Spaces & Setups

Hi all,I am new with Sonos and just purchased Sonos Beam Gen 2. After using, I am realizing that I am missing the Sub-woofer sound from the same.Can someone suggest me the ways to add Sub-woofer to Sonos Beam Gen 2?thx,Nitin M

Does anyone have thoughts about which of these combinations to choose? For music/audio, not TV.Price is roughly the same, within £50.

Newb here & couldn’t find the answer to my question: If I have an Amp & use wired speakers for L/R fronts, would I also be able to connect 2 One SL’s (wrong model in title) to use as L/R rear surrounds? I would use the 2 wired fronts for my turntable & then all 4 for TV.Can I do that with a single Amp?Thanks!

Hi Community!I currently have an integrated amp with multiple inputs (turntable, CD player, AM/FM tuner) and multiple passive speaker outputs grouped by room (kitchen, patio, living room, etc.) The speakers are connected to a switcher for each set (room) and connected to the integrated amp via two L/R speaker connections.I am wondering if the switcher could connect to Amp via the two L/R speaker connections (thinking yes). However, I do not know how to solve the component input question. Would I need a preamp?The goal is to take my existing analog/passive system, integrate it with SONOS speakers, and control everything through the SONOS app. However, the speaker switcher would probably be recognized as one channel, right? Would I need an app for each room, then? Thank you!

I revised things recently when my old computer died, which we used as a local server, including a Music folder that we accessed via SONOS. When we got a new computer, we canned the server idea and placed all our files, including our music folder, onto Microsoft OneDrive. Is it possible to stream from OneDrive? What about some other online repository? Or must it be local?  

HiI have an lg cx and sonos arc with sub.I wanted to cure a hdmi control issue with my Apple TV 4K box and disabling cec control on my lg cx fixed it.My sonos Arc seems to operate still, all be it I can’t control volume for live tv via tv remote anymore. But app to do that is fine.Basically all I want to know is is there any other issues that could arise from not using hdmi CEC control?Is it an important feature to keep enabled or am I fine having it disabled? thank you  

Hi,I currently have a Rega Planar 3, Rega MK5, integrated amp, and Polk R200s. I am looking at the Port so I can connect to other Sonos speakers in my house. However, if I don't want to connect to the other Sonos speakers, is it possible to disable the Sonos Port and have the analog signal maintained to my Polks? 

HelloI have beam gen2 plus sub gen3 and would really like to add my turntable to the set up. I’m going round in circles (pun intended) trying to decide between an amp, a port or a 5 with a line in. I’ve tried cabling it up to my tv with the RCA but it won’t play through the HDMI arc, it will play via its own input but I don’t want the tv on whilst playing.A second hand 5 is probably most cost effective but would that work with what I already have?  Also tried combining the HDMI into 1 input into the beam but it didn’t like it.  Many thanks in advance. steve  

If playing from Amazon the queue is no longer in use. I can load the queue from Apple music, but cannot find a way to play that queue and stop Amazon….

Trying to search on mixcloud or as users on Sonos search but nothing found, is the service down?

I recently installed several era 100 units for a client.   They are all connected to Alexa.  50% of the time when I tell Alexa to play something on a era100, I can see in the Sonos app the music change and start playing but I have no sound.   I have to press pause, play in the Sonos app for it to have sound.    It’s doing this on all the era100 units.    Any ideas?   Never encountered this before.  

I own an Arc connected to 2 symfonisk as surround. Is it possible to turn on and off the lights of the symfonisk via the Arc’s voice control?

I am considering purchasing the Ultimate Immersive set w/Arc but before I pull the trigger, want to see if I can use my existing speakers. If so, what do I need to accomplish this?  Would one Sonos Amp connect to all?Fronts= Polk audio RTI70 floor standing speakersCenter= Klipsch RC-52 IIPowered Sub= Klipsch R-12SW If possible, I also have a pair of Definitive AW-6500’s outside that are currently not connected to anything that I would like to connect. Would the Gen2 Sonos connect amp be suitable for these? A Yamaha RX-V675 receive is currently powering them. I don’t care if I lose the receiver as I intend on Sonos (whatever I get)replacing its functionality for occasional FM Music and Movie watching. Thanks for any insight into my question. Victor

When i put my sonos move on the charging base it will automatically connect to content on my phone that i wasn’t even listening to or watching and suddenly it is blaring in my house.  OMG is that irritating!!  I NEVER want auto play, period.  Can they not add a setting to prevent that from happening regardless of what app is causing it to start??  That was a rhetorical question, obviously Sonos could do that.  Is there some way of accomplishing what i’m asking about?  Please help!

