Any more experiences with the update?

Following the update, all seems good on my Era 100, with music playing from my NAS.

I’ve never heard of so many issues with new Sonos speaker. We shouldn’t have to work so hard to make an expensive product work. SO many are having significant issues. How could Sonos release such a buggy product?

i think so too
i'm just surprised that they release a patch for it but it doesn't fix the problem

So far i have no problems anymore but tomorrow I’ll test more and hopefully it’s really fixed! 

@Edwin_73

what sound formats do you know?

Honestly, when listening to music (Spotify) this crack occurred quite frequently. With this update I didn’t hear it yet…. Tomorrow I will have a more decent look

To me the problem still persists after the 15.2.2 update… maybe weaker but more frequent.

Hi @Wolf 

Thank you!

Hi @Denni_86 

That explains why my system said it was up-to-date when I checked it to verify - I don’t have Eras. Apologies.

The update addressed some Era-specific issues, but, at present, that’s all the info I have on it.

Hi @ProfessorPeach & @LuiG 

As you are both reporting hearing popping noises coming from your Arcs since you added Era 300s as surrounds, could you both please reproduce the issue and while the source is still playing, submit a support diagnostic, replying here with the given numbers when convenient? Thank you.

hi - I am having the same issue (Arc, 2x Era and Sub) - popping/static noises and since the recent update I’m now getting the era 300’s dropping sound. Had none of these issues with the same set up that had 2x Play 3 acting as the surrounds. Diagnostic number 1551964344
