Speakers

This isn't something that's not already known, but I just wanted to share how all the problems I had with my Beam (plus two era 100 surrounds) very regularly disconnecting from wifi (BT router) went away when I set a static IP for the Beam on the router. It really wasn't difficult to do (once you access your router's admin page) and has been transformational in resolving this issue. If you're having this problem, I really recommend 'fixing' your Beam's IP as static not dynamic (DHCP). It has also resolved an issue with the Sonos app losing access to Amazon music - I think the Beam dropping messed up the app too.(Note: As well as the Beam,  I have 2x ERA 300s in another room and the 2x ERA 100 surrounds (on the Beam), but I didn't fix the IP address for any of these - I think the Beam needed it because it was on the busier 2.4 Ghz channel on the router and my other Sonos speakers connect to 5 Ghz.)

I am about to connect my ERA300 via the uSBc input to a record player phono out. Does this mean I cannot also stream music to it from other devices without a full reset?

Hey everyone!I just got my first Sonos speaker and I'm super excited to dive in. For those who've been using Sonos for a while, do you have any tips for getting the best sound setup? Any favorite features or playlists you recommend?Thanks a bunch!

Hi, I have a 4 pieces play 5 gen 1 ( with 2 in stereo, line in on left play 5) livingroom, kitchen 1x play 5, garden 1x play 5.1 x play 3 bathroom, 1x play 3 workingroom. The sound from Turntable on the stereo 5’s in livingroom is ok , but I on All the other devices sound is poor, no sounddepth . would a Sonos Connect( or AMP even with no external speakers attached)  as line in for Turntable be a improvement on sound quality on my devices in the other rooms?

Hi, is there a way to connect a sonos one to a samsung videoprojector via a LAN cable or HDMI adaptator? or bluetooth but i don’t see bluetooth on the sonos one…thanks for your feedback

I see huge amount of posts about Sonos 2 Gen 2 wifi breaking irrecoverably. Support looked at diagnostics and verified just wifi is broken on mine (for no reason). Is anybody considering legal action against Sonos for this as it is so widespread? 

Trying to set up my play one, but it won’t recognize it. I have done everything. When I click on the reboot, it doesn’t provide a link. Any answers?

I use a Sanos Era100 for my PC sound. When switching screen or even low sound results in the speaker switching off/standby mode type. Is there away to just have it on as normal all the time? Thanks,.

Good afternoon. I have a Sonos Move that just stopped working. Has this happened to anyone? Sonos tells me that it is out of warranty, but it is incredible that such an expensive device stops working when the warranty ends.

Hello, After spending a lot of money on SONOS, among other things, for its advertising of ease of use and versatility... looking for a solution for my need, I found the unpleasant surprise that there is no possible solution: you cannot "easily switch" your pair of Sonos ERA 300 to use them in a home cinema system and in another stereo. How can this be possible in 2025? Does SONOS plan to meet this demand at some point or is it not even considering it? Thanks 

Hello my sonos sub gen 3 is rattling like something is loose Can anybody help please

Hi I have a play 5 gen2 that is dead ”no light, no sound, nothing”When I disassemled the speaker and took out the powerboard pcb it has 3 big resistors that was BURNED ”R2483, R2482, R2496” And futher inspection I saw other components that was burned ”R12”, R106, R108, D3, U2, Mosfet transistor So I started to investigate what these components does and what values it has, I searched in this forum, groups on facebook and other forums but only found the value of ”R2483, R2482, R2496,R108” And the mosfet transistor got text on it so I could identify it The rest of components I took help of chatGPT to find values of, arter HOURS of talk with it and many datasheets  -R2483, R2482, R2496 is 0,3 OHM | 0,5W | 1206 Format | Current sensing resistor-Mosfet is a 65E6600 (Main switching mosfet)-U2 is a NCP1937B1G | A controller IC to controll the gate of the mosfet with PWM trought pin 14-R12 is calculated to 0,36 OHM | Current sensing resistor | 0,125W | 0402 Format-R106 is calculated to be betwe

Hi, I have a beam, ones and sub for the lounge - I understand the surround setup and how sonos works pretty well. But I also have a Move that I was planning to put in our new open plan kitchen to connect to the TV in there for listening to the TV and music.Can I just check with someone; if I connect a new beam to the dining room tv via HDMI, I can group the sound coming from the TV to the move in the kitchen (beam and move playing the same sound)? In addition to that I know (99% sure) I can also send the lounge 5.1 sound to the kitchen should I wish. Thanks in advance.

