On my new ERA 100 the voice services light is so dim as to be useless in a normally lit room. Support tells me this is not a defect. I also noticed that light will get brighter temporarily while I touch and hold the voice services icon. What’s that about?

HiFor playing music in a large kitchen diner (parties and high-quality listening) I’m considering buying a FIVE to sit on a shelf central on the long wall, then put a ONE SL and a ONE at the extreme sides of the room to create a wider sound field in the room (without the expense of 2x FIVES). (Note: I thought a ONE would be useful as it will have a mic for smart speaker purposes).Question: Can I set the ONE and ONE SL as a stereo pair, and have the FIVE playing in stereo to get this wide sound field?Would this work? 

Just got Beam gen 2, the effects and music is okay but the speech volume is very low when it comes to atmosUsing eARC.The LG Nano956NA speakers ( speech ) sounds much better than arc at volume level 20 - 30 while Beam sound 50 to 80.I m android user so dont have that trueplay options.I tried loudness enabled and disabled didnt see much difference,Speech enhancement is enabled.Bar is in bedroom so not even in a open space. Sadly i can only use TV spakers and HDMI arc individually to use tv speakers i need to switch sound  bar ro optical digial out adapterAny suggestions what i m doing wrong ?

I don’t think iti is fair to impose to the buyers of sonos speakers unsolicited advertising.It isn’t consistent with the idea that we have bought top of the line speakers.It isn’t consistent with proper customer care and… have you listened to the ads?In German and Italian they are unbelievably primitive.  Truly ugly stuff.I don’t think it is a money spinner for sonos. Just a stupid embarassment.

Currently use Sonos in rooms where I can easily access them.Am looking to mount new speakers about 8ft up in close to ceiling for a sunroom.  Although I can always get a ladder if there was an issue, ideally am looking to have these mounted and connected to power and then remote control them from Sonos App/remotely.Thoughts?  Recommendations?  2x Era 100 or 300 better than a single sound bar?Thanks in advance

I would like to listen to TV audio through my Sonos Port and other 4 Sonos Amps.  I currently have a surround sound receiver playing TV audio and the receiver is connected to the Sonos port.  I was told by Best Buy that the only way to do this is use a sonos sound bar but that defeats the purpose of the receiver / surround sound system.  In a perfect world I would be able to watch a television channel (perhaps a football game) on Directv and hear the sound throughout all of the Sonos amps in my home.

My sonos roam is making AN UNBEARABLE NOISE on random moment, i don’t turn it on anymore and i don’t plan to.The unit is in perfect condition, i am terribly disappointed. 

Good morning, I have a beam gen 1 with mini sub and two symfonisk ikea etagere in surround. I would like to exchange the beam gen1 for a sonos beam gen2 or arc to enjoy dolby atmos and truehd, is there much difference on the sound quality between dolby digital 5.1 and dolby digital plus, dolby digital true HD and atmos please? my config 55 inch tv Living room 30m² length 14 meters width 4 meter sofa distance from tv about 3 meters

Just purchased the arc for infront of our TV that is in a high ceiling living room.  I want something behind the couch; however the open floor plan/kitchen will limit me to ERA 100s.  There are however two inwall old speakers above the couch and I just saw the amp and inwall set up.  Can I combine the amp and arc?  Will that give a good surround sound?   plan for the subwoofer down the line at some point as well. 

Hello,How and where do I see which mail address my profile has been created with?Can I change the mail address if I want to?Thank you in advance. 

Hello -I’m moving to a new house that has the internet connection and router/wireless in a basement utility room.  As I recall, one of the Sonos components has to be hardwired into the router.  But, I don’t really want to put a speaker in a utility room.  What product do I use to connect to the router? Thanks,Todd

We plan to purchase Sonos Amp, if it will do what we need...  Our house came with a Russound SDB-6.1 speaker selector, wired to 6 in-ceiling single-speakers indoors and outside.  I have no idea brand, type, or specs of the speakers.We want to get rid of a stack of outdated equipment and get a simple solution to stream music and audio content from laptops, ipad, and/or phones.  Can we use a Sonos Amp attached to one of the 2 input ports?  We understand that we will still need to manually use the speaker selector to turn the 6 speakers on/off, and to adjust relative volume of one speaker to another.  That said, could we adjust the Sonos volume output remotely, and wouldn’t that translate (in layman’s terms) to “more or less sound going from Sonos into Russound, equals more or less sound going into every speaker”? Thanks for helping an audio-amateur!

