it’s not showing in the Sonos app sometimes I’m really confused on how to use this device. I have a turntable connected via Bluetooth and a tv connected via earc. But the app doesn’t show me an option to switch between the two. I need to physically go to the soundbar and press the Bluetooth button to hear the turntable and even this not always working. I really miss my Bose soundbar.
Long-time Sonos owner, first post here because I'd love to see this happen. My situation: My whole home runs on Home Assistant, including a custom local voice assistant that already controls my Sonos system (native integration + the new MCP).The workaround: I built a custom Alexa Skill just so I can say "Alexa, ask Jarvis to..." — using Amazon as a laggy, cloud-based relay to reach an assistant running on my own network.What I want is simple: Say my own wake word to my Sonos speaker and have the audio (or just the transcript) handed off to Home Assistant on my LAN, with the response played back on that same speaker.Here's why it's feasible: The MCP is already half the job done. Sonos 27 lets third-party AIs reach into my Sonos system. This is just the reverse direction. The HA community would build everything else (wake words, pipelines) — we only need an opt-in hook for the mic stream. I'd be happy to beta test anything in this direction.Thanks for considering it.
Hi Everyone,I am somewhat torn between choosing the Sonos Five or the Sonos Era 300. So for me the idea of upgrading to these speakers began because I currently use the first-generation Apple HomePodthe bigger one’s which is remarkably good for its size and delivers strong bass that I enjoy most. I have two HomePods paired in stereo and use them for movies, where they provide a virtual Dolby Atmos effect. My issue is that, although the sound is excellent there is just a slight bass shortfall I keep noticing; this sparked my upgrade thoughts. But the quality such small speakers offers is out of the world !I once heard the first-generation Sonos Five and thought of returning to it, but I realized it is not a smart speaker. It lacks voice input and will not function like the HomePods. It is simply a very good speaker with strong sound, and since I am not heavily invested in a home theatre or a dedicated TV setup, I move my HomePods between private music listening in my bedroom and movie s
I have a Sonos Beam Gen 2 that I am trying to hook up to a brand new TCL 98” QML7 Pro LED TV from Costco. They are connected by a 6 ft U-Green 8K Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 cable rated for 48 Gbps, eARC, HDR-10, Dolby, and HDCP 2.2/2.3.No matter what I try, I cannot get my Sonos system to recognize the eARC port on my TV. TV Setup on the Sonos App keeps saying “eARC not recognized”.I have tried resetting the TV and the Sonos Beam 2 to Factory settings. I have tried turning CEC on and off. I have tried adjusting audio output from Auto & eARC. I have tried adjusting transmission mode to Pass-Through.I don’t know what else to do to fix this situation. I have a new huge top of the line TV and an amazing soundbar, but I can’t use them with each other. I’m stuck using my TV’s stock Bang & Olufsen built-in speakers. Which, while good for TV built-in speakers, it still defeats the purpose of my Sonos surround sound set up with 2 Sonos One’s and the Beam 2.Sonos Community, please help me
I ordered Sonos arc ultra from Reliance digital. It was a box in a box delivery. At the time of delivery, the delivery person dropped the box at one end while taking it from his van and then dragged it on the road and on the stairs.Will this mishandling can cause damage to the soundbar may be in the form of minor defect or a micro defect which may become significant after some time? After a week long painstaking efforts, I convinced reliance digital to replace the product. But now they are saying that replacement is not available, the product will be available after a month or so. I spent a lot of time to get the good deal during this purchase. This deal is not applicable after a month. Can you advice me what to do?
Will Sonos have an app for the new Apple HomeView?
Will the Sonos Era 100 SL speaker fit on the Sonos 1 stand?

I’m considering replacing my Beam Gen 2 with the Ultra, however I cannot find adequate information on how I would have to mount it to my TV. My Beam 2 is mounted to my LG TV with this mount: Mounting Dream Soundbar Mount Designed for SONOS Beam Ideally there would be a mount that could attach to the existing brackets so I don’t have to remove my 77” TV from it’s swivel wall mount. I’ve not had any luck finding information about this. Ideas?.
