Given the Arc’s support for Dolby Atmos and having added support for two subs I would like to know if Sonos is going to add support for more surround speakers to the app that could be used as either front surrounds or height surrounds. My room situation is such that my left and right walls are too far away from the Arc for sufficient bounce. I would really like to add an additional pair of front surrounds to fill that void.

My TV: Samsung un40h5003afStreaming Box: Mi Box 3My room: It's a fairly large room (25x15 feet) though I don't need to fill it all (neighbors). The TV and the couch are about 10 feet apart. The TV has 2 HDMI ports (one used for the Mi Box, the other says “HDMI/DVI” but I’ve had an Xbox on it with success in the past) and an optical out (no ARC). The spec says that it supports DTS digital output, Dolby Digital Plus output, Dolby Pulse output.The manual [1] says “The SPDIF (Sony Philips Digital InterFace) outputs an uncompressed digital audio signal when you connect the digital audio jack on the back of the TV to a digital audio in jack on a receiver or home theater. Audio Format: You can select the Digital Audio output (SPDIF) format. The available Digital Audio output format may differ depending on the input source. ✎ By connecting the TV to a receiver or home theater with Dolby Digital and 5.1ch speakers and selecting Dolby Digital, you can maximize your interactive 3D sound experienc

Hi, How much is Spotify premium?

Can someone direct me to a good overview of the S2 app?

This is 3 questions in 1 post. Can I keep my old products (or sell them or give them to family?) when taking advantage of the upgrade or do I need to send them back in order to take advantage of the offer?If selling/giving away, do I just do a factory reset? Do I then need to dis-associate them from my account?Is the Sonos Boost mandatory if moving to S2?

How can I take care of the battery in my Sonos Move if I don't move it much from its charging base? I leave her connected all the time? turned it off or what can I do to take care of its battery?

Hello everyone we are building a new home and I want to setup a home theatre there. local hifi store is suggesting a traditional projector/screen w sound system w receiver.I am looking more into a system consisting Arc+ sub gen3 + 2 in ceiling speakers (w Sonos amp)+ 2 one SLs to have a truly immersive atmos experience. Now my question to the community is…. has anyone else done it? If yes is it worth it? Or it’s too much having in ceiling speakers? if it’s worth it, can I please request a design documentation that I can provide my local hifi guy to work on and create this system.Any help will be highly appreciated.Thanks in advance Ravioli

Hi there, I am designing a home expansion to create a Family room and a Terrace. In the  Family room I am considering a sonos arc, sonos sub and 2 One’s for surround.  For the terrace, two passive outdoor speakers powered by a Sonos Amp. My question is: can I pair the Sonos Sub with the Amp wirelessly (moving the Sub outside of course) when I am in the Terrace to enjoy the music in stereo from the outdoor speakers with the sub through the app? 

Hi,I am considering buying a Sonos ARC however i have a query related to compatibility issues with this soundbar and my TV.I own a 2018 Panasonic OLED TX65FZ802B which has HDMI ARC only. However when i watch movies on Netflix, Disney + and Prime using my Amazon Fire Stick 4k, i notice that the information shows up on the TV for a few seconds that it is receiving Dolby Digital Plus (DD+) which from reading some articles on the net is a compressed version of Atmos. So essentially i’m looking for advice to confirm if the Sonos ARC would provide an Atmos audio signal using DD+ through this TV? info online is very scarce about this subject.Any advice would be much appreciated

Having purchased the new potable Roam speaker are there any plans to allow the Sonos app to work using cellular data when away from the home. 

Feature Request: while in the EQ settings, ie bass, treble, sub audio…. I think it would be a nice feature to have the ability to press on the + and - buttons at the far ends of the settings rather than “eyeball” those settings via “press and slide”. You can do it with the main volume settings - albeit by tapping along on the volume line, but not using the actual plus or minus “buttons”. I wish those + and - buttons were actual buttons, across the app! It’s simply counter intuitive as it is now.

Hello,I recently purchased two Sonos/Ikea Symfonisk speakers. I fully expected them to work with my setup of chromecast/projector. I was mistaken and am now looking for a solution to this issue. I’m loving the Sonos sound so I really want to make this work and I’m hoping anyone can tell me if the solution I have in mind would work, or perhaps if anyone has another solution that would work.My project is an ‘old’ Optoma HD141x and I’m using an, I believe, 2nd gen Chromecast (if that matters).My projector doesn’t have HDMI ARC or optical so a Beam or Arc is no solution sadly I think. I’m wondering if using a Sonos Five or a Sonos Port would work with line in on my projector and grouping the Five/Port with my two Symfonisk speakers?Thanks in advance. 

Do the one sl speakers need to be placed behind where people are seating?  My room is limited I can place one speaker parallel about 2 feet from the speaker that is right next the couch.  The other speaker i would place 6 foot away and 4 foot in front of the couch.  Would this still work well in an Arc/sub/one sl surround confg?

