Speakers

I have an S1 system which contains Play:5 (gen1), Play:1, Play:3 and a Sonos beam. All of these suffers from jittery playback on Sonos radio (more specifically Swedish P3 stream), where it seems to “jump ahead” in the stream (for like .5, 1s) occasionally in the beginning. After an hour or two of playback, this increases and eventually it’s a complete jitter of sound which definitely seems like some sort of buffering problem. Stopping and starting the stream, instantly fixes it, which really makes me think this is a software problem. Question is, are there other out there that experience the same thing?This is also prominent in all of the devices, so it seems to have little to do with the outdated Play:5 (which still, 3 years later, can’t playback Spotify anymore 🤬). I contacted support, sent a diagnostics when the issue was at it worst and got the same brain dead support response where he remote rebooted my system because he claimed it had weak connections. I also got the “pro” respo

I know this topic has been beaten to death, but in my digging I haven’t seen a scenario that seems to quite line up with this one.  Hoping it’s an easy fix. I have a bunch of Play:1’s and a a playbar littered around my house.   I have one single speaker in a kid’s room that I find goes ‘unavailable’ for a couple of minutes multiple times per hour.   (I note this in the log of my Home Assistant environment that Sonos is integrated into).  Actually playing things on the speaker works just fine.  The Sonos app works just fine.  But according to that log, the flipflopping to unavailable keeps happening.I don’t believe it’s an HA thing (beyond it maybe possibly timing out a bit faster than it should perhaps), because it is ONLY happening on this one speaker for the entire house.I recently switched from SonosNet to wifi-only in an attempt to combat this, but no avail.  When I was on SonosNet the speaker did show it wasn’t getting a great connection.  However since unplugging all the wires an

Hello,Since updating my system to firmware version 90.0-67171, I've noticed a significant change in how my Sonos home theater setup behaves.Previously, I had the following configuration:Beam Gen 2 (Ethernet wired)Sub Mini2 × One SLs (used as surrounds)In this setup, the Beam served as the wired node, and all other speakers were connected via SonosNet (WM:0). This provided excellent stability and completely offloaded traffic from my main Wi-Fi network. The connection matrix showed full green mesh connections, and everything worked flawlessly.After the update:The Beam remains on WM:0The Sub Mini and One SLs are now on WM:3The connection matrix shows no mesh activityAll bonded speakers now appear to bypass SonosNet and instead rely on my regular Wi-FiThis has reduced visibility and performance control, and I’m now seeing increased Wi-Fi traffic through my primary access point, which defeats one of the main reasons I invested in Sonos in the first place.Is there a way to make SonosNet work

Have been enjoying a stereo pair of Sonos Play 5 Gen 1 speakers with Sonos Sub Gen 2 on S1 app. I thought these are excellent and very happy with it. Then I read about the superiority of Sonos Five. I must admit I should have done more research but thinking Sonos gear will price increase so I bought a pair of Sonos Five after 30% upgrade discount. Arrived this morning and in no time I have set up both Sonos Five as stereo pair and included the Sub. Had to upgrade firmware along the way but no issues whatsoever. Have no trueplay as I have a S25 Ultra.I listened to smooth jazz the whole day and I cannot say this setup is any better than my previous one. I would say its the same. I am actually quiet dissapointed. Could it be this new setup requires trueplay unlike my previous setup? As for placement, I simply remove my Play 5 and replace it with Five. The Sub placement the same.   

I keep on getting an error message looking for network every time I log on to SonosI have upgraded all my Sonos speakers to 300 and 100s I am running are  a ubiquiti System from a virgin media set in mode mode running through my own router through a POE switch then to my 3 APU all the speakers are Wi-Fi  the message reads your system cannot be found on network update network  So then you’ve got to keep on repeating and putting in the speakers very annoying  so please can someone help me if you have had this problem yourself?

