Speakers

I have a suggestion for great balanced sound when listening to music and it would be helpful when listening to TV as well. I normally sit on a sofa along the back wall facing the Arc Ultra on the front wall, with two Era 300’s just behind the sofa along the left and right walls, and two subwoofers behind each sofa arranged in an L pattern. I prefer to sit on either end of the sofa with the armrest which is closest to one of the surround speakers.The surround audio tv and music levels are set to -15 to try to get sound away from the surrounds and towards the Arc. All I cannot hear is music from either the left or right Era 300, which overpowers the Arc Ultra. I hear nothing from the Arc Ultra unless I get up and walk towards the front of the room. The solution would be to put a graphic joystick in the Sonos app, which would allow you to balance the sound anywhere in the room relative to where you are sitting. If you

Hi everyone,I’m experiencing an annoying rattling noise with my Sonos Sub Gen 2. The issue happens mostly during movies, especially in low frequency scenes with deep bass. It is less noticeable with music, but still present at times.What I’ve already tried: Factory reset Trueplay tuning multiple times Moving the Sub to different locations in the room Switching connection from WiFi to Ethernet (currently wired) The rattling still occurs regardless of placement or connection method.Has anyone experienced something similar with a Gen 2? Did it turn out to be a hardware issue or was there a specific fix?

Play5 gen1 will not connect to wifi.All fixes attempted.Plays without issue when connected to router by ethernet cable .Cuts out when connected to wifi extender by ethernet cable.

I’ve been facing issues contacting my Sonos devices and getting them stay on my Wi-Fi network, tried factory reset, app refresh , changing ownership too ( to a separate account) . The app connects and drops as it pleases. The issue may be with my router config. I travel frequently and carry my speakers , so the networks change . Presently in Japan, using a tp link 841 router , all my other devices work just fine it’s just Sonos that’s such a pain🤬

Hi, I have a Sonos Beam soundbar right now and want to buy Sonos speakers for the rest of my apartment. I plan to therefore buy two Sonos Era 100 speakers. But will I be able to sync the sound with these speakers with the Sonos beam?

I bought my Play:3 in early 2015. It was a good experience for a while, but that began to change years ago, as it did for many users, and I’m now on the verge of tossing the device in e-waste.Some mornings, when I try to connect, my Play:3 functions properly. Most mornings, it doesn't. I wish I could say I enjoy the surprise.When I try to connect, the connection error says: "Not Connected. No products found on [name of my network]." Sonos support typically says it's a network problem -- it isn't. When I can't connect, I run speedtest and it's always fine. No other device on my network is erratic.The next step is to click System settings. The following page repeats the Not Connected message. "Your system not found on [network]. Make sure your device is connected to the same network that Sonos is connected to." (It is.) "If you have made any changes to your router, update the network settings on your product." And there's an Update Network button.Clicking t

I’ve read some of the threads on here about Airplay 1 support being broken with a firmware, which, if I’m reading correctly, have been resolve? I’m not sure if my issue is related but I’ll try to describe it as best I can.I have an Era 100 that I purchased several years back, and which I use pretty exclusively by Airplaying from Lyrion Music Server with the Airplay Bridge plugin (which uses ROAP protocol). I just purchased a second Era 100, and opened up my Sonos app for the first time in years so that I could set it up. While I was at it I updated the software on my older Era 100, and now both speakers are running version 93.1-74010. This was the first time I updated the software on the older speaker since I bought it, and maybe that’s why I never ran into the issue where an update broke Airplay 1 support for over a year or so.But now I find that the older speaker works with Airplay 1 just fine, but the newer one does not. Both speakers can be used

I have an arc ultra, sub four and two era 300s that comprise my home theater surround system. As near as I can tell I should not need to add anything else, but I am wondering if I can.The other thing I’m wondering about is can I take two era 100s Into an adjacent room for the purposes of listening to music or will that conflict with my surrounding system since the second room is very close to my surround system?

The volume slider in Sonos app constantly resets to a very low volume, appropriately 15%. The app is up to date and I have unplugged and plugged in an attempt to reboot system. Nothing system seems to affect this and it makes the entire system useless. Anyone else experiencing this? Any tips or suggestions? Thanks for anything you got. 

