Hello, For two weeks now I am the proud owner of a Samsung Q95T TVWhen I installed the Sonos playbar to work with the Samsung One remote I followed the following instructions → https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3444?language=en_USThis worked like a charm. However suddenly today the One remote no longer communicated with the Playbar, no matter what I tried (followed the instructions again , did a hard reset of my playbar etc. ) nothing worked. After browsing through the community I found a workaround (Select Samsung as home cinema brand). I am nit-picking here but what I do not like is when I now press volume up/down it says Samsung instead of Sonos and of course I can perfectly live with itBut I just want to know Why do I need to select Samsung as brand to get my Sonos to work. ? --------- Workaround ----------Instructions on Samsung TV:Go to Settings -> Universal Remote -> New DeviceSelect Device Type: Home Theatre SystemSelect Brand: Samsung (instead of Sonos)Select Home Cin
So somehow playing music from iOS Music (and Classical) app through iPhone built-in speakers is giving you an “Atmos” playback experience but playing it through AirPlay on a Sonos Arc and 2 x Era 300 rear speaker array is giving you Lossless?
I have a home with 5 zones of wired speakers, each zone have a wall mounted volume control, all speaker wire goes back to the same location. I want to be able to stream music over all zones or some of the zones and would like to connect TV audio to one of the zones. Is this something that Sonos can do and if so what equipment do I need. The music stream would come from my ipad or phone. Thank you

I think I have a new idea as to why sone Roam 2s are not charging. Mine has the same problem I tried quite an assortment of chargers and cables. I also did the long press reset suggestion multiple times. All to no avail. In the evening I sometimes got intermittent charging with USB-C (charge for 5 minutes, then stop for an hour, repeat). The only variable that changed when I got the intermittent charging was room temp. So I thought, what if the battery temperature sensor is bad or miscalibrated. Since it protects the battery from overheating, it may be shutting it off at too low a temperature, such as at room temp (80 in my house during summer).So I put it on my weakest Qi charger (which never charged it at all) and put it in the fridge overnight. Voila! it went all the way to 100%. This was repeatable. I’d move it outside, and while on the charger, it would discharge at 10% an hour. Back into the fridge, and perfect chargingSo try it in the fridge to see if my case is a o
Odd one here. I create a new album every year from Proms concert mp3s and store them in an album named “Proms (yyyy)”.Time was when I clicked on the album name when I searched for “Proms” under albums it would list all the tracks. Now on all those albums I get no songs (tracks listed). I can find them if I search the track individually and they play. I am getting this on the Mac controller, iPhone app and Sonophone app too. But other albums I’ve recently ripped eg “This is where I came in” by the Bee Gees shows the tracks fine if I search via albums and then click that one Really odd Any ideas gratefully explored!
I am building a patio that will house 2 TV’s (most likely Samsung), and the wall are open so I can still run all the cables I need to make the system work. How do I set up/connect 2 tv's to one sound bar (sonos arc), one sub, and additional speakers?
I have a Beam S2 hooked via HDMI to my C3 LG OLED TV via the eArc port on the LG TV. I have a DirecTV Genie mini hooked via HDMI to port 1 on the LG and Apple TV hooked via HDMI to port 4 on the TV. Months ago, I programmed the DirecTV remote to work with the Beam and the LG TV. All worked as desired with the DirecTV remote controlling the volume of the Beam directly (meaning, not changing the TV’s volume per se). This allowed me to change channels on the DirecTV Genie as well as control volume as well as turning the TV off & on. Suddenly two days ago, when trying to raise the volume via the DirecTV remote, the Beam would raise it the volume to the maximum after a delay. Trying to lower the volume using the DirecTV remote would, after a delay, slide the volume all the way off (not muted, just set all the way down). I have tried reprogramming the remote, resetting the Beam, the TV and the Genie, trying a new DirecTV remote I happened to have, checked firmware and all that via
Hello everyone, I currently have 2 Era 300, 1 Arc soundbar, and 1 Sub Gen3. I want to improve my system. It seems that I can add a second sub, but I would like to know if it is possible to go further, for example by adding 2 Era 300 in the front or 2 Sonos Five. However, I can't find this information anywhere. What is the limit on the number of speakers for a home cinema?Sorry for my English, it's not my native language :)
A thread here, “Show the Composer tag on the Now Playing screen,” started 11 years ago and was closed 4 years ago. Scores of users pleaded for composer information, essential for classical music and other genres, but Sonos didn’t add Composer to the Now Playing screen and afaik didn’t respond.I’m making the same request but for related Sonos controller screens: track lists (like album listings or Queue) and Song Info. For example, here’s a screenshot of the Song Info for a track on a classical compilation album. The composer, Stravinsky, isn’t shown anywhere in Sonos but the information is stored in the library: if I go to Composers and choose Stravinsky this album and track are listed.The only way I’m currently able to identify composers on compilation albums in Sonos is to go back to iTunes or dig out the CDs I have boxed in a closet. The need to do either is absurd.If someone at Sonos reads this, please pass it along to the development team. It is not a niche issue!

Hello experts! Advice?I have a move and a move2 and they work just GREAT together using airplay... Chose both and crank it up!! . I can even select my TVs and it will show the song and album art from Spotify.. im sure this is old news to you yall ...but Im thrilled! Having so much fun I'd like to buy one or two or three more speakers to fill in the rest of the house..What is a good older Sonos that I could find on FBmarketplace or eBay that would work on airplay along with the current two Moves? Battery is optional.Thanks y'all!
I can not activate my sonos move although it is connected to the System and i can See the move in my app. What should I do?
Looked at my Sonos on the 16 July 2024 and noticed an update for my system (Sonos OS: S2).Is it worth updating, as my previous experience was dismal and disappointing and we all know how that May update went.What has been peoples experience with the July update??
I cannot remove my surrounds, they are Era 100s. I have an Arc , sub gen 3 and era 100s. When I click remove surround I get the message “ there was a problem removing your surrounds. Check the network connection and make sure your products are powered on”. they are connected, powered on and working fine, I want to ove them to a different room and try using them as a stereo pair (before potentially buying a new pair (or something else) as surrounds. Makes no sense. I could try a factory reset but I don't want to then find I can't use them at all- not confident - maybe if is to do with the new app?
Sonos Ace support Bluetooth. ERA100 support Bluetooth. So they both play nice with each other, right?
Hi folks, I looked on the website of a Sonos dealer in Porto, in Portugal & was shocked that delivery would not take place of a Beam Gen 2 soundbar for 6-9 months! Why is this please? I also checked Amazon.es & .de & they also say delays of months…..1-2 months for .de MTIA
You say that the ability to play locally stored music will be restored in July. It is 21st July now. How long do we have to wait.Why was the new app released before this really important functionality had been implemented.
hi so i cant seem to connect my sonos roam 2 to my ps5 or my speakerless monitor because my monitor needs a headphone jack and sony have disabled the use of bluetooth speakers
I’ve used and loved Sonos products for years, but the changes in the system over the past couple of months are terrible. The functions on the controllers are super slow, some features no longer work, and I thought I’d check out the site and see if there’s anything I’m doing that’s wrong, but everyone else is frustrated too. I have way too much invested to jump ship, so I’m going to wait for the updates. I’m just really disappointed that a company that was so innovative and had wonderfully functioning software has dropped the ball.
