Speakers

Hallo liebe Sonos Fans.Ich habe mir die Beam2 mit 2 Era100 zugelegt. Hauptsächlich um mit Surround Filme schauen zu können. Ich habe scheinbar das Problem,  dass ich entweder die Era als Stereopaar für Musik verwenden kann oder die Paarungen löschen muss damit ich sie als Surround Lautsprecher nutzen kann. Das wäre sehr umständlich.Mache ich etwas falsch?Kann ich die Anlage ohne Aufwand für Musik und Filme verwenden?Danke für Tipps!L.g. Chris 

I can't set up the play 5 gen 2 using an iphone 16 plus, iOS 18.0.1, i tried using bluetooth and ethernet cable so I have to use an iphone 13, iOS 18.0.1 and it works fine

Will Sonos be developing the ability to pair two subs other than a home theatre set-up? I have two subs in my lounge room and want them to pair with my tow 5’s for general music listening. 

So what brand of speakers are people moving to now that sonos have become completely useless crap? JBL seems like quality, the speakers atleast sound much much better than anything sonos has to offer, i am personally thinking of something along those lines. Looking for reccomendations, and who better to ask than former sonos gear owners and user 😊

Helping my parents at their new house. They have Sonos Arc Soundbar with Architectural Speakers. The system when playing music from the Sonos app or phone play on all speakers (soundbar and architectural speakers). However, when watching TV, only the soundbar plays the TV audio. Have tried a bunch of things recommended on the internet with no luck. 

what do i need to join my move and roam speakers. I recently sold my hose and left the full system. 

BuongiornoSono David B. ed ho finito poco tempo fa di comporre la saletta musica, film e giochi nella quale utilizzo con piena soddisfazione componenti Sonos ossia: un Arc, un Sub 3 gen e due era 300.La domanda che vi pongo è la seguente:come faccio a collegare la mia tastiera musicale Yamaha psr sx 600 al sistema Sonos?Ho già comperato l’adattatore Line in per Sonos era 300 e ho collegato un cavo jek 2 in uno (2cavi da 6,3 mm collegati all’ uscita aux della tastiera  che vanno a finire in un jek da 3 mm) collegato all’adattatore Sonos che ho collegato ad un era 300.Ma non si sente niente.Mi potete aiutare a risolvere il problema?Vi ringrazio e vi auguro una splendida giornataDavid 

I cannot connect my Sonos one to new Vodafone ultra hub.  I have compatibility mode enabled and have tried both networks and using a LAN cable.  Nothing works.  I have contacted Vodafone and they say they have set everything up correctly.  Can anyone help? 

I read about the Sonos Sub Gen 3 and now the Gen 4. But what I hear mainly is it’s performance with Home Theater Surround sound. What about music??  Does it sound good when listening to music? I’d like to know because I ordered a Gen 4.   

Is there anyway to get email notification from Sonos when they have availability of refurbished items, in my case in after 2 Era 300 white?

Hi,I recently upgraded my Internet to Starlink with a Gen 2 Router. As a result, I lost SONOS connectivity. To restore SONOS connectivity, I put the Gen 2 Router into Bypass mode and reinstalled my old Billion Router. Whilst SONOS connectivity was restored, I don’t have the WIFI Range or WIFI speed that the Gen 2 Router provided. So, I’m now looking to upgrade my Gen 2 Router to either a new Gen 3 Router or a 3rd Party Mesh Router. My question is:Does anyone have direct experience connecting SONOS devices using the new Starlink Gen 3 Router?If I can be assured of this then I’ll go SONOS Gen 3, if not then I’ll have to look for a 3rd solution. I just don’t want to spend the money on a solution that may not work.CheersDanny

Last night I tried for over 2 hours to connect my older play 5 and Play 1’s to my system. I tried the factory reset at least a half dozen times.  Plugged them into the Ethernet. Changed the network over a dozen times and absolutely will not connect to my app. I read the older models will not handle the recent updates. And I e read dozens of complaints about this is varios sites and blogs. So does that mean the older models are obsolete? I paid a lot of money for these speakers way back when and this is total nonsense if that’s true. Offering a 15-30% discount to trade them in is also ridiculous. These speakers should connect and last a life time. Sonos is FORCING us to by new speakers. I call this a scam and suggest it may be time to file a class action suit against the company. 

