I thought I would give Sonos Radio a goI am into Soundtrack/Cine/Film music but cannot find any stations that suit this genre Any suggestions?

This is very hard info to find. I am looking to determine:1. Best Dolby Atmos experience2. Minimal touching of the equipment settings/rebooting/finding info on audioholic web sites for seamless operation.Price difference between the two extractors is significant. I am leaning in the OREI direction for the price.My setup:LG OLED TV with Google Chromecast (to HDMI Port)Arc Ultra2 Era 300’s as Surrounds Connection: Do I simply connect the the TV HDMI Arc port to the box?I do not have a firestick or alexa or gaming system.I just want to watch 4k TV with Dolby Atmos (whatever is served via the Chromecast).Thank you.

I have a large living room and am biting the bullet and moving away from a surround sound receiver setup with a sub to use Sonos speakers.   i plan on buying an Arc , with a sub and two surround speakers.   First question is if i’m paying over $2K for the setup should i go ahead and pay $100 for the Arc Ultra (inclined to do so) .  Next question is a bit tougher.  I’m a senior citizen  I enjoy music but rarely listen to music through my TV setup.  The speakers will be used 99% of the time to stream TV shows and movies.  As best i can tell the Era300 speakers are terrific but may not be worth the extra $$ for my intended use of them  ie surround sound.  I do like a full room sound when watching movies but I suspect the Era100 will be more than adequate (and likely a big improvement over my existing setup).  My wife is more concerned with how many remotes she will have to master and whether we can get rid of massive amounts of wiring behind the equipment ?Trust the answer yes to both :) 

Available app update as of November 4 but the release notes in the app store are exactly the same as 80.11.39 and the Sonos release note site hasn't updated yet. No noticed changes in user interface on iOS 18.1. No associated hardware update. Nothing for the Ace.What's the point? 

Hi there, I understand there is an option to return my sonos arc, pay 100 euro’s more and get the new sonos Arc ultra. A similar thing can be done with the new sub.I have purchased my sonos Arc 2 years ago and I did not buy it directly from Sonos but from a third party in Slovakia. My products are registered however in the sonos page.Am I eligible to return and just pay the difference between the new and old?I would really hope so but if that is the case how would I go about doing so considering my location?Thank you

Hi. I have 4 tourist rentals all connected to the same wifi network. I have set up 4 Era 100’s using this network. At the moment, if one guest uses the Era 100 in their rental, the music is also played in the other rental properties. Clearly my other guests do not want to hear each others music! If I disable the wifi on each speaker, can the guests still play music via Bluetooth only? Or is wifi mandatory?

Sonos will lose market share if they don't make their selections for a  diverse audience. After spending several hundred dollars for Sonos speakers I am finding their audio selection very limited.  These are my speakers, I should be able to listen to more than the Sonos limited selection. For example adding a podcast like Wondery. I am researching other systems. 

Until the beginning of this week my pair of Era 100's were producing perfect surround sound when installed with a Beam and using the S1 app. A few days ago I swapped out the Beam for an Arc Ultra and also updated the Sonos app. Now the Era's are almost silent. The new app has removed the means of controlling the sound level for the Era's. I have EQ adjustments set to loud. I've done a trueplay on all. They all display a stable white light. Should I revert to the S1 app? Will that work with the Ultra?

Hi- for about a week now, when I play a playlist it will play the same song on repeat, move randomly to another, play that repeatedly and over and over again. Any suggestions? The queue only shows the one song that it’s currently repeating 

I’ve lost connection with my play and I cannot find it again

I already own the gen 1 beam and 1st gen play one currently been used as a surround sound setup….my question is if I bought a pair of era 100 could I add these to the existing setup so essentially having 5 speakers as a surround sound..The reason I would like to add these era is to connect my Bluetooth turntable which I know would only connect to the 2 era’s, or would I have to just replace the ones with the eras if so would this work as surround sound when needed the connect to the turntable when needed…thanks

HiI currently have a Sonos Arc and sub gen 3, soon I will be getting an ultra to pair with my gen 3 sub.My question is do I need to reset the gen 3 sub, or is it fine just removing the sub from my Sonos Arc in the app and then resetting the Sonos Arc?Just not sure if the gen 3 requires a full reset to pair with my new arc ultra?Thank you

I’m hoping someone can help!I have just purchased the new Sonos ARC Ultra (Previously had the Ray). It works perfectly when i connect spotify, the sound is great.The issue I have, is that when i turn my Sky Q on, it disconnects the sound from the Sonos Arc to use the TV Speaker (Samsung). The setting dissapears to use the HDMI ARC function so i’m unable to change. Very frustrating and i have tried multiple troubleshooting options but still no luck! It worked fine with the Ray Any help, would be much appreciated! I’m tempted to return my new Arc Ultra...

