I got Sonos Arc and Sub under my TV, but I lack a rear/surround sound. So I consider buying Sonos Era 300. What do you think is the best placement for it?Thought about 3 options (pictures attached). Not sure I need 2 Eras though..What do you think?Let me know if you got another idea..Thanks!

I have purchased new Sony TV KD-55X75WL which I wish to connect to Sonos 5 speakerOn my old Sony TV worked well via Line-InThe new TV has Dolby Atmos

Would you so kind as to help mi with the following issues as I can't find answers quickly.And I still prefer to seek support form the source :-)I tested and bought a Sonos Arc last week and it works well but I can't decide where to putit to work best. My "indoor cinema" is a retractable screen (3 x 2.5 m) anda BenQ W2700 projector (photos).This screen is perforated, which means it isacoustically "transparent" (but probably not completely). And, the basic issue is that thescreen (rolled out from the ceiling) has its lower edge separated from the floor by 44.5 cmand the distance from the wall to the screen plane is 29 cm.I have three options for installing Sonos Arc:- behind the screen, on the wall (1 m from the floor, "height" of the heads of seated "cinema" viewers)- on the wall, under the screen (40 cm from the floor)- on the wall under the screen 44.5 cm from the floor, on a boom eliminating the distance of 29 cmWhich solution is the best from the acoustics point of view?

Have own Sonos system for 2 years and never been able to connect to Audible. Many talks to support and no solution. I live in Iceland and have Audible UK, but when I connect to Audible the authentication is always for Audible US. Support tells me that I have to change my Sonos Profile and live in UK. For many months my Profile says I live in UK but still the authentication is for Audible US instead of UK.Why don’t let user choose witch Audible Market u want to authenticate against? Like everyone else does it.

I don’t use Sonos every day.  But on the weekends it’s nice to use.  Unfortunately the constant requirement for updates forces me to stop what I’m doing, update my computer, update my mobile device, often restart my computer and device, sometimes unplug sonos or my router to reset.  It’s become so burdensome that Sonos is no longer a usable device.  This has been going on for years without any signs of improvement.  Sorry, no longer will I be a Sonos user

I’m looking for advice to setup my master bedroom.Bedroom has two ceiling speakers close to the wall mounted TV. I have a Sonos AMP connected to the speakers I have a Sonos Mini Sub in the room. My viewing area is on the bed, which is opposite wall to the TV.What is the ideal surround setup? If the ceiling speakers are close to the rear, I’d just use them as a surround and problem solved.I was thinking of either a Beam or Arc along with Era 300. But not sure if the fact that the ceiling speakers are in the front would affect the decision.

hi just touching on this which im sure has already been asked plenty of times, but can we just get dts hd and dts x already it seems crazy to me to think a system that can cost up to and over 1500 hasnt the ability to play these modern formats, when you could pick up a standard av receiver for about 300 pound which would support all the mentioned formatsI have found myself more times than enough now sitting down to watch a film and simply getting mute audio just because it is in dts hd or dts x and quite alot of the time this is when i have friends and family over so it isnt a good look for the sonos brand that it cant produce sound for these types of movies or tv showsit is somnething that could quite easily be achieved since yous went and enabled dts standard after not supporting it, i feel if yous want to be seen as the go to soundbars yous then have to make sure its the go to for audio formats also which currently it isnt dont get me wrong the sonos eco system and products are fant

I have a weird one. Is Sonos Radio HD Channel New Wave down? Every other channel I try works, but not that one. It’s one of my favorites, but it isn’t playing anything. Just wanted to see if it was just me or everyone. 

Its now 2023, about a year after the previous Arc Gen 2 query was posted and closed, so making a new one.  Any news/rumours/updates of an ETA? We thinking by end of this year or most likely 2024? 

I would like the Sonos ARC to get some sort of EQ adjustment also a way of manually changing the centre channel output volume. I find this to be very useful on other soundbar set ups. For me the ARCs weakness is the dialogue it can be too quiet and hard to hear voices, you then turn volume up and the overall sound is too loud, a way of manually adjusting this would be great.  Yes I have done triplet many time, used speech enhancement and latest software done many different adjustments and never been happy with it.so Sonos please give us this. 

Hi community, I’m looking for a sonos setup for my living room. The room is rather large (15x20 feet) with 10 feet high ceilings. I would mainly stream Spotify and watch Netflix/Apple tv, most of the usage will probably be music. I’m not looking for immersive surround that will come from rear speakers, rather an esthetic setup for daily use that will support watching movies as well.I was thinking about:2x Era 100  1x Sub Mini or 1x Sub (Gen3) My concerns are:Will this setup fill the room? How will the connection to the TV work? Is it via Bluetooth? Will I have lips sync issues between the TV and the speakers of this setup? Should I consider replacing the 2x Era 100 with a soundbar? which one? Thanks! 

Buonasera, vorrei acquistare il mio primo prodotto Sonos ( Era100) e volevo sapere se si può collegare alla TV via bluetooth senza bisogno della barra audio.Grazie 

 Are Sonos devices in a surround setup using dedicated wireless connections even if all devices are connected wired via Ethernet and WiFi is disabled in the settings?I am running a Sonos surround setup (arc, sub and two era300). All devices are connected to the home Gigabit network via dedicated Ethernet cables. WiFi is disabled in the Sub and Arc settings. The Eras are connected via Sonos Combo adapter. Everything works fine.Checking the web interface of the surround devices via port 1400 there are no ath0 entries in the ipconfig report.But I am still wondering if there is a wireless connection between the surround devices. Can someone from Sonos give a „official“ answer? 

