Spaces & Setups

Can anyone help direct me to the right Sonos radio stations that play instrumental and sentimental music? Appreciate it. Thanks

I have a VPN set up in my home so I can remote in and. . . well, it's not really important what I'm using it for. Has anyone had any success connecting to their home VPN with a Sonos speaker? I would love to be able to buy one for my office and have it connect to my music library at home. Searching old posts did not see any queries about the matter before. Thanks.

Hi everyone.I have just bought a beam gen2 connected to OLED LG EF950 (2016) NOT ATMOS TV.Beam is connected through ARC port to the oled and on the other hdmi is connected a firestick 4k max that would be able to handle and manage the Atmos signal.Problem is that despite beam gen2 and stick 4k max are Atmos compatible i cant be able to get Atmos.Surely problem is the oled.Any advice?Thank you 

BonjourIl n’y a pas de pass-through sur l’Apple TV. Le mode audio « auto » de l’Appletv envoie un flux audio  LPCM multicanal.Quand la source lue est en Dolby Atmos, retrouve t on les infos Atmos dans le LPCM multicanal en sortie audio ou non ?Pour résumer, est ce que si j’achète une Sonos ARC recevant du LPCM Multicanal de l’Apple TV lors de la lecture d’une source atmos, j’aurais bien les effets atmos restitués par la barre ?

Dear community, I have Sonos Playbar, Sonos subwoofer and 2 x Sonos one, the sound is brilliant but Playbar is hidden on the top of TV, subwoofer behind TV,  Sonos one speakers on stand at the back, I have no chance to hide them and I don't like it so I decided to sell it and made completely different setup but I am not sure of I am doing it right, my plan is to buy speakers which I can push into the wall and ceiling, it's quite expensive decision so I have to make sure it will be well spent money, first what exactly I do need to buy to make it work well should I keep Playbar and subwoofer ? Second I would like to get cinematic effect is it possible with in wall speakers ? Please advise, thank you, it will be set in room 5m X 3.5m ,TV is on one of the 3.5m wall if that helps and sofa opposite.

I'm thinking about buying a pair of Fives for a stereo pair. I would like to be able to move them occasionally to different rooms and was wondering if they mechanically couple to the stands or do they merely rest on top of them. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi again.I have an open plan living space that’s divided into two spaces separated by an open door arch. My aim is to have sound in both spaces, probably all linked.The entire space is 38’ (feet) by 10.5’. The 38’ length, as described above, is divided into two rooms, one at 23’ long and another at 15’ long. The bigger room (23’ x 10.5’) has two shelves at the far end (the furthest point away from the joining door arch) and the smaller room has bookshelves at each end of a side wall (the 15’ one) a side wall. The shelves in both rooms are the obvious place for speakers. Hope this makes sense!!I’d like to have a speaker or speakers in both rooms on the shelves described. I’m thinking of two x Ones in each space, giving stereo sound but am wondering if the two x Ones will fill the larger space (23’ x 10.5’). I guess the alternative is to have one or two 5s in the bigger space. What do people think would work best? I don’t think I can stretch to two 5s but could at a push. I don’t have na

We want to play cds on our system.  What players have Bluetooth that will work?

Hello! I can make an upgrade of an old play 1 and get 15% discount. Can I use this discount on the Carbon turntable which price is currently already discounted? tks

Can Sonos arc play Dolby atmos through wifi network. By using Apple TV 4K

How does this program work.  I have a Beam 1st generation. I'd like a 2nd gen so Sonos is offering a 15% discount. If I take advantage of the upgrade discount do I have to send Sonos my old Beam or can I keep it?

When I open my Sonos 2 app for my multiple speaker set up in the main floor of my home, it sometimes detects my Sonos 1 set up in the basement and goes to an Options screen. Going to the choices, one can open the Sonos 1 controller,delete, set up, and so on, but then one cannot use the Sonos 2 app or speakers with this dialog open.So far, to resolve it, I have rebooted the device I have the app installed, and this sometimes “fixes” it.Also, in the the Sonos 1 controller, I play something on the speakers there, then go back to the Sonos 2 app on the device, it will now open separately and have been able to play the set up speakers on Sonos 2. I then stop the Sonos1 player. So, the question is, why is Sonos 2 detecting and attempting to set up my Sonos 1 capable speakers which are already on a Sonos 1 system?Is there any part of the Sonos 2 app that will allow me to shut this feature off? Also, both systems are on the same WIFI network. 

