What to get

I have all my sound in my home connected to Sonos, except AppleTV, which doesn't have an audio out. We primarily watch netflix, so can't use the nice surround sound, and instead use the TV speakers. Should I get a different media streaming device? Or what are my options to watch netflix via a streaming device and connect the audio to my sonos system?

Now I have my super size TV, and I move the my 65 inch to the bedroom. I decided to move my onkyo 2.1 with the 65 into the bed room. Because Samsung gave me a surprise offer. Get a HW-MS750 for 275 as a special offer. Prompting me to think about upgrading the HT in the living room. option 1 Get a Beam. I am not a fan of the playbase and playbar because of lack of HDMI for the price. The Beam might get me to move to sonos for HT. But I am not sold on it, since it seems to be marketed for people looking for a boost in sound quality over the flatscreen speakers. But since it is not out yet. I really do not know 100% if the sound of the beam can match the playbase or playbar. So I have not ruled out the Beam yet. option 2 Take the deal and spend 275 and get the Samsung HW-MS750. Seem to have a good sound stage with the upward firing tweeter. But all the older Samsung speakers I ever heard were marginal at best. But people said the sound+ series form Samsung has taken th

Question: Does the Sonos Boost work for increasing App reception or is it just for speakers. Here is my issue: My wifi system does have an extender installed. However while I am on my Patio my WiFi connection for the Sonos App does not function that well. I realize this is due to a weaker WiFi signal, my hope is to increase my app response with the Boost...since it goes through walls and ceilings. Please advise

Today I've got two Play:1s. One in the kitchen and one in the living room (see pic). Today I got gifted a new Sonos One. I'm debating returning it and buy a play:5 for the living room and to move one play:1 to the bedroom. Would that be overkill for my small apartment? I normally listen at around 30% volume. My other option is to replace my Sony HT-380 sound bar with dedicated sub with the Sonos Beam. Third option is just to keep the One and add it to my setup. What would you do?

Hello: Do you think the Beam is right for me? I am currently heavily invested in Sonos with 12 speakers in 9 zones, all for music. I mostly play music off my NAS and also stream Sirius/XM Satellite radio. My listening taste are mostly Springsteen, Classic Rock, Classical, Opera and Jazz. A secondary question would be whether to take the plunge on the Sub. My interest in the Beam is in improving the audio out of my inexpensive LED TV's. I don't sit down to watch TV for hours; the TV's are often on in the background while eating, playing with the dog, etc. An exception to this is playing the Switch. Because I'm not watching home theater, I was never interested in the Playbar/Playbase that cost more than my TV's. I would be interested in the Beam for these three TV's: #1 Living Room TV: Samsung UN46EH6000 Sonos: 2 X Play 5. They are currently parallel to the TV, about five feed off to either side. Additional Play 1 in the open kitchen behind the living room. Migh

Hi all, I want to buy some new floor standing (preferably white) speakers to use on my connect amp. They’ll be in the front room and mainly used for TV and music. I have been using a pair of tannoys that I purchased about 20 years ago so am in major need of an upgrade and wondered what experience and recommendation people may have. Price wise I don’t really want to go over £1k for the pair. Many thanks

Hi. So the new house build is nearly complete and I'm about to take the plunge. I've had wired 5.1 separates in the past, but this my first foray into Sonos. Having read up, Googled and read previous threads here, I'm still a little unsure of which to get - PlayBase or PlayBar. Removing the obvious decider from the equation, wall mount or bench top, as I can have either arrangement, for those who have tried both, which delivered the better sound? I'll be buying the Sub and two Ones to use as rear surrounds at the same time. The deeper and richer the bass and mids, the better as far as I'm concerned. Looking at the overall footprint and mass of the PlayBase, everything's making me lean in that direction rather than the Bar. We only use the following input/ouput which helps narrow things down possibly: We have a Sony 4k TV and using the internal Android, we use the built in Netflix and Prime Video Apps. We have Sky Q connected via HDMI to the TV. Music is only played

Just moved into a new house with speakers throughout, walls and ceiling. They decided to leave me some equipment (see attached) and set it up so all the wires come out in the same place(also attached photo) Is there a SONOS product that can help me simplify this? I am fine getting rid of the equipment.

Hi there guys I would like some information on how to set up a multi-room setup for a Sonos system. I am looking at having around 10 zones in total. I just wanted some advice on on what power amps to use in ceiling speakers. And also if we can connect up to 10 zones on one Sonos system with 10 power amps.

Like many other post I was planning in getting a Playbar but now the Beam complicates my decision. My situation - - planning to spend about $700 - room size medium (to small) 13’x19’ - tv does not have ARC - i’d like to mount on the wall under tv - Alexa already present in the room with Harmony Option 1 - Playbar Option 2 - Beam with two Play Ones I’m just curious on others thoughts. The bells and whistles with the Beam I really can’t use until I get a new tv. But with the room not huge am I better going after the number of speakers vs the fullness of one.

Dear Experts, I have just purchased this wireless projector: http://www.brookstone.com/pd/200-lumen-wireless-mobile-smart-projector/318023p.html?autosuggest=true This can easily be paired with bluetooth speakers, but not so easy with Sonos. I have play1, playOne, playbar and the sub and I would like to be able to get the sound from this projector to the Sonos system. What extra equipment will I need? The projector as and audio output, USB and and HDMI port. Thanks you for helpful advice!

I just bought the TCL 6 sERIES 4K TV, and I want to dive into the Sonos community. I listened to both the Playbar and Playbase both with the SUB, and I really like the sound of the Bar over the Base. The Beam just seems to small for me, I want big loud music into my 12x14 rectangular living room. Will there be any setup or playback issues with this TV or setup?

