Speakers

Hey, about 2 years ago i bought a Play 5 gen 2 with the thoughts that i would some day buy one more to pair them together. Now a bought a Sub gen 3, a playbar and a Sonos Five.Since sonos said the Play 5 and the Sonos Five were almost identical i thought it was obvious that they would pair and be usable together for a surround setup. I cant get them to pair, do i really need to buy another Sonos Five to finish my surround setup? I was so hyped by my purchase but this turned me off so much

I just adding a couple of Sonos 5s to my collection.  A couple of questions; Do the 5s have to be vertical to work in a stereo pair mode or can they also work horizontally? Pro's and cons for vertical/horizontal.Since I also have ARC, 2 ONE SLs & Gen 3 Sub I guess I also have the option to use the 5s as surround rears but I think in my room that might be a little too much.Appreciate your feedback, Regards, Ivan

Good Day,I have a large Sonos system with one sub already paired with a Play 5.  I do not have, nor want, any of the Sonos playbars as I have a nice wired surround sound system.  My question is, can I pair a second sub to another set of Sonos Fives in the same system?  So in other words, I am looking to get the deep bass on both sides of a large room.  I would be pairing the second sub with another set of speakers in the same overall house.  Any help would be very much appreciated.  Thank  you..

HiI’d like to connect a CD player to my Sonos ecosystem.  I have one Play 5, two Play 3, and two Play 1.  I already have a turntable plugged into the Play 5 as a line in.  I’ve seen other suggestions that I should rip all of my CDs as the solution, but I don’t want to do that.  I actually like the CD disc format and related cases with cover art.  Is there any way the Play 5 can share both the turntable and CD player with some sort of “line in splitter” or do I need something else for just the CD player - for example a Connect or something else?  I think I read Connect may be discontinued(?), but did it ever work for this purpose?Thanks.

I have had Sonos for a couple of years had issues with it off and on recently i added a beam and sub to my 2 play 1 in my living room and now I have nothing but problems.  Most of the time the beam won’t show up but when it finally does one of the other speakers or sub won’t show up. I have tried everything (reboot router remove all speakers and add them again etc.) to get it working, I bought a boost to see if that would help but it did nothing. What is wrong with these why don’t they work I am ready to go out and buy a different brand that works.

I added a second Sonos Five.  Want to pair it up with my other Five for use on my Turntable.  Is there a best way to orientate the speakers (vertically or horizontally) and do I Trueplay after pairing or before pairing?

Just purchased a Sonos Move. First day was able to power it up and connect to the WIFI system and it worked well. Now it appears that it will not power up and looks like it is not connected to the Sonos system.

Occasionally my Move will stop playing in the middle of a local playlist. The screen below pops up and suggests some things to try.Before following step 1, to unplug your router which will disrupt your entire network, just power your Move OFF and ON.That simple step works for me.  

Hi Just bought a sonos Move for an xmas present and although it worked once when removed from the box it has now stopped and will only show white light flashing constantly, i have tried the reset several times remove from base, press power button for around 30 seconds and it powers down, sit back on base and its back to flashing lightHave tried holding the link button when placed back on base and still the same flashing white light!it just reverts back to flashing light when placed back on base and wont link with anything.have turned off the wifi router and reset that, i have also moved the Move right net to the router still no change.tried leaving it for hours no change!advice please.RegardsMark

Hi - I have an iPhone 11 which I use to play iTunes on a Sonos Move via bluetooth - it keep dropping the songs & reconnecting - any idea why? I do not have this problem with my iphone 6S. 

Just bought a Sonos Move to replace a One, and one of the key uses is to be able to play music quietly at night. Unfortunately, the Move seems to bottom out at “quite loud". Even after disabling Loudness and setting both Bass and Treble EQ to -10, it's still far too loud. Adjusting the max volume just makes the first few volume increments silent - it still starts making noise at the same volume. Tested initially via the Sonos app, but the same issue is present playing across Bluetooth from Spotify on a phone The speaker sounds great when I want loud music, but I need it to play quietly at night! Can anyone help Thanks David

Our sonos move says it is playing something from spotify but nothing plays. It was fine yesterday at the start but stopped working properly when we asked to change artists. I tried resetting the speaker but that didn’t resolve the issue. I noticed others have had the same problem. Please help. 

