Spaces & Setups

Right, I have just got a new sonos move to add to my current which I set up and was running fine. One of my guests pressed some buttons on the back to use it on Bluetooth and then inadvertently removed it from my network.  I have now reset this several times and can’t get it to join my current network with various other sonos products including a sonos connect (S1 software). When it goes through it doesn’t recognise the password which is 100% correct.  I have now added it to my wifi extender which splits the channels and has a different name but for the life of me can’t add it back to my normal network.  any suggestions. It’s driving me crazy

I’m buying the Sonance Patio 4.1, which has 4 outdoor satellite speakers and 1 subwoofer, the package comes optional with the SR2-125 amp . If I get this kit I would still need to purchase the Sonos Port to connect it to the rest of my home system….or could I simply replace the sr2-125 with the Sonos Amp?that would save me about 500$,  however the guy at the audio store said that although it’s compatible he would definitely not recommend replacing the sr2-125 with a Sonos Amp.any thoughts?

will a beam + gen 1 connect amp and a sub still work together as a 5.1 after the changes in may?  i can’t tell based off the article if it’s just grouping the speakers that won’t work or if using a connect amp as surrounds with a beam or playbar won’t work as well.

Hi all,I am looking to connect my Ti Phono SB Turntable to my Sonos Play1 speakers. I understand that there is no wifi connection so I have to go through a Sono Play 5 or an external amp.If I connect the turntable to my old Marantz amp and the amp to Sonos Port, will I be able to use my Sonos Play 1 speakers? Thanks,M

I have read many posts but not found a definitive answer! We currently have a simple, no amp turntable and a sonos sound bar/beam. Investing in one of (no idea which) Sonos amp to connect this vinyl player seems very expensive. Can anyone confirm that if we buy the Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB Turntable That we would NOT need to buy any other device to connect the turntable to the sound bar?    

Since Google Play Music is going away, I want to suggest that Google Podcasts be made available to Sonos so I can continue to listen to my podcasts easily. Google say that the new YouTube Music replacement for Google Play will not have podcast capability.Thanks

I recently purchased a 55 inch Sony A9G Master OLED TV and am trying to set up a surround sound system with my Sonos Beam and two Sonos One speakers. I was able to create a surround sound pairing in the Sonos app with the three speakers, and have the Beam plugged into the TV’s HDMI ARC port, but do not hear any sound from the rear two Sonos One speakers. The TV is set to Dolby Digital mode (not Dolby Digital Plus) and have eArc mode on the Sony TV on auto mode. When I go into the “Home Theater Control” area in TV settings, the TV does not recognize any audio system. My questions are:Is it possible to use my current setup as surround sound with this TV and, if so, what am I doing wrong? Is it possible to use the TV speakers in tandem with the Sonos speakers (ideally with TV speakers facing me, Beam directly behind me, and one Sonos One speaker on either side left and right behind me)? Not sure if this would be possible as the speakers would not be plugged into the TV directly (ideally w

I have a Sony x900F and use an Apple TV 4K for all tv watching.  I’ve read mixed reports about the Sonos ability to work with the X900F & ATV 4K combo, since the TV only has HDMI ARC, not eARC.  Has Anyone with this combo had success?

Can someone at Sonos please explain the rationale of the 4" distance between the Arc and the TV when wall mounting? I assume that it's to give clearance for the top-firing tweeters, but my TV is only 2 cm off of the wall- the Arc sticks out far in front of it. Wouldn't this mean that I could (in theory) do fine by mounting it closer to the TV? And if so, how close can I really get before performance is affected? 

Hi guys, Since music is most important to me i wonder what setup to buy. I currently own a pair of Ones which are positioned on stands quite good to fire into the living room. I wonder if i should buy a sub to make a 2.1 setup or sell the Ones and go for stereo Fives setup (or even with a sub but.. MONEY..). Since the tweeters and woofers on the Five are “positioned” for horizontal use im doubtful of the vertical use.. the side fire tweeters stop or hit the floor and ceiling and the woofers aim towards floor and ceiling a bit.. feels kinda not right.. Like its not REALLY designed for stereo/vertical use. Is there anyone who has both a stereo pair of fives / play 5 and stereo pair Ones with sub to compare? Also an Arc with the ones as surround is an option, so i have tv and music audio but i read alot of mixed feelings about the Arc, especially lacking bass. I do kinda like bass in music. Would anyone consider using an Arc for music ? Or how about a full surround setup for music a

I have a very nice Paradigm Sub that is not hooked up to anything.  I am considering adding a Sonos Sub to my Sonos system or I am considering buying a Sonos Amp and using my Paradigm 12” Subwoofer to enhance my system.  I am currently only using my Sonos system for music.  I currently have a Sonos Five and a pair of Sonos One’s in the living room, a second pair of Sonos Ones in the Bedroom and a Sonos Move.  My TV’s are a little older and don’t have the HDMI ARC ports.  My TV’s are currently using a Sound bar and wireless Sub for the TV Sound.  I think the Amp and my Paradigm Subwoofer provide me with more options to connect for a Home Theatre sound when I get new TV’s, but I like all of the Sonos products.  So looking for suggestions as to which setup might provide the best sound for Music.  Thanks

I have Sonos Arc synced with a sub and two SLs. Some movies such as John Wick seem way too loud with low dialogue. This could be the movie just wanted to know if there was any tricks to solving this issue. I have an Apple TV and also fire cube. The Speech Enhancement is on and true play has been done as well.