Hi, I have five Sonos speakers in the house, 2 in the lounge, 2 in the kitchen and one portable one. At any given time some or all of them disappear from the Sonos App and cannot be found from an iPhone connected to the same WiFi network.  Right now I am typing this on my iPhone and I can see all the speakers in the Sonos app. My wife sat next to me, connected to the same WiFi, and she can see none of them. Sometimes it’s the other way around. Sometimes we can see a couple of the speakers and not the others.  Any ideas?  Chris

Have I missed something during the setup, if you put any pressure on the front the unit tips forward. Just thinking that my adventuring cat could fairliy easily tip the unit & either fall on to the floor or worst fall on her, wall mounting is not an option.

My sub mini EQ keeps resetting to zero several times a day. May las a couple of hours, but eventualy resets to zero.

I am looking to buy the Samsung q7. Will my 2 era 300 speakers connect to the tv wirelessly or via Bluetooth? 

Would my Sonos beam gen 2 work good with one era 300 In my condo?

Hi everyone,I’ve extended my WiFi with a new node on a Starlink network. Since then 2 of my Sonos look online, are connected and show that they are playing but nothing is happening. As soon as I restart the node, they reconnect to the original WiFi antenna and start playing music normally.the new antenna works perfectly with other devices. any ideas?

Bonjour, Mon domicile est entièrement équipé de système sonos, dans toutes les pièces. Dans le salon, j'ai 1 playbar, 1 sub et 2 play 1. En mode cinéma je n'ai pas de problème, par contre lorsque j'écoute de la musique dans le salon, le son se coupe pendant quelques secondes et revient. J'ai tout essayé, changer de box, brancher tous les éléments en câble rj45, j'ai toujours le problème. J'ai lu sur certains forums que d'autres utilisateurs ont le même problème et qu'il s'agirait d'un beug depuis une mise à jour.Je commence a désespérer. Qui pourrait m'aider ?Merci. 

I have recently added a wiim ultra to my ecosystem. My use case is two fold; firstly I use it as a headphone amp for Spotify, my NAS library and my turntable, because Sonos inexplicably has no option to integrate headphones (even the ones they make)Second, for aforementioned turntable I use the wiim ultra to cast a flac stream via DLNA to my Sonos set up.It works great, I chose a target speaker in the Wiim app for the stream and then group the additional speakers.Except when I change the volume on the wiim it only affects the linked speakers, not the group. This means I have to use the Sonos app to control the group volume. Annoying I have spoken to Sonos support who didn't really want to discuss as they state this "is not a recommended set up" (despite the fact they have no alternative recommendation for my use case(s)).I have logged a feature request but thought I'd check here if I'm missing something or anyone has found a workaround...

Hello SonosI placed an order with your good selves with a 40% discount code which you offered me for my next purchase my case number: [redacted] because the discount code did not work properly, you advised me to not accept the delivery which I have done, but it seems that it takes a hell of a time to get back to your warehouse to be re-scanned in to be re-issued with a refund and another 40% discount code which I'm still waiting for in this day and age it should not take 12 days and still no sign of a refund or discount code I've got the same situation with another company Ubiquiti  once they received the parcel the next day from myself the item was processed that day and back in the post the same day that is called professional conduct and an experience to receive What has gone wrong with Sonos processes? Moderator edit: removed and recorded case number.

My old Sonos play 3 won’t connect to my WiFi anymore without a intranet cable, they work once connected but when I unplug they stop working, any advice?

I am using the current Sonos app (Controller for Mac OS S2 Version 17.2) on a 2020 iMac running MacOS Sequoia 15.6.1. I have an Arris Model NVG578HLX router connected to a TP-Link TL-SG105 Ethernet switch. I have a Sonos Five connected to the switch via Ethernet cable. The Five (left) is paired with a second Five (right) and a Sonos Sub. I have five Sonos One SLs in various rooms. All speakers are showing they are in Wireless Mode 0 (SonosNet). I am having a problem with the speakers cutting out randomly, even if I just am playing music through 2 or 3 speakers instead of the whole system. This was happening when they were on Wi-Fi, before I connected the Five to the switch. I thought changing from Wi-Fi to SonosNet would resolve the issue but it has not. Note: the Sonos app and each speaker’s firmware is up to date. When I play Sonos Radio, all speakers play as expected. The issue appears when I am playing Apple Music, specifically my personal library mirrored in Apple Music via iTunes