So I’m looking at getting a Playbar and eventually adding a sub. I have seen a couple of Playbar’s second hand at a tempting price. My question is, in the history of the Playbar have there been any significant hardware changes that should put me off going down the second hand route? Thanksss!!

I have skimmed many of the "What should I buy" answers in this forum, but still don't have a clear picture of what I need. But I do know what I'd like to accomplish. Basically, my wife hated the Advent Legacy II's we bought in 1991 and talked me into Paradigm bookshelf speakers in '06. Now she hates seeing speaker wire string along the floorboard everywhere... So I suspect a Sonos system, of some type, is what I need. Here is what I would like: * Stereo speakers in the living room * Stereo speakers in the family room (two floors away) * A speaker (I'm OK with mono) in the master bath * A speaker (again, mono is OK) on the roof deck 1) I would like to have them all access my component system - an amplifier, Eq, CD player, and turntable. 2) I believe that, by virtue of being Sonos, they'd each be able to access my Sirius and Pandora accounts. 3) I would love to have them access my iTunes library. I am willing to let it sit on a dedicated PC (the entire library isn't on a

Currently we have a Playbar, Sub and two Play 3's for the surround in our main living area. It's a large space, the Playbar has always served us well but looking at upgrading. We have just moved and will not be mounting the TV at this new place. Wondering wether to purchase a Beam because it's newer and will be fine or the Playbase?

Hi, I really want to get a couple of sonos systems, but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy them in Hong Kong. Most of the audio & video dealers I have talked to claim there is no agent in Hong Kong. Is that true? Does that mean I cannot buy a Sonos system in Hong Kong? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hi all, I'm currently orientating on purchasing a 5.1 system with the new Sonos Beam, two Sonos One's and a Sonos Sub. Now my guestion is, should I wait with the Sub? Out of these items the Sub will be the biggest investment, yet the one not supporting HDMI ARC and voice recognition. It would be a pity to have a '2018 system' running with an out of date Sub within the near future, limiting the possibilities of the overall system. Of course Sonos will not share their roadmap.... Any thoughts on this? Thanks.

Hi everyone, I am looking to delve into the world of sonos for home theater and music but am concerned about potentially using my existing system with a connect. I currently use an old analog rotel amp with mordaunt short ms10i bookshelf speakers. The speakers are a sweet sounding unit for their size and I would love to use them for the rears but from what I've read thus far I'm going to run into issues with lag if I try to use the sub/playbar when listening to music. My question then, is there anyway I could get this to work? Or am I better off ditching the old system and using sonos speakers exclusively? Cheers, Richard.

SONOS wireless headphones?

Hi guys. Could you please help me set up a solution for my bedroom audio? I am purchasing a tv projector and would like to find a sonos solution to listen to audio from the projector, and also audio streamed from spotify. I wanted to have two speakers working as stereo and have a subwoofer as well. Unfortunately, sonos soundbar or soundbase are not an option because there is no room to fit them. A regular receiver would be a solution, but I would rather go with some sonos solution. I though that maybe sonos connect:amp could work, linking the projector to two play1 speakers (maybe play 3 or 5), and then I could add a subwoofer grouped to the speakers. Do you think this solution seems reasonable? And possible? Thanks so much!

I'm the lucky owner of 2 x Play:5. I think the sound is perfect. I'm considering a sub to add to the 2 Play:5, but I'm not sure if there is any effect, since they play so good. Does anyone has this setup and what are your experiences?

By no means am i an audiophile, but I do notice a good home theater system. In between getting a beam + sub (already have two sonos ones) or a playbase with no sub. Generally speaking what would you guys imagine is the better set up sound quality wise? Initial reviews seems like Beam is going to be missing some bass, but sub in my mind would help make up for that?

Noob questions perhaps but will I get better 5.1 with the BEAM and HDMI than I would with the PLAYBASE/BAR and Optical?

Hi, I have a pair of Play 1's and an Echo Dot hooked up to a Connect in the kitchen. It was a rather expensive solution but ticked the boxes i) Children being able to ask Alexa for music ii) YouTube is a consistently good source for a type of music I like so I can bluetooth from any tablet or mobile device to the Dot I'm loving my kitchen setup and now I have the budget to look at my Cellar Lounger Room. The room is fairly small - 4.5m long by 3.5m wide I suspect I can tick all the boxes if I spend enough money and I see a couple of options Number #1 priority is good quality music system Number #2 priory is good quality sound from TV I looks clear that I get the PlayBar for my wall mounted TV which has optical audio out The decision I think is around the speakers I choose for listening to music / tv surround sound. I have an Echo Dot in the lounge that I want to retain (the children love it) and I also want to hook in from a mixer unit (I DJ a bit). So I was thinking a pair

I've had a single Play 1 for about 8 months now and despite it frustrating the hell out of me, I'm very eager to expand the system. I'm not an audiophile (in a sense that I have a terrible technical understanding of sound), but I'm a fanatic of awesome sound with perfect base and like it much louder than most. The Play 1 has been a tease! I also think the Echo is really cool but the sound quality does not make my ears happy. On a budget my first thought was a Play 5 and Echo Dot ($550). I want to see what that Play 5 feels like at all volumes...something tells me if I bought it I'd have a very hard time returning it. I also really like the Line-n feature because it would allow me to play my old school Ipod through it directly, bypassing that horrific app. Without question, my Ipod sounds way better than any of my iPhones ever have (both using auxiliary input in my car...no idea how it would sound with Play 5). The ability to have Alexa using a Dot really seemed to tip the sc
