I am using a Sonos Connect Amp to power a pair of outdoor speakers.  I added a second pair and it seemed to me there wasn’t enough power to drive al 4 without distortion.  So I purchased a small digital amp to power the other two without first thinking...can I do that?  I use external amps with the Sonos Connect to power several speakers, but haven’t tried it with the Sonos Connect Amp. I assume it’s fine...but thought I’d ask! Thx!

Dear all I am looking for a Sonos alexia someone knows where l can get one cheep if possible

I have an Apple TV 4K, and I currently have a Sonos Beam. my LG TV supports eArc, but the TV does not support Dolby Atmos. If I get the Sonos Arc, will the Dolby Atmos sound from the Apple TV pass through the TV, or does the TV need to support Atmos for that to work? I only play video content from the Apple TV, so I’m not going to upgrade the TV.

I have a room that has a lot of background noise from a fan that kicks on and off (that cannot be eliminated). My TV is in the front of the room and I current have a Sonos Beam connected to the TV. The problem is you cannot hear the TV voices in the back of the room without turning the volume way up. The voices get drowned out by the fan. I’m trying to get a setup where I have a soundbar in the front of the room and another speaker in the back of the room both playing the same TV sound.My TV installers, BestBuy, and Walmart all indicated that I could do this by adding a Sonos One and setting it up as stereo. I have tried that and I cannot seem to get the Sonos One to play any of the TV sounds.Has anyone else figured out a solution to this? Is it possible to the bean and one to be in stereo (not surround)? Any recommendations?

Hello!I am trying to figure out how to run the ARC Sound bar and home theater set up completely wirelessly without losing the dolby atmos feature. The current situation is as followsWe just moved and brought our previous home theater components with us. The system consists of a sony vw 285ES projector.. marantz sr7008 av receiver... 110'' screen... KEF Q series 7.1 speakers/subwoofer... blurry player/ xbox/ apple tv... logitech universal remote.The new house has a smaller sheetrock wall/ceiling finished room in its basement with difficult access to run wires in the walls. So I am considering replacing the speakers in this set up with the ARC Sound bar and wireless home theater set up so that I dont have to run the speaker/ HDMI wires (other than one to the projector for video) but can still switch between the different components easily and can place my receiver towards the back of the room near the projector (shorter HDMI and can be hidden much better) but dont want to lose the atmos

Just wanted to let you Sonos know that I used to be a great ambassador for your products - I have five.  Since the forced upgrade where half my products no longer work, or if they do I have to use different controllers for each, I’m embarrassed to admit I was ever a fan.  Your business is a disgrace.

Hi alli have the arc with 2 surrounds (sonos ones) and a sub (gen 2)will music play in Dolby atmos through all these or just the arc?also what about movies?

I recently installed a Beam and 2 ones as a tv surround system.I already had a Play 3.Have just added Google Assistant for voice control.All works great except I cannot turn my tv on and off with voice control.New Phillips 49 PUS with HDMI ARC port.Assume a setting somewhere but would appreciate advise.Thanks.

Hi, I just bought an Arc but it is not for a TV but for a videoprojector. Do you think it is possible to put it on the top ? I can’t put it on the bottom Here is a picture, in yellow the position for the Sonos Arc. Do you think it will be acceptable ? Nice day !  

Am I right I understanding that there is a long standing problem with LG TVs and the Playbar when it comes to lip sync?  The last time I checked on this there was no fix and LG were unlikely to do anything about it.  Does anyone had any recommendations on TVs that you are using that have good lip sync? 

We installed our new Sonos arc and connected it with the recommended HDMI arc connection and included cable to a newer Vizio TV (M507-G1) that is up-to-date on firmware. When watching TV the audio drops out, the volume controls from the TV and Roku remotes are sluggish and sporadic, the audio quality is terrible and the video occasionally will cut out. We hard-reset everything, disconnected, reconnected, chatted with Sonos support, worked through all of the recommendations, opened a support ticked, submitted diagnostics, and ended at a roadblock where the customer support agent suggested we have to find another TV to test it with as the only possible solution.  That’s not a realistic solution for us.  The unit does work fine with streaming music and with the optical cable connection, but obviously this is not ideal or really an acceptable downgrade for a premium product that is named for the connection it is supposed to function with. I read through similar strings of conversation on S

At the lowest volume level, my pair of Sonos One SL’s are still too loud for late night listening for some types of music. 

Guys..I’m about to purchase a Connect-Amp with a manufacture date of 2015 Aug. Seller is adamant that i’ts a gen 2 as he has installed the upgrades for S2, however it has a mute button. I’ve read that the mute button is gen 1. Does any one have a gen 2 connect amp with a mute button?

Hello! I am looking for some help with a challenge I currently have.The end result I would like to achieve is having a record player that’s capable of being listened to through the house. We are an apple house so all components support AirPlay 2, presently.Currently the system consists of two independent Sonos Amp’s that drive a pair of in-ceiling speakers each. Additionally there is a Denon AVR-X4700H that drives the surround system.If I am understanding correctly the Sonos Port (which is OOO until late November) SHOULD be able to stream “wirelessly” to any Sonos targets which id assume includes the stand alones and amps. Can it stream many at once?More curiously can it both take advantage of streaming to sonos targets AND physically to the Denon via the audio out ports?Last.. am I over complicating things? Is there a vinyl player out there that would make this all work much better.

Hi everyone, I bought an Arc on Sonos.com and it “shipped” on 6/29 but since then FedEx has been stuck on Shipment Information Sent to FedEx. Contacted Sonos last week and was told to just wait. But was just wondering if anyone else had hit this in the past? 2 weeks seems like a really long time for something that is ‘in stock’ 

How much heat does the Sonos Amp develop?

Hello, I’m in a bit of a stand still on what to buy. Originally I wanted to get the Sonos out door speakers however the amp is sold out and I need them ASAP. (One of my questions with this is; with the Sonos amp and outdoor speakers, can they all be connected to my complete Sonos wireless home system(ark/ one/ one/ sub)? To be able to play the same music inside and outside at the same time?)  second option is getting 2 sonos moves. Now with this, is it worth it? Or should I wait for the amp and outdoor speakers? I also have the same question with this- can I link all the sonos equipment inside and outside to play the same music with the 2 sonos moves?  last question I will be putting a tv outside. How can I connect my tv to the sonos outdoor speakers if I do end up going that route? I already found out the Sonos move cannot be connected to a tv. 

Hi, I am purchasing a new LG G1 and have a setup that connects in ceiling speakers to a G1 connect:amp. From my research is it correct that there is now way of passing the HDMI signal from the TV to the connect:amp. Is there any solution using the G1 device or is the only way to connect through a new AMP and HDMI connection?

Are these speakers powerful? For 2 for a 1000 bucks they better be. My indoor system is soundbar sub 2 3 s and 8 play 1 s

Been using the Sonos arc for about 6months connected to an LG CX via eArc without issue (other than only getting a + and - symbol when controlling the volume)  today though the tv is recognising that the volume is being changed but the speaker isn’t doing anything, it will change via the app but not with either the sky or magic remote. 

HiI have a Sonos “Playbar” & “Sub (Gen 2)” bought at end of 2018I have them connected to my TV as a home theatre system.(Also have the New 2021 Apple TV 4K)I find the volume (tried and tested all settings) to be not loud enough for me to enjoy the action flicks.I was thinking of adding 2 x Sonos 5 speakers (whichGen can I add)to the home theatre setup. Is that possible ?Also what other speaker options do I have ?Thanks
