I am moving to a new home and would like to purchase a Sonos system. However my home has some limitations that necessitate a bit of a custom setup. I would like to run sonos ARC for my LCR Sonos amp to power rear surround (in-ceiling) I would also like the Amp to feed an lfe signal to my subwoofer. This is where things get fuzzy, there following article states it can’t be done: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/2237?language=en_US “Note that the Subwoofer and Line-In connections are disabled when Connect:Amp is used as surrounds.” However it appears to be referencing the old Connect:Amp. I would like to know if my setup is viable. Unfortunately sonos subs are simply not an option due to how large the space is
I have a few Sonos Connect devices around the house and enjoy them very much. I also have a Sonos Amp and several Play 1’s, One’s and Sub. Having recently been bitten by the Vinyl bug and cautiously entering this world with the acquisition of a Fluance turnable + external preamp (has not arrived at), I was wondering if the Sonos Port offers better performance when compared to the Sonos Connect. I could connect it to my Sonos Amp, but would prefer to connect it to another Sonos Connect setup I have in the house. I would then stream form that setup to other Sonos devices in my houshold. I have no need for Apple AirPlay.
I wish to purchase the Sonos Arc, would they take the money immediately for back ordered products or when item is in stock and despatched? Thanks
Hi, Trying to figure out if the Arc creates an immersive 3D-like experience during music playback ?(streaming or mp3) How many drivers will be used during music streaming? Just 2? The entire 11? Thanks
I’m looking to purchase a Sonos turn table, don’t know where to start and would appreciate some help on where to start from regarding the set up ? i currently have the apple home pod and was hoping I could link this in with Sonos products.
I have 14 outdoor Sonance speakers connected to Sonance Amps that are then connected to Sonos ports. I want to add a true outdoor tv, but I would like play the sound through the speakers I already have installed outside that are controlled with Sonos today through the port. What do I need to do or buy to allow this outdoor tv to play audio through my current setup? I also don’t want syncing issues with audio and video not matching up. I don’t need to add additional speakers, as current coverage for my backyard is great. What can I do here? Please help!
I just set mine up a couple hours ago. My current setup: Play5: Kitchen Play3: Living Room Play3: Office Play3: Basement 2 x Play3 Left & Right Pair: Master Bedroom Sonos Move - for deck time Expectations: I was HOPING this speaker would come close to the Play3 given the price. (I've never heard what a Play1 sounds like). I didn't think it would come close to a Play3 based on listening to the Youtubers trying to give sound comparisons through my own crappy computer speakers. Initial Reaction: Wow! These actually sound BETTER than my Play3's. I know audio is very subjective but I think I like the Move better than my Play3's. The "power" and "clarity" seem to be better on the Move than compared to my Play3's. But my Play3's seem to have a bit more "depth" to the audio. Hope that makes sense. When comparing to my Play5, I think the Move is closer to the Play5 than it is to the Play3 in my honest opinion. The Play5 does have more power, more clarity and more depth than the Mo
Does anyone know which courier company Sonos use for EU/UK deliveries ? Waiting patiently for my Arc to arrive next week but some companies seem to have an inability to find out house. thanks
Hi I'm thinking of getting a Sonos Arc for my lounge. There are no side walls either side of the TV although we have a 2 meter odd ceiling. Does the arc rely on side walls or does it only bounce sound off of ceilings and the wall behind the sofa? Any guidance appreciated
My other SONOS speakers are white, and I want to add a Move to my bathroom. I do NOT want a black speaker. Please make the Move in white. This would have been a day 1 buy for me if it was available.
Can Move be used in a sauna?
Hi, my living room is about 25m x 15m, and currently i have two Sonos One speakers in it. The sound is great, perfect really.. But there are slight chnages to the audio levels as i walk around the room. I really want to feel like I'm just blanketed by sound while laying on my sofa. I was considering buying another pair of Sonos Ones and hanging all four speakers from the corners of the room, basically making two L/R stereo pairs... But I'm wondering if this is overkill. I'm not interested in making my music super loud, just want it to be fuller. Thanks Thanks
Is the wallmount for the Playbar and the Arc the same?
What I’m hearing so far about the S2 software is making me really think about updating my remaining legacy products - especially the potential about supporting high-res audio. That said, my remaining concern has been the song limit - I’ve been relying on a DLNA server and now, as a better option, have migrated to Plex because my music collection is way larger than that. Curious, is S2 also going to raise this limit? It would be nice to be able to simplify my setup by getting rid of the servers.
Is there a white power cable i can get for the Sonos Arc? There are white cables you can buy for some of the other devices.
Hi, is PayPal “Credit” (6 month interest free) available as an option to pay for items? I know they accept regular PayPal. I’m asking about “PayPal Credit”. thanks

If I live in a 2 bedroom apartment on the top floor where the bedrooms are on either side of the living room but the floor is hardwood. Would the sub gen 3 be too much bass vibrating to the floor below or annoying my neighbors on either side??
Hello everyone. This is my first post, and hopefully it is in a format acceptable to this forum. I am trying to gift a system to someone. The person loves music, enjoys high quality sound, but is not at all interested in learning anything about systems, hi fi or technology of sound. The room it would go in is nearly a circle. It is also nearly all glass (due to views), and with a mix of wood and rug flooring. Sound does not bounce as much as one would expect. Although the space is a good size, the dining and sitting areas will never need different sound volumes. My goals are: 1) achieve sound excellence; and 2) Hide most of the system as much as possible. I have three scenarios depicted as attached. BLUE. Four Sonos One + Sub RED. Two Sonos Five + 2 Sonos One GREEN. One Sonos Five + 3 Sonos Ones + 1 Sub Would much appreciate if you would give me your preference, and reasons for why. Or, please give me an alternative other than those shown. Many thanks in ad
I currently have a Sonos Move, and use it primarily outside on my patio. It sounds good but I have a big backyard and would like to added volume. I’m considering buying a 2nd Move and setting them up in stereo. Any issues paring these in stereo when they are off the charging base? I know they can’t be paired in blutetooth mode, but I keep them on my wifi when outside, so that’s not an issue? Also anyone using 2 moves in stereo...any thoughts on the sounds when compared to just a single speaker in mono? Thanks.
My current home theater setup is a Sony 4k Projector VPL-VW285ES, Xbox OneX - that is connected to Sonos Playbar. i have a Sub and a pair of Play 3 speakers in this setup. I am interested to get Sonos Arc for Dolby Atmos upgrade but I am finding conflicting information on how to do this setup / if at all this setup would work now. Please help.
What's a better set up?
