Hi,i want to setup:2 speakers in dining room2 speakers in living room 1 2 speakers in living room 22 speakers in kitchen 2 outdoor speakers. How many amps do I need? can I play the same music on all the speakers even if there are multiple amps? if 2 speakers from living room 1 and 2 speakers from living room 2 are connected to the same amp, can I have 2 different zones? So I could play the same music in both living rooms AND play the same music in living room 1 and turn the speakers in living room 2 off - is that makes sense?thanks
Hi all, my first post before buying a Sub. I was just wondering what happens to midrange when adding in a Sub. Will the Beam handle it differently than it does on its own or would it be best to add in a third Sonos unit? Or, and I suspect will be the answer, does the Sub and Beam share the responsibilty perfectly well?Thanks Martin S
Is it possible to run the Sonos amp with a pair of One SL’s as the mains? I have a setup where I have existing power close to both speaker locations but won’t be able to run speaker wire due to existing construction. The reason I’m looking at the amp instead of the port is that I want to get a turntable and HDMI ARC into the system. Sorry if this has been asked before but I’ve searched the forums for a while and couldn't find anything.
I am trying to find a music system which will work in my little flat. I’ve been using Logitech Boom speakers but connecting them is clunky via the app and also unreliable; also I want to be able to play the radio without connecting my device.This is what I want to do:play my own music (not streamed music) from my phone or tablet listen to the radio (BBC) listen to BBC Sounds listen to podcasts (via Google or Spotify or suchlike)I’d like to do all the above in multiple rooms. I’m always scuttling from one to the next so would like the same sound playing on different speakers in different rooms. I’ve got a few Alexa devices but they won’t let me play my own music apart from via Bluetooth. I’m looking at Sonos One and Symfonisk speakers. Research suggests that I can play my own music (from my phone or tablet) and BBC radio via the sonos app. Is this correct? Can I play Spotify podcasts or Google podcasts (a thread from a couple of years ago suggests not)? I have an Android phone and table
I have a really nice new 65” LG OLED and I want to add some nice surround speakers to. I do not have the option to run wires so I decided to add to my Sonos collection and pick up a Beam 2. I likely would have bought an Arc if they were available right now. My question is this...should I order an Arc or should I just add two 1 SL’s to the back of my room to compliment the Beam 2 in the front of the room? I will use this setup for music sometimes but primary for watching movies.
I have two Western Digital My Book Live NAS units installed similarly in two locations. As of several months ago, I am no longer able to index the library for both. The error message: “The [drive name] is no longer available.” On one, I deleted the music library hoping I could add it back in, and am unable to do so, displaying the same error message. On the other, I am able to run my FLAC files with no problem, but cannot index. Sonos tech support has not been able to resolve - they are still working on it. The firmware has not changed for the NAS since 2015. I’m running S2 at both locations. Because of this situation, I am looking for current year 2022 recommendations for replacement NAS units in case I have to do so.
I am building out a home network and Sonos solution at the same time. I am planning on having a couple of amps wired via ethernet in a closet, but I also want to add one by our pool area. The SonosNet wifi definitely won’t reach there, but our home internet will, which would mean I’d need to go with a wireless setup, right? If that’s the case, will ethernet work on the ones inside the closet despite being in a wireless setup?
My Arc has been on back order. The expected ship date was 1/21/22, but I’ve heard nothing. Just keep waiting?
Hi all,I was looking at purchasing my first Sonos product with the view of progressing to a home cinema system and multiple speakers throughout my house. I’m probably looking at around £1000 to get started, so wondered what the best option would be. I currently own a Panasonic 49 inch tv which is wall mounted. My sitting room, is 4.60mx 3.60m so relatively small. I was looking at either the Beam + 2x OneSL or just the Arc? I could maybe stretch to the Beam + Sub at a push. I had just wondered if anyone had any recommendations as a startup? Thanks all.
I am thinking of adding an AV receiver via ( RCA) Sonos connect . Any AV receiver suggestion ?
I ordered home theater system on 01/04 and was supposed to ship on 01/14 but the status still shows as Backorder. Is this delay normal? The customer support don’t provide any other dates.Thanks!
Hi I m thinking of purchasing the Move for my dance classes I run in a hall venue. I currently use a JBL Flip 5 but the volume output does not fill the space now is it loud enough. Would the Move work well for this application?
