Speakers

Hello Sonos Support Team, I’m experiencing an issue with connecting my Sonos device to Wi-Fi. Despite entering the correct Wi-Fi password, the device fails to connect under any circumstances. I’ve tried multiple times to ensure the password is correct, but the connection still does not establish. Could you please assist me in troubleshooting this issue? Any advice on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help.

Hi,I have two ERA 300 speakers running as a group in my living room.When I try to play via Airplay sound only comes from one speaker.If I manually power on the second speaker in the group I get a message that my Apple Music subscription is only for one device.Airplay is seeing the two grouped speakers as two devices.If the speakers are then connected as a stereo pair both speakers work fine.Is there any way around this issue? Dan

Good morning,     Hi everyone, I have a pair of Era 100s set up under my TV that I'm using as a stereo pair. Neither speaker has any issues on their own, or as a stereo pair through the app. It is only when they are connected through Bluetooth to my computer, one speaker randomly cuts in and out, completely ruining the stereo experience. I've already disconnected, factory reset, and reconnected them. They work great through the Sonos system, but over Bluetooth one always seems to cut out. I can't watch movies through my computer via Bluetooth without being completely pulled out of the experience as my right ear gets 0 of the audio. Any advice?

In my case, this error was when trying to connect to new WiFi (new router) was incorrect.Uninstall the Sonos app, reinstall and factory reset your Sonos and it will then connect - there is a bug in the Sonos app. The uninstall and reinstall will also trigger an update to the Sonos One SL and the device will then connect. 

I can see most of my (assorted) Sonos speakers in the Sound control panel of my Mac, which is running the latest OS (Sonoma 14.6.1). But when I try to select one of the Sonos speakers as the default sound output device, it flashes for a second and then reverts back to the previous default (either the Mac internal speakers or the desktop wired speakers (connected via mic port). Any suggestions?

I can’t reset my Play 5 model S100. It never turns green to connect

Do you have a guide on how to set up an SSID in my Meraki environment to wirelessly connect a couple of Five speakers to the network? I want to control the speakers with an iPad on the same wireless network, using the same VLAN. Right now, the app can’t see the speakers.

Hi Sonos Community,I’m trying to integrate audio playback from my website with my Sonos system, but I’m running into an issue where the sound isn’t syncing properly. The audio starts with a delay, and sometimes it doesn’t play at all through the Sonos speakers, even though other streaming services work fine.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:Tested the playback on different devices (laptops, tablets), but the delay remains. Checked my Sonos app settings to make sure the network is stable. Updated both my website’s audio player and my Sonos system to their latest versions.Is there a recommended way to optimize website audio for smooth playback on Sonos, or has anyone else encountered issues with delays when streaming from a website? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!

My Sonos One I used for surround sound died (crackling sound) after less than 3 years.   Is this the normal lifespan of a Sonos speaker? 

Play:5 connection issuesUnable to set up and add PLAY5 (Gen1) to my existing system.  Did a Factory reset on PLAY5 (blinking Green) but Wifi couldn’t detect it (phone Wifi network same, BT is On).  Connect through LAN cable, and the app could detect the PLAY5. However upon clicking “ADD” for the next set up step, it prompts message  'Your mobile device couldn't connect to your Play:5. Make sure the Play:5 is connected to power.'  I've plug / unplug cord multiple times, eventually results with the same message.  Anyone can help?

FOLLOWING THE PROMPTS TO CONNECT THE SUB:Add Sub - (it also request to connect to Sonos… which automatically removes the App from the normal WiFi to the Sonos… connection) Press the Flashing Button on the Side of the Sub Pressing the Button does nothing… (tried long-pressing, as well - nothing happens)There months ago, someone posted the same issue without a resolution and the tread now has this message:“This topic has been closed for further comments. You can use the search bar to find a similar topic, or create a new one by clicking Create Topic at the top of the page.” Sonos - this issue is not fixed. Do not close it for further comments - we need to be able to utilise the products that we bought.