Unique question this.I am thinking of purchasing a Spectrum Analyzer to bring some life to my home setup. I’d like to achieve the following:Connect my turntable (amp built in) to my Port, audio to be played through my various Sonos speakers Connect the output of my Port to a Spectrum Analyzer (the Spectrum Analyzer has RCA inputs) The Spectrum Analyzer to display the output signals from the turntable, and a different times the output of other Sonos audio services connected to my wider Sonos setup (i.e. Spotify)  Is this workable? Could the Port support such a thing? Basically outputting the sound from my turntable or other Sonos audio services to a Spectrum Analyzer all via the Port’s output cable?

Bonjour je remarque que l’enceinte Sonos se déconnecte souvent du routeur wifi, est ce que c’est possible d’intégré dans l’enceinte un accès point comme ça on dépend plus de la distance pour se connecté directement au système Sonos.Merci

If you have Wi-Fi connection can you connect pair of roams in stereo mode with Bluetooth source like Samsung freestyle projector? And since roams need to be in bt mode to recive signal from projector that doesn’t unable em to work in Wi-Fi as condition for stereo mode? Thx in adv

If I stereo pair a One and a OneSL, will the pair then work as a pair with Google Assistant? Or will only one of the speakers work? Want to hear Spotify in stereo via Google Assistant, but worried it won’t work.

Hi, I recently added some music to my plex server. When I try to play it via the Sonos Plex integration, I only get “Unable to play xy - The connection to Plex was lost”. This only affects the newly added music - the “old” one just works fine (I added some music a couple of days before I did the update to 15.4 - this one works). Plex itself works, I can play the newly added music via the Plex apps.Just before I did the update to 15.4 I didn’t had those issues.After that I tried to:upgrade the server to the newest version reauthorize the plex integration in Sonos Switched off all Sonos devices for a few minutesnothing helped so far.Does anyone have similar issues or any idea? It would really help me to track down the issue.

I have a 17 year old Pro-Ject Debut SE which I hooked up to a pair of Fives plus a Sub last year. I was very happy with the sound but recently I've made some upgrades to the turntable. Main one being a much better cartridge - the Ortofon MM Blue. It sounds so much better and really makes the Fives and Sub shine. So well worth doing if you love your vinyl. It easily sounds on a par with hi-res streaming now.  

Has the Sonos One SL got the same increased memory and faster processor present in the Sonos One Voice Version Generation 2? Is it best to stereo pair a Sonos One SL with a Sonos One Voice speaker - or stereo pair two Sonos One Voice Speakers together? Is the Sonos One SL being discontinued?

Hi everyone,I am new in this community and i would ask you, that are more expert than me, how to create a system audio, using sonos, for a restaurant that has multiple room and external space.This is the structure:External space (200mq) ----- main hall (150mq) ---- secondary hall (50mq)I was thinking to put a Sonos Move in the external space, in the middle of the space (no cable).Two Sonos ONE SL in the main hall and a sonos one SL in the secondary hall.Between the external speaker and the main hall’s speaker will be more than 30m, same with the one in the secondary hall.I would like to play the same music in all the spaces.The audio source can be in the main hall.Can i group, using my WIFI, all the devices and play the same music? (the source can be a phone or must to be connected to spotify?)In case the WIFI is not working, can i connect the device between them using some chain link system, maybe based on bluetooth or wlan?Thanks 

Do I go with a pair of Play:3 or pair of one sl? Looking for some advice or opinions on which is best when paired with a playbar and sub . Thanks in advance ! 😎

sonos has become utterly useless as a playback service for amazon music.songs stop in the middle of playback - error message   the song is not encoded correctly.or sonos just drops the link to amazon - error message  the connection to Amazon Music was lostI get these messages not one or twice a day but dozens.  I have asked tech support for help on these for years now.I gather since their developers refuse to fix this is it is a sonos/google doesn’t want to play well with amazon.Wish I had not invested in as many speakers or I would abandon sonos immediately.their speakers would be best suited for small boat anchors.   

Will it be possible to use a generic USB-C to Ethernet adapter with the new Era speakers? That’s instead of the $39 Sonos adapter. Cheers! 

I have an LG UK6090PUA TV connected to a Gen 2 Beam, along with a Gen 3 Sub and two One SLs for surrounds. The setup sounds great for movies and TV and also for music played through the Sonos app. Music played through the TV, however, sounds downright awful. Like really, really bad — totally unlistenable, which is a real shame because I have a great music video collection that I would love to have playing in the background when hosting company.I’ve downloaded a bunch of open-license music videos from the internet and extracted the audio for listening only, and I’ve got both the MOV video and MP3 audio versions in my media library. It’s the same exact audio stream for both the videos and the audio files (16-bit 44.1kHz stereo), and having the same audio stream in both formats provides a clear example of just how stark the contrast is.A song played through the Sonos app on my phone sounds great, with all speakers playing at appropriate volume levels and the stereo signal split appropriat

What would you use for an 12 by 18 screened in porch?  I was thinking Era 300.