I have the Arc, Sub and Era 300 connected to my LG for surround cinema sound, would I notice the difference if I added Sonos Amp with a second sub?I love watching movies as close to cinema sound i can get on Sonos. 

Hi All   I have a very quick and simple question: Can I SWITCH OFF the Wifi and Bluetooth PERMANENTLY from my Sonos One? I am keen on using Sonos One connected to my Router via a Ethernet cable and also because I want to reduce the EMF Radiation in my Flat.   Thanks in advance N

I would like music to start playing on three different speakers at the same time. Thought an alarm would be best, but, even though there is a grouped rooms option, it only goes off on one speaker. A few questions for you pros:What is the purpose of that “included grouped speakers” option if it does not play speakers grouped together? I have multiple groups, in which the same speakers are grouped. How does checking that option determine which of the speaker’s groups are triggered? Finally, if there is no way to make this work, would setting the same alarm (to Sirius XM) on multiple speakers seperately work?Thanks all!  D

Hi. I'm a Sonus system newbie and new to the forum as well. I'm just looking for a little advice on the best state to leave a Sonus system in when it's not being used. We have a new home theater  system consisting of an LG OLED tv, Sonos ARC, Sub & Era 100's for surround sound.My wife, or I, will very frequently use blue tooth headphones to watch tv so as not to disturber the other. In order to use the BT headphones I have disable both HDMI-CEC and eARC on the tv. With HDMI-CEC & eARC disabled the status LED on the Sub and Era's remain white as long as Sub Audio and Surround Audio are left enabled on the Sonos app. If I disable the Sub & Surround Audio on the Sonos app, the LED on both starts a slow green flash.I know a white LED means the device is powered and ready to use and the slow green flash just means the devise is disabled in the Sonos app. My question: is there a recommended state for the devices in when not in use? Does one state consume more power than the other

this could..i guess make some sense if i had the music was stored on a NAS or another PC on the network, but when i try to play locally stored Mp3 files from the very same PC, 80% of the time i get ‘an error occured the local>path>to>library>song.mp3 could tnot be found’. It gets even worse whe i try to play said music on the PC over network...but it does work 10% of the times. I reinstalled, reindexed, reset the router, firewall is fully allowing sonos service and client.

If I have the tv/sonos on all day by the evening I have to turn the volume up a lot.

I have an audio-technical AT-LP120-USB Direct-Drive Professional USB and Analog Turntable System. I’d like to find the correct Sonos component that will connect the turntable to my Sonos system. I have Sonos Immersive Set with Arc (Arc, sub and 2 Ones) for TV and streaming music audio in the living room; and Sonos Fives in our bedroom and den. The turntable (haven’t yet used) is on a shelf in the den, near power but not near the Sonos Five. I’m looking for a component that will allow the turntable to connect (and be an audio source) to the Sonos system via my WiFi network. The turntable has a cable with RCA-type L&R connectors and a female USB Type B socket. What is the best, and hopefully most economical, Sonos component that can connect the turntable output to my Sonos system via WiFi?

Hi - I’m planning a construction project in my house and part of it includes re-doing our TV area. It’s a small area - around 12’ x 8’. I’m thinking about doing a setup with an Arc, Sub, and 2 ceiling speakers for rear surround via AMP. I had a few questions about this setup.How would this zone be used if I want to listen to music on it instead of TV? Specifically w/ regards to the surrounds. Will the AMP for the surrounds and the SUB be linked to the ARC and act as one zone, whether for TV or music? Or is each component like a separate assignable room? I’m trying to figure out how to get this space to work best for both TV and music. How does the TV etc recognize the configuration for it’s output? Does it act like a 3.1 setup and use the source material mix? Or does it just come as a bitstream and Sonos does its own thing with the mix? If I need to have multiple inputs - i.e. a streamer, blu-ray, etc.. I assume they just all go into the TV and I use the TV inputs to switch back and fo

I’ve just received new speakers for my living room. 2 Era 100 and Sub Mini. Since before I have a ray connected to my TV because it turned out that the TV I bought a year ago had terrible sound. My use case for the new speakers is listening to music. Don’t care that much about surround sound for the TV but okey if it comes in the package without messing up sound quality for music.  When installing the new speakers it ended up as a surround set up with the ray sound bar. As default when playing music it mainly used the ray and the Era speakers as some kind of “mood managers”. Not at all my intention. I want Era as stereopairs preferably without the ray in the mix at all.   To improve the situation I’ve changed surround settings in two ways:Changed music setting to “Full” adjusted music level to +15It makes the system behave a bit more as expected and sound did improve, ray is still playing though. So I’m closer to what I’ve been after, but after playing around a bit with settings I’ve f

So how do that?

I have a spare connect:amo and am planning to use it to power some ceiling speakers in a bathroom (they will be the only speakers in the bathroom). Will the sonos sonance speakers work ok with the connect:amp? I believe I won’t be able to use trueplay with the connect:amp - how much does this matter with the sonance speakers. Would it make a huge big to upgrade from connect:amp to amp (an expence I would prefer to avoid if there is not much difference. Any replies/advice gratefully received.