I have 2 Sonos on SL and keep getting the same error code as we did back a couple months ago. 1,000 I have tried every troubleshooting method and just lost. Online it says both are registered under my upgrade tabs.  when try to connect it says error 

After adding an Arc Ultra, I’m now moving my original Arc to another room. I also have a Beam (Gen 2) in yet another room, and am trying to figure out how to best pair my subwoofers. One is a regular Sub (Gen 2), and the other is a Sub Mini.My first thought was to pair the regular Sub with the (original) Arc to keep the “higher end” gear together. However, the room the Arc is going in is significantly smaller than the room with the Beam (and there is a reason I want the Arc in that room, so that’s not a decision point). So maybe it’s better to use the Sub Mini in that room (along with the Arc)?I guess my real question is whether there is a functional tradeoff in using the Sub Mini with an Arc (relative to the regular Sub), other than overall power of the subwoofer. Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts.

Hey, folks.I just bought two Era 100s and set them up out of the box. The issue I’m having is that when I use the physical volume slider on one of the devices, the volume will frequently jump to 0.In other words, If I give it a good swipe, the volume will rise, suddenly jump to 0, and then continue rising to finish processing the swipe. For example, it might start at 17, go up to 39, suddenly jump to 0, and end on 6. It’s completely random when this happens; it’s not consistent in terms of volume or speed of swiping. If I keep swiping up, the volume gets up to anywhere between 10 and 60 before inevitably starting over from 0.Max volume is off, and I’ve also tried rebooting devices, wifi, and app. This behavior doesn’t happen on my paired Era 100; if I do the same, it rises as expected until it blows my ears out at 100.Any ideas on what the issue is? 

Im trying to use a cable with stereo connector on one end and optical on the other to connect my Sonos 5 to my LG TV

I have a setup which includes a stereo pair of Play:1’s (“TV Room”), a Play:3 (“Foyer”) connected via ethernet to a Google Nest wifi point, and a Play:5 (“Kitchen”). I can play an album from YouTube Music across all devices, but *not* one that I’ve uploaded to YouTube Music. I’m actually unable to even search across YouTube Music “Library” in the Sonos app when connected to that Kitchen device (I can find the album in the desktop Sonos app, and play it from there). The Play:5 shows up in the app, and I can adjust it (toggle the status light, raise or lower the volume on the device or in the app) but it does not play any audio when I try to play an album that I’ve uploaded to YTM. Here is the Network Matrix from the debug menu at http://192.168.86.210:1400/support/review Any ideas what’s going on?

When using the Sonos app almost every time I open it I look at system settting and it will tell me some of my speakers (my paired 5’s) are on a “different network”. We only have one network at home. So then I have to close and reopen the app a number of times and eventually after a seemingly random and always different period  the 5’s will show up on the network. But only one will play. Eventally the other one will kick in..maybe 3 or 4  minutes later. There are a multitude of other issues that also prevent me just playing music on my multiple Sonos components as and when I want. It’s always a hassle and has ruined a number of evenings where we have guests and I’m fiddling around trying to get Sonos to work. Invariably these guests decide Sonos is not for them.Tried calling the support line but I’m not willing to sit on hold for 40 plus minutes.I think I am at the stage of putting the whole system up for sale. I have seen no improvement over the last few months, other than volume contr

What is the easiest way to identify if a sonos Beam is Gen 1 or Gen 2?

have seven speakers on my sonos system. Two of the speakers show the network extension address in the app and the other five connect via the main modem versus the network extension devices.  The two on the extension devices wont respond to the app controls. They and allow adjustments but wont play.any suggestions?

I have a Play:3. Can It hook it to my computer through ethernet? I’ve got a bridge, but it isn’t recognized by my Mac system, so I thought I might take the Bridge out the the pass from computer to speaker.

I currently have a Play 3 in my family room with a Gen 3 Sub. Thinking of replacing/upgrading to two Era 100’s with the sub. Other than the better separation with the two Era 100’s in stereo will this be an upgrade ?

How can I determine the generation of my One SL speakers?
