Spaces & Setups

I have Frontier Fiber internet w/Youtube TV being installed next week. I currently have my Boost wired to my TP Link router which is connected to a very old router/modem. Once they change out the router to the new Eeros router I will connect my Boost to the new Eeros router or do I connect my TP Link router to Eeros so that I can connect my Boost to the TP Link router? Thus creating Sonosnet for the rest of my Sonos speakers. I’m hoping for a smooth transition to Frontiers new Fiber internet for my Sonos system. 

I used iPhone and MacBook air (M2) to play apple music and Spotify, and the sound is perfect from Sonos Era 300 when using airplay in the app of these. But when I used the sound output from my MacBook sound setting, the sound turned to be broken and jerky.How could I fix this problem.I had update MacBook to the latest version, and when airplay the sound to bose portable home speaker. It works well at that device…….

I have multiple Sonos amps all connected to router via ethernet (and 1gb fiber internet service), and all music services I use work more or less flawlessly except Amazon Prime Unlimited HD which drops out/pauses/stutters frequently IF I START AN AMAZON PLAYLIST FROM WITHIN THE SONOS APP.  However, Amazon music plays perfectly on Sonos IF AND ONLY IF I either start Amazon on Sonos via alexa oir by aircasting from the Amazon music app from my phone.  But if I try to play anything from Amazon Music Unlimited via the Sonos app, it will not work.  Any suggestions?

The Sonos app indicated that I'm reaching the limit of albums I can add to "My Sonos".  Where did this limit come from,  what is it, and how can I save more albums?   It's not like I have many saved as it is - maybe 20 or so.

We are doing a full remodel and going to be adding Sonos.  We plan on having in wall speakers in living room, kitchen, den, and outside.  Wall speakers (or ceiling) require the “sonos amp” correct?  Other speakers, like sound bars, subs, etc., only require the “sonos port” correct?  Using sonos amp and port, we don’t need to also have a separate receiver do we? (yahama as example)?  Thank you.

Can I use something like This to connect a turntable to my Beam (Gen 1), and then be able to use it in my Sonos System? If not, why not?

I have a beam set up in a living area.  While it is fine for TV watching I want to improve my hi fi audio experience.  Would it be better to add a single Five or two Era 100s....I'm thinking that the two Era 100s might give better stereo definition...I don't have the space (or Money for 2 FIVES

Hello, I'm a noob (ie.clueless) when it comes to audio.Sonos have 30% off upgrade offer and I'm tempted to get a Beam 2 to replace my Beam gen 1. The arc is out of my price range :(So, I have a LG TV with eARC, but I watch all my movies via streaming with Apple tv. Streaming means there would be no eArc difference on that front, right?I also have PS5 and Xbox Series X and I'm wondering would the Beam 2 give me much improved audio over the og beam for the consoles? Would eARC make any difference there?What, if any others advantages would the Beam 2 give me?I have two rear Sonos ones for surround in my setup, as well. If that makes any difference.Thanks for any advice!

Hi everyone. I have two Sons Play:1 speakers and a Sonos Beam. I want to connect these to my Samsung Smart TV and use them as a surround sound system. I have been able to set them up as surrounds on the Sonos app but can only get the Beam to connect to the TV. Is it possible to get all three of my Sonos speakers to connect to my Samsung TV?

I pay for Soundtrack Your Brand and when I complained to them about how their Scheduling service doesn’t work with Sonos, and I have to use Sonos Alarms instead, I was told that they have problems with features on Sonos because Sonos doesn't support volume normalization for playlists. Sonos Alarms are not ideal, as they immediately cut off any song that is playing and then slowly start the new station listed per the alarm with the sound slowly moving to the designated volume. This is pretty jarring in the middle of service. The Alarms are made necessary because Sonos doesn't allow Soundtrack to play without using the Shuffle option, and when shuffling Soundtrack itself uses an algorithm for the shuffle so you end up hearing the same song multiple times, not matter how long the playlist is. It feels like all the features of Soundtrack are being limited because Sonos has its own commercial music competitor now, which is a real shame.

When I move my speaker from 1 room to another, unplugging and plugging back in, it disappears from my system, I then reconnect it by holding the connect button whilst I plug in. I follow the connection instruction and all works until I move it again. is there anything I can do to stop this from happening every time I move the speaker?? 

