What to get

Would the Sonos Amp supply enough power for the Klipsch CDT-5800-C II? Would they sound better with a higher wattage amp? Sonos connectivity is very good but will the amp be good enough for the speakers. What do you think? Thanks for your help.

This seems plausible to me, but I haven’t seen any clear confirmation. Does it make sense that a turntable to a pre-amp to a television could play through a Beam? (I understand it might not make acoustic sense, but I’m contemplating buying a beam to replace my old receiver in a smaller room)

Hi .. Im a very new to Sonos and this is gonna be my first Sonos speaker. By goin thru other threads I understand now play 5 gives a better sound clarity than the beam. But however want to know whether play 5 gen 2 will give a better or same sound quality when connected with audio out aux on tv. I really like the play 5 sound clarity and just trying to understand will it not dissapoint me when connected to tv. Or is it better to get the beam and connect with the tv optical digital audio out. The sound will be better and can customize thru the app for good base ? Kindly advise. Thanks. Oh and I want this to my living room. This is a mini size 1 bed room apartment.

Hi I have 4 Proficient R800S Outdoor Speakers that I want to place around my outdoor space and run the speaker wire back into the garage. I have a couple play 1's inside the home already. I want to be able to play music via the Sonos app using the outdoor speakers. Would I need to buy two Sonos Connect:Amps or a Sonos compatible receiver + Sonos Connect? Which is the better system here?

My current system consists of a playbar grouped with 2 play 1s for the TV room, 3 other play 1s in other rooms, a connect Amp, and a gen 1 play 5 and also a Sonos bridge. I am having a whole home wireless network installed. Basically 2-4 access points on PoE back to the router. Do I upgrade the bridge to a boost or just use the new whole home wifi? Thanks

I am the happy owner of a Play:1, that I have in a bathroom. Now I know how good Sonos sound, I want to get a HIFI sound in my living room (4x5 meters). I used to listen soul, R&B, classical (Opera specially) and sometimes pop-rock. I listen to music in low volumes. I have ordered a pair of Play:1, a pair of Play:3 and a Sub to do some test but, I can´t take a decision. I tried following configurations: * 1 Play5 * 2 Play3 * 2 Play1+Sub * 2 Play3+Sub First of all, I tried the Play5. IMPO, it only sounds really good at medium-high volume. This is too loud for me and my neighbours... (I didn´t try the Play 5 + Sub) After that I try the pair of Play3+Sub and the sound was marbelous. Then, I chaged the Sub to be with the Play1 pair and compared the Play3s vs the Play1s+Sub. For me, there is differences but I can´t really said what is the best option. It is difficult to compare the Play3+Sub vs Play1+Sub, because I have to configurate the sistem again if I change th

Can a Boost do the same job as Bridge ??? Lots of skipping issues and need t get it sorted fast !! so considering the Boost. The 120 euros is a small price to pay if I can get reliable tunes tomorrow.

I have a new LG OLED65C8 tv and new LG Play bar SK9Y.......can i use that and my Sonos sub and 2 Play:1s and still get stereo from the system

I'm stuck on what to get next, I just got the beam and I have a sonos one in my room but I don't know if I should hold off on another One and save up for the sub or go ahead and get a One so I can have surrounds. I'm about to shovel out a good bit of money on a nice 55" TV so it's gotta be one or the other. The One is obviously way cheaper and could pair with my existing One for rears but idk if the Sub is worth it for a small bedroom. I haven't heard anything about them making a more economical sub to match the price and power of the beam and I'm hesitant to double what I've spent on Sonos already and veer into overkill territory for about a 300 sq ft bedroom but then again it is where I'll be enjoying almost all of my music, TV, and video games. I'm not worried about too much sound because my room is fairly soundproofed and I'm young, but also keep in mind money-wise I'm a college student. I'm not a basshead but I do appreciate a full sound and for a good mix of TV and music I'm just

I have a 3 car 1250 sq feet garage. My 3rd stall is deep where I have a play 5. I am debating on adding another play 5 on the other side to create a stereo or should I get a play 3 and a sub. Currently the coverage of my play 5 isn't the best due to my deeper 3rd stall. Open to suggestions.

I'm new to Sonos. I just received and setup my Sonos Beam, Sub and 2x Play 1s yesterday. I have a small / medium apartment. I had been using an old cheap 'home theater in a box' sound system that wasn't very good. I'm not much of an audiophile at all. I just like sounds to sound good to my ears. My use case is all streaming content from my AppleTV to a 43" Sony Bravia. Movies, television and music. After much research, I went with Sonos for it's ease of use and setup. I didn't really need a high end audio system. Or one that had too much power for my living space. The sound is glorious :) I had it setup in about an hour. Tuned, adjusted the Sub down a bit as it's a little boomy in here. Apple Music - I have a wide and eclectic taste in music - I was pleasantly surprised how good it sounds. Television - Netflix and other services that can broadcast 5.1 surround come through very well. Hulu - only broadcast in stereo - so the quality is still good, but only through

I have a Beam ordered and I'm going to add to more speakers to it so I'm wondering what's the best way to go. I'm thinking the sound quality of the Play 1 and Play One is so similar that I'm thinking of getting 2 Play 1's because I maybe 3 Alexa enabled devices in the one room is over kill. And because I already have 1 Play 1 and 2 Play One's in the house already so I'll only actually need to purchase 1 more Play 1. Has anyone got any previous experience with Play 1/One's with a Playbar or any opinions on this? I know the Beam is not available yet but so it's kind of difficult to gauge what that will be like.

Hi there im new to sonos and looking to get the beam and either a play 3 or 2 play ones which speaker is best to get one play 3 or two play ones please advise Many thanks :?

Ideals for Vacation Rental Owners who have purchased Sonos for their rental property.

