Sonos Five Setting

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum.

I hope I'm writing in the right section, if not I apologize.

I'm asking for your help on the "Sonos Five" product.

I just bought it but I have some doubts, I can't adjust the highs and lows through the application, I move the cursor but nothing changes, while the balance and volume work regularly.

What could it depend on?

I also have another problem with the sound, on the highs it is too bright/sibilant, while the mid range is not very present, could it change with the break-in time? the bass is fabulous!!!

Has anyone had the chance to compare the Era300 with the Five?

Can the Era 300 have more relaxed highs and a more present mid-high? For the bass, can I add a subwoofer because I don't think it's at the same level as the Five.

It's just my simple thought, but if it's worth it I could do it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi.

Do you have any idea why the Sonos Fives don't pair as stereos? I have two in the same "dining room" with the same name but the left one always plays.

Both have a network cable connected to the Router and Wifi activated. If I set it as a double speaker, however, they both play (I think I should only lose the stereo effect).

I specify that the speakers are positioned "horizontal" vertically, I don't have space.

Thank you very much.

Please explain what you mean by “the same name”. Even if you have them in the same room one should show as “Dining Room 1” and the other as “Dining Room 2” or some other separate/distinguishing identifier.

@ Aereogetlam: The products are the same with updated firmware.

I managed to get them to work in stereo (at least I think so because it gives me L+R channel and I think it's correct) by deactivating the Wireless connection on both "Five" devices (both on the modem with cable) I don't understand why with the WiFi active I only hear the right channel.

@AjTrek1: You're right sorry, if configured in the same room it gave me Dining Room 1 and 2 with the two separate volume controls.

Now in stereo it only gives me "Dining Room" with Left Five and Right Five.

For now it seems to work, with the assistance I will investigate further why they don't work with WiFi active on both devices from the Sonos application.

I also put them in vertical position, the manual says that they should be automatically recognized as right and left channel, but I don't have space to leave them like that, I hope they work well in horizontal.......

Tomorrow the Subwoofer arrives so I have defined the system.
I'll let you know if everything is ok

Thank you very much for your help.
