Spaces & Setups

Hello! I have a Hisense Roku tv and the picture has gone out. I couldn’t connect my Sonos system to it anyway, after numerous calls to Sonos for help, so maybe it’s a blessing in disguise. When I can afford to buy a new one, how will I know if it will be compatible with Sonos? I have the Playbar, Sub, and two satellite speakers, which I believe are called Sonos One SL.Would Sony tvs work with my system? What other brands?Thank you in advance for any help!

Hello there..I’m wondering if I can group a Sonos Roam with two Sonos One and transmit via bluetooth to Roam and the Roam shares the stream to other grouped speakers. In my ongoing frustration to save about £10 a month (I know, but it’s better in my pocket than theirs), I’ve been trying to find a way to play YouTube via my Sonos stereo pair. YouTube are idiots.Their interface is so basic and clunky that I’m not even tempted to spend out on their speaker system....and it MUST be costing them money as people simply won’t spend on a platform that doesn’t work with their systems. If anyone has ideas on how to make this work, I’m all ears.I only have two Sonos One and 6 3rd gen Echo Dots. 

HI Community,I have the gen 1 Sonos Amp wired to 4 speakers in our cealing and a sonos Sub also. A room called Kitchen.For easy listening.On my more serious hifi system i run a Cambridge Audio evo 150 amp which is wired to my BKS Hybrid 150 speakers. To this Cambridge i have connected the old Sonos connect (called living room) so i can get sonos sound to run in both rooms. This is working the 2 rooms are not in sync which is quite annoying.Any ideas would be appreciated

hi. I need advice. I have a sonos arc + sub (gen3) and I would like a full-fledged dolby atmos sound. Can anyone advise me on what speakers I should buy?

Hi, I have honed in on the Sonos Arc 7.1.4 Home Theater Bundle and adding two separate Era 300’s for our new home build. The Bundle would be in the family room and the added Era 300’s in the kitchen. I am trying to be as wire free as possible in our open concept family room/kitchen room. My goal is to have the ability to play the family room setup along with the two added Era 300’s in the kitchen at the same time or have the ability to watch a movie with the surround sound setup in the family room while playing streaming music in the kitchen.  Any advice is appreciated as this is a big expense and I want to make the right decision.

Can not control volume from my cel phone

I have purchased new Sony TV KD-55X75WL which I wish to connect to Sonos 5 speakerOn my old Sony TV worked well via Line-InThe new TV has Dolby Atmos

Have own Sonos system for 2 years and never been able to connect to Audible. Many talks to support and no solution. I live in Iceland and have Audible UK, but when I connect to Audible the authentication is always for Audible US. Support tells me that I have to change my Sonos Profile and live in UK. For many months my Profile says I live in UK but still the authentication is for Audible US instead of UK.Why don’t let user choose witch Audible Market u want to authenticate against? Like everyone else does it.

I have a weird one. Is Sonos Radio HD Channel New Wave down? Every other channel I try works, but not that one. It’s one of my favorites, but it isn’t playing anything. Just wanted to see if it was just me or everyone. 

Buonasera, vorrei acquistare il mio primo prodotto Sonos ( Era100) e volevo sapere se si può collegare alla TV via bluetooth senza bisogno della barra audio.Grazie 

 Are Sonos devices in a surround setup using dedicated wireless connections even if all devices are connected wired via Ethernet and WiFi is disabled in the settings?I am running a Sonos surround setup (arc, sub and two era300). All devices are connected to the home Gigabit network via dedicated Ethernet cables. WiFi is disabled in the Sub and Arc settings. The Eras are connected via Sonos Combo adapter. Everything works fine.Checking the web interface of the surround devices via port 1400 there are no ath0 entries in the ipconfig report.But I am still wondering if there is a wireless connection between the surround devices. Can someone from Sonos give a „official“ answer? 

I have the Arc, Sub and Era 300 connected to my LG for surround cinema sound, would I notice the difference if I added Sonos Amp with a second sub?I love watching movies as close to cinema sound i can get on Sonos. 