Hello community :)Is the speaker setup I came up with pretty much correct? We don’t have a huge budget. I would appreciate any comments.Thanks a lot!Basia
I have an old HK receiver I used for a theater back in the day. Converted the entire house to Sonos now. I wanted to to set it up in garage and connect the port to it,to run some additional outdoor speakers in the backyard around the pool. I have the Sonos amp connected to my ceiling speakers outside which produce great sound but the back of the yard not so much. I would prefer buying the port vs another amp to save some dollars. Looking for some suggestions if I should try and use the port or make it simple and just by another Sonos amp. I know the newer receivers have more options for the Port but this is just for 2- 6” landscape speakers so buying a new amp or receiver seems like overkill. Any suggestions welcomed..
I have 2 Play Ones (older, non smart) and a Playbar in our living room. We also have a Move on the patio. I would love to add a turntable to our lives and get back to purchasing records but I am very unsure on how to go about this. It seems like it’s more complicated than I had hoped.Does anyone have a relatively simple solution?Thanks.
Hi I am interested in buying sonos for the first time and want to be able to play vinyl on a vintage turntable we inherited (1970s Pioneer PL-50). We also have a Pioneer SX-9000 receiver, but we got rid of the speakers because we don’t want the bulk. We would like to figure out whether we can connect this turntable to a sonos system, if so do we need to keep the receiver or buy a pre-amp, and then which Sonos component should we buy?Do I need the receiver? It is very complicated, with jacks that are marked “ Pre out and mixing rec.” “Main in” a toggle that says “Pre & Main Separated Intercoupled” “Phono Mag 1, Mag 2, Aux 1” etc. Seems like it would be easy to mess up and has much more capacity than I need Can a modern preamp connect to my vintage turntable? Given I have no speakers which sonos speaker should I get? The Five?Thank you!Kathy
I have a sub, a beam, a five, and a sonos turntable. I want to connect a traditional CD deck. Do I need to buy a Sonos Amp or a Sonos Port? Thanks
I wounder if this configuration could work for a simple karaoke system.TV hdm arc => karoke mixer with hdmi arc in and out (mixer will mix the audio from the tv with audio from mic and send it to the arc) => sonos archttps://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B08R768H7M/ref=sw_img_1?smid=A3JTW74NYUO5NP&psc=1 Will this work?
Will Sonos One work the Sonos Arc far as surrond sound?
I know this had been discussed in prior posts, however, I’ll broach the subject again - are there any reasonably priced options for a sub that can be leveraged within the Sonos ecosystem other than the Sonos Gen 3 sub? Also, has there be any further discussion on offering a more entry level sub from Sonos? $750 for a sub has got to prices a lot of customers out of the market, including myself.
I have a Bose Lifestyle 35 with outdoor speakers and I would like to replace it with a Sonos system. I understand that Sonos doesn’t have bundles and has mix and match, but I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions. It looks like the Arc soundbar is what I will be getting, but other than that I haven’t the foggiest of what else. I’ll have the home theater in one room which I would surround sound, while in another room I would like speakers for music as well as outdoor speakers for music. My current outdoor speaker wires are not very good and would either replace them or have wireless outdoor speakers. I’d like to be able to play music via Alexa and Apple Music.
Why doesn’t the https://www.sonos.com/da-dk/shop/shelf-one-play1 offer wireless charging of mobiles put on the shelf?
Has anyone received their order placed on/around Boxing Day?
Hi,As a new customer looking at my first purchase, just trying to decide on which option of the following.1.Arcor2.Beam Gen 2 + One SLx2.I have listened to the beam and the arc in the shop and can tell the difference but was unable to listen to 2xOne SL speakers with the beam to make a comparison.
Hey everyone, Im ive moved into a new home and working on getting my sound system dialed in. I have one balcony up and one outdoor space down, id like to have an outdoor speaker in each on different channels. Isnt it a bit excessive to buy 2 brand new amps and have them just powering one outdoor speaker? Can I get away with using the older sonos connect amp for each outdoor speaker? I also have 4 rooftop speakers up/2 down but will go with the newer amp here. Just hoping I dont have to splurge on newest hardware to power just one speaker. Would there be a big difference in sound quality between the amps when just powering one speaker? Thanks in advance.
