Spaces & Setups

I have the beam (just got it) so far really good. I’m wanting to get a couple rear speakers and was curious which of these two to get. Only difference is the voice control. I may also use these to take out side etc for the near future. Only 50 bucks difference surrently    tha k you 

I want to connect a pair of JBL control 60PS/T subwoofers to my Sonos system. they are not powered. Is it possible to connect the sub out on the Sonos amp to line in on another amp (not Sonos) to power the subs? I’m not too familiar with audio installations. Hope the question makes sense.  

Hi, I've recently purchased a Sonos Beam and two Sonos One SL speakers in order to create a sound sound/home cinema set up.  I've successfully set up the two One SL's as surround sound speakers but its not quite what I was expecting - when watching TV it only plays certain sounds through the One SLs, such as background music etc.  I would like a true surround sound experience and by that I mean I would like to hear more/all audio coming from the satellite speakers opposed to just background noise.  Could someone please confirm what my options are? Any help would be much appreciated! FYI I've already put the music playback to full and increased the TV level in the app.  

My Ipad streams audio to my Sonos Beam. How can I stop that from happening?

Thinking of updating to an arc and want to use my current playbar as part of my music system.Is this possibleRegards

HiI have two Fives and a Gen 3 Sub connected together in one room and all are working well.  I have just connected up a new Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB turntable to my RH Five and I can get audio through that speaker but cannot get the sound to come out of the LH Five, nor the Sub.  I have looked online with no success for an easy fix, can someone please help to get this audio to play on the “room” (three speakers) and not just this one?  I have the S2 App running on a fairly new iPhone.  Thank you in advance!Sharon 

there is not enough space for song titles in portrait, which is not always needed but it’d be nice to come up to date or at least 2017 with an update to the app that allows the app to rotate 

Hello Everyone I just upgraded my playbar to the ARC and my TV to the sony x950 and was soo excited to test everything out, but was severely disappointed with the terrible dialogue with the ARC.   I feel that I have to constantly increase the volume to hear dialogue but then turn it down when something explodes.  I’ve read that this may be an issue but wasn’t sure if anyone has had luck with fixing this.  I watch everything on an apple 4k TV.  I also have the play 1 for surround and the gen 3 sub.any thoughts and suggestions will be welcomed.thanks

Hi,I bought the arc a few weeks ago, changed my tv. I now have a Sony x95h… and the sound keeps cutting in and out on differents app. Netflix is the only app i dont have the issue with. What is going on?I already chat with a guy from Sonos last week, reboot my tv and arc, with the cycle thing...I ran a diagnostic tonight, here is the number: 1109734569

I just got a Sonos arc.  I set up as follows: cable from arc to arc port, sound out through hdmi Arc, digital sound out through Auto, eArc enabled.  No sound comes out.  What am I doing wrong?

Will the Move work with my Sonos system if I am on the Sonos 1 app      Since I purchased my speakers in 2017 I cannot use the Sonos 2 app

Hi there,  First time posting - I’m looking to upgrade my Play:1 and ZP90… when I log on I can see that the Play:1 is eligible for a 15% credit, but the ZP90 doesn’t seem eligible… It’s weird as the only info it says in the upgrade section is ‘S1 ONLY’ - exactly the reason I want to upgrade…! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Mike

I purchased a Port to work with my existing amp and speakers. Since then the amp has stopped working and I have decided to go all in with Sonos. All I have from Sonos is the Port. I want to play music in my living room, connect my turntable (which is in an adjacent room) and connect via audio cable to my existing outdoor speakers. My thought was that I need an Amp and could hook my Port into my turntable allowing it to connect to the network. Then get a speaker for the main room and hook that and the current outdoor speakers to the Amp. Does that sound correct? Are there better options?

I am in the process of upgrading my family room home theater system with a new television/Xbox Series X/Sonos ARC.  We do a significant amount of online gaming and I am concerned about multiple blogs complaining about in-game audio lag with this setup.  This appears to be an issue across multiple setups including non-SONOS sound bars.  Before I spend a ton of cash I am wondering if there is an inherent problem with the console>TV>eARC>soundbar format with gaming specifically.  I envision that there is limited ability to adjust AV sync with online gaming since it is quite important not to have a delay in either in this environment.  For reference my current set up is XBOX One X with audio directly out to Playbar via optical and HDMI to my television with no delay issues but obviously only outputting 5.1.