Hi community,I am streaming content through my Apple TV 4k (5th gen) to a projector and my Sonos Beam. The projector doesn’t have an ARC port, so I use an HDMI audio extractor to split the audio off the HDMI using the Toslink optical connection (supplied). My viewing experience has improved significantly!However, I am yet to be able to control the volume of the Beam with the Siri remote and need some assistance! I have followed the instructions in the Sonos post without luck. The Siri remote does not have a mute button, so the TV remote learning process fails with the current iteration of the Sonos S1 app (I have a gen 1 Play 5, hence the old app). I have followed numerous troubleshooting steps in the “Video and Audio” settings of the AppleTV, tested the CEC and Remote settings with numerous variations without luck.I understand that I will have to use the IR remote function to control my Beam’s volume given that I’m using the optical connector. And while I’ve had the Beam responding to

I got the Arc connected and set up with Alexa and moved the Beam to the bedroom. Arc won’t turn off the Tv using Alexa. Alexa is responsive but just nothing happens

I tend to try and do as much online research as I can before a big purchase.  I’m at the point where my head is about to spin.  I’m looking for a great quality speaker that I can use inside the house, but I would also like to use in the outside unattached garage from time to time.  I don’t mind a heavy bulky unit either, as it will really be just between a particular room, and like I stated the garage.I was first set on the Move for it’s all around versatility with WiFi and Bluetooth.  The Sonos Five got my attention with what I am reading has a superior sound, but no Bluetooth.  I loose my WiFi while in garage with my iPhone, as well as an early edition echo, so I don’t think the Five would reach WiFi in the garage, though I have read that I could set up auto play and use an aux cord.  Again, I know the Five is big and bulky, I don’t mind carrying it to garage.  Also I just started reading about the Marshall Woburn 2, which gets great audio reviews and really has my attention at the m

I have a ZP100. I was able to control from my iPhone and Android devices using the S1 app. Those devices no longer work and the S1 App doesn't let me "Connect to an existing system". In fact, the buttons that are illustrated in the app do not match those of the ZP100, but I have completed updates in the past that required holding in the correct sequence and I attempted that sequence with no luck. When I Iog into the Sonos site, my device is connected. So I downloaded the Windows app and I am able to connect and play as normal. Up until a few days ago, I was also able to play using the Android device and a week ago the IOS device. Now I am limited to just the windows app. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I’m working from home during the Covid season. Wondering Sonos speaker (w/ microphone) can be used to pair with my PC via bluetooth and support Microsoft Teams meeting? I saw Sonos Move has microphone associated with it. Anyone ever used the speaker that way?  Thanks much.

I’ve got a Sonos Port setup with my Onkyo 585.  This is a Works With Sonos reciever. Issue 1: When I go to the “Works With Sonos” setting on the Onkyo, it says “No Sonos Connect Found”.  I don’t have a Connect, I have a Port.  Both the Onkyo and the Port are on the same WiFi network.  How do I get my Onkyo to recognize my Port? Issue 2:  When I play something through the Port, I can’t adjust the volume on the Onkyo.  When i put the setting on Variable I get no sound.  When i put the setting on Fixed, i get sound through the Onkyo, but it’s fixed at a setting of 51 (that i set) but i can’t adjust it with the Onkyo knob or remote.  How can I adjust the volume when using the Port? Thanks!

How do you know if Amazon Video is broadcast in Dolby Atmos?

Hello.   I updated to 11.1 yesterday, and it now appears IFTTT integration has stopped working. When I try to edit an existing applet or create a new one, I receive an error that IFTTT cannot connect to the service. I’m not sure if these two events are linked, but is anyone else experiencing IFTTT issues after updating to 11.1?

My new surrounds sound great with Movies, however they produce no sound when streaming from Youtube, Pandora, or Google Play Music. I have not been able to find a work around. Any suggestions? My Setup:Sonos ArcSonos Sub (Gen 2) Sonos OneSonos One SL ​​​​​​​

Hi,I've just plugged my ethernet cable into the Arc and disabled the WiFi on the Arc. It has now bumped my Sub and 2 One Sl's from the grouping. It is having problems reconnecting. My question is - is it not possible to run the Arc on Ethernet whilst the rest of the grouping runs on WiFi?Thanks in advance.

Hello,I am thinking of placing the Sonos One SL rear speaker as they are in the diagram. I have Sonos Arc under the tv and Sonos Sub (Gen3) next to the systems. What do you think? Will this work for surround sound when watching movies? Million thanks in advance.

HiJust curious what the HDMI cable Sonos supply with the ARC is capable of, is it HDMI 2.1 spec up to 48gbps or 18gbps.The reason I ask is in the future I may swap out a few of my HDMI cables so they are all up to 48gbps, once certified cables exist of course. Thanks

I have an Arc, two Ones for surround, and a Sub Gen 3 in my open plan living room and kitchen area.The room’s about 39 feet long by 21 feet long and about 70% of it has 18-foot ceilings. The Arc located against one lengthwise wall about 10 feet from the couch, which is in turn about 13 feet from the surround speakers behind it. I’m wondering whether to replace the surround Ones with Fives. (I have two rooms that each need a single One anyway, so I’m going to have to buy something.) I have three common usage scenarios:Listening to music passively and will moving around at volume 2. It sounds great for this. My system spends the most hours doing this.    Watching TV and movies.  The Arc and Sub combo is incredible, but the placement of my surround speakers is 12–13 feet behind my couch, at the entrance to the kitchen area, so I don’t get the full surround experience from the surround speakers.  I accept this tradeoff because I sometimes sit at a table between the living room couch and ki