I have the Beam connected to a brand new Sony UHD TV… it’s fantastic, but the volume increases and decreases in increments of two, regardless of whether I use the TV or Sky remote control. I’d like it to increase and decrease in single increments ideally… can this be adjusted?

I bought the MOVE to use as a sound source for when we have outdoor movies however we’ve been really frustrated to find out that when you airplay the sound or bluetooth the sound from a movie played on a MacBook Air the sound from the MOVE is at 50% of what it typically would be if you were playing music directly from the app.  I called SONOS & they have no idea why it does this.  Very frustrating because the MOVE could be ideal for this if it worked at it’s typical volume.

Can I group my Move and Roam in bluetooth?

I’m having some very annoying issues using my Samsung One Remote from a Samsung Frame 2020 TV with the Arc. It worked perfectly basically out of the box for the first 3 months and now all of a sudden the Samsung remote won’t change the volume for the Arc. When pressing the volume up or down it will still display the (HDMI-eArc) notification on the TV but no + or - signs and doesn’t adjust the volume. I’ve seen threads suggesting to go to the universal remote settings and add a new home theater device as Panasonic, that’s been hit or miss for me and when it does work it’s only been for about 24 hours then I’d have to set it up again. I’m just looking to get the remote working how it worked out of the box on day 1. The Arc is connected via HDMI to the eArc input on the Samsung Frame. Hopefully someone has some ideas. Thanks.

Do anyone know the lithium Jonbattery size in a Sonos Move. Traveling from Sweden by air. Is  it allowed to have the speaker in the hand luggage?

I have a new Samsung NEO 8k tv and connected a new Arc to it using the HDMI/Arc port. The audio works but is several milliseconds behind the video. I’ve noticed that I can use the Sonos software to delay the audio which, as expected, makes matters worse. The tv also seems to have a digital audio delay - a slider bar that defaults to 100. There is nothing available in the tv documentation saying what the 100 is or whether sliding it left or right increases the delay. I have tried moving the slider to both extremes and honestly saw no noticeable difference.  I have seen numerous articles about different audio formats that can be processed faster, but let’s face it, we pay a premium for the arc to get Dolby Atmos sound.  I also read an article suggesting different HDMI cables can make a difference  I will give that a try but not sure I am buying that one.Has anyone experienced this and can suggest a fix?  Thanks!

My setup is an Apple TV 4K 2021 version with an optima UHD50 4K projector, 2 homepods in stereo setup with Dolby atmos and wirelessly connecting to a sonos beam and sub via airplay 2.    On the previous gen Apple TV 4K I was able to use my stereo homepods as the default speakers and then select the sonos beam and sub through the Audio menu of the streaming content.  However the newest version creates issues whereby when I use the homepods as the default speakers it doesn’t allow me to add the sonos beam and sub like before.    I called sonos and they said it isn’t an issue on their end because when I select just the sonos beam and sub for the sound and remove the homepods the sound works.  I also contacted Apple support but they indicated that there might be a new kind of spatial sound update that may conflict with the sonos beam.     I have tried to connect the Apple TV to a hdmi splitter and use optical cable directly to the sonos beam but these splitters reduce the quality of the vi

Why can’t I go backwards using Flow  in Deezer in the Sonos Environment (App). If the function is available on Deezer why is not availble in the Sonos app? Can we get this fixed?

Hello,Does anyone know if the Sonos Beam uses the auto lip sync protocol over ARC. If i understand correctly, the protocol is only mandatory in HDMI 2.1/eARC, but companies can choose to support it over ARC if they want. I’m keen to know because I have some minor lip sync issues with my 2017 Apple TV 4K, LG B9 and Sonos Beam surround setup. If the Beam does use auto lip sync then im probably experiencing these problems because the Apple TV doesn't support the feature (apparently all devices in the chain need to support the feature for it to work). As such, I may upgrade to the new 2021 Apple TV 4K since that has HDMI 2.1 and im hoping there’ll finally be an unbroken chain that fully supports the HDMI automatic lip sync feature. Many thanks.

We have had the poor experience (many times) of grouping a room only to blast our ears out. Our Living Room has Bar/Sub/One/One and we connect it through our entertainment center.  There are various volume controls at play and sometimes the Sonos Volume in the Living Room is left fairly high. The next morning… we are playing music through a One in a different room and we decide to group the Living Room… with volume still high, music is Very loud and possibly damaging to a person sitting in there.   Questions:  Are there any settings that would reset volume to something like 10% on any newly grouped room?  Or even any settings that would allow volume limits based on Input?  Our entertainment center is generally quiet, our turntable (via Sonos Port) is really quiet, Music is REALLY LOUD. I have a sizable investment in Sonos speakers but I am finding it difficult to manage all the various volume levels across my 7 rooms.  It seems unreasonable that a user would need to visit every room an

Hi I have a sonos beam, sub, and 2 sonos 1 surround speakers in my cinema room.  I am just having my back garden renovated and what to set up a outdoor speaker in my pergola area. What is the best option and can I connect it to my indoor system.  Regards Ian
