Speakers

No sound on Beam 2 when yhe Bluetooth sound from Roam is shared with it since one week.

I read in another forum that sonos is testing new Arc hardware. What's up with that?

I currently only have one Sonos beam & had a couple of questions regarding streaming music.Is there a rule of thumb on how much data streaming music will use per hour? When I add a satellite (or more), will they all share that one data stream, assuming they’re all synchronized to play the same thing? Are any of the streaming services better than others in terms of bit rate, or is that even an option?thanks!

I know this sounds trivial but I’m having trouble connecting a Play 5 with my S1 app.  It was disconnected during troubleshooting trying to get my existing S1 system speakers to work with the new S2 because I just got a Beam Gen 2.  It is the only holdout - it can’t work with the S2 but it is now disconnected and so I need to get my S1 app to recognize it.  Currently, it has an ethernet cable connected to it and is powered on.  In the S1 app (after I reset it) I get the option to set up a new Sonos system, or connect to an existing system.  I choose connect to existing system, and then get “Use Sonos S2 app” or more options menu which essentially lead me full circle back to resetting the app.  My conclusion is that SONOS wants me to have a “new” app (new credentials to log in) to the S1 app.  Nothing seems to be working.  Would it be appropriate to simply unplug the existing S2 devices in the house and then try to connect my Play 5 to an existing system?  Fooling the S1 into thinking t

Hi, does anyone know how to disable that terrible volume ‘beep’ when you amplify the volume?

I have 8 play5 (Gen1) and a S3. If I buy a Sonos smart speaker would it be compatible? Could I use Siri to control the complete system?

Hi all. I bought the Sonos sub with the notion of placing under my couch (foolishly without measuring) and it won’t fit. I can place it in a cupboard in my built in TV unit. Wife hates the look of it so this is my only shot. Would this be pointless or ineffective? Is it supposed to be on the ground? Would the sun being placed in a piece of wooden furniture sound terrible or vibrations that would diminish my sound system? Units not test installed so I can’t test and secondly as it is still in its packaging I may be better off returning the item.  thanks. 

Is there a way to disable unwanted sound effects? The music getting louder or softer as I swipe my finger on the Era 100 is exactly the function I expect of a volume control, yet there’s a second artificial sound that not only inexplicably intrudes on the music experience but is redundant of what I can already hear. Please tell me there’s a way to make the beeps go away, they’re harshing my mellow, offending my fellow listeners, and I think make the system sound like a cheap toy. 🤞

Both of my ONE Gen2 Sonos speakers suddenly stopped working and will not power on. Have tried different outlets, etc. I just got them In May 2021.  Is this common lifespan for Sonos speakers??

Hey everyone,I saw this was partially covered on a previous thread, but since that was a couple of months ago I started a new one.Received my Era 300 about an hour ago today, and the back is not uniform at all, with a much bigger gap on the back plate on the top right hand side.This is very noticeable too, and whilst I appreciate this is not a new issue I am a little surprised it is still happening nearly 2 months after it was first reported.Called support and whilst on the phone to them I also noticed the grill at the top right has a similar gap, which you can push in, only to come back out a few minutes later.Support reassured me the next one should be good, but really, how can they promise this? Do they have a “good” batch and a “bad” batch?Lugging this box all the way to the pick up point tomorrow and hoping for the best.A bit of a fiasco, especially when I will be away soon and likely to take ages swapping the speakers but there you go.Whilst we are at it, any news on the front dr

I asked this question over in the sonos reddit forum and others are having same issues so thought I would bring over here.What are people using for their usb charger for the Sonos move? I attempted to use my MacBook pros charger but it didn’t work. I have the 60watt brick but from what I read it should be able to still work.So then I read it might be the cord as they have chips in them and knowing Apple they locked their cord down. So I bought an anker power line 3.1 usb c cable and tried it with the MacBook brick again and it still didn’t work.So before I keep buying and returning curious if anyone has had success with certain chargers with the move. Thanks!

Can I connect Sonos Play:3 Speakers to my laptop?

Hi, losing the will with the reliability of my sonos system. I run a split system with newer s2 compatible products and then 2 old Gen 1 play 5s on the s1 as a separate network. All was well till about a month ago when the play 5s just stopped working. I have tried everything rebooting, restarting routers, running it wired and unwired. When I do a complete restart, delete and reboot the app, reset the speaker and do a new set up, the app recognises the speaker and the network initially, it creates the Sonos wifi network temporarily but when you then need to select the wifi network again that’s where it stops. I have a split band 2.4 and 5ghz router and am selecting the 2.4 as I know Gen 1 is incompatible with 5 ghz. As I work long hours attempting to call Sonos with their opening hours (no eves and weekends) is difficult. Please help??!

