Can I use a echo pop on my sonos play5 gen 1 ?

I have a set up with Sonos Arc, Bass, and 2 ERA 100s and they don’t sound really good with youtube tv live via Apple TV. I have tried everything I believe. Everything comes out of the Sonos ARC and hardly out of the ERA 100s.  They were expensive and I would like it to work properly….I used the music app through sonos and music came out great!!

Hi All,I have recently upgraded to an Arc from a Playbar.I have an LG TV that's 4 years old but has an Arc port, I also have my Sky Q box connected via HDMI to the TV.I believe I have followed all of the setup instructions, however, only half of it seems to work.When I tell Alexa to turn on the TV she does but not the Sky box, I have to do that manually. However, when I turn the TV OFF manually it turns both off.When I ask her to turn off the TV I get the start and end notifications but nothing happens.Room is:- TV Room and has Arc, 2 play 1’s and a sub, Arc & TV have Ethernet connections, Port from Q box is HDMI 1, Arc is in the HDMI (ARC) port.Thoughts and possible solutions gratefully accepted. Martyn

I’ve just purchased a new Sonos Roam 2, My Sonos app found it straight away and added it to my system.I’ve added the Alexa voice control and the Sonos skill to Alexa app also the BBC Sounds Skill.I’ve added the BBC sounds service to the Sonos app.When I ask Alexa to play BBC Radio 2 for example it selects BBC World Service West Africa.  I can select Radio 2 from the Sonos app with no problem.  

As of November 20, after a long power outage of 12 hours, I noticed the following:Google Assistant (GA) vanished - first noted with inability to turn on microphone, verified on Sonos App, on the Sonos Beam Gen 1. Any attempt to re-add GA via either android or ios fails with different symptoms depending on the OS.    Android will not be able to locate any google assistant capable device in the ‘google assistant’ phase post linkage (SSO/OUTH) between google ↔ sonos;  IOS will get there error message ‘There may be a problem’.   Verified no former linkage exists in Google Home. I added / removed the SONOS voice control successfully so the Beam is not mechanically challenged.I’ve reviewed threads, cleared the beam to factory defaults and rebuilt, rebooted the router / sonos devices, all to no effect.   All Sonos devices and controller are up to date.   Still, no ability to add Google Assistant to the beam.I’ve seen an email thread from three months ago that the GA feature / addition is curr

I have some nice Front L/R speakers along with some in-ceiling rear speakers.I went and purchased a Sonos Arc along with the two Sonos Amps and was surprised to find out that the Arc could not be setup as a Center Channel only.  Seems to me that Sonos missed an opportunity to sell me some more gear.  I returned the ARC and will setup the fronts to produce a “faux” center speaker.

Does anyone know if using an HDMI cable labeled "High Speed" or "Ultra High Speed" is a better option to use with the Sonos Arc Ultra rather than the one included?

I have a playbar with optical out only port only. How do I connect this to an old projector that only has HDMI ports?The HDMI switchers I see don’t seem to have optical ports?  

One of my Ones suddenly has no white light and has lost connection to my wifi.I cant get it to do anything.Any options for me.

I recently upgraded my wifi system form an RBR50 based Orbi router plus 3 sateelites ot a Google Nest Pro mesh system and it has been a disaster. The system drops out at random and it is clear form other posts that there are some fundamental issues with the nest pro mesh system. I am not a techie and do not have any more hours to spend on support chats/calls (I just want a system that I can connect up after restting my mixed Sonos system and it works and can be controlled from my PC, iphone and iPad, seemingly not possible on google.I know that soem folks have found workarounds but I just want a simple life. Any help much appreciated.

AirPlay works fine on both devices.If I try to play music on the Sonos App with Apple Music, the Era100 works perfectly (I also get the Lossless resolution symbol). But if I try to play with the Arc, I get a message saying that “it was not possible to play the selected song, retry” and skips to the next song (and get the same message again). How can I solve this? I really wanted to make use of the Dolby Atmos feature. 

How can I connect my google doorbell 2nd gen wired to a google speaker so it works as an indoor chime?

I have Sonos Arc, Sonos Amp connected to two rear ceiling speakers and a Sonus Sub.   I have a one year old Samsung QE55S95C.   When I had my previous TV I had an Apple 4K box.  When this transmitted Atmos, I could see this on the app.    Now I have a new TV with eARC and Apple built in, I do not see the audio format on the app.   I am unsure if this is related to the new TV or the changes within the app. I have connected eArc from the TV to the Arc.When watching TV the app does not show the format of the sound as it used to do.  So when watching something that I know is in Atmos, the app simply says source HDMI.   If I go into settings to see each component on my Android phone, there is no line for “Audio In”When I go to settings on my iPad I get each component serial number, Sonos OS, Version, Hardware version, IP address and a line for Audio in.    However for no component is anything listed in “Audio in”I have spoken to tech support and they have confirmed that they can see that I