I’d like to add a second sub mini. I use my Sonos system for music, so a larger ported sub doesn’t make much sense. I have a lot of experience with subwoofer installation and the benefit of two smaller subs almost always wins out against one larger sub for music, even though it probably won’t be as loud, it will simply sound better in more listening locations of a room.  I wonder if this is possible or if there is a feature request option to forward to Sonos.If you haven’t tried this before, the best way I can describe it is a less pronounced version (since lower frequency sounds aren’t directional) version to one speaker alone, and then adding a second for a stereo pair. Room resonance issues can create peaks and valleys in different locations. A single subwoofer will have the same room resonance issues in said location even if you triple its size. A second sub does wonders to smooth this out so more parts of the room have an even, pleasant bass. I’m really surprised it’s not a featur

Trying to re establish my wireless Sonos 1 speakers (4 total)

It's past time to sack the software development team, they must be working for the competition, there is no other explanation. The app has got worse again. I will not invest any further in Sonos hardware until the app is back to where it was. Frankly it is crap. I feel conned. Great hardware with crap software. What the hell are you idiots doing? Sack the developers and let a third party in or gold. 

Hey all,Have had Sonos since many years, and with mix of first and second generation products, ie 1,3,5 and soundbar w subwoofer. Actually still installed the boosterNavigating and selecting music with various Apple products, from iPhone 11 Max, through iPad to the newest iMac.Since the January SOnos update, I still face problems with very slow response when anting to change, and the very annoying issue, that sometimes some of the SOnos component aren’t available for selection. Actually sometime not in 1 Apple products (iPhone), but then selectable on the iPad.I want to start this conversation towards Apple use of SOnos, with older a newer Apple products to older and newer Sonos products.Any guidance ? Any learnings?Looking very much forward to your comments. Thanks

I am having trouble setting up my SOnos home cinema.In my sitting room, I have a One connected to my router. All my other speakers use Sonosnet and this mostly works great.I added an Arc Ultra to the sitting room and this is also working. However, I am now trying to connect up rear speakers.I moved another One into the sitting room and tried to setup both this and the One connected to my router with the Arc. I get a little way through the process and then I am told that the Arc needs a wired ethernet connection.I should say at this point that I have tried my Sonos setup in wifi standalone mode before and it did not go well - the network was incredibly unreliable and I do not want to go there again.I spoke to technical support about this and from what I can gather I have three options.1. Get a very long ethernet cable and drape it all around the walls of the sitting room so I can plug the Arc in. One of the reasons I chose the Arc was to avoid having cables everywhere.2. Buy a mesh netw

Lot of comments and disappointment with Sonos Sub Gen 2.  All seem to be ignored by Sonos.  I had 2 of these units.  Both have now failed and become useless within 5 years.  Very disappointing considering I still have alternate old school speakers that are 25 years old still going well.  Obviously a fundamental issue with these subs which Sonos had no solution for fix.  Only receive 30% reduction on new product.  Sonos should provide 5 year warrenty to standby their product.  

I am trying to repair a generation 2 sub. I have narrowed the problem down to the secondary power supplies. R37 has been burned out, there were posts that said R37 is a 18 ohm resistor however the marking on posted pictures show a smt resistor marked 18d. This is not a 180 Ohm resistor.  Has anyone successfully repaired a sub 2 with the problem being the secondary logic voltages ? I believe I have identified Q16 and D6?  marked as Y2 and 2F.  Any help would be appreciated, as there is very little info on the web. Thanks,  Carl

The last update a couple of weeks ago made my gen3 subs sound so much better there is another update today I googled about update it says to revert Sonos sub gen3 back to previous update I haven’t done update cos I love the new sound is anyone else in this situation
