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.
What speaker by itself sounds better? Move or Play3? Noticeable difference? I'm assuming two play 3’s would sound better than a single Move?Thanks!
I have had two fives, for a while, and decided to take the plunge and add the sub as well. Just got it today and after placing it between the two stereo fives and doing a trueplay session, I tried different music types to test what benefits you get. I found out that value depends vastly on music choice. Basically, you need recordings that actually have those very low frequencies in them. Not only electronic but also “analogue” jazz and classic work well if there are “base” instruments. Also, when listening at low volume, the sub helps lift those low frequencies without having to turn up the volume. Try e.g. Billie Eilish’s “Your Power” for a better experience with the sub.What music do you think works well with a sub and two stereo fives?
For my future basement renovations i’m thinking if I have left over budget in the project to buy some in-celling speakers and in-wall speakers but, I like the aesthetics of the in-celling speakers better so will the sound be compromised and not being tuned correctly beacuse they were designed differently verses in-wall + in-celling speakers? I could have all the speakers be celling but people say that sounds less room-filling than having celling and wall speakers. My current plan is to have a pair in-celling, pair in-wall, and a sonos beam.
Considering upgrading my system from S1 to S2 but slightly nervous that no sooner have I done so but Sonos will release S3 products that are not backwards compatible with S2 products. Does anyone have any thoughts or insight into whether such a release will happen, and if so how far into the future. S2 was released I think about 10 years after S1 so by that logic we are not far off an S3 release. If there is a future new gen on the horizon I'll hold off from upgrading now.
I have an LG OLED55CXPUA TV and I'm using the Beam as my audio device. It works perfectly thru the ARC HDMI port of my TV. However, I want to extract either optical or analog audio using a HDMI Audio extractor and feed the HDMI thru to the Beam. However I can't get any audio thru to the Beam or out of the optical or analog outputs. Does anyone know a brand or model of an extractor that will work? thks/Roger
I’m designing a new apartment and figuring out the best Sonos setup. I do have a bunch of products but want to do it right. Whats ideal setup for each room?To use wireless only? Or a mixture of wired and wireless?Thanks
I have just purchased Sonos beam gen 2 and i was wondering what speakers i should add for the best performance
I just got myself a new Sub (gen 3) and I use it with 2 x Play:3 paired as stereo. Wow! What a difference the Sub makes!I am now considering to replace the two Play:3 with two new Sonos Five (gen 2).Question is: Is it worth the investment? Will two Sonos Five instead of Play:3 significantly improve the experience?
Hi all, I’m currently setting up my Sonos system and would appreciate your views on the best streaming apps to use. My understanding is that if you want 24-bit streaming, the options are Amazon Music Unlimited Ultra HD and Qobuz. Other services like tidal offer lossless 16-bit (CD quality). Any suggestions as to what’s the best route, including whether I’ll even be able to tell the difference between 24-bit/16-bit lossless/standard streaming? Many thanks, Justin
Is there a Sonos device that i can use with my existing (passive) speakers AND add a wireless sub..?
My kid has X-Box and PS5. Will they both play through the Sonos immersive Beam that I am going to order for my new LG TV?
