I have a set of play:1’s sitting on Sanus stands as part of my Sonos home theater system. One of them has been acting up and not working, so I need to replace it. I was thinking of just getting a new set of era 100s, but I’m not sure they will work with the existing stand. What current offerings work with that stand?  https://www.sonos.com/en-us/shop/sanus-floor-stand-pair-play1-play3-one

Hi! First post here. Live in Norway, but I guess the details are the same all over. I currently own a Boost, Sub gen 2, Arc, 4 Sonos One and one Play: 3.I’m thinking of replacing the Sonos One we have on the kitchen counter with a Move (gen 1) so I can remove the wire that makes a clutter, and be able to take it outside on the roof terrace.I know that the Move can be charged through the docking station or via USB-C, but what I would like to know is if the wire connected to the docking station can be removed when it’s not used. I know that the adapter itself can be removed from the wire, but my question is if the wire is permanently conneted to the docking station or not. I was hoping that the Move can be places on the docking station permanently on the kitchen counter, but don’t want the wire to be attached to the station, unless I’m using it. The alternative is to keep the docking station somewhere else, and just charge via USB-C.

What is best way to get started with a turntable to play my old vinyl collection.would like to be able to connect to all my Sonos speakers if possible.Have 3 Play Ones in separate rooms, a sound bar, sub and 2 play ones in living room, and a Move & Roam.do I require my thing extra to connect a Project T1 to the system? 

I was trying to add a Sonos Boost which had become disconnected from my system.  I reset the boost numerous times following the proper procedures.  Searching on the web, I found several references to simply “Add a Boost.”  But what no one clarified is that this option doesn’t automatically appear.   The Sonos Boost must first be correctly connected to the router, in my case a router extender, Orbi.The Sonos app on my iPhone only displayed the “Add a Boost” box option from Settings...System… “once” I connected the Sonos Boost directly to the router extender hardware that provides a WiFi mesh.  Connecting the Sonos Boost directly to the main router apparently was an incorrect configuration.  If you’re not seeing the option, try checking your connection to the router.

Hi, I have a Panasonic 50HX800 used for streaming video and music from Apple TV 4K (Netflix with subtitles, Spotify, podcasts, my own music on a server). My budget is limited.The TV sounds better than expected with speech (film dialogue, podcasts), which is the most important for me (I study languages), while music is not great (tolerable, for a while). My options:invest in a used Beam gen 1. now (currently around 130€/$) wait/save and invest in a used Beam gen. 2 (330 €) wait/save and invest in a used Sub Mini (alas, 350 €) start with a less-expensive sub a combination of the above.Panasonic has a headphone-out that doubles as a subwoofer-out (which I understand requires an active sub, but I’m not sure if a Sub Mini alone can be an option).I would needsuggestions for a setup that would improve my audio in a foreseeable future clarification: is there a risk of experiencing out-of-synch audio and video/subtitles? (it would be the worst scenario if it happens and cannot be fixed)I am a n

Hello. I have been using a single Era 300 to listen to music but have recently purchased a Sub Mini and Beam gen 2. My thinking was I could connect the sub to the Era 300 when listening to music and to the Beam when watching TV. This doesn't seem to be possible, though. The sub connects to ether the Era or Beam and can't be easily swapped. Does anyone have a solution, or any thoughts on how best to use this combination? Thank you in advance!

So with my system, I have an ARC, Sub and 2 One SLs. Has anyone upgraded the ONE SLs to the Era 300s? Is it worth it and does it make the whole experience better? Can’t find any YouTube videos by anyone comparing the 2 sets of speakers side by side.

How can I show recently added songs in a Spotify playlist that I created within the Sonos app? 

Need help in selecting amp, 6 speakers for my outdoor patio (4 indoor and 2 outdoor), I need 3 zones so I can control music in speakers. so basically I have 3 separate section. Lets call it Room 1- IndoorRoom 2 - OutdoorRoom 3 - outdoorEach room will have 2 speakers but I need centralize place to control speaker and can I create zones so I can only run speaker in room I want?Any help would be great.

I have a stereo pair of wall-mounted Play:3 speakers in the corners of a 7x5m room. They are approximately 20cm from the ceiling and 20cm in from the outside wall as shown by the red markings on the floor plan below. I have high-level power outlets just behind the speakers to avoid cables running up/down the wall.I feel it’s time to upgrade from the Play:3s (especially with Sonos offering discount for trading up) but don’t know what to buy. Whatever I choose needs to be able to fill the room reasonable well for social gatherings, which the Play:3s just about do.I was thinking a pair Era 300s, but Sonos advise more space above the speaker than I have - will this be OK or am I paying for the spatial and not being able to use it? Would a pair of Era 100s be man-enough for a room this size? Would a mini-sub help? Perhaps a pair of Move 2s (or even Move 1s if I can find any), although this feels like I’m paying for the mobility and not using it? A pair of Fives would certainly be a step up,

Can my sub be used with Sonos amp and passive speakers

Hi all, since i changed back to utility warehouse for my broadband my sonos looses connection before it has even played 1 full song…… any suggestions for the best broadband group to use for the best sonos experience? 

