Speakers

Hi. I have an Arc set up with Sub, 1SL as surround with Sky Q and recently purchased a new Philips Atmos TV. I'm fairly OK I've set it all up correctly. When I select the DD+ set up in audio sections of Sky and the TV menu the main sound via the Arc is weak/tinny/faint. For example the app shows 5.1 and the surround sound is immense but the spoken portions of films or general audio via the Arc is quieter, especially with sports, compared to the surround sound/music/effects which are so loud. It's imbalanced. When I switch all the DD+ off and the apps shows Stero PCM the Arc is more powerful/meatier but the surround is slightly less immense but still is an awesome sound. Any tips???   

I’m in the process of filling my whole house with Sonos speakers (aren’t we all?). I’m not getting into the super fancy ceiling speakers or anything so for music my choices are pretty limited, One or Five. I really like to have a wide sound field so for each room I have to decide either a pair of Ones or a pair of Fives, essentially $360 or $1000 per room. I suspect that given this huge increase in price none of my rooms will end up with Fives and I’m going to have a whole bunch of One SLs everywhere. I love the Ones but always wonder how much better each room would sound with Fives. Sure would be nice if there was some middle option for like $300-350 per speaker so I could put something just a little better in some rooms.

Hello Sonos family,Today I've bought Sonos Five speaker and right after unboxing I saw two strange things at the front. You can see it here:https://imgur.com/a/LNAFwQXIs it normal look of these speakers? Should I do something to make it disappear?

I just bought a sonos speaker (symfonisk) and i want to play spotify on it. i added spotify using the app, logged in to spotify and permitted access.  Now i can open spotify in the sonos app i see all my playlists. On the spotify webpage is see my sonos account added to the accepted connections so all should be fine.When i start a spotify song from within the sonos app its giving me a loading circle for 15 seconds and it tells me that the song cant be played and that spotify is disconnected.The speaker has perfect connection and all other streaming services and radio work perfect. For some reason the authorization between sonos and spotify goes wrong on the speaker or in the app. I tried restarting my router and did a full reset on the speaker without any luck. Before people start giving me advice to update the speaker…. i allready did it today and checked again but there is no newer version. im on 13.0 build 1.20.3.3-2.0I always thought sonos was a good manufacturer. Guess i was i wro

So I fully charged my Move when I received it, used it for about 20 minutes and a week later tried to use it at a new location. When I tried to connect it, the lights on it were all dead. I know I can just charge it but do I have a lemon?Or when you move to a new location is this normal? Thanks!

Is it me or is the Move battery life ridiculously bad ?I have owned many portables (Harmon Kardon, JBL, Jawbone). They all make the battery life on my new Move a joke. How can a premium product so bad ? 

I have a long room in which I have two Play:1s set up as a stereo pair.  I’d like to put another Play 1 in the room so that there is a L-R-L setup, with the R in the middle of the room.  That way I have stereo sound on the left side of the room, and stereo sound on the right as well (albeit reversed).   Is there a way to add a Play:1 as a left-only speaker?  Whenever I set it up, it is only available as mono.  

Hello - I’ve got Sonos gear set up in two houses. How would the Roam handle that? Can I seamlessly connect the Roam to my Sonos networks in both houses as I travel between them?Thanks

Hi, I am interested in purchasing a Sonos Move to have as a second Bluetooth speaker in my home. I already own an Anker Soundcore 2. What I am wondering is, will I be able to play an audiobook for my son (from my phone) on the Anker bluetooth speaker while simultaneously playing music for myself in the next room on the Sonos Move (also from my phone)? Thanks!

As per the title. When away from WiFi and in Bluetooth mode, can you still use the Sonos app to control/play music to a Roam for access to Sonos playlists, favourites etc?

Should I leave my Sonos Move on the charging ring permanently, or will this damage the battery?

I have installed a tp-link deco S4 mesh network  and have now lost connection to my three Sonos speakers. I’ve connected one of the speakers via Ethernet to the main S4 unit which is connected to the router. getting a wee bit vexed/stressed. Wifi is excellent throughout house now and was hoping for a simple reconnect for the Sonos speakers. Are there any not too techie ways of resolving this? I’ve seen a couple of threads which make some quantum leaps in assumed capabilities of the reader..

