Speakers

I have an arc connected to my tv and two era 300 speakers as well. they are all connected as surround and works perfect. My question is that i have someone coming to play at an event at my home and they are bringing a Bose Bluetooth enabled speaker with an allen and roth amp. NOT in a place that I can connect a direct cable to the sonos , so the question is how do i play the music from the live performer into my sonos sytem without connecting a direct cable and what would need? I AM NOT electronic savy at all so please have some grace when you reply so that i can fully understand my solution, what i need to buy and how to set it up. Thanks to anyone that can assist me

I recently got new WiFi and was able to successfully connect my other Sonos One devices via WiFi. My older Play:1 though wouldn't factory reset so, based on other questions & answers here I connected it via Ethernet to my router and was able to successfully reboot and add it to my system. The problem is that it wont get added to the WiFi and no matter how many times I go through the steps to “manage/update network” the device never pops up. I've tried unplugging it from the Ethernet and adding it but no dice. Trying to do a factory reset without the Ethernet connection doesn't work either. 

Currently my sonos 5 is physically plugged into the router by ethernet cable and my sonos 1 is paired with the 5. I have attempted to find a blutooth option instead but am unable to get this to work. Can i set this up without physical ethernet connection to the router?

I've had my Sonos system for about 2 months now, but I notice that every so often it disconnects from the app and gets unconfigured, having to reset the entire system and reconfigure it with some kind of problems. How can I avoid this? My WiFi signal is 100%

I’m sitting on my couch trying to watch The Witcher using 2 Play 5s and 1 Play 1. They WILL NOT group despite multiple attempts, reboots etc. I just get a simple non descript message saying “could not connect” related to the SINGLE Play 1. This is just 1 problem of dozens since I was forced to adopt the s2 update turd that dropped in May.  I’ve just about given up. I’m embarrassed for Sonos. What a piece of crap this system has become. I’ve had people over to listen to music or watch tv crippled by lack of sound through my Sonos speakers. So I should say I am embarrassed for myself for choosing to invest in this hunk of cow dung known as Sonos. 

Hi all, Since the latest app this week I can no longer connect to the second system at our holiday house. It works on the Windows app but not on iPhone or Android. In other words, it's not really usable to have to get out a laptop to launch music, manage volumes, etc. The Apple and Android apps just say they can't find a system on this network then ask to update the network. When we do that, it still doesn't work. The fact that it does work on Windows suggests the issue is with the new crApp. Another fail from the super heros we pay lots of money to. Sorry to say that SONOS team but you are very clearly not testing your software before launching it on us, your paying customers.  GET IT RIGHT...please. 

My Sonos has just gone, died! stopped playing radio and cant access hard drive for music. Have messaged a friend and she’s having same issue. What’s going on? Anyone know. This service is getting worse and worse.

when playing music from my Synology NAS drive using the ds audio app, i get no sound from Sonos speakers.  Files show they are playing, but no sound

I have in parts a pretty old system:two play:1 from 2014, paired with a sub from 2019 two move from 2020it’s never hard connection problems. e.g. I see all speakers in my system. and I can always start music on them. but the reaction time is terrible. changing a song sometimes can take 10-30 sec and is almost never instant. same for changing the volume. sometimes it doesn’t react at all and I can not even stop the music any more. there is one peculiar effect, that might ring a bell with someone: if I switch from bluetooth to sonos the music continues on spotify, but I don’t have any sound. only if I change the position in the song the sound will come.I did the commonly recommended things like resetting router and speaker. but if you think it makes sense to do it again, should I try with only a subset of speakers first? I never have any other problems with my WIFI/router. obviously it’s not the internet connection (via bluetooth everything is fine) I usually control the music via the sp

Would like to connect what is playing in the Era 100 Bluetooth speaker (the turntable, a phone) to the rest of the Sonos speaker system, primarily play speakers. Is that possible?

Trying to add a Play 1 to my system. Have done a factory reset and power cycled.App finds the Play 1, has done an update, and my mobile connects to the temp WiFi but the speaker doesn’t play the chime. It then asks for a button press and doesn’t detect that either. Bit stuck now. White light is flashing on top. Any help gratefully received.

