Pairing a Play:1 with the new Sonos One

I am waiting for sonos one to pair with play one. At the moment I have split the two sonos ones in different rooms and grouped with a play one. As far as I can hear there is no difference in sound quality. It would be great to hear them as a stero setup. I would have thought it was only a matter of writing some update software to download. Can’t understand why it’s taking so long. If they group easily, they should pair easily. Maybe it’s a problem with the addition of Alexa. She would reply then on two speakers rather than just the Sonos one. Come on Sonos, give your customers what they want. It looks as if you’re missing a marketing opportunity here for new and existing customers.

This is a dead horse. Sonos says they are different and won’t allow to pair in the app. If you disagree with Sonos then download sonosequencr and force pair them. Thats the end of the story.

Hi, Thanks for your advice. Is there anywhere a possible printout of 'How to Do' instructions? Once this is done, can the speakers be reverted back to the original factory default, should I wish to reconfigure the house setups or add to the network in the future?

There is nothing stopping you from unpairing them or reseting later.

Open sonosequencr

Hit plus button on top right

Give macro a name and pick both options to show macro

Hit the plus button to right of the show widget selection

Pick create stereo pair from list (hit title not ?)

In the top section pick the left speaker (this should be the Sonos One). In the bottom section pick the right speaker. Hit the apply button.


Hit save and return to macro list. Hit save again return to main screen.

You will see your pairing macro. Click on it to run.

Done

Just done what you have helped me with and I'm really pleased with the result. Thank you so much. This app I guess will make the author very rich. Can't understand why Sonos have ignored this opportunity. Anyhow thanks again.

Another disgruntled customer I bought a play bar and a play one and go given a one. I was hoping To do a 5:0 setup with to at the back and playbar at the front.

I have the aequencer app which is great but I can’t understand how to add the playbar to the mix. The stereo sound is great.

Set up and tested the 5.1 system with PlayBar + Sub + Play:1 + One, and it works perfectly!

How did you do it I can’t see the function to do it.

It is a seperate option in sonosequencr

I just bought Sonos One to add sound to my Sonos 1/understood these paired/advertising less than clear that speakers only paired if identical models and not Sonos/frustrated entire reason for buying Sonos One-two microphone speakers same room redundant

Why are you frustrated just pair them with sonosequencr and do as you want.
