Spaces & Setups

Hi all, I currently have Apple Music, a ZP80 (that is hooked up to a record player and a cd player) and two Play Ones and I wanted to know what I would have to upgrade to have the following things work:- Being able to control Sonos from Apple Music (I can only control Sonos from my S1 app and that thing is awful.) Could I control Sonos from Apple Music if I had other equipment? If not, is the S2 controller a lot better than S1?- Streaming lossless music from Apple Music to Sonos Speakers.- Streaming high-res music from Apple Music to Sonos Speakers. It sounds like this would require some sort of extra DAC hardware and I am guessing new Sonos speakers that could handle hi-res audio (I am assuming the newer speakers do). It sounds like Apple Music requires you to have an external DAC to stream hi-res now. Is that the case with all of the other services out there?Thanks so much for your help. You guys are great at getting me the answers I need.-Clint 

I am considering buying a Bluetooth turntable in order to revisit some dusty old vinyl. I am particularly interested in the Project T1 BT.I do not want to connect any additional cabling into the turntable.I only currently have Wi-Fi SONOS speakers in my system and was hoping that I could buy either a MOVE or ROAM bluetooth speaker to connect to the turntable and additionally use as a ‘bridge’ to enable playing of the vinyl on my other wi-fi only SONOS speakers. Can anyone confirm if this is possible to mix output via both bluetooth and non bluetooth SONOS speakers?Thanks  

I can use a rooftop amplifier plus an ARC and a sub. The whole system is brand (sonos) and I want to connect it to the TV to watch movies and listen to music. Could I?

Hi I would like to buy some new speakers but have a set of decks and a huge Rotel stereo thats old but barley used so want to retain the separates. What Sonos speakers will work with my set up and be able to withstand the 200wpc please?

I clicked upgrade on one of my Sonos 1 by a mistake. I dont want to Trade it. Is it possible to undo this by not using The discount ticket?Can I still use The speaker or Will it disconnect or something? 

I have a Play 3 that I really like.  Is there something similar that can remain outdoors?  I would like music around my pool and have electrical outlets available.  My preference would be to use wifi or bluetooth with speakers that I plug into power.Does this exist?Thanks

Hi there,I just upgraded to a brand new Samsung TV, and joined the Sonos world for the first time with an Arc sound bar, plus a sub. We’re really impressed with the sound, having upgraded from a 10yr old Sony. We also bought a couple of Move speakers to stream music to, one to use upstairs and one for downstairs. The downside is that our now much more finely attuned ears (!) notice how crummy our bedroom TV sounds. I’ve checked, and did a bit of searching on the web, and the bedroom TV won’t seem to connect to the upstairs Move speaker, and am thinking a Beam sound bar might be a better investment anyway. The TV is a few years old and just wanted to sense check with the community that the TV should connect and play sound through a Beam rather than the TV speakers OK. There doesn’t seem to be a sound bar option in the TV settings menu. I found the requirements for a Beam at: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/1920?language=en_US and have checked, and my TV does have an HDMI ARC socket,

I currently have a pair of Fives set up as stereo for music only listening. I’m using a turntable and CD deck as sources. Works great. I was wondering if I could add another pair of either Ones or Fives to the existing Fives for multi channel audio like SACDs?

Hos can I se which WiFi Move is use when I had 3 WiFi configured in Sonos app?

I’ve a very simple setup, yet can’t find a straight answer online. How do I connect my Sonos beam to my Denon A/V receiver (as center/front channels) along with Bose inceiling speakers as rear channels? I’m planning to buy a Sonos port/connect

Hello, I have a strange situation : on my iPad, if I play youtube or youtube music, if I use airplay, I can see my Sonos and stream to it. on my iPad, or Android phone, if I clic on “cast” icon, I see no device connected.That is not cool, as if I use airplay and close youtube app, the sound stop. And Also I can not use my android phone.With Sonos APP it works well, but in sonos app I can not add music to my library and playlist. How can I manage this to work ?Thanks in advance for your help.

My sound switches to night mode randomly throughout each day.  Is there a way to keep night mode off?