I bought 4 era 100 and a gen 4 sub for a TV entertainment room thinking I could connect everything via Bluetooth and make a mock surround sound. However, you can only group 2 era 100s + a sub, so i have to make 2 sets. Bluetooth will only connect to 1 set at a time. I have successfully added the 2nd group after connecting to Bluetooth on my TV, but it rarely works. Looking for any advice to make this work preferably with the least path of resistance and cost. Thanks in advance. 

I am noticing that the volume on my Sonos speaker sometimes changes on its own while music or TV audio is playing. There is no one else controlling it from the app, and I am not using voice assistants at the time.This happens randomly and can go either louder or quieter. I am using the Sonos app on my phone and the speaker is connected to my home Wi-Fi network.Has anyone experienced this before? Could this be related to TV remote signals, HDMI-ARC, or another app connected to Sonos?

I am repeating a topic as posted below and in many other threads. It seems that Sonos have not fixed it. All software updates have been done on my side and yet it still does not work. Is there any danger that Sonos might actually care about their customers?  I found this “closed” topic about Sonos group doesn't work for Airplay.Dgroups no longer working when playing over AirPlaySonos acknowledged that it is a reproducible problem. Yet eight months later, I am still experiencing the

 I read a lot in this community about factory resets.  Mostly negative responses to those who factory reset to attempt to resolve an issue.  I totally agree.  My plan is to purchase a friend’s ERA 300.  Is there a procedure that does not require a factory reset to get the 300 to join my system?

I have a new ERA 300.  It doesn’t pair with an older Move.   Does the new Play(?)100 pair with the 300? 

if I’m playing my 2 x era 100s and era 300 and try to add my playbar (with sub and surrounds) it shows as connected but no sound. I’ve reset everything more than once and it keeps happening. S2 app.also, the app takes ages (several minutes) to find all devices.

Hi All, I have a Sonos play bar, sub,  2 play 5 second gen for surrounds stereo setup for my entertainment area. In the last month one of the 2 play 5s (out of warranty sadly) stopped connecting to the system. When I plug it into Ethernet it works but unfortunately that is not an option for my space.I sent customer service a diagnostic and was told it’s a failed WiFi card. They basically said I was SoL and my options are to get a 30 percent discount on one new 5 and buy an additional new 5 because that’s the only way I could have two surrounds. Kind of a hard answer to hear if I have two very expensive play 5 speakers, one of which works fine and the other of which only the WiFi is malfunctioning (apparently a problem that has been experienced by quite a few play 5 second gen owners).Does anyone have other ideas of solutions? Has anyone ever effectively replaced the WiFi card on one of these? Does anyone know a good source of refurbished play 5 gen

I have just moved into our new house and I cannot connect any of our speakers to the new modem

I am setting up a new living room theater setup. TV is TCL 98 inch QM7K with a ARc Ultra soundbar, a 4th gen sub and 2 Era 300 speakers.  TV is 15 feet from back wall.  Problem is it is a L shaped couch that is 144 inches back and 114 inch other side with no space behind couch for the 2 Era 300 speakers.  AI suggested I put them on the left arm and right arm of the couch and the right one was suggested I have it face the TV like the one on the left?  Also need to decide if I am ok using side tables 24 niches high or do I need speaker stands.  Here is a layout drawing. Would love your thoughts.Thanks so much!AJ 

Should I use my play bar soundbar as a rear surround or play 1 speakers 

Hi, newbie here. I’m going to purchase a Sonos set up that consists of 4 architectual speakers, amp and a smart switch. All 4 in one room. It’s 6x4m. 2 one end for the bar area and two the other for the tv. I’m thinking a switch would be good to turn down/off either end when not needed. What’s people’s thoughts. Also, would there be a wiring diagram for this? Thanks  

Removed Playbar soundbar replaced with Arc.  Can’t get surround play1 speakers to respond

Gracias  Moderator Edit - Translation by Google:Hi, I have an ERA300 and I'm thinking of getting a second one to pair them in stereo. My question is: does it use all the drivers?
