I'm purchasing an Audio-Technica AT-LP120-USB turntable (with built in pre-amp). I have two Play 1's and a Play 3 -- and I want to be able to play to those speakers only (or any additional Sonos speakers I buy in the future) via the audio out on the turntable. I do NOT have any other audio equipment, such as an amp/receiver or other speakers. Is my assumption correct that I only need the Connect to play under these conditions -- or is the ConnectAMP needed? Additionally, could I equally get a Play 5 (in place of one of the Connect productts) and connect the turntable directly to the Play 5 and still connect with the other speakers? Thanks in advance.
The Sonos Beam doesn't just receive HDMI signals, but sends them out too. This is evident by the fact if you select your source to the HDMI ARC connection the Beam is using, you get pre-designed patterns being sent as video to your TV. What if Sonos could update the speaker to display music covers, music videos, music details like; time, title, artist etc.? Short and sweet, but I think that would be awesome.
Only getting sound out of one speaker. I can connect to either speaker(while stereo pairing) but can't get both to work at same time. The system had been working well with Wi-Fi pandora and CD player inputs! Any thoughts?
im off to Ibiza & would like to use my Sonos 1. The villa im renting has wi-fi throughout so am i right in thinking that i only need a different plug & everything will work as normal? Im not particularly tech-savvy so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