I have 4 Sonos Ports in my set up, all Ethernet wired to my network. I use my phone to play music to them, usually uttering “Siri play some music in the Backyard” (Backyard is the name of a port, in the room “Backyard” of my Apple Home set up). I also have tried picking a port in the output selector. In both of these scenarios, I see about 25% of the time, that Siri will say “OK” or the route is changed successfully in the picker, but then nothing is rendered on the speakers, even though the Apple Music playhead is moving as if nothing is wrong. I have checked my amp, my network, etc. and everything is fine.Interestingly, to recover, all I need is to turn off that route in the picker, and then selected it again, and immediately music is rendered. This leads me to believe it is an iOS issue, but I cant confirm. Has anyone else experienced this? It has been going on ever since I’ve had the ports, ~2 years or so.Since it isn’t 100% repeatable, it is slow to debug. I think it has something

Hi.I have a beam gen 1+2 one gen 1=sub gen 2.It will be a diference if ai put the one s as rear speakers and add 2 sonos one in front,or is it better to buy 2 sonos play 3 to put them as front speakers.thanks 

At the moment i have a beam and sub, both gen 1, for watching TV.For listening to music i would like to add some extra speakers, for example 2 era100/300>Is it possible to setup the extra speakers so they work with playing music and watching tv, and not only when playing music?For music i would like the extra Era 100/300 with the sub.For TV i would like the above and the beam.Is that possible? 

All of a sudden, Alexa has stopped working in India. I thought may be it’s an issue with my system. I did a full reset of my Sonos Arc and Sonos Roam and added Alexa voice assistant. While the basic functionality of Alexa is working (asking time, weather etc), it just won’t play any music. Here is a response I am getting when I ask Sonos Roam - Alexa, play some music.response: sorry to do that first enable the skill for your Sonos roam in the Alexa app, then ask me to discover devices. (Similar case with Sonos Arc)in Alexa app, there is no SONOS skill listed to enable. (See the screenshot included below) I have been using Sonos for the past three years. Didn’t have to go through this process of enabling skill while setting up Alexa back when I installed Sonos for the first time.  if worked like a charm right after enabling it from the Sonos app (I didn’t even have to install Alexa on my phone, let alone enabling the skill).  I don’t know if this is just for me or something is seriously

Okay I'm just letting everybody know I just got off the official Sonos website and Sonos will not hook up to Roku even through the string bars HDMI arc so they're telling me I almost paid $700 for a Sonos subwoofer I'm glad I didn't

Hello,I had the same issue with my Sonos Arc. I thought it would be resolved with a new and pristine Sonos Arc Ultra. When gaming or watching uncompressed Dolby Atmos content, the sound cuts out for a split second every 20 minutes, almost on the minute. I have tried different HDMI 2.1 cables. Ultra High Speed cables. The sound is beautiful and flawless for 20 minutes at a time. So that’s about 3 moments of irritation every hour when gaming or watching movies.  Since the same issue has been here for 4 years, I’m starting to think it’s a Samsung issue. Is Sonos in contact with Samsung to resolve the issue together? I have tried about everything there is to try for the past 4 years. But I am open to suggestions.

Hi all , is there a way of checking if all my speakers are connected via Sonos Net in the app ?? My beam gen 2 is connected via ethernet, can't seem to see in the app if it says connected via Sonos Net, thanks 

New to the product line and trying to get a basic understanding. Here’s what I’d like: a system with a small central amp, left and right passive speakers for stereo music and a center channel for TV (in combination with the L/R). I don’t need a sub. The Amp product has two wired outputs (L/R) so my first question is how would I include the center channel speaker using the Amp?

Can I use the app on my Android device, and Airplay on an iPhone at the same time? I have multiple speakers in my system, I would like to play content on one speaker using the app, my wife would like to play different content on another speaker using Airplay… at the same time. So far we can’t figure out how to make this work.

Hiei have an old Samsung tv that does not have Bluetooth, so I just bought Move 2 speaker and a Bluetooth transmitter that runs through the audio system of the tv .Now my problem is how do I connect the speaker to the tv as I have not seen the option to search for Bluetooth devices on the Sonos app. Can someone help me on this please.

Hello,I have bought the new SONOS Arc Ultra with 2 Era 300 and a Sub Mini.Here is my question. Since my TV only supports HDMI Arc, what are the best audio settings to choose on the PS5?As I understood, I should select under “Audio Output” and “HDMI Device Type” “AV Amplifier” and under “Number of channels” “7.1 channels”.What should I choose under "Audio Format "Priority"? Normally I would select Dolby Atmos, but my TV does not support HDMI eArc, so the big question is which format to select:    Linear PCM     Dolby Atmos     Dolby Audio     or DTS?Your help would be much appreciated.Best regards,Marc
