Speakers

Hi there. Just got my Play 5 and want to hook it up to my Denon DP-300F turntable. No other components. I have a bunch of Play 1s in the house. That's it. Was told that I didn't need any other hardware which seemed strange. Any help would be appreciated.

I just moved into a new apartment, and my subwoofer is not consistently working. It is a two floor apartment, and I'm considering the boost but I lived in a home with two floors previously and it worked fine. When I go into room settings it shows as a question mark. I ran a diagnostic; here is the number 7529673 - can someone please assist?

have a play 5 and a play 3 in the same room and want to create a stereo pair. The app allows me to link either to another of the same, ie. two play 5's or two play 3's, but not one of each. Why is this? Surelt the technology is the same, just different speaker size and case sound path dynamics. I should be able to pair play 1 to play 3 and play 5.

I want to be ale to take my Sonos Play 1 somewhere and have instant good sound, in a hotel or a friend's home. Just plug the Sonos to the wall and use my phone to publish a Wifi network, which Sonos connects to and plays. I realize that service quality depends on how good my data feed is to my phone, but it should be good enough, otherwise it seems its just a software job to implement it..

I am trying to connect my sonos connect to my yamaha rx 675 receiver but not getting the speakers from the receiver to also have the music from the play 1 speaker. Not sure what I've done wrong. I have the audio out on the receiver to the audio in on the connect. Help. I do have output from connect to input in receiver as well as output from receiver to input in connect.  Still can't get sonos to play on yamaha or vice versa.  Help.

Hi all currently I have 1 Playbar, 1 Sub, and 2 Play1. All grouped together in "Living Room". I would like to be able to create two groups: - Living Room TV (all of the above) - Living Room Musik (just Sub and Play 1 or Sub and Playbar) right now this is not possible as a single speaker cannot be in more than one group ......

I accidentally got lotion on the front of my speaker, and the outline of the lotion is still there and its really bothering me. Fortunately it hasn't impacted the sound of the speaker. But I was wondering if anyone knew how i can clean off the outline of where the lotion fell?

I am moving to NYC from London and have two play 1's and a playbar. Will these devices work in the US? I think I need to buy a new power cable and change the current, is that right? Thanks!

Does it matter whether you connect speakers to the 2.4 or 5 GHz network? Besides if someone has a iphone 4 or something not capable of connecting to the 5 Ghz network...

Can someone advise I had a problem indexing my music library, in short, the sonos software would not allow me to remove a music share (music folder on my PC desktop) so I decided to uninstall all the controllers on 3 mobile phones and the software on my PC and try again. However, when I re-installed the software on my PC the problem remained. I therefore followed advice on this community and carried out a factory reset on both my Play 1's and my Play 5 (Gen 2). When I tried to follow the instructions to connect to a new system the network will not recognise any of the speakers. I have also tried to connect the Sonos 5 by Ethernet cable directly to the Router, the router detects the Sonos 5 but when the option to connect is selected the installation does not go any further and I am provided a warning that the system could not connect. I have ensured the Firewall is configured to allow Sonos controllers and have turned the firewall (Norton 360) off/disabled. I have also tried switc

As a stand-alone iPhone app, TuneIn Radio can play rtmp streams no problem, but the TuneIn service within Sonos cannot do it ("incorrectly encoded" error message). Let's get rtmp capability up and running in Sonos asap!

I have read quite a few posts such as https://en.community.sonos.com/controllers-software-228995/password-to-avoid-guests-changing-music-36704 I have a dual band router and guest mode enabled. As such, when connected on guest network and I try to access the Sonos via the Android app, I'm shown that Sonos is searching for the system and can't find it! This is great. The issue is, whilst logged onto the guest network, when I use a casting app (to send music) I can access the speakers and as such, stream! This defeats the purpose of the guest network which was the advice given on the cited post above. More worryingly, this actually appears to corrupt the guest setting on the router because afterwards, I can access everything via Sonos (whilst connected on the guest network). However, I am assuming this is an issue of the router, not the Sonos system! I've seen many pubs/function rooms etc use Sonos systems and as such I have to believe there is a way to make it secure but I'v

Will sonos be partnering with HomeKit like they have done with amazon???????????

