Great. I just excitedly received an email from Currys to use in store only, 15% off any Sonos product. That's a Sonos Sub for £549-15%=£466.65! However, there is a catch. There are no Sonos Subs available in any Currys store in the UK. Thanks, for nothing, Currys.
Guys I have tried to search high and wide and haven't really found a satisfactory reassurance that this specific LG model will pass 5.1 from all the HDMI sources to its optical out. Can anyone confirm that it can do this please???
I have a MacBook Air with Mac OS Sierra 10.0.2. I have installed the Sonos app on my laptop and successfully added all my desired music sources. Except one: While following the directions to a tee, I cannot add my iTunes music library. I get this error and no, the name of my computer is not over 18 characters. Can someone advise on what is going on and the steps to successfully do this?
I'm struggling adding 2 ceiling speakers powered with a ZP90 to my current system which is a 3:1 system using a playbar and 2 x play 1's. I've got the ZP90 wired to the playbar with an Ethernet cable but I can't set it as part of the system. I've tried removing the current surrounds and adding them again but it doesn't see the ZP90 speakers. Can anyone help?
My Play:3 has stopped powering on and I wondered if there are any internal fuses that may have blown with possible power surge? I've tried changing power cords, resetting using mute buttons, etc but still no power. Any suggestions?
A Sonos user would like to have a line in at the back of the PLAY:1. What do you think about it?
Good evening all, Firstly I'm new on here ( hello all ) so hope this is posted in the right section! I am not new to HiFi equipment or wireless speakers ( I have had a rather bad habit for the last 20 years ) and have had and sold more stuff than I care to think about, but I am new to Sonos, well until this weekend that is! I wanted to share the following with you as I cannot see anywhere on the forums or the net a Naim vs. Sonos comparison. Sunday afternoon, following a trip to my local John Lewis I returned home with a Play 5 Gen2 (£389) and the relatively new Naim Qu So QB (£595). I couldn't decide which one to go for and having any sort of meaningful demo was hopeless, Sonos Play 5 was connected to a Play 1, Play 3 and a Sonos soundbar which all seemed to playing at the same time on the Sonos stand, despite me trying to isolate the Play5 and even trying the line in option with the 3.5mm jack I brought with me as a last resort.( plus someone was streaming what sounded like
I have a PS4, Sky Q, sonos 3, two Sonos 1's , a Sonos playbar and Sony Bravia that's about 8 years old. At the moment I have the playbar connected to the sky Q box with an optical cable and an HDMI lead from sky box to TV. With this set up I can use the playbar to watch tv through sky. The TV does not have an optical out. My issue is trying to get the PS4 to run through the Sonos network. Can someone help?
I bought a Sonos 5 because the salesperson told me it had an AUX which would allow me to plug it into my MacBook Pro to play while composing in GarageBand. It does not appear to work. Any ideas?
If you have the full surround (playbar, sub, surrounds), which option do you typically chose when listening to music for the surrounds? Do you go full? Ambient? turn them off completely? Interested to hear what other prefer, thanks.
Hi all, Is there a way (or, can there be a way) to hear the music that is playing on the sonos system on your actual iPhone/controller device? Before you say "why would you want to do that?", I'll explain. I have numerous play:1's throughout the house, along with a connect on my entertainment system. I am a drummer and I occasionally play to a playlist that I've created in my phone (which is also my Sonos controller). Now, as you can assume, the drums are not a quiet instrument, so I wear headphones to play. If there was a capability to listen to the music on my iPhone (with headphones) and have it play throughout the house, my boys could hear that I am actually playing with a song, or, vice versa.
Hi, I have burned CDs onto my iTunes (which include album artwork) these albums artwork do not appear on my controller. The SONOS picks up the music from a NAS drive. Please advise. Many thanks Steve
"network connection speed insufficient to maintain playback buffer" is the full error message My library is NOT in the default location of my computer, which I think may be the culprit. I run windows 7 and Windows Media Player which are located on my solid state drive (C drive). My songs are stored in the E drive. This is a deal breaker, if there is no work-around.
I have a number fo Sonos Speakers, a number of Mac Laptops and a number of Android Cellphones (Nexus 5X, Huawei P8mini and many others). I have no iOS devices for reasons that I do not want to exlore at this junction. Are there plans to have Trueplay setup with Mac Laptops - MBA or MBP devices, specifically?
Does anyone have the same problem or only me? I am unable to fit my 3.5mm aux in cable into Play5 Gen 2 completely. the sound is terrible.
Unable to fit 3.5mm cable in
Can I use my Sonos AMP with two external speakers and use my Roland 700NX keyboard as the music source? I don't want to try until I get a good answer so I don't blow the AMP up. The Roland is very powerful and may need more WATTS in a larger AMP for instance.
Hi guys When will full Alexa compatibility be available?
I understand that the Sonos 5 Gen 2 can be hard-connected to external devices including a PC. I would like to do this occasionally for non-music audio. The Sonos has a 3.5mm Line-In port at the back. How do you connect the other end to the PC? Do I need to purchase a specific cable connection? For example, at the back of my PC I have six soundcard 3.5 mm port of different colours (black, yellow, green, orange, etc.
Hi Can anyone tell me if I buy a router that's supports a 1TB HDD been plugged into it will sonos recognise it? Thanks in advance
Hi, and I apologize if this question has been already addressed somewhere in the forums. I will soon be moving into a two bedroom condo, square footage of about 1100 sq. ft. I am thinking about making the jump to Sonos. I definitely want the Sub, but would it be overkill to get two Play 5's or would it be better to save some money and get two Play 3's? I plan to set up the speakers in stereo mode and put them in my living room. Any advice will be much appreciated. Thanks.
Hi - Just got my first Play 1 and Bridge last week and am blown away by how good Sonos is. I will undoubtedly be adding to my system soon but wondered in advance whether I would be able to play 2 (or more) different Spotify playlists/tracks on different speakers? I am a Spotify Premium subscriber (if that makes a difference?). Thanks.
How could I use my Sonos Play1 speakers for my Sony HD TV output? My DirecTV box is connected directly to the same router as the Sonos bridge, but not sure how to make the connection thru the router or do I need another direct cable between the DirecTV box or TV and Sonos Bridge? My Sony TV has built-in WiFi also thru the same router could that be utilized somehow? I currently use its optical audio output to an external speaker, is that a possibility? Stumped
When will be the Playbar available with a HDMI connection?
Hi - have a problem with only one speaker working - both are set up and display, however only one plays music, yesterday the issue was that although both speakers were set to work on one setting -which it is - ( Itunes) - one was working independently - also a phantom 3rd speaker has appeared - it's not set up of course but i'd like it removed - might be affecting this too. Have unistalled, reinstalled and made sure that the sonos is running through the wireless properly too help with this issue would be great can send diagnostics