I would like music to start playing on three different speakers at the same time. Thought an alarm would be best, but, even though there is a grouped rooms option, it only goes off on one speaker. A few questions for you pros:What is the purpose of that “included grouped speakers” option if it does not play speakers grouped together? I have multiple groups, in which the same speakers are grouped. How does checking that option determine which of the speaker’s groups are triggered? Finally, if there is no way to make this work, would setting the same alarm (to Sirius XM) on multiple speakers seperately work?Thanks all!  D

Hi. I'm a Sonus system newbie and new to the forum as well. I'm just looking for a little advice on the best state to leave a Sonus system in when it's not being used. We have a new home theater  system consisting of an LG OLED tv, Sonos ARC, Sub & Era 100's for surround sound.My wife, or I, will very frequently use blue tooth headphones to watch tv so as not to disturber the other. In order to use the BT headphones I have disable both HDMI-CEC and eARC on the tv. With HDMI-CEC & eARC disabled the status LED on the Sub and Era's remain white as long as Sub Audio and Surround Audio are left enabled on the Sonos app. If I disable the Sub & Surround Audio on the Sonos app, the LED on both starts a slow green flash.I know a white LED means the device is powered and ready to use and the slow green flash just means the devise is disabled in the Sonos app. My question: is there a recommended state for the devices in when not in use? Does one state consume more power than the other

this could..i guess make some sense if i had the music was stored on a NAS or another PC on the network, but when i try to play locally stored Mp3 files from the very same PC, 80% of the time i get ‘an error occured the local>path>to>library>song.mp3 could tnot be found’. It gets even worse whe i try to play said music on the PC over network...but it does work 10% of the times. I reinstalled, reindexed, reset the router, firewall is fully allowing sonos service and client.

If I have the tv/sonos on all day by the evening I have to turn the volume up a lot.

I have an audio-technical AT-LP120-USB Direct-Drive Professional USB and Analog Turntable System. I’d like to find the correct Sonos component that will connect the turntable to my Sonos system. I have Sonos Immersive Set with Arc (Arc, sub and 2 Ones) for TV and streaming music audio in the living room; and Sonos Fives in our bedroom and den. The turntable (haven’t yet used) is on a shelf in the den, near power but not near the Sonos Five. I’m looking for a component that will allow the turntable to connect (and be an audio source) to the Sonos system via my WiFi network. The turntable has a cable with RCA-type L&R connectors and a female USB Type B socket. What is the best, and hopefully most economical, Sonos component that can connect the turntable output to my Sonos system via WiFi?

Hi - I’m planning a construction project in my house and part of it includes re-doing our TV area. It’s a small area - around 12’ x 8’. I’m thinking about doing a setup with an Arc, Sub, and 2 ceiling speakers for rear surround via AMP. I had a few questions about this setup.How would this zone be used if I want to listen to music on it instead of TV? Specifically w/ regards to the surrounds. Will the AMP for the surrounds and the SUB be linked to the ARC and act as one zone, whether for TV or music? Or is each component like a separate assignable room? I’m trying to figure out how to get this space to work best for both TV and music. How does the TV etc recognize the configuration for it’s output? Does it act like a 3.1 setup and use the source material mix? Or does it just come as a bitstream and Sonos does its own thing with the mix? If I need to have multiple inputs - i.e. a streamer, blu-ray, etc.. I assume they just all go into the TV and I use the TV inputs to switch back and fo

I’ve just received new speakers for my living room. 2 Era 100 and Sub Mini. Since before I have a ray connected to my TV because it turned out that the TV I bought a year ago had terrible sound. My use case for the new speakers is listening to music. Don’t care that much about surround sound for the TV but okey if it comes in the package without messing up sound quality for music.  When installing the new speakers it ended up as a surround set up with the ray sound bar. As default when playing music it mainly used the ray and the Era speakers as some kind of “mood managers”. Not at all my intention. I want Era as stereopairs preferably without the ray in the mix at all.   To improve the situation I’ve changed surround settings in two ways:Changed music setting to “Full” adjusted music level to +15It makes the system behave a bit more as expected and sound did improve, ray is still playing though. So I’m closer to what I’ve been after, but after playing around a bit with settings I’ve f

So how do that?

I have a spare connect:amo and am planning to use it to power some ceiling speakers in a bathroom (they will be the only speakers in the bathroom). Will the sonos sonance speakers work ok with the connect:amp? I believe I won’t be able to use trueplay with the connect:amp - how much does this matter with the sonance speakers. Would it make a huge big to upgrade from connect:amp to amp (an expence I would prefer to avoid if there is not much difference. Any replies/advice gratefully received.

I currently listen to my music (ripped from my old CDs) by sending it from iPad or iPhone to my Beam via AirPlay. If I bought an Era 300 and sent the music there instead, would there be a noticeable improvement in quality? Thanks.

Will I lose my current SONOS playlists and have to re-create them if I upgrade to a new SONOS speaker?

My play:1 fell and now has a lot of static.any suggestions for DIY repair? my system has a playbar, sub-gen2 and another play:1 for surrounds. What can I purchase to replace the poorly performing play:1?