I currently have the Arc with 2 Sonos ones as my surrounds and with the gen 2 sub in my living room.I was wondering if I could add the Sonance in-wall or in-ceiling speakers or both powered by the amp to have them work with my living room setup? Or if I could group them to the same room?

Play 5 gen version 1 or 2 ?

Beam has worked fien until 2 weeks ago and now every time I turn on TV it reverts to TV speakers and will not recent to TV unless I unplug beam and set u again.  IT is connected with HDMI cable through Arc and that is fine.  Please help as this is frustrating.  The only thing that has changed is that there was a recent Sonos update

I have two rooms:Living Room: sonos one gen 1 Kitchen:  sonos one gen 2We always play music using Airplay on our iPhones.I’d like to have three ways to connect to bluetooth to connect via AirPlay:Living Room Kitchen All Rooms: both Living Room and KitchenAs it is right now options one and two exist, I just need assistance in setting up the All Rooms option. I tried to create a group however it says you can only do that for three or more rooms.Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to remove Sonos Radio from the menus in the mobile and/or desktop apps?   It’s rather in the way, and since we already have Spotify, Amazon, Tunein, I really don’t need to add another service. Since it’s confusing for people to see it, and then be presented with a login box (why!?), I’d rather just hide the icon. Is there a way? If not, why not?

I’ve seen a few similar questions on here but no clear answers. How moisture resistant is the Sonos move? Can it be used in the bathroom while taking a hot shower without sustaining any damage? The fan in our bathroom is broken so there’s a lot of steam/condensation

Hi,I bought a Sonos Beam soundbar for my TV and am happy with it.  But I also want to add the soundbar to my Google Home Speaker Group.  I have seen threads on this support group saying this is not possible and I certainly have not been able to do it.  I just wonder that since the threads are the best part of a year old, has there been any progress in fixing this problem?  Without this being resolved I will not be purchasing any Sonos add-ons.  My Bang and Olufsen speakers are part of my Google Home Speaker Group.Thanks. G St

Hello, I've recently purchased a Sonos Beam, Sony X900H and an Xbox Series X.The X900H has the eArc update. I am connected via hdmi in the eArc port. eArc is set to auto in settings.Sound on the TV apps work well. However, on the series x, there is a significant audio delay. I have changed to optical (re-syncing my remote etc.) and the delay was worse. Now I'm back to hdmi eArc, and wondering what my options are. I have tried:-changing a/v sync options - auto, on, off-eArc mode offI have tried swapping to PCM which seems to help. I'm not exactly sure what that is so any insight would be appreciated. The only thing I can tell is the sound seems a bit more hollow on PCM mode.Thanks for your help. 

Hi folks. To set the context:- moved into new home. Existing sub reset to factory.- new home installed 3 amps each running 2 stereo for different zones (2 are sonance 1 jensen) with an arc.- running amps hardwired and sonos arc is wireless. 1. My soundbar is not able to set 1 amp and 1 bass for a dedicated home theatre setup. I've tried numerous variations from resetting each device and reconnecting to no avail. Has anyone experience an issue whereby the soundbar needs to be hardwired and so does amp and sub? Or should I be able to have a home theatre setup on 1 zone with the arc wired, surrounds via amp wired, and wireless sub? Or is it possible to have wireless sonos arc, wired rear amp surrounds, and wireless sub.Thanks Sunny 

Hi, I’m trying to get over 2 issues of the lack of AP2 on my existing system.I have the following setup:room 1 - 1 x Play:1room 2 - 1 x Play:1room 3 - 2 x Play:1 (stereo)room 4 - 1 x Connect1) i’m thinking of buying one more (I really didn’t want to have to do this!) Speaker - Sonos 1SL, adding this to the system and grouping this to all the non AP products.Will this allow me to play music from IOS devices? I believe so….but if one device is playing via AP in room 1, will this allow another person to stream via a NAS for instance in room 2?2) will adding this AP device to my system allow you to stream BBC sounds from an IOS device? - due to The BBC falling out with Tunein! thanks for any advice in advance

Hi, can anyone tell why it isnt possible to run dual subs with a stereo pair of Fives when it is possible with the much inferior Beam?
