Really irritating that it seems only a Sonos line in adapter will work with my new Era 300 (how very Apple!) but absolutely infuriating that they don’t have any in stock and I can’t find them anywhere. How do I get hold of one, please?
Have 2 Sonos Ones that have worked well wirelessly for years. I have some devices in my house I prefer to hardwire and need more ports so added a network switch to the router. Now the speakers don’t work/connect. The Sonos speakers are the only wireless devices in the house that don’t work now. Spent over an hour on phone with Sonos, restarting, removing, reconnecting, etc. No success and they were unable to help me. Said to call my internet provider for help configuring the router settings (who wants to charge for support with no guarantee of success).Any suggestions for how to configure router settings?
New to the Sonos ecosystem so this may be a stupid question 🫣 have an Arc, sub gen 3, connected to 2 Era 100s as surrounds. Let’s say I’m watching a movie and accidentally touch the volume buttons on one Era 100, does that throw off the volume of just that one speaker or does it do nothing?
I’m thinking of buying a pair of Sonos Architecture speakers to use outdoors but I’m not comfortable with leaving them in the elements because the grills will eventually rust and the speakers will break down sooner so I plan to disconnect them and bring them in after use. Then I thought why not just spend a few more bucks and buy a pair of Play 5 which I’ll be able to use indoors and bring them outdoors when needed. My only concern with the Play 5 is if it rains while I’m using them outside they could get wet if I’m not able to detach them and bring them in fast enough. Will any amount of water penetration ruin the Play 5 or do they have some level of water resistance. Thanks.
I confirmed “Radiko” not in service.But Japanese customer want to use “Radiko.”Are there any plan to add “Radiko” in the future?

Hi allI am seriously considering buying the Arc, sub gen3 and 2 era3 speakers for a dolby atmos system. The only think keeping me from pushing the buy button is the price. At over £2500 it's not cheap. Has anyone on here bought these to make a atmos system, if so is it worth the outlay. Many thanks
Guys, it is time: TIME for you to get with it and offer some Sonos Widgets for your iOS and MacOS apps. Also, I should be able to control my Sonos system with my Apple Watch. The iOS and Mac apps are getting pretty long in the tooth and both need some love. Widgets would go a long way in both scenarios.If you need some help, I suggest you just go ahead and offer a cartoon bag of money to these projects and bring them in-house:Menu Bar Controller for Sonos:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/menu-bar-controller-for-sonos/id1357379892?mt=12Lyd:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1451243766Good luck!
I realize this is probably on Apple‘s end of things, but are we seriously stuck using the Sonos app to get Apple Music atmos audio? Kinda sucks we can’t cast Atmos songs to the Arc, in a similar fashion to the way that Spotify works. I know about AppleTV, but that’s not the most ideal. The Apple Music app seems to only allow Airplay.
One my friend is travelling from Houston to Pakistan and he is willing to bring Sonos era 300 stands pair, colour white. which i will purchase online and deliver to his address in US, the only problem i will face will be if my order is pushed back. His flight is on 29th of July. Can one confirm the status on Sonos era 300 stands pair in white colour?

I have a Sonos Beam and sub connected to my TV ; it works very well . tried adding a pair of SL 1’s but it thinks they are a separate system and I cannot group them with the beam. How do I rectify ?
I know Sonos says they only support 6 speakers when using Architectural series speakers, however, has anyone had success with 6 8ohm speakers connected to a Sonos Amp? If so kindly advise. I’m looking to setup 6 outdoor rock speakers which are 8ohm and wondering if it might work. I’m not looking to play them super loud and already limit the volume to 80% to prevent clipping on the current Connect: Amp that is powering 4 of them today. Thanks in advance!
from prior home, i have a gen 1 system including sonos connect amp that feeds my patio speakers. have moved to different home and would like to make the existing high quality speakers used for ceiling into sonos capability … do i need to get another connect amp? or is there an easier solution? i have heard bad stories about connecting non gen 1 components to gen 1 items … is that something to be concerned about??
I just realized that some time in the recent past the rooms/speakers starting switching their position in the Rooms view if you select or deselect them. It seems to me that it wants to keep the selected speakers at the top and the deselected ones at the bottom, but that is terrible behaviour. If I want to transfer from one room to another now the list gets jumbled several times, and I alwas have to rescan the list and see where the item is I am looking for.If you absolutely must have the selected one at the top, do it only after opening the view, so that the order is kept while the screen is open, and if I close it and reopen it it gets build anew, but like this is is simply confusing. For a minute I thought I was in the Spotify app, that’s how bad it was ;)
Hello, I have located a TV and Sonos beam in a separate room to the sonos amp and a HDMI matrix that connects to multiple HDMI input sources. These sources are connected to the HDMI matrix and the TV is one of the outputs that connect to the matrix over ethernet connection via the TV's HDMI ARC port.I'm wondering if I can connect the Beam to the Amp via ethernet in one of the Amp ports, connecting the other Amp port to the network. And then use the Amps HDMI port to connect with the Sonos converter to optical audio to connect to the matrix?My objective is to group the Beam and speakers connected to the amp together and have them play sound based on switched devices on the HDMI matrix, without any audio delay between the Beam and speakers.Many thanks for any help you can provide.

Question: Do I need “high end” wifi infrastructure for 21+ players? Background:I’ve been a Sonos advocate and avid user since the ZP-80 was launched in the UK. I now have 21players spread across an old four-bedroomed property playing mostly streaming services and line-in from a turntable.I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve switched between wired+sonos net and wi-fi installations. Neither has been particularly stable with players regularly disappearing, playback dropping out, long pauses adding players to groups etc.A few years ago I settled on a wi-fi setup as I’d rolled out a BT Whole Home wi-fi extender setup and had good wi-fi coverage in every room and a large chunk of the garden. Certainly everywhere I have a Sonos player. (Also, it’s not practical to wire more than two Sonos players without the kind of upheaval I’m not really up for).All players report “Good” or “Excellent” wifi connectivity in the Sonos app. The BT Wi-Fi discs are connected to a TP-Link Archer VR280
Hi,I’m looking at upgrading to the Era 300s for rear surrounds. I know that currently the center driver is disabled when used in this configuration.However, I spent quite awhile on the phone with Sonos support in the weeks after the Era launch trying to understand how the remainder of the drivers work (as surrounds) with various content. What I was told by Sonos support is starkly different from what I’m seeing posted on places like Sonos sub on Reddit.As a quick fact, some 5.1 content is mastered as 2Front 1Center 2Surround (side) LFE while others choose 2Front 1Center 2Rear LFE. This was the breakdown Sonos support gave as to how each audio format should be handled by the Era 300 (as rear surrounds): * Stereo content should be spread across the entire stereo field. So the center driver on the soundbar will be playing the centermost content on the spectrum while the drivers on the L (so all the drivers on the left of the soundbar plus the dual drivers inside & outside on the Era 3
My System Runs flawlessly when the “Associated Product” is a Wired Sonos Play Bar (Gen 1) wired as part of a 5.1 System.Regularly the “Associated Product” switches to a Play 1 (Gen1) on the Sonosmesh. This causes songs to skip to next track halfway through etc … all the regularly sonos issues. How Can I lock the “Associated Product” to a wired ethernet producted??