Hi people. My daughter is having a birthday party on saturday. But the venue has no wifi and we need some music for games. I wanted to tak my Play 5 (1st Gen) and plug my phone into it using line in. Then play my spotify music that has been downloaded to the phone. I have read the advice to set up autoplay, which I have done. But when I have tried the line in without a wifi signal it wont let me access the app. Can anyone help? Thanks

Have a mix of 5s and 3s in different rooms. I cannot listen to any music on Spotify without at some point the music jumping half way through the song, stopping completely, loosing connection to spotify, or randomly stopping in certain speakers. It's doing my head in!! Sometimes different devices will show different speakers available! Would really welcome help!

I generally use my Sonos system in party mode. All zones are playing the same source. When adjusting the volume for a room I am in, I later discover the volume in another room is way to loud. I don't realize it until I walk into that room or my family complains. Is there a way to specify a maximum volume or freeze volume changes for a room? Regards, ultrajones

Hello all, I am currently using 4 ZP120 connect amps in various wired speaker zones at my home. I now would like to add 2 wireless speakers in my garage because its way too far away from everything else. Is there a way to do this using my ConnectAmp system?

I'm suddenly unable to connect to Spotify through Sonos. I've removed the service and re-added it, and also changed the wireless channel, but it still won't connect. I'm able to connect to Pandora and Slacker no problem. Diagnostic number is: 7433638

Hi all, I currently have a Sonos Playbar, Sonos SUB and a Connect AMP wired with 2 rear speakers. I'm in doubt what would give me the best audio: Sonos Playbar + Sonos Sub (current setup) or connect 2 B&W 685 to act as front speakers and sell the Playbar/Sub. I will lose a bit of bass but adding stereo effect by the 685's. Anyone who has done this switch or experience with both? Thanks in advance!

Is the Play 1 due to be discontinued? I have several Play 1s already and was thinking of adding another but the price here in the UK has just increased (to somewhere between £190 to £200) and I don't want to buy something which will soon be replaced. The Play 1 is a relatively old model launched several years ago and I suspect it's a candidate for renewal especially as it doesn't support a line in and the sound is less than perfect. Sonos announced a tie in with Amazon Echo voice operated devices and maybe a new Sonos speaker will be launched with a mic in it? In addition, Sonos's "protected garden" of subscription only music sources may be giving way to commercial pressures to open up like the competition does which make me think a revamp of the product line could be due in order to make Sonos stay comepetitive. Manufacturing layoffs and change of CEO suggest to me this may be due soon. Anyway, you have read my concerns, so back to my question ... is the Play 1 due for re

Diagnostic No. 7461293. We have had our sonos speaker about 2 months, had no problem with setup etc all working fine. 2 weeks ago it just stopped working, tried to reconnect following all on screen info, could not connect via wifi not recognised. prompted to connect via Ethernet cable, went through setup process via pc & windows controller, connected the wireless setup no problem, connected all other devices phones ipads etc. Then unplugged speaker to move back into lounge, everything has disconnected with no wireless network detected? Does not work unless its connected via Ethernet cable, so not actually a wireless speaker. Please advise.

Play:5 speakers part group setting keep dropping from the group. I have to remove them from group and re-add them to get them to play again. How I can prevent this from happening? Is this a wifi strength issue?

I setup my Play:1 using the ethernet cable and hard wired to my router. When i unplug the ethernet cable i can't get the app on my iphone/ipad to work. Is the ethernet cable required if i only have the one Play:1 speaker?

Can I use my Sonos system with this set-up ?

What features are different in the new Play 5 compared to the previous Play 5? Is the dark (grey/black) the same color? Same inner handle (upper back)? Can the new Play 5 be paired as surrounds? Currently have 1x Soundbar, 3x Play 3, 2x Play 5. Windows mobile App please!!! Looking at more Play 5. With VPN active Sonos is not detected. How does one have VPN and access Sonos? Thanks