I’ve noticed that when my Sonos Roam is connected via Bluetooth on iOS/iPadOS, the Sonos app doesn’t display any battery information. It works fine when connected over Wi-Fi, and I can see the battery percentage there, but nothing shows up in the app when using Bluetooth.Is this a known issue, or is there something I need to configure differently? Has anyone else experienced this on iOS or iPadOS? Any tips or workarounds would be great!

I have a Play 5 Gen 1 speaker for my garden. I have to play it through the S1 App on my Android phone on a separate network. I also have a Play 1 and Arc using my S2 App on an iPad. The Play 5 worked well for most of 2024, but started suggesting I update before Christmas. I have set it to not receive updates as instructed by Sonos. It will now not let me connect to my music services unless I update. Why am I receiving suggestions to update?Has it suddenly become compatible with S2.How do Zi break out of this mess - other than the obvious. Thanks

Hi all! Hope to get some guidance.In essence, I've inherited one Sonos Play 1 speaker and two Play 3. I'd like to connect them to work as speakers for my TVs, which is one Philips from 2019 and a Samsung the Frame from 2023.Is it possible to connect the speakers directly to the TVs? As I've tried to read up on this, it seems like I need a soundbar to go with the speakers, but I'm not sure.. From what I understand as well, the Frame does not have the right "line out" which is needed to connect via cable.All advice here is highly appriciated!

I like the overall sound quality from my Sonos One and Sonos Move speakers. However, the volume levels change dramatically from song to song. I use Alexa voice service and Apple Music streaming. Why hasn’t Sonos implemented volume leveling???

Hi my wife has just bought me 2 Sonos ones and a Sonos move 2 please could you tell me how to connect them to my Samsung sound bar and bass box I’m getting conflicting info some say connect yet can’t find and some say bridge and some say don’t ever use bridge.any help would be gratefully appreciated 

Hallo, Ik kan mijn 2 Symfonisk speakers ( gen 2) niet als stereopaar installeren in de app. Alles lijkt goed te gaan maar als op het eind het mooie stereo geluidje klinkt ten teken dat het klaar is, hoor ik maar uit 1 speaker dat geluid.Als ik het met de andere speaker doe hoor ik alleen de andere speaker. Heb alles al losgekoppeld maar dat hielp ook niet. Ik lees niemand anders die dit probleem heeft, vandaar deze hulp vraag.Ter info, ik heb ook nog een beam soundbar (gen 2 ) maar die staat los van dit probleem. De losse symfonisk speakers worden wel herkend in de app en zijn geupdate.Moderator edit:Google Translate-Hello,I can't install my 2 Symfonisk speakers (gen 2) as a stereo pair in the app. Everything seems to be going well, but when the nice stereo sound sounds at the end to indicate that it is finished, I only hear that sound from 1 speaker.When I do it with the other speaker, I only hear the other speaker. I have already disconnected everything, but that didn't help either.I

Hi,I have a sonos move in my office and when I connect it to my MacBook pro it plays beautifully. The problem is if I have to pause to take a call or have a conversation - even like 2-3 minutes, the move disconnects and then I have to switch back to MacBook pro speakers and then again to the move. It’s a pain the tukus - is there anyway to set it so that it’s always the speaker and it never disconnects?

HiQuestion for you all.  I now have in my arsenal two pairs of era 300 downstairs in my house and an older play 1 in the kitchen.  If I play an atmos track/album on the two pair fine, not a problem, if I then add in the kitchen speaker it knocks down the playback on all the speakers to ultra HD.  If I take off the kitchen speaker the playback goes back up to atmos.  This is the question: If I upgrade the kitchen speaker to an ERA 100 will it still downgrade the playback on all the other atmos capable speakers or not? Thanks in advance for any help

Hey,Could anybody tell me how to Group my Sonos roam to my other audio system speakers? My Sonos Roam is the only sonos devices  i have the other devices are all connected true Google. Thank youKarlijn

If I connect a source device, such as a CD player, to an Era speaker will the music play only through that particular Era speaker or can it be routed to also play through my other Eras and/or beam?
