I have a Sonos Amp and I’m running S2. Right now I have two sets of wired speakers attached to the amp, but I cannot control them separately. What’s the least expensive way to do that? If I have to by another amp just for one set of the speakers, can I buy a used one and see them in the same app
Hi everyone,im in the process of doing a family room remodel and want to take the opportunity to have a better HT setup.Some background: I am not an audiophile (appolgies ) I have little kids Something that is simple that works through the TV is my preferable approach (utopia of 1 remote). I really don’t want to have an amp or somehting I need to switch on and play with to watch tvI intend to get a Samsung Frame TV with a Sonos Arc.This was really all I wanted todo, however I have an open concept living area, the family room and kitchen are one large space. There is no wall between the rooms, the couch is the separator.Im concerned about noise from the kitchen impacting the ability to watch tv. I thought maybe having some speakers in the ceiling above the couch may help with the noise transfer and make watching tv more enjoyable and help cancel out some of the noise coming from the kitchen.I see sonos have ceiling mount speakers. Am I able to wire these in and have them work with the
Decent separate amp/speakers have departed to the party in the sky. Now looking for new option that will play music decently (with occasional party!) in a largish living room, but also keep kids happy with better TV sound. understand need beam for TV (no analogue connector on new LG tv), but do we go 2x1 and sub, or 2x5 instead. if looking for music for occasional party what would work best (old enough that don't need club level volume, but still like a bit of punch). ideally would have spent 1k, rather than 1.5 or more! Don't tell the kids, but music more important than perfect surround sound for TV. we mostly use Spotify.
I’m thinking about getting a NAD C700 but want to continue to use my Sonos wireless speaker system throughout my house rather thank a wired speaker or BlueOS wire speaker set-up. Can I run an RCA link from the NAD c700 Pre-Out to the Sonos Port In and be able to stream the music to my sonos wireless speakers? Thanks for the help.
I have the Beam & 2 Ones which I have set up as surround, they are all TV side of room, to add to side where we sit would you suggest a Five or another couple of One’s, want the sound rather than just the bass which sub provides
Any hacks for connecting my Bluetooth turntable to my Sonos One?
Moved into new place with the typical Bose (dumb) speakers in the ceiling...wires hanging out of wall in cabinet. I have 3 Sonos speakers working great now - but hate to see these existing built-in speakers go to waste. How can I use them as part of my system? Assume there’s some device I’d need to purchase, then hook up to the speaker wires? Info I’ve found online is a bit sketchy - so I will appreciate the specifics on how to make this happen. THANK YOU
I have a sonos beam and wish to connect it to a cd-player. Is this impossible or can I buy some sort of box that the cd-player can be connected with, which also connects to a sonos beam?
Hi there, this is my first post here, as until now i was very happy with my Sonos 5 / Fives. Now the Situation is changing, therefore i need some advice. I will be moving to a new place soon, which is oddly shaped and smaller than the current one. Current Setup: 2 Sonos Five Current State: Happy with the output, but the Fives do need to be at least at 40% to deliver performance. I currently do have the space and freedom to accommodate the fives and crank up the volume.Upcoming: I will move to a smaller place and the Kids will be residing right behind the wall where the TV and the speakers are located. Question: Interested in downgrading my fives to one sl + sub (no need for smart). Reason: Less space, can not listen that loud anymore.Space: Approx. 370 sq.ft. The listening will happen at the couch and at the table. Now i might add another pair of one SL in the kitchen area down the road. But the question is if the the ones with the sub are better suited in such a scenario. How do the
Good morning!I want to buy a portable Sono with bluetooth. I like Move but I have a Beam and I think it is not compatiblefor surround sound. What do you recommend me to have both. Thank you
I placed my order a couple days ago and even placed another one to see if it changed anything but I have 0 information about my order. By this I mean I didn't receive any confirmation email or anything. I don’t know what to do :(
J'aimerais me procurer un sonos beam 2. Est-ce que le son sera bon s'il est connecté avec mon téléviseur intelligent Samsung 65 pouces et un plafond cathédrale haut de 22 pieds? Je ne recherche pas nécessairement un son extraordinaire, mais meilleur que celui de la télé. Merci.
Hi,I am looking for a suitable soundbar that can be connected to an amphifier / CD player / turntable. I am old-school, own more than 3000 CDs and 1000 Vinyl and even though I don’t use any streaming services, an additional bluetooth option would be perfect to play mp3 from my phone / iPod. This combined with Atmos would be fantastic.Any recommendations are very much appreciated.Thanks!