Got the full Sonos home theater (Arc, Sub, One’s) but...have a potential problem with the Sub.  I have two VERY inquisitive and playful cats...who are starting to play in the Sub’s hole--I’m scared they are going to put a hole in or rip the speakers.  Are there any kind of grill coverings I can get for the sub, or other ideas, to keep their paws out of the insides?Thanks

I have a Sonos Beam in my bedroom and for some reason it won't show on my Android device (despite signing out and rebooting the app) however on my IOS device i can see the beam and set it playing. It still isn't visible whilst playing on my android controller.

Hello everyone,for the past few months I’ve been successfully using my Symfonisk Lamp as an Airplay speaker. But this month the Symfonisk just disappeared from airplay and I can’t seem to get it back in there. I’ve both restarted and resetted the device and the router but nothing seems to work. I can play music via Spotify connect and can play audiobooks via the audible connector in the Sonos app but airplay is essentially gone. I also cannot add the speaker to my HomeKit as it can’t be found there as well.I have also tried connecting it via Lan Cable but that doesn’t solve the issue.What can I do to make it work again? I’m using an IPhone 12 and IPad Pro.

I have DALI Rubicon 2C wireless speakers. I bought a PORT so I could add them to my existing Sonos system. The connection to the speakers is intermittent - typically it drops after a couple of minutes.Are these speakers incompatable (they work fine with everything else!) Thanks

Recently purchased a Sonos Move as “fill” for outdoors to supplement the patio speakers.Over time (30 min plus) I notice that the Sonos gets out of sync (behind).  The longer the more behind.Other wireless speakers (apple AX attached to a McIntosh amp and my Denon AVR) don’t fall behind.Suggestions?Thanks 

Hi anyone help me understand why my so is play 3 would show my ex as a host , and I’m sure it was used to listen in to my hone ,  

I purchased two Moves with the intent of creating a stereo pair of portable speakers. Fine on WiFi. Bluetooth is a whole different story. I should have paid closer attention to the specifications - specifically the FAQ. The whole point of getting two Moves was to take my music outside and on the road where there is no WiFi. I am very disappointed in Sonos at the moment. There is an old guideline in product design/development: if you can’t do something fully and completely to what the average customer will expect, don’t do it until you can.To the Sonos engineers and product management folks: engineering a pair of speakers to work as a stereo pair over bluetooth is very possible and has been accomplished many times. I have a pair of very high quality JBL Flip4s which work nicely in stereo mode while connected to my phone in Bluetooth mode. They do this by pairing the streaming device to one of the speakers and then connecting the two speakers to each other so that the one drives the othe

Hi. I have a playbase and 2x Sonos Ones (surrounds) connected to my TV and I am very happy. I am keen on exploring vinyl and I am looking at a Lenco L-85 which is quite cheap at £115 which also contains a pre amp. What I am wondering is can I use my Sonos Ones as a stereo pair using a Sonos connect without disconnecting from my tv setup. 

 Hello,I have 2 Sonos Five connected in stereo pair in horizontal position.I have a doubt, If I only turn on one of them, that Sonos Five detects it and works as “fulll stereo” like it isn’t in stereo pair configured?Or continue to work as left or right channel as is configured in the app? Thanks!

Has anyone experimented with making Play 5’s into pendant speakers? Trying to engineer a way to mount them as ceiling pendants in a open truss ceiling. I want to hang them from stainless cables about 5 foot long in a restaurant dining room that has about 16’ ceiling height.

I have 2 Sonos SL1’s that are paired together + a Sonos 5 (2nd gen). For whatever reason the Sonos SL1’s always stay paired to each other but they refuse to stay grouped to the Sonos 5.  I have to go into the app and add the SL1s to the already playing music on the Sonos 5. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

S27 has shown up on the FCC web site, with all the good stuff redacted as usual.There is a master and a slave device (I thought we were done with that nomenclature?) that takes a 5V 3A input, and is circular. My guess is WiFi-capable headphones, with a smart base station that acts like any other Sonos device.Details at https://fccid.io/SBVRM027 

Hello. I picked up 2 sonos play3. I know they been discontinued.