Hi guys,I´ve been searching internet for almost a year now and I still can´t find anyone who sells the-best-for-my-daughter´s-room speaker, which I believe to be Play:1. I don´t expect it to be new of course, fairly used and treated will do. Can you point me to a right direction or maybe you sell one yourself?I live in Czech Republic (Czechia now).Let me know, thanks!JJ

Dear all,Hi, I’m a new Sono user.I would like to ask here some questions and search for suggestions, so let’s start:AFAIK TruePlay is configurable only with iPhone. What if I have only Android? Isn’t there another way? Which speakers are compatible with my Sonos Beam Gen 2 to expand my Home Theater System? Are there compatible speakers that are wireless and rechargable? My goal is to use them only when needed, so when I play a movie and then place them somewhere when not used. In case I add two speakers, are then they added as back-left and back-right speaker? I mean on a Dolby audio movie I’ll able to listen the ambient sound coming from behind with the back audio channels? Last but not least, what would you give priority to expand my setup. Starting from a little subwoofer or starting from the rear satellite speakers?Thanks a lot to all!Simon

Have picked out the Ultimate which includes the ARC, Subwofer, and 2 ERA 300s. I have 3 questions:Do I Need, Should I get, 2 additional ERA 300s for the front of the room or will the ARC suffice? Is that overkill? Because of 11 or 12 foot ceiling should I get adjustable stands versus fixed for the two rear ERA 300s? I just purchased a Yamaha RX-A4A how will the Sonos system connect up to it?

I just purchased the Beam Gen 2.  I have a Roku Ultra 2022 and a Sony with an ARC HDMI port.  The new IOS app S2 always shows in “Dolby Atmos” on all content.  This can’t be true.  Does the Roku Ultra upscale every signal to Atmos?  

Moderator note: Newer Sonos products do support Bluetooth. Please see our support article Use Bluetooth on Sonos for more information. Hello - I have installed sonos system with amp and ceiling speakers and i want to be able to connect via Bluetooth instead of streaming over wifi

I am setting up an outdoor speaker system. Already have a Move and One. Can I connect these speakers to a non-Sonos amp, which will also connect my outdoor wired speakers? 

I moved into a new house and would like to get speakers for my TV in the family room, but because of how the TV is mounted on a stone fireplace hearth, it would be impossible to mount or place a sound bar anywhere. So if I were not going to use a sound bar, I’m wondering what combination of Sonos products would I need for home theater audio.Ideally I’d want to add surround speakers eventually, and I’d also like to be able to stream music from the same speakers (hence why I’m hoping I can find a Sonos setup that works). Any advice?

 We recently bought a new house. At the moment I do not yet own any sonos products. At the moment we mainly use a set of KEF x300A that is in my office that is adjacent to my current living room. We would like a multi-room system in our new house. I have attached an image of the floor plan of the new house. The kitchen and living room on the right have an open connection. I would like to provide the three rooms that I have circled with a system first.Can someone advise us? 

Hi,I am designing a system incorporating the Sonos Port to a Background Music System. I have searched for technical documents online and unfortunately cannot find the answer I am looking for. My question is: Can I connected Sonos port to a network switch (corporate LAN) and users can connect to Wireless Access points in various rooms? The system will consist of multiple Sonos Ports installed with in the AV rack and to be designated to be used for particular areas with in the building. How can users differentiate which port to connect in any given area? Can we rename each device dedicated to each area or can we hide other Ports and only show Ports for that particular area? As to LAN security, what thing should be considered during setup? Can you please provide configuration documents and other manuals?Thanks RegardsBH

I keep getting the error “Could not connect Sonos right now. Please try again later.” when trying to connect Sonos to IFTTT.  Any ideas?