I have a small room with a wall mounted, head level Beam 2 and 2 x Play:1s on floor stands at head level on each side of the sofa, slightly behind my sitting position. The Play:1s add a lot of bass in sa mall room, I tried a Sub Mini but the room size doesn’t need it.I've ordered a pair of Era 100s using the 30% upgrade code and thinking of keeping the Play 1s purely as surround speakers and using the Eras as a stereo pair, facing the sofa, just for music playback.I've been listening to music using the Play 1s and Beam but thinking it's probably not the best way to hear music, with the ones behind me.Am I right in thinking that a dedicated speaker group pair of Era 100s facing me is the best approach?

Can I connect Sonos Era 300 and Sub Mini on Apple TV 4K?

Ok so I have the Arc, the Sub, the Amp and two in ceiling speakers and I use Apple TV for my streaming video and music.  I have just added 2 speakers (pre wired) in the ceiling of my patio. What is the best way to stream music to my patio speakers? I’d like to have a separate music tuner from my tv so I can still watch TV while playing music on the patio. I’d like to keep everything Sonos if that’s an option. Any advice would be appreciated. TIA, Todd-Orlando,Fl

Hi,I suppose that after the streaming from app is stopped the Ray will go after a while in standby mode or I’m wrong?Thank you! 

Hello all,About two days ago, I asked a question about adding existing ceiling speakers to my current set up (Beam2, Sub Mini & 2 Play One). I have been advised not to.I still want to use these ceiling speakers (independently of current Home theatre set up) as one of ceiling speaker is in a different room and it’s a pity not using it:)The cheap option I am looking at is to get the ZP100 as an amp for these speakers.1st question (maybe a bit stupid):  As ZP100 is quite old, do I need to connect it to my broadband via ethernet cable? or using Sonos bridge? or will it connect automatically to my wifi as any other recent Sonos product?2nd question: Is it ok to have my current home theatre set up on S2...and these ceiling speakers on S1?As I said, I have no intention (anymore) to group these speakers with my other Sonos products… I just want to use them because they are already there :)Many thanks guys

I want a small back speake to fill in the sound from my soundstage and will connect to my network easily !

Spotify offers podcasts, but I can’t find any in Sonos apps (iPad and android). Am I missing something ?

I miss the ability to control my sonos volume using my iPhones volume buttons.  Is the Sonos App dev team working on making this work again?  This was very useful.

Hi we are making our kitchen bigger and want to install Sonos cealing speakers and need to know cealing placement and how many to install it’s outlined in red it would be just for music.  And then the room outlined in blue is a bar room wanted seperate amp and speakers for that one also and would would like same advice.  Thank you for any help it’s appreciated.   

I am very new to REAL audio, and with all honesty, if I had not been able to shop at the base exchange, I may never have even found them.  After I went home, thought about it, and did a little research, I decided to purchase the Move 2.  I was shocked by the clarity and little bit of boom this speaker could give. I looked at my TCL (nothing wrong with them, but it was a Black Friday deal), sound bar, and sub I used to listen to music and decided I am tired of distorted jams…. I needed more…  (put on sunglasses)Papa Roach, Pink Floyd, Garth Brooks, 2 Pac, Bone Thugs and Harmony Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Kenny G on and on…  I listen to it all, and I like to listen to it loud, and now that I work from home, I do not have to wear the awesome but annoying at times headphones I always did… But I did what I always do: get excited and started looking and ordered two items from Sonos and thought I may have made a mistake…  Or my own justification to buy even more and have an awesome surround

Hi there,I have 7 pre existing ceiling speakers spread out through my upstairs floor. 2 in a screened room. 2 in kitchen. 2 in living room. 1 in master bathroom. Each are has wall mounted volume control with all 7 speakers feeding to a receiver in the living room. I’m interested in connecting through Sonos but unsure what unit or units I would need to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Hi everyone,  I am finishing up the last details to open a gym. I have seen similar topic but would still like your feedback. The gym comprises:- A small reception / coffee bar which is 14 m2- A weight lifting area which is 150 m2- A spinning area which is 35 m2- A multi funcional room which is 65 m2- A corridor leading to the changing room which is 25m2Both spinning an multi functional would have their own system as we need to equip the instructors with mics.However the weight lifting, reception and corridor should have the same content with different sound level. I hoped that the Sonos ERA 100 or 300 would create their own network to connect together and that would have been my first choice but it seems like they are not compatible with the Wired Sonos setup. What would you recommend in that case? Note, the gym is located in A small town in south America with unreliable internet… Best regards, Pierre 

Se podría conectar mi Sonos one a una android tv or escuchar la tv por el altavoz Sonos!?

Last year, my turned-off Apple TV worked fine for me to run automations and play music on my SONOS Arc. but for some time now it is no longer able to execute that way.