Hi, I have a number of Sonos Playbars (5) around the house, several Connect Amps and 1 Sonos Arc but because the Connect Amps are hardly used, I turn the power off to them, especially overnight, but because of this, I’m worried these devices (which aren’t left on all the time, especially the Connect Amps) aren’t being updated with the latest Sonos updates.  So, in short, how can I determine if each of my Sonos devices has the latest updates, or otherwise?

Hi, As the title says, my six speakers seem to be playing a different volumes. Some play loud, some play very quiet. Is there a way for me to set them all or to individually adjust the volumes of each speaker? Or perhaps was there something wrong I did during installation? To give context, I have the 6.1 mag system set up across my backyard which runs about 50 ft across. With the connecting sub in the center of that 50 ft.

I am running a 2 year old Arc with a Sub gen 3 and an Amp powering Klipsch 8” wall speakers in a vaulted ceiling configuration as surrounds (they work well). I can afford an Ultra, keeping the Sub and the Amp. Or I can retain my current Arc and purchase a pair of Era 300s and stands. My screen is a 65” Bravia approx 12 feet from the couch. it is mounted on my fireplace mantle with my Arc underneath. Any height signals only need to travel approx 3 feet before hitting the ceiling. The vaulted ceiling rises from 8 feet to about 11 feet, bisecting my living room from left to right, then back down to 8 feet. It is my understanding that this divide will partially defeat the Atmos effect.So which choice is best? Ultra/sub 3 with Klipsch? Or existing Arc/sub 3 with era 300s? The 300s would encounter the same ceiling vault from the opposite direction.Thanks. 

Am considering Arc Ultra, my first foray into sound bars, and wondering if this new product is worth the hype?

Newbie to Sonos.  Before connecting my new Sonos system to the TV  I have set up the ARC soundbar, connected two One SL speakers as surround and the mini sub.  They are operating as one unit playing music for now. I plan on connect the system to my Samsung OLED tv.  I also utilize a Fire TV Cube that manages the entire setup.  My question’s this.  The Sonos soundbar will be connected to the tv via EARC.  Typically, the Fire TV Cube has an extensive setup procedure to manage all devices.  Is there anything else I have to do on the Sonos side to ensure a successful connection before I run the Fire TV Cube setup?

What is the voltage coming out the subwoofer out on the Sonos amp?

I want to request a move of one system setting “Nearby System” to the first page after starting Sonos and not connecting.  I travel between several locations a few times a week. Each time, I open Sonos and get a “No Products Found” message with a CTA to go to system settings. I click on it and then when system setting loads, I have to scroll down to see “Nearby System” to (re)join the system again. My change would eliminate the extra clicks and poor UX.    

Hello all!Building a house, and in our main family room (not a great room, but a separate space for TV and hanging out), I want to have a good theatre system.But, I (and definitely my wife), don’t want to have Era 300’s sitting on stands.  She couldn’t handle that, aesthetically.So, what is my best option for a Surround Sound system?  Is Atmos possible without Era 300s?  I could possibly mount Era300s on the wall, but I know she won’t like that either.I would prefer doing ceiling speakers, an amp (or two), combined with an Arc Ultra and Sub.  What would you recommend?

HiI just reset my Sonos Arc, I have logged into my Sonos account on the website and it still shows under “system”Will this disappear eventually? I plan to gift the the arc so don't want it showing under my Sonos account, is there anything else I need to do or should it vanish eventually?Sorry wasn't sure where to post this.Thank you

My Sonos One speaker is trying to access my PC - I had a message from Norton that the device at an IP on my network assigned to the Sonos One was trying to connect to <program> on the PC on UDP port 1900. I unplugged the Sonos One.Any ideas why the Sonos One would try to do this? The PC has never connected to the speaker, and Bluetooth on the PC is turned off.

Its a very complicated product!There is no Bluetooth.I really dont understand how to upload music to sonos?I down watch t.v.So now my only thing that I need to listen is to sonos radio?Its so disappointing! I weist a lot of money to pay for this 😞. What is my options exept your radio? *My product is sonos beam 2I wanna listen to music from my country.

The latest update has truly messed up my system. The problem I'm experiencing now is that I have a beam and to play ones connected as surround sound. The play ones are connected however no sound comes out of them. When I check the app the enable Wi-Fi and the disabled Wi-Fi selections are grayed out. I'm sure that the play ones need to be enabled but that option has been taken away. How can I get this back. Quickly hopefully!
