What to get

Hi all,I am renovating a old house of >100 years and I am thinking about the audio set-up.I would like to have a nice audio system in the kitchen - Dining room - Sun room which will be an open space in which we will spend a lot of time.The dining room ceiling cannot be modified but their will be dropped ceilings in kitchen and sun room.I was thinking about putting pairs of Sonance in-ceiling in kitchen and sun room and a pair of In-wall in the dining room. Maybe later adding a Sub somewhere in the space if I feel the need (and have the budget….).This is a rather expensive set-up, probably with 2 Amp (one for the 4 in-ceilings and one for the in-walls) so I want to make it right.What do you think and do you have any better suggestions?Thank you!!       

Hi everyoneI have a complete Sonos surround sound system set up but I would like to get a pair of floor stands for my One speakers, which are currently sitting on a table and a bookshelf at two different corners of the room.I’ve been searching online as to which ones to buy and I can see Sonos sell two types. The Sanus floor stands at £99 and then the more expensive One stands at £249, which is quite a jump from the cheaper stands. Then there are even cheaper imitations on various sites, which I don’t think I want to buy.So really my questions is, out of the two official Sonos stands, which one should I buy? Are the more expensive stands really worth the £249 and what makes them stand out (no pun intended 😂) to the Sanus version? If you own a pair of these, which one did you buy and are you pleased with them? Many thanks

I recently ordered several pieces of Sonos equipment including 2 black ERA 100 speakers. I received 1 black speaker and 1 white speaker. When I contacted Sonos Customer Service to package up the white speaker, drive it to a UPS center and ship it back to Sonos. After they receive it, they will send me the correct colored speaker. Really???? First of all I don’t live anywhere near a UPS return center and second…..why am I being inconvenienced by their mistake. Can someone please help me with this issue?? Moderator edit: removed agent’s full name

Hi,In my room I have an Arc and 2 one for surround. I would like to hide wires and wonder about the best of those configurations: arc + amp and 2 inceiling such as focal icw (about 1300 euros) arc + 2 era 300 with wallmount on the ceiling (about 1000 euros) which configuration would be the best? here is a picture of my installation thanks !

I just switched from my old vinyl setup of Turntable + Integra DTM 5.3 receiver + Port to Turntable + Amp.I didn’t realize I would need a phono preamp in order to use to my 1970s turntable, which used to hook up to the Integra’s phono input. I thought the Amp had a built-in phono stage, whoops ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I’d like to stick with this new Amp setup, but I’m not sure which phono preamp to get. Since I wasn’t anticipating having to buy a preamp in the first place, I’d like to keep my costs somewhat low, $200 or less if possible.I’ve heard good things about the Schiit Mani 2 and Ifi Zen Phono, and that’s basically it. Wouldn’t mind buying the $65 one from Turntable Lab either, but I assume it’s nothing special. Does anyone have any recommendations within my price range ($0-200) that would sound good with the Amp?Honestly if it could sound just as good as my previous setup I’d be perfectly happy. I’m sure the phono stage in my old receiver wasn’t that great in the first place. Maybe I should

Can I buy a black Arc and a White Sub Woofer or do I have to the same color?

Hi all,I currently have two ONEs in the lounge (stereo pair, on Sanus stands) and two Symfonisk Bookshelf speakers in the kitchen (stereo pair).I am looking to buy a Beam Gen 2 for the lounge. I am thinking of bringing the Symfonisk speakers into the lounge and placing them on stands behind the sofa on either side with TV straight ahead and keeping the ONEs where they are at either side of the TV in the far corners. For TV, I would like to use the Beam as main speaker(s) and Symfonisks for Rear Surrounds. I don't think I can also add the ONEs as extra speakers for TV in this set up?For Music, I would like to use the Beam, together with the ONEs (as a stereo pair) and IF POSSIBLE, also the Symfonisks. Would the latter best be achieved by changing the setting to Full Audio (not ambient)? Also, assuming I can do all of that, am I going to notice a big improvement when playing music to all these speakers, compared to what I'm used to, ie, playing on just the ONEs as a stereo pair? Does it

Already have 2 Sonos subs (Think Gen2) hooked up in two separate rooms, can I add a 3rd Sonos sub to the system (ideally new Gen 3 sub)?  Want to do another another room with Arc and Sub, but can’t find anything that says this is possible or not possible.  Want to avoid the amp and 3rd party sub if possible.  Thanks

Hi Sonos Community! My wife and I have bought a barn conversion off plan and I’m starting to think where to put plugs and wiring for speakers etc.The main living space is around 8.5x8.5m, the ceiling height in the middle is 8m!The existing timber frame is still there, around 3m up from the ground so was thinking of mounting the Sonos on these?There is a mezzanine area where we’re going to have our TV. I’m trying to figure out what to do in the main space which has kitchen, dining table and living space (sofa and woodburner)Do I try and just fill the room with 4x 1s or Era 100s?Or should I do more strategic placement based on the 3 ‘zones’?Maybe just a pair of fives either side of the kitchen projecting into the whole space?Thoughts please!