Bonjour, il semble que lorsqu’on branche une enceinte sonos en filaire, elle fasse un second réseau (sonosnet).Est-ce bien le cas ?Est-ce que les nouvelles enceintes Era 100, 300 fonctionne de la même manière.J’ai 3 era 100, une arc et un caisson et depuis que j’ai la arc et le caisson j’ai pas mal de micro coupure donc je recherche à optimiser. Merci d’avance.

Ok I’m transitioning to the Sonos world from Apple. Saw the Move 1 on sale at Costco for $299. Seems like a great price $150 less than a Move 2. I bought two for a stereo setup. I’m a big fan of Peter Pee on Youtube and he has me convinced the Sonos Five is probably the best choice. As far as I can tell the current gen 3 has been out for about 3 years and it looks like Sonos introduces a new version about every 5 yrs.  The question is whether Sonos Fives will go on Black Friday sales or any sale price before the end of the year.

I can’t seem to locate where to disconnect some speakers that were added to a system and set them back up on a new system

Strange situation (case *******). I have a Sonos One, a One SL, a Move and a Move 2. All worked fine for the past several months. The other day, only the One was playing music. The other speakers are showing up in the system with a strong WIFI signal, and they show that they are playing (on the app the little volume bars bounce with the music), but no sound. I can pause the music from any of the speakers, so I don’t see a connection issue but this just happened out of the blue - no network changes or updates. I went through all the standard reboots (router, etc) and then did a factory reset on each speaker multiple times. At one point the Move 2 miraculously started playing, but once I paused the music there was nothing more from it. I spent hours working on this, and it’s killing me that I have a few thousand dollars of speakers that don’t work. I had over an hour of tech support with Sonos, but no success. I eventually had to drop the call to do actual work. Anyone else had this situ

I was listening to a Vergecast podcast recently and there was an Era 300 ad included. It claimed it has a “3.5mm port you can plug anything into”. I don’t own an Era but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t have a 3.5mm jack.

Looks like the previous thread got closed - but the problem is still here  I have 3 Roams and 2 of them went bad before 2 years - the 3rd is still ok but not quite a year old yet.Sonos needs to step up on this - all I want is for them to replace the batteries or send me new ones & instructions how to replace. My 1st call to support ended in the tech telling me they would either send new batteries or replace the untis - they did neither. I have been a loyal Bose user for 30 years and made the switch to Sonos slowly 2 years ago & started buying new Sonos speakers - I am wondering if I made the correct choice - clearly Sonos is not supporting the Roam product.

Hello, first of all sorry for my bad English. I have the following problem, my play 5 gen1 only outputs sound over sub and high. Midrange is dead. I'm already disassembling the play5. You can't see faults with the eye. Which components are responsible for the center? I would be very grateful for tips. 

Brand new Sonos move and I can’t get it to work at all it’s getting very tiresome to use the Sonos system.  I have so many components of my system I am not prepared to lose by upgrading to sonos 2 appthis new speaker won’t downgrade and there for me - $659 I can’t use  

Hey Community,I currently have a bunch of alexa speakers all over my house, the sound isn’t great but I love that I can connect speakers and play music throughout my entire house. I want to upgrade, looking at sonos. I’m looking at the ultimate immersive set with Arc (includes Arc, sub gen 3, (2) era 300’s). I’d like to be able to connect additional speakers to that for when I play music, thinking 4 additional ERA 300’s and 2 Move 2’s. Anyone know if I can play music simultaneously on all of those devices?

I have a sonos sub paired to two fives, a one and a one sl in my living room. While I like the 5s and ones, im just not impressed with the sub for music. I’ve changed settings in it, turned trueplay off, moved the sub etc, and I just don’t like how it sounds. For $800 it doesn’t seem to produce much bass.  I have an Amp connected to two klipsch aw650s that are outside right now (will be coming inside this winter).  Can I use the amp with a 3rd party sub bonded to the 5s?  I think my wife will lose it if I hang up ANOTHER pair of speakers in our living room. Although I do like the 650 more than the 5s. 

I have most of all Sonos speaker and I use all of them with Airplay but suddenly My beam Gen 1 is not showing in the Airplay. I can connect from spotify but from Apple Music and Direct airplay it is not working. I tried to restart and reset but still It’s not in the list of Airplay. What is the possible problem and the solution as well.Thanks.
