Speakers

Is the new Era 100 SL compatible for stereo pairing with any older speaker?

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🤬

Can we please get the balance option on the settings back.

I have two Era 100’s I have in a stereo pair that will loose connection with each other causing one of the speakers to quit playing.  Opening the app and looking, they are still paired together, just not working.  why isn’t SONOS doing anything about it since they know about it?  Or am i not seeing their solution?  i have tried everything possible and nothing, they keep cutting off.  Come on SONOS why is there a community forum, do you not look at it?It’s doing it now as i write this Forum...

I gave up on my Sonos speaker years ago because of poor compatibility with many of my audio apps. I connected to my old speaker again to see if the UI had improved at all, and in many ways it was a lot better! However, there's no skip ahead function in Pocket Casts. This is a real deal breaker because I hate ads and always fast forward through them. Are there any good free Android podcast apps that have this functionality in Sonos?

Hoping I’m not the only one. Out of the blue a few days ago, when asking our Sonos 1 to play a song via Google assistant/youtube music, it now says “sorry I can’t do that on this device”. I’ve deleted,readded,reauthorized, rebooted, reinstalled (I’ve re-everythinged). No luck. Works fine on my iPhone via Siri.  Why don’t Sonos and Google play nice?

Our old zoneplayer s5 speaker was working great until I stupidly updated to S2 without realizing it is not compatible. I have tried many fixes: deleted S2 app and reinstalled S1, reset speaker to factory settings but nothing allows the app to find the speaker anymore-any help. It was working yesterday until I did the app upgrade :-(

Suddenly my Sonos speakers are no longer found on the local WiFi network when I want to stream music (via Airplay or otherwise). The app still works and through the app I can play music on my speakers. However, on my IPhone (and my girlfriends IPhone), we cannot use Spotify or other audio apps that previously worked. On Spotify it said: ‘no devices found on this network’. we have ‘klik en klaar’ internet from Odido. any idea how to fix this? 

Bonjour,J’ai changé mon enceinte Sonos (installé une sonos One SL à la place d’une Play 1) et je ne trouve plus mes playlists Sonos, concoctées avec amour depuis des années (des décennies même!).Que dois-je faire?

Hi everyone,I’ve been using an Era 100 with a Line-In connection for a while now, but over the last two months, the behavior has changed significantly and it’s becoming quite frustrating.The Issue: If there is no sound for a short period, the Era 100 seems to "disconnect" or go into a deep sleep mode. When I start playing music again, it takes about 10 seconds before any audio actually comes out of the speaker.Why this is strange: This was not happening two months ago. It used to be near-instant or at least much faster. I am using the official Sonos Line-In adapter. Once it finally "wakes up," the audio is fine, but if I pause for a few seconds, the cycle repeats.  System Info: Speaker: Era 100 Connection: Line-In (Official Adapter) App Version: [Insert your app version here, e.g., 80.x] Thanks for any help!

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 that brings mt to "Update the ne

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 as a device from the Spotify app on

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 exact same problem. I hope that Sonos understands that closing the topic doesn't mean the problem is solved. You actually need to fix your bug.

 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 2s? Any help would be appreciated. Si

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