Hi everyone,if I have a Beam plus 2 x IKEA Symfonisk as a surround system, which of the speakers will be the default for music playback when using Beam as a smart speaker?Would it just come from Beam, or could I set the surrounds to ‘full’ and have music playback from all three? TIA

I am planning to get a Roam and leave it constantly plugged in to use it primarily as a wifi speaker, with the option of taking it out and about when needed. My question is, will leaving it constantly plugged in degrade the battery life? The FAQ for the Move explicitly states that leaving it on the charging base will not degrade battery life. However, the equivalent FAQ for the Roam is notably missing this reference. Thanks for your help!

Hi all , had a weird repetitive chime sound coming out of my beam . Happened for 2 days . Forums intimidated an alarm but checked the app and dates no alarm set. When playing music the chime seemed to dominate and could just about here music played through it . Turned off and left off for ages - nothing - them all of a sudden all ok today . Any ideas what is was as I fear it may return ? Thanks 

Hey there, Just moved into a new place and am trying to add my living room setup of a playbase plus paired one surrounds to HomeKit.  However the Home app is not recognizing any of the speakers.  I tried factory resetting all three and was eventually able to see two speakers (not sure which ones) in the Home app, but still wasn’t able to add them (failed) and now they will not appear again.  Also have power cycled my phone, Apple TV hub and router. I’ve successfully added a set of stereo ones and a standalone one to HomeKit so no issue with the rest of the setup.  Would appreciate any help.

Okay, so I hade a quite confusing question. I’m interested in getting a surroundsound system. I was thinking about getting a playbar. I have a pair of active speakers i would like to use as surround, is that possible with a connect? And if so, is it also possible to connect a sub to these speakers? Cause they have a sub output and I cant afford the Sonos Sub. Would appreciate some help!//Filip

Despite several old threads dealing with the lack of bookmarks, there's no coherent explanation why this is not possible or implemented. Who would be responsible for this feature - Sonos, Audible or both?And, does Audiobooks offer a bookmark feature?There's an ancient Linux program on github which claims to be able to provide sonos bookmarking, but I doubt it actually works by reading the issues reported. 

Hi GuysFirst Post.Tearing the remains of my hair out.I have an LG G1 Evo connected to my Sonos Arc.  All sound outputs are good (ish).  I have connected a Panasonic DP-UB820 Ultra Blu-Ray player to the TV via HDMI.  All cables are connected properly and up to spec.  No matter what I try, I can only see Stereo PCM on the Sonos App when using the player.Any suggestions welcome.Thanks for reading.

I have a stereo pair of Fives that has a line in from a Denon turntable. The Denon has a built in pre amp and this all works fine. However it seems the overall volume isn’t as loud as I feel it should me. It’s perfectly listenable but less than the CD player also attached. my question is if I were to bypass the turntables built in preamp and instead add an external preamp might my overall volume increase?

hello Everyone, Need some advice/guidance. Looking to create a whole home music system. Looking to get one Sonos 5 (for my family room area) and a Sonos 5 (for my Living room area) - both in the lower level of the house. And a few Sonos Ones for the upper level rooms of my house.  Also looking to add some rich bass to the set up and therefore looking to get a Sonos sub. Will one sub do the trick and have enough bass for the entire lower level if I kept it in one room in the lower level. Or does each room require a different sub. Also, any suggestions on placement of the sub. The lower levels rooms are all connected through large open doorways. Thanks you all in advance. Sandeep

Hi I've  a projector but u can't able to install the app...it's an android ...how can I try to install the app using ikea device...thx

I seem to be having a similar issue with one of my Playbases not being able to access the wireless network.  My support diagnostics2039956771.

I have set up grouped speakers in settings.how do I access the short cut? 

Hey,I was just wondering if there’s any future release planned containing profiles for audio settings to be shown on the main player screen on the app for easy switching?? EQ/sub/trueplay settings??I like to turn the sub off at night, flatten out the EQ and engage trueplay to make it more subtle for nighttime listening, but it’s a ball ache going into the settings and changing them all manually, wondering if there is scope for these to be saved in audio profiles to be easily selectable from the player UI. RegardsSteve.
