What to get

Currently Currys in the UK have the Play 1 in Black or White selling for £134 with free delivery. I also get an 8% discount via my employers reward scheme so I'm going to bag me a couple of these beauties. I already have 5 Play 1s and that, obviously, is no way near enough!

Hi all I am about to upgrade my system but am unsure what to get. I have a stereo pair of Play 5's (gen1) and am considering getting a sub. Would it be better doing this or selling the Play 5's (gen1) and replacing with Play 5's (gen2). This will be a one off upgrade so if I went with the Play 5's (gen2) a sub would not be bought. What do you think would give the best sound? Thanks

Hi, Could someone recommend a good turntable to use with Sonos please

Hey, We have lots of sonos pieces and I'm looking to set up a "stereo system" was going to go connect amp and some good bookshelf units but I like sonos sound.... the main goal is music but I do have a smart tv on the shelf I plan to put the system. The only existing gear I would have is a gen 1 5. So thinking a pair of (1,3 or 5) and use the old 5 in the center????? Or sell the old five and go 2 new 5s only? Let me know your thoughts Thanks!

Hello, :? I would like to use SONOS as audio from my desktop pc...is it possible? My pc connects via wi fi to internet...

Help needed , i have a really nice set up in my living room. A pair of b&w 802 diamonds connected to a nad m3 and a camebride audio streamer. Now i would like to simplify the set up , but i dont know if i could be happy with a pair of play 5 with a sub. I there someone here who made a simmilar change in stereo set up.

I am considering the Sonos system but need to be able to play my existing CD collection from a conventional CD player. I understand both the Sonos Connect and the Play:5 have an Analogue In option. As far as I can tell the Connect is required if you also want to have an Analogue Out to existing amp with speakers, but if this is not a concern, is there any reason to buy a Connect if you already have a Play:5? A related question is: if my CD player is already connected to an Amp, can I connect the Amp to the Connect or Play:5 or does the CD player need to be connected directly to the Sonos gear?

So, my daughter's fiance fell in love with my Sonos over Thanksgiving's visit, so wedding gift was an easy choice - two Play:3s, which are very nicely priced if you have access to a military exchange (sold out online, unfortunately). Their house is not large, so I assume they can wire one direct to their router and then put the other elsewhere. If they do end up needing to separate them from the router and wifi doesn't cut it, is there any advantage to getting them a Boost rather than just pulling one of my old Bridges out of a drawer? Seems like a huge expense when I can give them a Bridge or buy one on eBay for $20 or so. I tried searching, but my search-fu was bad this morning (need more Red Bull) because I found nothing that describes the benefits of Boost over Bridge.

I'm try to figure out what the best setup would would be for room(8x7m). Should I go with 2 Play 3's and a sub or 2 Play 5's without the sub?

We have 2 interior rooms and one exterior room hardwired for speakers. I was told Sonos Connect will only handle 4 speakers. What all do I need to purchase that will control 3 sets of ceiling speakers and a soundbar?

I want to buy either Play:5 (single) or Playbar for my living area. I am more interested in music sound quality than TV sound. Which has better sound quality for streaming music?

hoping to get some advice on a little dilemma I now have. Got a Play 5 in the kitchen that used to sit on top of the fridge freezer and fill the room with sound. We’ve just had a new kitchen fitted with all new appliances and the gap between the top of the cabinets and the ceiling is a mere 90mm! I’ve put the play 5 in the corner on the kitchen worktop but the sounds no where near as good as filling the room, I’ve retuned using Trueplay. My initial thoughts were to get another Amp and a couple of decent speakers to go on top of the cabinets, but with only the 90mm to play with, I’m really struggling!

In my sitting room I have a pair of PLAY:3s and a SUB, which together stand one of my rooms called MAIN. So: MAIN = SUB + PLAY:3 + PLAY:3 (stereo, wireless) I also have other rooms in my apartment with other speakers, mostly PLAY:1s. Now, I am planning to buy and install in my sitting room a TV and a PLAYBAR. And here come the questions: 1. If I simply connect the PLAYBAR to TV, is it possible that this setup is displayed as an independent room in Sonos App, for example called "TV"? In other words, is it possible to have the PLAYBAR be controlled by the TV when I watch TV and by Sonos App when I want to stream some audio? 2. Is it possible to somehow conveniently group PLAYBAR and MAIN, to be either controlled by TV set or by Sonos App? To better explain my questions, I would ideally like to have the following possibilities: a) To listen to my existing MAIN controlled by Sonos App (no PLAYBAR involved) b) To listen to my existing MAIN + PLAYBAR, controlled by Sonos App (

Hi guys, just about to purchase a One. But a BIG question please. When Apple Siri support arrives, will it be directly from the One or will I need to access it from my iPhone and iPad?