Hi 👋  Sorry if this has been asked before, I have searched but couldn’t find anything listing compatible soundbars for the new Sonos five. Has anyone got a list of what soundbars are compatible with two Sonos Fives please? Many thanks

Hello! I have a very good hifi audio system that I would like to make work with my Sonos speakers in other rooms. I want to be able to walk through my house and hear music seamlessly with no delays. With my Sonos speakers in different places, all works great. How do I incorporate my existing stereo system into my Sonos system? Port? Amp?

I'll be moving into a new condo. My current thought is that the 2nd bedroom will have my audiophile setup and I'll want a port for there. The living room will have a 50” ish tv and I'll want some speakers and sub for it. Finally, for the main bedroom and deck I could use a pair of potable speakers. Maybe I'd use them in the kitchen too. I'm not too concerned about audio quality for tv purposes but I like the idea of that audio being good for music. I'm not sure of how the audio at the tv would extend to the kitchen. I'm looking for suggestions for the tv audio and pair of portable speakers.  

Hello all, I want to set up a home theater with surround sound,  I need an opinion for Era 300. or  In-ceiling speakers. I have a big room and which one is good for me?   thank you help.

I have just purchased an Arc sound bar and a Gen 3 sub-woofer. Can I mount two rear speakers on a 3 metre ceiling.If so, what type and do they require additional brackets Thanks,Stan 

There are many more topics comparing these players. Please click here to see a list of more topics around the same subject. Tried both arc and beam gen 2, am I missing something? Having trouble decidingSo I went to Best Buy to test the Beam gen 2 (with sub mini) and Sonos Arc (with sub gen 3). I test both with/without the sub. The Arc I could see why people say it’s better for movies. When I played the demo - Arc had the volume distributed a lot wider. Movie effects like water splashing felt widerHowever, the beam felt a lot punchier (probably because the sound is more direct). The Beam felt more in your face. For the same volume it felt like it was louder. The sound felt a lot clearer for the same volume compared to the arc. I have a 650 sq ft apartment with 12 feet between front and back wall, and a long hallway (30 feet) on my left side and a wall basically directly to my right. Would the arc be better for if I eventually upgrade my TV? I much preferred the more direct sound of the

I bought a "beam" and now I'm undecided whether to add Era 100 or Era 300. Does era 300 make sense with a beam? Does Atmos work in the sound round Era 100 + beam configuration or only with Era 300? In addition to these I will also buy a sub-mini. Thank you

I have a large indoor room (kitchen/living/dining combo almost 1000 sq ft) and would like accomplish 2 things with Sonos:  1.  Greatly enhance sound quality of TV sound but don’t need a truly immersive experience.  2.  Play music while cooking and entertaining.  I also have a large outdoor covered deck. Want to accomplish exact same goals outside as above stated for indoor room. Outdoor area is 1050 sq ft What would you recommend?  Thanks very much!!!

I’m converting an old barn that is 35 x 32. The walls are 11’ and go up to a peak that is 23’. How many speakers shold I mount around the space for a great music sound? Where should they be mounted? And chich speakers should I purchase?

Hi! I've decidced to change my current setup with Sonos and i'm not familiar with its capabilities.I'm interested in getting one Beam and two Moves. I would like the two moves to move around the house and when it's time for movie to pair them for stereo with the beam and eventual sub.Would that be possible and if so would you suggest to be good idea or is there a flaw in my desire.As addition will it be possible to stream the sound from PC to sonos and a wall projector at the same time without any additional complication and/or latency?Best regards!

The Sound bar was great for sound with surround. Unfortunately, it failed after five years. I purchased a Beam recently, and to follow up on a previous conversation, the Sound bar is much better for those of us with hearing issues. The beam is just not as dynamic with sound. I just returned the Beam, not so much for the sound, but because I still have an older TV and the Beam (and the Arc) both now utilize the HDMI eport or Arc port. The Sound bar utilized an optic cable and I could control the volume of my TV audio on the Sound Bar with my TV remote.  With the Beam & Arc I will have to purchase a newer TV in order to do this. (Current uses RF remote, would need IF for TV & Remote for Beam or Arc) The Sound Bar had no issue with RF.  I understand Sonos will be refurbishing the Sound Bars that we turn in and reselling. It would be great if Sonos just made a sound bar that can work in either option so that at some point if I bought a newer TV I would not have to change my Sonos p

Hi,Newby here.I've read thru the 'Using Sonos as PC speakers' post which explains a lot of the options. However, as I'm new to Sonos I wanted to understand my options and any associated limitations in my use scenario.I will be going whole home with Sonos over the coming months but only have a Roam at the moment as wanted to test operability and the sound profile.My question is regarding one room, a home office, where I would like to connect both a local TV and a local PC to the same Sonos product and be able to,1. Watch TV, mainly when the wife has commanded the main room, (which will have ARC/Sub/Era 300s), or with news in background whilst working. Stereo presentation is fine, Atmos not necesarily needed.2. Use the speaker for PC audio, (Teams, music etc) Not likely video as the speaker will be at 90' to me when using PC so a short audio delay would probably be fine.3. Playing same audio around the whole house.It seems I'm looking at units that will provide 2 inputs.So suggestions an

So I bought an Era 300. Love it. However I am told that playing physical atmos music media is far better than streaming it for pure quality.I would like to buy another Era 300, an Arc and a sub Will I be able to play Atmos physical media through a ‘device’ and get true atmos sound? If so what ‘device?’Sony x800m2?Something else?
