Why is my shipment staying in "shipping label generated" for an extended period of time?

I placed my order a few days ago, and it has been sitting in this status ever since.  The estimated delivery date gets moved one day forward every day.

Feature request: Announce song title and artist

I would love it if (Alexa-enabled?) Sonos speakers had the option to announce the title and artist of songs in between them playing. e.g. “That was Eight Days a Week by The Beatles. Next up is Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen.” This would be SO helpful when shuffling a playlist you’ve never listened to before, or one you haven’t listened to in a while. Plus, for voice-enabled speakers, it would give you an extra moment to decide if you want to skip a song before it starts playing.

Why is Yandex music still available via Sonos?

Has Sonos severed or suspended its commercial operations in the Russian Federation given it is engaged in a fascist invasion of a sovereign state and stands accused of war crimes? Yandex Music is a Russian entity.

Tech support shipped over seas.

Has anyone else experienced the horrible tech support now that it has been shipped to a third party over seas. It no longer is the knowledgeable friendly professional tech support that in the years of owning a complete Sonos system I have come to know. Now it’s being put on “Mute” till I have to hangup due to no response or a tech that talks so fast they must be on a time constraint to get me off the phone. Then hangs up at the end of a very painful call with no thank you for being a valuable customer or do I have any other questions no Bye--- just hangs up.  Bring it back to the US of A. at least I won't be put on Mute or Hung up on.

Pair two Roams or Moves via bluetooth - please!

We camp a lot and having the ability to pair two (or more) roams together would be so beneficial. Many of the roam competitors already offer this feature, PLEASE consider this.

Would you have purchased Sonos knowing what you know now?

I have owned multiple Sonos products over the years.  I regret this due to the many hours I have had to spend reconnecting Sonos to my network.  I have never had any product come close to the frequency of lost connections or the difficulty of reconnecting.  Half the time I have to involve a Sonos tech or live without Sonos for a while.

Feature Request: add Dante Audio integration to Port

I own a professional music studio & production facility… audio is routed through our facility using our Dante network which integrates seamlessly with our existing network switches/infrastructure. Dante is quickly becoming the state-of-the-art, industry-standard for professional digital audio routing & a lack of Dante support for Sonos is the only thing stopping us from going “all in” on Sonos for our general facilities. Dante is Ethernet based, so it should in theory be possible to add compatibility with the Sonos Port via a software update  Also – POE powered Sonos speakers would be A+++ 🙏

Disappointed Legacy User

We bought a new Roam for our home that already has 7 other Sonos devices. We are a longterm user of Sonos equipment and have been very supportive over the years. We have found out the new Roam will not work with legacy equipment in the network. I was told it would need to create a new network, an S2 network for it would operate. Clearly a huge departure from the concept of buying devices which all will work in one network … if you want all the rooms to have the same music, not problem; well not anymore for legacy users. I was told I had two options, a new network, upgrade old equipment and of course return the new Roam. The new network doesn’t work well for us. An upgrade of the range of $2,000 Cdn seems unbelievable, we get nothing new, same music as we use to have. Only a couple years ago the CEO of Sonos stated that he had heard from the legacy users, we respected that we were there in the beginning years. He stated he would keep the “two operating systems” to accomodate the legacy

Never Ever !

I will never buy sonos again.I do not need a police gear that decide what I can or cannot listen through the gear that I bought.Nor buy a device that, one day, decide to stop to get connected to my wifi. And then, while wired connected, then stops working from one day to another with no change.Sonos = planned obsolescence.The sound is good yes. That is all ! The only positive point.The gear will go to trash ! I have no time to reconfigure it from scratch when I want to stream a song.You are a great rogues band. Congrats dude.I know you do not care because you have no respect for anyone and anything, people neither the planet. We start not carrying much about sonos and sonos like companies either.

Feature request : scheduling for speech enhancement & night sound

Hi, Owner of a Sonos Arc, would be usefull to be able to schedule on/off for speech enhancement & night sound. This will avoid to active them manually when kids are sleeping, and to forget to remove it at the end of the movie/night.

Feature Request: Sonos app control without Wi-Fi

TL;DR: support for controlling Sonos system through mobile app, without local Wi-Fi connectionContext:I have a Sonos systems in both my home and the production facility I work out of.All of our Sonos devices are hardwired to the local networks, as are most of our internet-connected devices since we have a gigabit network &amp; they need an optical connection to take advantage of that.Because of this, I prefer to keep my mobile devices off Wi-Fi since my 5G cell coverage on my phone is actually more reliable.Since the Sonos devices are connected to the internet anyway, why am I unable to control them from anywhere? Why do I have to be on the local network?

Circular economy please, not disposable products

I considered buying my two adult kids a new Sonos Roam each, but these speakers are designed to last only a few years, because the battery is not replaceable. Sonos, you need to be a responsible global citizen. We cannot keep polluting this planet the way we have been, particularly over the past 50 years - the period of turbo charged, rampant consumerism. You can change the design - allow simple battery replacement; and make the speaker, all your speakers, fixable. If the water resistance goes out the window, so be it.Market your environmentally friendly credentials then. Put people and planet before profit, and you, and all of us, will profit in the long run.

The Beatles Get Back Rooftop Performance

I know specific bands are not really a discussion on this forum, too each his own. However, they just released this performance on various music services. Not a huge fan but recognize their and its musical significance to history. Just listened through Apple Music via Dolby Atmos with my Arc surround set. Just have to say really awesome and would definitely recommend taking 42 minutes to do so. Just incredible.

Feature Request: Sub Donut Swapping

I’m new to Sonos- just installed a white ARC and will be receiving a white sub this week. A pair of white One SLs are in my future as soon as they are available.Something that bothers me on the white sub is the black donut on the openings. I would prefer it to be the same white as the cabinet- or even some color that works well in my room. I would love to have that  magnetically attached along with a rainbow selection of colors to allow for some customization on the sub.I know vibration is an issue, and I know black was likely chosen to blend with the inner drivers area inside the opening- but in black it looks to me like the sub’s guts are prolapsing out instead. I could even see changing the donut color for seasons or holidays. Think “Apple Watch band”. And think extra revenue!Thanks!