Hello, i'm going to buy a pair of Play:5 to set an Stereo system, my doubt is, if i want to buy a turntable, it needs preamp? Or can i connect an Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC directly to one of the Play:5? Thank you, i have been reading about the sonos amp etc, but as i have read in the forum about the Play:5, and i doubt about it capability to coneect the turntable directly without preamp. sorry for my English, not my native language :_)

I want to buy a One/Play1 but I DON'T want Alexa built in, call me old fashioned but I am uncomfortable with the concept of a microphone constantly listening to every word said in a room. Which one do I need or are they only now available with Alexa built in/?

Hi, Am about to buy a sonos system with 3 components throughout the house. I’d like for the system to improve the tv sound, and be able to connect by cable to our existing stereo. I’m hoping that doesn’t require buying both a Playbase and a Connect? My question is- can a playbase be used interchangeably to play sound off the TV and a stereo, when the cable is moved between the devices? I know moving the cable back and forth would be a bit inconvenient, but the stereo use would be infrequent (to be able to play CDs without having to go though uploading them as don’t currently have computer). Both the tv and stereo have the same input jack (on stereo it says ‘Digital Optical’ and on the TV ‘Digital Audio’ but I understand they are the same as TV manual says the TV does Digital Optical, and they look the same). So I’m hoping the system could be- 1 Playbase and 2 Play1s Or does it sound like I’d need- 1 Playbase, 1 Connect and 1 Play1? Many thanks, Nerys

I am looking to add a Sonos speaker to a master bathroom being redone, can either the 3 or 5 be used in a bathroom? Is there another option I should consider? Thanks.

I ordered a multiroom Sonos setup including a connect to get the whole home music experience. I spent a lot of money, and I spent it on Sonos because by all accounts it’s supposed to be the best wireless multiroom solution. All I see on this forum is page after page of dropping speakers, connection issues, play lists that won’t play, rooms that disappear randomly, and music services that won’t music. My system arrived today and I will pick it up tomorrow. Dear lord I sure hope I didn’t make a huge expensive mistake. I want this to be an easy seemless experience, but I’m more than a bit worried now. My technology disabled wife is going to be using this system. She has trouble with a microwave.

Hi there! I am going to be putting in a new sonos system to replace an existing bose setup in our resturaunt (not satisfied with the bose's sound). The space it about 35 feet wide, by 20 feet long. What speakers would you recommend installing for this space? I was thinking of 2 play 5's, and 2-3 play 1's? Thanks for your input!

Hi There - I recently bought a new home, and there are about 8 brand new speakers pre-wired throughout the ceilings in each room. These all lead to a plate in my closet which houses all of the unconnected speaker wires (pic below). I'd like to avoid purchasing new speakers, because these are brand new and why wouldn't I just use them. Is there a SONOS (or comparable) product where I can connect the speaker wires and be able to easily control audio throughout my home? Thanks in advance!

Hi Sonos community, I have been bequeathed some records, but I don't have a record player. I would like to create a solution (involving Sonos) that allows me to play the records with minimal hardware/equipment. Based on my research and reading on this forum, I believe the simplest solution is that I need to buy: (1) a record player (turntable) that has a built-in pre-amplifier, and (2) a Sonos device that has an analog audio input (i.e., Sonos Line-in). For (2), it is my understanding that my options are PLAY:5, CONNECT, or CONNECT:AMP. The only twist is that I already have a PLAY:1, so I would also like to keep using that as well. Have I understood everything correctly? Is any option preferable? I would greatly appreciate any feedback or guidance. Thank you in advance.

Hi All, New to the forum, so nice to meet you all! We just finished some construction works to our house and I would like to get some Sonos stuff in the new kitchen, living area and outdoors. I asked my electrician to foresee audio cable in all zones as we were going to use in-ceiling speakers. He did this, but now that all works are finished, I noticed, he only gave me 1 'end point' per zone, meaning he has foreseen wires from speaker 1 to speaker 2 to speaker 3 to speaker 4 in zone 1. Did the same in zone 2 for the 2 speakers over there and did the same in zone 3 for the 2 outdoor speakers. This makes think a bit on how my ideal setup could work. Initially I was thinking to buy 3 connect amp devices to create the 3 zones, but it appears I don't have a 'left' and 'right' per zone as foreseen on the connect amp, so am I wondering if I would really need 3 connect amp's or if that setup even won't work at all? Here is a picture showing how the setup is currently: Z
