Speakers

I set up alexa, it works. Next day it doesn't. It goes on and on.... Driving me mad. It just does no respond to the voice despite being set up in the app properly 

I sold my Sonos beam gen 1 and the new owner cannot activate it. I have performed a factory reset three times, but still not working.

I’m reaching out for some clarification on the recommended network setup for our Sonos system, as we’ve been experiencing some stability issues and want to make sure we’re configuring everything correctly. Our setup:• 15 speakers across 3 floors (~1,500 sqm)• Mix of Play:1 and Sonos One• UniFi network with RSTP enabled (we do not want to turn this off just because Sonos only works with STP) We’ve tested a few configurations and are seeing conflicting results: 1. All speakers wired (Wi-Fi disabled)• This caused STP loops on our switches• We’re unsure if Wi-Fi is truly disabled, or if speakers are still communicating via SonosNet in the background 2. One speaker wired, rest on Wi-Fi• This resulted in frequent dropouts• We currently do not run a 2.4GHz network, only 5GHz+ 3. All speakers on Wi-Fi (split system

I have had a Beam with Ones in a stereo pair working rock solid for a few years. I also have a Five and a Move 2 and have had no issues at all. I’ve just added 2x Era 100s and a Sub mini to my setup. The Era 100s are in a stereo pair with the sub in one room (my office)At least once a day, the stereo pair drops/breaks down, with music just coming from one Era 100. The only way i can get it back together is to power cycle the speakers. I use the Sonos app mainly to play music but occasionally use Airplay and my Connect+Turntable. I’ve not noticed any cause+effect with the chosen source and stereo pair drops.My office has the router located in it, so the wifi signal is full strength. I have no other issues with my network or speakers.Any ideas why this is happening and how i resolve it please?

My Ikea/Sonos Symfonisk keeps disappearing from my sonos app every day. Any Help?I have to manually unplug it and plug back on daily to sync with the rest of my Sonos system.  I have updated everything, reboot everything even re-connect and recalibrate the entire system via Ethernet cable and only works for 1 day, and the following day it all disappear all over again.Additionally it drops from the sync multiple times during the day, Any idea to remedy this issue? 

With the latest update I was pleasantly surprised that my stereo pairs had individual set for each speaker.  When I hit the volume bar a second set of bars appeared that provided the ability to set the each member of the pair. It’s now gone. What happened and how do I get this function back?  Thanks. 

I’ve moved. How do I reconnect my Sonos One? 

I have had Sonos in one form or another for 15 years and have four groups in my home and shed. There are 6 alarms set to tune to particular radio stations.  The instability of the alarms with recent updates is frustrating.  Sometimes it will start on two separate rooms that are set up as one connection, so they have different connections and one seconds behind synchronous broadcasting. None of the alarms is stable enough to run for the allocated time, they might only run a few seconds, or a few minutes. If I go to my IOS app the system already shows it has stopped and the right arrow is ready to press. I have also had to go through trying to trace why some stations are disconnected from the stream and I get the horrible ding dong alarm sound. I wish there was a better option for that too.  cheers John

I upgraded my Internet speed all five, but then they send me a new router.I haven't been able to install my beam 2.I tied reset reinstall the appWhen it chines it says it doesn't recognise it.There is NO sticker on the back/ base they're never was.Purchased 2-3 ago from reputable dealer..I swapped back to old router,TV etc all fine just beam won't install.I spent hours going crazy and getting frustrated..I still have the box etc but they're was no code that they tell you to put in if Chinese won't work. I was probably an idiot uninstall the app as settings are grey with only add new speaker or join system.I tried with the router it used to work with but no says can't find beam on that IP.Anybody thoughts thanks Richard.

My ERA 300 can't connect after the upgrade. I have tried rebooting the router, factory resetting the speakers, reinstalling the SONOS app, rebooting my mobile phone, turning off the mobile network on the phone, turning off private Wi-Fi addressing, etc.    Can someone assist with resolving the issue?

At the end of each song, the volume comes Very High before transitioning to the next song? What cause that issue?

How to lower down volume of 1 era speaker from stereo pair.

Pro-ject carbon turntable to am/fm tuner to 5? I’m trying to figure out this setup. i have two 5s, currently with a line in from the turntable. I’m worried adding a tuner into the mix will bring issues with turntable audio quality without an amplifier. I purchased an ADCOM GTP 400, and it needs an antenna to work getting local broadcast l, but when I tried to play a record, it sounded awful.I want to stream local baseball games from time to time, so I want to keep the budget reasonable, but absolutely open to investing in quality equipment and can return the Adcom if I need something different. Any advice from the community?

My Sonos beam 2nd gen. DOES NOT pair with my samsung android phone!

Is anyone having problems with the BBC Sounds and Sonos One SL speakers just keep stop playing. I have two older Sonos Play 1 and they are fine. I have had to reset the One SL speakers twice this week to even be able to see them on the App. But still won't keep playing. 

Tengo un Sub Mini conectado a una Era 300, pero constantemente el Sub Mini se desconecta por al rededor de 20 segundos y posteriormente se vuelve a conectar. Eso sucede al rededor de cada 2 minutos. ¿A alguien le ha pasado lo mismo? En caso afirmativo, ¿Cómo lo pudieron resolver?  Saludos. 

My cafe relies on Google Calendar alerts for its daily tasks. How can I make the alarms sound off on my speakers?

I have an existing Sonos system with a play base and play:1s as rears in the living room and several play:1s throughout the house in different rooms.I am considering upgrading to the arc ultra, era300 rears and a sub 4 for the living room.Are there any issues using “one” sonos app to control the new arc ultra, era300 & sub 4 with the old play:1 speakers throughout the house? I understand they will work separately for movies, but will music work in all speakers for the entire house with one app?

Hi All,Overall, I can’t complain. Physical hardware construction and delivery of sound is amazing. When it Works….! When it doesn’t, for whatever reason… cause considerable grief…. Upgrades another story… ! To put the cards on the table, I chose Apple,…. once hooked they reel you in… I chose Sonos,… and have spent more then AUD $100K on Sonos…. No issue.. when it works…  But when it doesn’t, well let me tell you… I’d put it all in a cardboard box and send it back…Kind regards, Matthew.

I have 2 speakers, one in the office, the other in the family room. The office speaker Works just fine, the family speaker is not detectable.  I did the rest by unplugging from electrical but its still not detectable.  Its plugged directly into the router.

Why won’t my Play:1 and Play:3 connect after a short power cut? I have factory reset both products and also reset the S2 app…all to no avail. I cannot reconnect the Play speakers and this has been over a week now, but somehow my Beam seems miraculously immune to any issues whatsoever and has remained constantly connected! You couldn’t make it up. Why is Sonos so clunky and difficult to use? Has anyone had a similar issue or maybe help with any advice? 

I can't connect any Sonos gen 1 products to my new sky 5g hub … even though it says it's split into 5g and 2.4g