Hello Everyone,After a decade of learning from this forum, I'm excited to make my first post.  I’m seeking feedback on my planned strategy to upgrade my Sonos System. This Thursday, I intend to transition from my legacy Sonos hardware, which operates on my 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi mesh network, to the latest models that will utilize my 5 GHz network and operate at 802.11n or better.  I am particularly interested in hearing your thoughts on the potential challenges of switching between these two sets of hardware and these two frequency bands.Current Setup: My existing system includes three Play:5s (Gen 2), two Subs (Gen 2), a Play:3, a Play:1, a Connect (Gen 2), and an Era 300, all running without SonosNet.New Setup: My upgraded system will have three Fives, two Subs (Gen 3), two Era 100s, a Port, and continue using the same Era 300.Networking Gear: I use a Verizon-provided CR1000A router and an AiMesh network setup consisting of an Asus GT-BE98 Pro and three Pro ET12s. Each access point shares th

What is the easiest way to connect a Bluetooth turntable to a Sonos home theater setup with beam, sub and surround speakers. It seems the Bluetooth functionality of the era 100 surround speakers is disabled because they are being used as surround speakers

Hi,i recently bought a Move 2 (not yet received) for the outdoor use on my porch.And now i had that idea, that i can use the Move 2 as a front speaker and my existing one sl as rears for an incredible public viewing of fifa european cup next month.so: can i connect the move 2 with a tv and the sound then goes to the rear one sl’s like my arc is the master to them in my living room.thx for replies and suggestions

So many issues that I don’t know where to start! I’ve spent the best part of £10k and it’s so problematic that I’m regretting buying it all! Try again later is the Sonia setup advice! Oh yeah that will help!Moderator Edit: Removed serial numbers.

I bought an ARC and Sub + a Move and just purchased 2 - ERA 100's.  I'm wondering if I should have purchased another Move instead of the ERA 100's.  Can the Move's be paired with the ARC/Sub vs 2 ERA 100s

Hello Sonos gurus, my current setup in my 2 room apartment is:Android phone playing YouTube Music/TuneIn/whatever via BT Bedroom has a Como Audio Solo + Como Ambiente, forming a nice little stereo setup which recieves BT and duly plays the audio Living Room has an Aiyima D03 BT amp, which recieves the BT audio and powers 2 small but powerful-enough-for-me bookshelf speakersIt works just fine, except that I’m always moving between the rooms, and hence am always disconnecting & connecting the Como and the Aiymima on my phone. This is very tiresome.Hence, I am very interested if 2 Connects could be grouped together in order to play audio in both rooms without the faffing around. This seems a great fit for me if possible as I get to leverage my existing audio hardware.Since I’m a total Sonos n00b, I don’t really know where to start when determining if this setup is feasible and hence a few pointers / links would be fantastic.Cheers.

HelloQuite often questions are asked in the community about the proper installation of In-Ceiling speakers. Sonos provides general installation guidelines reference their Architectural In-Ceiling Speakers made in collaboration with Sonance.  At best it’s somewhat pedestrian in nature.  Below is a link to a PDF prepared by Smart Home Sounds in the U.K. that goes in-depth on the subjects you see below the link. Ironically they are Sonos centric; but also mention other brands as well. You’ll even see pictures of the Sonos Amp as an integral component in the installation. Sweet!! 😊I feel confident in recommending this as a must read if you are considering in-ceiling speakers for your home. Enjoy!Note: I have no connection of any sort to the company. However, in keeping with Sonos Community Rules of Conduct please beware there is a link in the PDF to their website which contains advertisements and products for sale other than Sonos. https://smarthomesounds.sirv.com/live-wordpress/2019/03/C

Afternoon!  I’ve got a Play5 Gen2 with a bunk Wi-Fi chip. Works great over ethernet or if I have a WiFi mesh node within 1ft of it. Currently, it’s running over Wi-Fi with a mesh node next to it. As far as the Sonos ecosystem is concerned it’s on Wi-Fi and working fine.  I was considering adding a second as a stereo pair, but my concern is that the pairing will require Sonos Net which means it likely won’t work with the bad Wi-Fi card. Will the stereo pair work strictly over my home Wi-Fi? Or does a stereo pair of Play5 Gen2 do the stereo pairing via Sonos Net?

I would like to know how can I aligned the Bose’s bar with the sonos speakears to control d severas spaces in the house this connection could affect the high fidelity quality?

Hi I’m thinking of trying sky Glass TV could anyone tell me if my Arc will connect to the sky glass tv ?

I have an Samsung TV with 1 HDMI input, 1 Display port Out, RCA analog out.  The HDMI input is used for Firestick. I purchase several analog to digital converts and none provide audio to the Sonos Beam. Is there a solution for older TV with analog audio out to connect to Sonos Beam?