So currently I have play 5s and just gotthe soundbar as well. looking to pick up a sub and another play 5 what are the watts of these speakers? looking for watts and Ohms for Sub and play 5's I ask customer support and am told public does not receive this kind of info...---well we better Im dropping serious coin. i just want to know
Ayer encendi mi sistema Sonos (Playbar, Play1, Play5, Sub) y note que el Sub no encendia, lo deconecte y lo volvi a conectar nuevamente y nada que encendia, me lo lleve a otro cuarto y lo conecte a otro toma corriente y el resultado fue negativo. Entonces tome la decision y busque en la Web la pagina de Sonos y le escribi, me respondieron en el dia de hoy lunes. Me dijeron que hiciera lo siguiente: "Por favor intente conectar este Sub a otro toma corriente y si puede usando otro cable de corriente. Si no logra que se encienda la luz LED, adjunte dos fotos del producto. Una foto del producto cableado a la corriente y otro del numero de serie en la etiqueta". El paso de conectarlo con otro cable de alimentacion lo hice hoy y tambien fue en vano, no encendio. Se supone que la marca Sonos tiene una calidad excelente como lo tengo en mente. Quisiera que se solucionara mi problema. Atentamente, Jose L. Chong Koon Panama, Ciudad de Panama
Hi I'm adding outdoor speakers to my sonos system. Have the connect Amp and have been researching outdoor speakers to buy for my house. Does anyone recommend any particular speakers? I see Polk is pretty good but most outdoor speakers don't get good reviews on bass. I'm not looking for booming but I don't want all high end either. Bose looks good but is that worth the money?
I just bought a Sonos one to replace on in my lounge which is hooked up to surround sound. Why can’t I Pair it. It seems ridiculous to buy another Sonos one. Am I missing something here ?
After many years with Sonos products, I think I've just about had it. I recently moved 3 speakers to my GF's house for a party, and spent the more than an hour setting up, including new a Sonos account, and driving home to get a patch cable… Back home afterwards, I've now set up one speaker but I can't really get back to my old account - Now it only wants to use 'The one used to set up the system'. I'm really sick & tired of all the hassle and lack of user-friendliness. It is pretty extreme.. There must be other companies that deserve my hard earned cash more. Anyone know the market well enough to suggest alternatives? -Me
I am a novice user - in fact I must shamefacedly admit I had never even heard of Sonos till I went shopping for a system to allow me to wirelessly listen to music from my analogue hi-fi system in other rooms. On the advice of the salesperson I ended up with a Connect and two Ones. I have set up the Ones (Standard setup) on my home wi-fi. But I can't find any documentation about the most basic controls on the One. Nothing in the documentation that came in the box, nothing on the Android app, nothing on the Support page of the website (which is where one usually finds product manuals). Is there any? My first few questions (I fear there will be more) are * What are the touch controls on top of the One? I guess the one in the middle is a play/pause button, but what are the ones with four dots? * What is the big button on the back for? When I push it the green LED on top turns red and starts to flash for a while, but so what? * Is there a list of colours and patterns for the LED o
Hi Guys, So I am moving house this week and super excited about setting up my system. I have already been using my 5.1 setup with the Playbar, 2 Play:1 surrounds and Sub. I have gone ahead and purchased 4 more Play:1s that im going to setup in the open plan kitchen/living room. I debated having two Play:5s but went for the 1s after many spatial and financial considerations. When i have friends around im going to bring the sub down temporarily from my cinema setup. My question is, would you setup the 4 Play:1s as 2 stereo pairs or 4 mono units, given that i want to use the sub? From what I have read on here the stereo separation sounds awesome but i can only link the sub to 1 pair with the other pair not benefitting from the high pass filter kicking in when the sub is added. I guess i will play around when i move house but just looking to see if anyone has this kind of setup currently. Thanks
Brought home two Homepods yesterday and set them up as a stereo pair in a 14 x 14 bedroom. A/B tested them against a single Play 5 in the same room using Airplay and my own library of music. There was NO contest. I like to listen to music at high volumes and even at max volume, two Homepods could not "control" the space. As a longtime Apple customer I was pretty disappointed. The reviews concerning the music quality from the Homepods have been almost unanimously positive. I found them to be nothing special. In fact, the two Homepods went right back to the store this morning and were exchanged for another Play 5. The Play 5s easily control the space and give me what I wanted all along, a full sounding, emotionally involving musical performance. Having had the Homepods for an audition with my own music in my own home I have to say that they are very much a triumph of marketing over engineering.
I have Google WiFi in my house and most of my Sonos devices are working fine. I have Sonos Ones, Playbar, Play 5 (gen 2) and a sub. However my Play 3 won’t connect either via Ethernet or WiFi. I’ve submitted diagnostics 341754710. Could someone take a look? Thanks!
Hi - Play 5 worked flawlessly and recently stopped being visible on system. I had to unmount from ceiling and finally performing diagnostics and on trying to reconnect wireless, the system flashes orange after pushing the "connect" button. I've seen others with the same problem and seems to indicate a wireless failure?:(
I have a Sonos playbar and an iPhone 6S. While playing music with the Sonos app, the song will randomly stop during playback and switch to a new song. Frustrating when I am into a song and it stops all of the sudden. Any idea why this happens?
Over the last few months we have been having drops in stream and skipping on songs every time we listen. We mostly listen to Pandora and Spotify. Submitted Diagnostic 569733989 Speed test shows: Download=87.80 Mbps Upload=91.61 Mbps Please help. db
Hello, I can’t airplay to a set of stereo paired Play5’s. The speakers don’t show in the device’s options on the iOS now playing widget. The pair isn’t discoverable in the Home app either. (Removed during my troubleshooting and am now unable to add the stereo pair.) When I unpair the speakers, I am able to both airplay to speaker and add the speaker to the Home app. Adding the gen1 Play5 as a stereo pair to my gen2, breaks airplay and integration with Home app. Steps reproduce: 1. Airplay to stereo pair of Play5’s. Fails, no such device listed in airplay device list within the iOS widget. (Playing music to the stereo pair works as expected via the Sonos app.) 2. Unpausing the stereo pair from the Home app fails. Grayed and unresponsive. 3. Separate the stereo pair within the Sonos app. 4. Airplay via iOS works on the gen2 speaker. 5. Add the gen2 speaker to the Home app successfully. I lost the ability to airplay to the set of speakers two weeks ago and would an a

I have a Sonos Play One and I want to buy a Sonos One to pair them but I don’t know if they can be paired.

Connection Peloton to Play5
my speakers have been playing fine but then 1 stopped playing. The light on top is still white and I can use the controls (pause, play, volume) but no music. I tried unpairing and resetting them up and everything worked again for a few days and now the same speaker is not playing music again. The controls work but not sound.
Would you please create a portable travel speaker (like the cool new Bose Soundlink Mini or Jambox or Beats Pill) with Bluetooth and also links with your WiFi setup at home? I only use a travel speaker 3 times a year, so it would be great if I could also use it in my Sonos setup at home.
Hi, I'm the proud owner of a Sonos Playbar. I've just completed the setup and all is working well. The only step I can't complete is disabling the volume display from the TV when I hit volume up / down. I can't find Hisense in the list of remotes on the KB article. Is there somewhere I can get the info I need to disable the volume display?