Naive question; my apologies. But: if two Ones or Symfonisks were set-up as the rear speakers in a Sonos surround system, how would they function when playing simple stereo content? Would they automatically switch-over to being a stereo pair? (And thus play the stereo signal in tandem with my Beam sound bar)? Or do they effectively get switched-off when you’re not playing streams that have specific surround-sound content? (Or: is this a naive question, in the sense that most content has some bare minimum of a surround signal?).  Many thanks..

Having upgraded my system over the past 12 months, I am left with 3no ZP120 connect amps, 1no Zoneplayer S5, 1no Zoneplayer ZP90, 1no Play 3, a brand new unused Bridge, a CR200 controller and 2 pairs of speakers all of which are in good condition, complete with leads and instruction books etc which it seems wrong to condemn to landfillCan anyone confirm that if I sell these on ebay (or similar) a potential purchaser would be able to install and make them work? Or are they only of use to somebody who already has a Sonos system  

Hello!Play 1 about 5 years old never had issues until new broadband. Now after factory reset blinks orange, then solid orange then back to white. Uninstalled, reinstalled app etc as per other threads. Any ideas please?! thank you :-)

Thinking of updating to an arc and want to use my current playbar as part of my music system.Is this possibleRegards

Will the Move work with my Sonos system if I am on the Sonos 1 app      Since I purchased my speakers in 2017 I cannot use the Sonos 2 app

Play 5 gen version 1 or 2 ?

I’ve seen a few similar questions on here but no clear answers. How moisture resistant is the Sonos move? Can it be used in the bathroom while taking a hot shower without sustaining any damage? The fan in our bathroom is broken so there’s a lot of steam/condensation

When I use the Bluetooth connection for my MOVE it’s volume is half what it is with wiFi music.  I’ve tried turning the speaker up all the way over wiFi before I switch th Bluetooth and max out the volume on my MacBook as well.  I bought the move specifically for outdoor movies and I’m really disappointed with the lack of volume.   

Hi, can anyone tell why it isnt possible to run dual subs with a stereo pair of Fives when it is possible with the much inferior Beam?

Just connected my Sonos Arc and the sound is tinny. Sounds like voices are in a tin

Ive got a Sonos Beam connected to a Sony TV. I’ve now added 2 x Sonos One SL speakers. My Beam is added to the room name ‘living room’ & i’ve also added both of the One SL speakers to the same ‘room’. However i’ve now received an email from Sonos whch is suggesting that i should have added one of the One SL speakers to a different ‘room’ in order to stereo pair them?? If this is correct how can i disconnect one of the speakers to add it to a different room without removing all surrounds. Thanks

My understanding is that the Move individually is mono unless you buy 2 and create a stereo pair. By mono does it mean that both channels are combined into one speaker? In other words will a mono speaker contain all the musical information that a stereo pair would have (i.e. vocals, instrumentals, etc.) in one speaker. Sorry if this question is confusing. Also, I read that the Moves Bluetooth's version/format could be a problem with Android Devices but not IOS Devices. If this is true could someone please clarify this. Also, does trueplay work when the Move is in Bluetooth mode? Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Hello, I am very new to the Sonus system, having just bought my first Sonus products, a Sonus Arc and a pair of Sonus One SL as surrounds barely a week ago. The setup which I had expected to be straight forward and easy wasn’t so, as the surrounds weren’t connected at first and took me a few tries. And when I accidentally turn off one of the power switch to one of the surrounds, that Sonus One SL speaker was “lost” and not shown in the Sonus app after I turn it back on. It is like several minutes later before it appears.  So far, other than the initial hiccups, the system is working great, at least most of the time, although I experience sound cut-off when playing movies from AppleTV. But that will be for another topic.  I am thus wondering what exactly will happen if I turn off the power to all my Sonus device at the same time? And when I turn it back on, will the system finds itself and preserve it’s settings? Or I have to find to re-setup everything? And how long does the system tak