J'ai téléchargé l'appli sonos sur mon téléphone pour contrôler Deezet,mais impossible d'accèder à "Services et Voix"Tout est grisé

I’ve tried multiple times to connect my Sonos system to Apple Home on both my ipad and iphone and it always fails. Home is able to detect my Sonos system (Arc, Sub and surrounds) but when I select it, the Home app continually gives the error "Unable to  add accessory. Home couldn't connect to this accessory" I've tried resetting all my Sonos products and after that's complete, the error persists. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm able to Airplay to my Sonos system from an Apple device but I can't add to home to enable Siri. Google Assistant is hopeless in NZ and I've found Alexa is error prone. Siri just works so I'd like to connect to Apple Home. 

Problem - My Sonos app says I’m getting Stereo PMC audio only. It also sounds like that.  Set up - LG CX (eArc) - Sonos Arc (part of a full 5.1 setup) - PS5 playing 4K UHD disc (Bladerunner 2049) Expectation - Thought I should be getting Dolby 7.1 audio output. Any ideas why the app say PMC?  

Hi Peeps,I have a port with powered b&o speakers. I want to add a turntable and assume I won’t need a pre-amp or amp as the speakers are powered.Is this correct? Or am I a silly newbie who doesn’t know what I’m talking about? 

Two weeks ago Amazon Music was launched in Colombia and Chile. However I cannot add that service yet in Colombia.Press release: https://press.aboutamazon.com/news-releases/news-release-details/amazon-announces-launch-amazon-music-colombia-and-chile-giving/ When will Amazon Music be available in the Sonos App in Colombia?

My TV room sound system currently has a Sonos arc and two Sonos 1 and sound is amazing when watching TV. I want to keep now a much cleaner/simple room and want to replace the two Sonos 1 speakers which sit on the back with Ceiling or Wall speakers. What would be the best recommendation to keep good quality sound surround system for the TV? 

I have a Sonos Arc connected via HDMI to an LG OLED C1, with eARC and HDMI-CED enabled. Most things work fine, including the LG magic remote (I didn’t have to do any Universal Remote configuration, it just works) and I only had to change a couple of settings on the TV to get full surround sound working. That said, with the Arc connected I can’t see the volume level - the vertical bar that normally appears when you’re changing the TV volume level. If I disconnect the Arc, I get the vertical bar back, but with the Arc connected then all I see is a + button, a - button and a sound icon when I change the volume level. It works, but that useful piece of information is missing. I can see it on the Sonos app, if I look there, but not on the TV screen. This suggests some kind of communication failure between the Arc and the LG TV, with the actual volume level not being shared. Anybody else seen this or have an idea what might be the problem?

I suspect this may have been discussed, but I will bring it up again as its something CI Dealers discuss on the regular, and a category which has been criminally neglected.Sonos really needs a 1U height, 17” wide 4 zone port with rack ears. It can easily retail for $1800, and Installers would use them every day of the week rather than stacking Ports with multiple ethernet cables, wall warts, etc.Stacking multiple Ports in a rack is a mess, even when you have a rack face. They look great in a Living room, or on a traditional hifi rack, but its ultimately a consumer level product, and an Installer friendly option is severely lacking.NAD has a great one for BluOS, and it just looks like a blank rack face. Same with Heos.Best part is, no retail cost savings are required. This would sell for $1800 all day long.

I have a sonos full surround system which is the arc the base and 2 one SL speakers, is it so possible to add in ceiling speakers to this system or that is all I can add to the surround system?

When I search for an artist, Amazon music easily shows “Top Songs”. Whereas Apple Music just has every single album the artist has ever made and I have no option to listen to the top songs. This is a huge nuisance, who is going to flip through nine different albums to find one or two songs per album.  Half the time I don’t even know what album the song is from.This lack of feature prevents me from successfully using the Sonos app to listen to Apple Music (most of the time)

Hello,Yesterday I ordered everything that I mentioned in the title. So far I owned the Symfonisk only and experienced audio-video delays while using it with my windows PC via TuneBlade app (basically AirPlay simulator). Easily fixed when using VLC, but a nightmare when using Netflix. Now I’m going through the forum and see multiple threads from the past regarding lip sync issues on LG TV’s. Were those ever resolved? Also, I’m planning on using the TV for Netflix and other on-board apps for watching movies and stuff, but on the other hand I want to plug in my PC, also for movie watching stuff that’s not available on the current streaming platforms. Am I going to face audio delay issues again?