I am using the Time Capsule with two AEX WiFi extenders for WiFi needs at home that also serves Dots around the home. Sonos is served via Sonos net, with a Boost and a WD My Cloud NAS wired to the LAN ports of the Time Capsule. This is all working fine, but I may have the opportunity to manage the logistics of replacement and one never knows how much life is left in the 2011 TC. My question is what would be a good modern replacement for the Time Capsule with the following conditions: 1. International voltage range like Sonos kit. 2. Should be available in Best Buy stores in the US. 3. Should work as a drop in replacement for Sonos. 4. Should work as a drop in replacement for WiFi - either with the two AEX extenders at either end of a single floor apartment, or by not needing these. 5. If 4 is not likely, what extenders will have to be bought as well? While I use the Time Capsule for Time Machine back ups, I can easily use a wired to Mac HDD to do this, so this functionality is

Hello there! I am a really happy user with 2 sonos one old generation As you can see in the photo my setup has one Panasonic TV and one Benq 1070 projector. My concern is what setup I should buy for movies and music to get sound from TV (everyday use) and projector (not so frequent use). I also have a hdmi matrix https://www.amazon.co.uk/Agptek-Splitter-Function-Extractor-Headphone/dp/B01LXAJ5YI/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1531469762&sr=8-5&keywords=hdmi+switch+6+input that until now was moving my video and sound from my media player with optical input to either TV or Projector. My old system was logitech z550 with optical input. I am thinking about Sonos Beam with the bass later and my 2 Sonos 1 as a surround system. What do you think? Will that solution work for me? Will the HDMI Matrix be able to transfer the sound? Maybe the playbar will be a better solution? Thank you very much and sorry for my English I hope you understand my questions.

Hello, I have been thinking about getting a Beam + Sub for my new appartment. Its a 40m^2 living room + kitchen, so I think the sound should be good enough for that size. However, I have heard that soundbars in general are a bit bad at playing music. If I buy two Sonos Ones, will they be able to enrich the music quality, or will the Beam define the sound picture? Note: Of course no one can answer for the Sonos Beam, but if people have experience with Playbar or Playbase, that will solve my problem Wilhelm

Hi, whats the general consensus amongst those of u who have the Sonos Beam, is the bass effective enough during action movies for example? The reason I ask is I went into my local John Lewis expecting to walk out with a Beam but the demos that was playing didn’t really impress. This is the total opposite of when I bough my Play 1’s, the sound from them blew me away. Thanks in advance.

I’ve seen the threads talking about two play ones and a sub, and I love my play ones. But I bought a play 5 and I love that too, but not as much as the ones bang for the buck. Now, I’m debating on either buying a sub or another play 5. I’ve read only good things about the sub, but another play 5 would be cheaper , I know it’s good and I could use it in stereo. So, what do you think? Buy a sub to use with a single play 5 or buy another play 5? Which would you recommend?

Hello, I want to get the Sonos Beam with hopes of doing a surround system with 2 Ones, but I am unsure if my TV will output surround sound or just stereo. I currently have a PS4 for streaming and a Samsung UN46F7500 46-Inch 1080p 240Hz 3D Ultra Slim Smart LED HDTV. I see on CNET's page that it decodes Dolby Digital Plus. Will that be ok? I was thinking of getting a roku streaming stick, but was also worried about the fact that they mostly do DTS? (Sorry if I sound naive, but all the types of signals kind of confuses me...)

My TV is mounted above a fireplace and given the placement I don't have enough room to mount a soundbar of any size (I have about 2" between my mantle and the bottom of the TV...and no, I don't want a smaller TV!) I'm thinking of using 2 Play One's to connect to my TV either on stands, or mounted on either side of the TV. I recognize I would have to use a Connect as well, and I have an optical cable that runs from my TV to a media area so the setup is relatively easy. I don't really care about full 5.1 setup, I just want better sound quality than my TV currently offers. Any recommendations on whether this setup is adequate, or any recommendations on an alternate setup that might make this better? Thanks in advance for any insight.

I don't know how long this post will be allowed to stay up, but I hope long enough to warn any prospective buyers. Up until this year, I've been the proud owner of 2 play bars, 2 subs, 3 play 1's, and 1 bridge ($3,500 total). The last few updates have been horrible; they've reduced functionality and crippled mine and others' systems (check the community posts), and even worse, they have not been resolved! They just keep pushing updates with new "features". Save yourself the headaches and hours of frustrating phone calls with their tech support. If they fix their articulated issues then I will greenlight them again, but holy s***, this is the worst case of buyer's remorse I've ever had.

I have an 1800 sq ft optical space where I'm considering bypassing our existing in-ceiling (crappy tinny-sounding) speaker system with Sonos products (speakers themselves, not a Connect or Amp). My question is what products and how many should I get? Volume levels will be relatively low (quieter then normal speech, I'm guessing max volume will be in the 30-40 dB range at the very most). I'm leading towards multiple (perhaps) 4 Sonos One's for the main room vs. 2 Play:5's (I'm not interested in Play:3's at this time since it's a somewhat non-updated product at this point). What would be better from a sonic standpoint? I was also considering adding a sub for this large area, however would this just be a waste in this scenario? I will use other Sonos One's (or perhaps less expensive Play:1's) in other areas of the office where needed. I am a bit of an audiophile and cost of this small project is not a significant concern. I have a numerous Sonos products throughout my house

I have seen a few topics on this but i was wondering, are there any updates or new stands out that actually work with or are specifically made for the sonos one?

So I have just pre-ordered the new Sonos Beam to go with my 2 x Play 1 speakers. I just need to add a TV to the collection now and was wondering what are people's thoughts on what to look out for with regards to TV specifications in order to optimize integration within the system? Thoughts on TV brands most compatible with Sonos?
