Hello. Could anyone in the know kindly advise what the Sonos Connect box dimensions are and what the shipping weight of the set is please? I'm trying to assess shipping costs/options. TQ.
Was working fine via wireless for 2 years or so. One day disappeared from zone list and no lights on speaker at all. Tried a different outlet but nada. Is it toast? What's the warranty on a Play 5?
Hi Does it make any difference in term of sound quality and output if I mount my play 1 upside down on the wall? Reason I do this so I can easily see status light access to the button
I have an investment in sonus that I am thinking of ebaying and moving to a DTS play-fi compatible system.. due to My 2.4ghz wifi and saturated and i have band overlap from neighbors Sonos goes goofy things with STP on the ethernet side that gives my managed switches heartburn This results in dropouts and poor performance and questionable future proof with Alexa -- yeah I know there was an accountment for future support from sonos but I hate the clumsiness of skills " tell so and so to do XYZ" .. far easier to tell echo dot to "play music" in addition, Amazon announced play-fi support for streaming and voice commands Also I like teh idea of more of an open platform than closed sonos -- My system is the sonos sub 7 play:1 and a connect to distribute amazon music from an echo dot So what are the community thoughts on DTS play-fi in general and definitive tech in particular?
I have a whole new sonos system consisting of a play base, sub and two play 1's for the home theatre component. Everything works brilliantly except when I play a blu ray dvd. I have a relatively new Sony Bravia smart tv and a brand new Sony blu ray dvd player. During the start up and menu of the dvd all works fine. But the moment I play the movie I lose the sound. I have double checked the disc, the player, the hdmi cable on another tv (not connected to the sonos) and it all works fine. Strangely if I change the sound set up in the tv back to tv from audio system I do get sound from the movie thru both the tv and the sonos. But as soon as I change it back to audio system I lose the sound agin. I am totally stuck, can someone help?????

Hi, I am just setting up a Playbar in a Standard configuration. I notice it has 2 x RJ-45 ports on its back. And one short Ethernet cable was included in the packaging. What is their purpose?
can i add more power to the connect system from another source?
Hi All, Looking for a recommendation for a large outdoor space. I tend to play movies outside on a projector in the summer, connected to my laptop. One challenge I have is that one pair of speakers tends to be fine for folks sitting close to them, but not great for folks sitting further away. My hope was to come up with a configuration via Sonos that would allow me to have sound for those upfront, and those further away. My initial thought was to do something like use a PLAY:5 with a pair of PLAY:3s or PLAY:1s Place the PLAY:5 upfront, and the two PLAY:3s (or 1s) near the rear of the backyard. My question to everyone: is something like this even possible? I'm not looking for surround sound, just a means to hear the same audio from a movie at all parts of the backyard. Appreciate any advice. Thanks.
Amazon music playing fine and Tunein app also. However as soon as I try streaming google play music through Sonos, the track immediatly skips to next until playlist is finished. Only started doing recently. Any ideas?! Diagnostic number is 7292320
I have a Sonos player 3 next to a big window. It gets really really hot their because of the sun at this time of the year and I was wondering if it could damage the Sonos player. It would kinda suck to change the position (by far best position^^), but I don't want to damage it (it was kinda expensive for me :p)
At the shop where I work, we use pandora on sonos speakers. We pay for a pandora account so there are no ads, but a couple of weeks ago, ads started popping up. We renewed our Pandora subscription and then I went into sonos settings and updated the account information for Pandora. Unfortunately, we are still getting ads when we use a pandora station. What should I do now?
I have 2 use cases where I'd like to be able to quickly and easily reassign a sonos sub to different speakers. Master Bedroom. I have 2 Play 1's in a stereo pair on the night stands. Would like to be able to have sub assigned to these but then change/toggle the sub to be assigned to the Playbar that's in the armoire with the tv. When I'm listening to music on the Play 1's, I don't want to open up the armoire....I just want to use the Play1's with the Sub. When I'm watching TV, I want to have the Sub assigned to the Playbar. Buying a second Sub seems silly. Outdoor Pergola. Similar situation. I have a TV with a Soundbar and a Sub. I also have two Play1's mounted high in the pergola facing the pool. If I'm just in the pool, I would like the Play 1's and the Sub connected. If we are watching TV/movies, I'd like the sub assigned to the Playbar. Is there a solution for this that doesn't involve purchasing 4 subs?
Has anyone ever placed a Playbar in a niche over a fireplace and had to use it in the lay down configuration (like on a cabinet) with the Playbar 5' above finished floor? I have no space to mount Playbar facing outward. Was wondering how it might sound. I thought maybe some sound would reflect off the tilted TV screen.
Hello, So I recently purchased a record player with a preamp so that I could play my records through the Sonos speakers that I have. Right now, I have the playbar and sub connect to my tv. How can I connect my record player to play through these speakers? I know the connect and connect:amp would work, but is there a cheaper option that would also work, while not compromising the sound quality?
Is there a max number of speakers for a sonos bridge to connect? I've just bought a single sonos one but when I plug it in there is no identification of the sonos network / bridge. Maybe I have too many speakers / rooms set up? I have a single bridge running a playbar / 2 surround one's and a sub as a single TV room, A 5 in the kitchen, a 3 in the garage and I now want to add a sonos 1 as a bathroom. Am I maxed out on the bridge?
Is it possible to save volume presets/profiles ? I've had a good look around and can't seem to see anything of the sort. Just wondering if I'm missing something. Would be good to be able to save presets ie. dinner party, sunday morning, whole house etc Where as for each defined setting each speaker had a saved volume
New listing on FCC today for Sonos product 'S15' Label is totally square so could be a new connect type device ? Let the speculation begin !

Hi Is there a way to pair the sub with 2 group of speakers I have 5.1 surround with playbased and 2x play 1 and a sub I also have a pair of play 5 gen2 which I like to play music on it. The surround sound setup I don't like the sound of it for music, great for movie. I like to setup so the pair of play 5 use the sub when I listen to music and in surround setup when I watch movie