I try to connect Sonos Play:1 with my router FritzBox 7590. It doesn’t work, although I updated the OS as well as reset the settings of my Sonos. What else can I do?

Hi,I m going to buy Era 100 for my escape game in France I would like to know how i Can had a microphone push to talk to my pc to talk to the team through the speaker It will be usefull for me to talk to them if they are doing something wrong Thanks all !

Hi i used trueplay. But the speaker has way too much treble. If i turn loudness off in the EQ settings the speakers sounds very flat. With loudness on the trebles so high that i get headaches. But i cant find a setting between to harsh and enjoyable. If i set treble to -10 it sounds as if the speaker is behind a cussion, but if i turn it up a bit its to harsh. If i turn loudness off its ok but then like i said the sound's very  flat.  I never expierienced this with my echo studio or echo show. The speaker seems also very loud even just on 20% volume.  Thanks for your help. 😄

I followed the reset and set up steps but ended up with a Red and White flashing. I can identify the device on the Sonos App but I am unable to connect it the devices’s temporary network. I have 3 other Sonos Play 1, they work fine. I only have issues with this particular device. Not sure what’s wrong. 

Hello,I just did a factory reset on my Beam, it has been working good for more than a year, but after the factory reset i suddenly have huge problems.Install via Wifi doesn’t work, it won’t accept my wifi password, and yes i use 2,4GHz, i always split my networks (2,4 and 5GHz separate). I also tried on another router now, my old one, and not accepting my password, but with exactly the same password i can connect with other devices, so it really is a SONOS ISSUE.Then i try with ethernet cable,it goes trough setup, but ends with “cant connect to WIFI with “” “  so an empty network.. but i tried everything for last 3 hours.. using other networks during setup, start over with cable and without, performed another factory reset.. seriously, i have installed many Sonos products in the past, i have had 2 beams (gen1 and gen2) i have had 4 sonos one a roam etc Something is going on with the setup, some bug in the mobile app? I use latest android app (it’s up to date). any help would be appreci

Hello.

After 2 hrs on phone with cust serv, SONOS 5 was finally back to working, 4 mos after app update. Due to hurricanes, had some power outage and no time to listen to music. For reasons that don’t matter, I have 2 wifi connections, “A” and “B”. B is what everything is connected to but occasionally, devices will jump to A. Before trying to play SONOS today, I ensured phone app, laptop (music library) were both on B. But app couldn’t find my device. I tried unplugging and replugging as per directions. When I change phone app to wifi A, the device is discoverable but I can’t access laptop/music library. I also cannot force the app to point to WiFi B. There must be some way to do that but the only option it gives me is to delete WiFi B. Not what I want. How do I get the Sonos 5 to point at / prefer wifi B?

Why is Sonos the worst utility on my phone? It’s impossible to problem solve in the app. Nothing works. 

I reset the Sonos One from the instructions; but it doesn’t recognize the wireless router and thus won’t connect to my Spotify account.  It won’t connect to NPR radio station either.

Sonos - why not release an upgrade that opens apple AirPlay on all speakers.  This would allow people to play music and never need to use your truly awful app experience ever again.

My Sonos Sub 3/4 will not turn on. I've tried to reset by holding join button then plugging in to power but the light is off. Is the speaker dead?

The title of the post says it all, ladies and gentlemen.

I am about to move to a new house soon which will involve resetting my current system (as above title) and planning a media wall etc .. though this is exciting for me I have never really been a tech guy to sort best optimised usage for what I have, I would really like to know if the speakers I have would all work together maybe as a 5.1.. is this possible? Also would be very grateful for any room setup tips.. the new room to be has an unused standard fireplace/ chimney that protrudes forward with 2 alcoves either side.. and the room is about 12ft square....