Hi all, I was wondering whether someone could help me with an issue I have been having. I have a Sonos era 100 pair and a beam gen3 with a sub in my lounge,And a pair of Sonos era 100s in my kitchen! 80% of the times I go on the app to merge the speakers I get "era 100 pair not Connected" message on my kitchen pair, but my lounge speakers are always there and working fine. I have done the reset speakers and turn them off then reconnect to my wifi which sorts it out, but I can't do this evertime they don't show up, Is this a app issue which they are sorting or is there a solution to this that I can do myself? I'm so frustrated after spending a lot of money on this kit. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rich 

Hello. I just changed my network and my Sonos One cant connect to the new one. When iam in the app trying to connect with the sonos, nothing happens. I tried pressing the button in the back while iam taking out the power. Anything else I can do?

 I regularly want to group my lounge speaker to the stream playing in the kitchen. I hold the play button on the speaker in the lounge to group it, but it will group with another speaker say in the bedroom or a TV. I continue to cycle through the playing speakers until it finally groups with the kitchen. I would like to be able to set a preference in settings to select a preferred speaker to group to so that if the kitchen is streaming it will always group with the kitchen speaker. 

I really do despair. This morning I thought I would try out the SONOS to see what its current state is. BAD is my feedback. I switched on the stereo pair of PLAY:1’s that I have. All good, Music started playing. Music stopped, both lights had turned green. Eventually, after multiple attempts, I managed to allegedly update the speakers. BUT, the indicators are still green, the SONOS app tells me the speakers are up to date, the app thinks its playing but their is no sound coming from the speakers. Tried connecting the two speakers to my router via ethernet cable to see if that would fix the issue. It didnt. Sonos can see the stereo pair, but just wont play music through them. Deleted the stereo pair and reconnected. Did play sound through the added speaker.  I cant seem to update the original post… I have spent 3 hours trying different combinations of things… even rebooted my router and used a different phone running a different version of android. I do not seem to be able to add 2 x PL

Does Sonos allow for setting of a cross-over frequency for the Sub?  If so, how is it accessed?  All I see is a volume control for the Sub

Hello, how are you? I'm having trouble setting up the Sonos Era 100. When I add it, an update appears that always gives error -30. I've already switched phones, reset the speaker, etc., and nothing works. It's very frustrating because the product isn't cheap. How can I solve this?

Buenas compré un conjunto de altavocez de sonos 2 era 300 para la sala de y el comedor q son abiertos y están conectados y 10 era 100 para repartir en el resto de habitaciones y áreas de la casa. Mi duda es la siguiente de qué manera es mejor colocar y configurar os altavoces para tener un sonido más uniforme por toda la casa por ejemplo en el área de la sala y comedor con los era 300 se recomienda ponerlos uno en cada area independiente o ponerlos a trabajar como estéreo. Y con los era 100 por ejemplo en la cocina o en los cuartos grandes con 2 altavoces es mejor emparejarlos y q trabajen como estéreo o separarlos los más posibles para que el audio se reparta por toda la habitación. También tengo duda si para el exterior de la casa es aconsejable usar 2 o 3 altavoces Move 2 o usar altavoces pasivos con un amplificador. Gracias de antemano por su respuesta 

So I have had a Sonos system for about 6 or 7 years, maybe more. And all of that time I have been willing to forgive the almost complete unuseability of the products to the point where I did recommend them to a number of friends. However those days are over. My hat off to the creators of this ruse and the slogan ‘Effortless listening’. Never has there been a product made that requires more effort to manage than Sonos. Congratulations then on two fronts. Conning us into believing your products work (imagine getting into a car that you had to reset randomly and inexplicably 6 - 12 times per month) and coming up with a slogan that is actually precisely 180 degrees away from what the product actually is. 👏

New to SONOS. Been using a pair of Yamaha MusicCast WX-030 and have been very happy with it. Until I chanced on a pair of SONOS 5 Gen 1 on facebook. Had the SONOS for a week in pair stereo mode with S1 and WOWWWWWWWWWWWW. I can understand why people spend $$$$$$$$ although I do not see myself spending so much on new SONOS gear. Lucky the pair I bought cleans-up nicely and sounds perfect.

Play 1 won’t reset past orange light even using Ethernet cable connected to router?