When switching from TV swap back to TV audio the Sonos system does not to go to the previous volume level.So for example im listening to on my Sonos Arc and set the volume to 1 of 100, then I turn on the Ace Ultra and use TV swap, listen on the headphones then later I turn off TV swap or turn off the Ace Ultra, as soon as the audio goes back to the Arc The volume is now 30 of 100, blasting instant loud sound through the house!This kinda defeats the purpose of TV swap because when it's turned off the soundbar goes full ham and blasts loud sounds through the househope this is just a bug that can be fixed by Sonos? The Soundbar should remember the volume it's set at and not go to some random high volume when TV swap from the Ace Ultra is disconnected Now I have a question too - when watching a movie from streaming service or Blu-ray that has Atmos audio, should I use Spatial Audio on the Ace Ultra? The headphones are receiving Atmos audio from the Arc, does it pass through surround audi
Hi,I have about 5 cm, but then i read 10 cm after installed. Is that an issue? The tv only goes half way over the soundbar.See my installation belowhttps://ibb.co/TBgVRPCN
Hi,Presently building a new open plan kitchen/lounge/diner and I'm struggling how to choose/place Sonos products for this large open plan space (9.4m x 7.2m overall) - see picture below. What I am looking to establish is:-What type of speakers? Should I consider ceiling speakers? How many? Where would they be positioned?Some random info:-Sound - I already have a cinema room so at this stage don’t believe true surround sound is required. Having said that, there isn’t a natural listening location beyond being sat on the sofa in this room, so ideas on how to manage this space will be ideal? The system will be used more for enjoying music/podcasts rather than as a party space. I like a bit of everything from D&B to Rock to Classical Music Own a single Era 100 at present The budget is about £1500 - £1800. I could maybe add to the initial system later on, maybe with a sub-woofer or something else I use an Apple phone, Spotify and AlexaAny advice is greatly appreciated!
I have begun researching the possibility of adding Sonos Port to my system to enable the use of some really good Klipsch speakers in my office. I would power the speakers with an existing Denon amplifier. My question - does the Sonos Port ever go on sale? I would kick myself if i bought it and it goes on sale a few days later.
Has anyone experienced Sonos voice control starting music while watching TV? This has happened several times, and I can’t quite figure out how or why this is happening.
Would love to not have to buy a JBL party box. I want to buy Sonos, but they need to make a true outdoor party box.
I have a Play5 in a 3x5m room and would like to add another speaker. Is the obvious choice another 5 or would that be overkill in a small room?Thanks
I love that I can use my Roku TV remote for the connected Arc soundbar to turn up/down volume or mute, but why are those the only 3 buttons mapped to use? I get that fwd/back buttons for next/prev playlist track skipping might not be as straightforward as it seems due to variations in TV remotes, but play button is pretty ubiquitous and it feels like a no brainer that it should be mapped to pause/resume playing music alongside existing volume controls.
Often when I use Spotify and try to use Sonos to send the music to multiple speakers, it doesn’t work. Why is this? I can send the Spotify music to the Sonos speakers using AirDrop or use a separate Bluetooth speaker with no problem but when I try to use Sonos to group rooms, I get nothing.
To start…The Beam Ultra is an impressive upgrade over the Beam 2.Setup of the Beam Ultra is straight forward and very easy using the app (iOS_iPhone 17 Pro Max). No one should have difficulties unless their network is mis-configured or has been experiencing intermittent issues prior to installation. I upgraded from a Beam 2. Important note but hopefully most have TVs manufactured after 2012.The Beam Ultra is not compatible with CCFL-backlit TVs (manufactured 2004-2012)Read it under Tech Specs for Power and Connectivity.However, if your TV is an LED-backlit LCD with HDMI ARC the Beam Ultra will work. I connected my Beam Ultra to a 2010 Sony KDL-46HX800 that is LED-backlit LCD with HDMI ARC (soon to be replaced) 😂.Beam Ultra vs Arc UltraRoom Size (Feet/Meter):Length 25/7.62 Width 16/4.87 Height 8/2.44Sonos AccessoriesEra 300 surrounds Sub 4 x 2TuningAdvanced TruePlayVolume setting46 via the appTV size65 inch LGIMO the Beam Ultra does an excellent job with Dolby Atmos content.

This is more of a feature request, but could Qobuz please be added to the list of searchable and controllable music services via the new MCP connection to AI models. This is a really great feature, but annoying that it doesn’t work with Qobuz.
I am posting this after checking all the other posts related to this issue. After my speakers updated from S1 to S2, I was able to add the Music Library, but a lot of folders and tracks are randomly missing. I repeated this step at least three times with the exact same results. All files should be compatible and my library is under the maximum allowed limit. Please note that the main reason I had downgraded all my speakers to S1 was that none of these issues were present in S1. And I do not have time to become a test person for the SONOS technicians again, as it was the case years ago. Problem is, downgrading the speakers and adding the S1 system again is also a very lengthy process… Any solutions anywhere, after all these years?? Thanks.
Anyone having issues with Soundcloud since yesterday (25th Sep). Tracks not playing first time, sonos cycling through playlist, then randomly playing a track from the playlist. Have now tried removing Soundcloud and adding it back - been getting a Something went wrong Check Your internet connection and try again’. Occasionally it gives me a code to verify with my soundcloud login but immediately goes back to the Something went wrong message. Sonos Status is showing Soundcloud is still active ie nothing wrong their side with the connection.