They always say that there are no silly questions, well here is my challenge.Just been reading up on the Sonos radio station, I already have an Apple Music subscription for me and my partner which we currently listen to on our current Sonos system, is there any advantages to paying for this service? Do any of you guys have multiple streaming services?Cheers in Advance Andy
I have done loads of reading and know the generic answers but noticed the hive mind is really good on more specific scenarios too. So…. My daughter kindly bought me the world’s most expensive present… Graceland on vinyl which has got me experimenting with a turntable and buying more albums that force me to sit and listen. 🤷 😍I’m in a small British cottage with less than ideal places to put speakers. I bought a Five with the turntable. On its own, it sounded nice but not better than the single One you can see on the shelf. I really can’t put my finger on why and tried re-doing Trueplay several times. I tried a stereo pair of Ones vs the Five and obviously that sounded great. I was all up for getting a Port and popping another One in the top left corner using a wall mount.Thing is I’ve been able to find a pair of Fives second hand for a great deal, albeit a bit more than I had planned.Although I know the Fives would be great in a big space would they actually be bad in a small space?
Does the Playbar wall mount work with the Arc?
We are having an extension built with a sloped ceiling, the room will be about 9m x 4m. we want a tv on the wall at the far end on the picture below with a Beam and want some surround speakers; currently thinking ceiling speakers wired to an Amp. My questions are:Will ceiling speakers sound odd in a sloped ceiling?How do we position and configure the speakers to give ok stereo for music and ok surrounds for tv?Will 2 speakers be enough in that size room?
Hi everyone, I’m new to this and have tried to find the answer elsewhere, but cannot fully satisfy myself that I’m finding the correct answer and would really appreciate any help you can offer.We are about to (potentially!) purchase the home cinema bundle - Arc, Subwoofer gen 3 and x2 One speakers. Now, from looking at other discussion boards on here I am already doubtful that we can arrange the speakers and possibly the subwoofer as planned…. we are planning to put cutout shelves in a stud wall that faces our sofa ( - it should never have been installed in the first place as they boxed in the emergency stopcock behind this, so needs some action anyway, but I digress..) Now our original plan was to have the x2 Sonos Ones on the left and right upper shelves, with the arc on the same shelf as the tv and the subwoofer on the very bottom shelf below the TV as per my diagram that I drew for the builder (please excuse my drawing ‘skills’!)I just wanted to keep everything as neat as possib
Hi,so I’m kind of new in the Sonos environment. I already own a Sonos Symfoniks from IKEA.… now I wanna get a little more serious. I would like to integrate all of my media together.i got a turntable with rca connectors2 very nice Denon analog speakersan Lg Oled smart tv with HDMI arc or optical audio out. I think I can also stream the audio out via wifi from the tv.And will be streaming music from IOS mobile device.how do I link all of this together? Would a Sonos Connect be enough or I got to go with Sonos amp… I suppose I would need a Sonos beam as well for the tv…I know it’s a lot of infos but any advice is welcome. thanksmarc
Hi, if i may ask how does sonos sound quality and clarity compare with bose as i have been so used to bose over the years as had their products so really have no experinece with sonos?Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated
Hi,I was planning on buying an Arc to listen to music in my living room and to watch TV (65”). In other rooms that communicate with the living I could place other sonos speakers to play the same music.The only thing is that I realize I have no side walls in the living that the arc can use. On the left, the wall must be 8m away, on the other side 5m but the return path will be blocked. I suppose I would need front side speakers, but that is not supported ifaik. Rear speakers will probably help a bit but not a lot I suppose.I could opt for a standard home theatre setup from another brand with separate speakers and connect a port to listen to music. I am however afraid that this home theatre will cause latency due to processing when the same audio is played in the kitchen or office space. I could open the arc, disconnect the side speakers and connect separate ones…not sure if it has been done before and it is a bit scary...Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks
hi, does anybody connect Sonos AMP + Bowers & Wilkins 705 Signature how about the sound?? I have Onkyo A-933 amp and with combination of B&W705. Now considering to change A-933 to AMP . Still A-933 is working well, I wonder if I should buy Sonos Port or Amp. I have an interesting to connect TV out and B&W for watching movie or else. So, I am thinking Amp is better than Port, but I wonder if the sound quality of combination of B&W and AMP. Of course, sound quality is subjective matter,,,but I would like to know if someone had this experience.
Hello I have a sonos bar which has worked fine until optical sound broker. I have purchased a analogue to digital converter plugged it into my jack output on my tv bust sound does not workis there a better option or will this just not work
For our basement TV room, which is quite long but narrow (see pictures), I intend to use a Beam 2 sound bar resting in front of the TV. The smain viewing sofa is against the wall facing the TV, about 10 feet away.I am considering whether to supplement the bar with a pair of One SL speakers, which would rest on either side of the television. But there wouldn’t be much separation between the Beam and the SL’s -- would that be a waste of time, or would the SL’s meaningfully enhance the stereo and overall quality of sound? One option is to bore some holes in the dividers and place the speakers on the adjacent sections of the bookcase, providing more spatial separation for the three components. Would this make a meaningful improvement?I don’t want to place the speakers back against the wall with the sofa -- no outlets there and too much clutter. Thanks for any guidance!Albert
