Hi, I have a Sonos 5.1 setup. It’s Arc, Sub and two Play Ones. All in all I am very happy with it. But my room is kinda big, 60 m2 with 5 meter ceiling. Here’s the question: what would be the best upgrade: to get a second sub or replace the Ones with Fives? I should mention that I also use the system for music quite a lot, and have it set up so the Ones and the Sub are the most audible. I like listening to music in a 5.1 setup; you can sort walk around inside the soundfield rather than sit in a narrow sweetspot of stereo-speakers. (I have a very serious vinyl stereo-setup, that sounds better than Sonos (you know: tubes and preamps, poweramps and cables and phonostages, etc.) but I still use Sonos for 80% of my music listening). Hope this makes sense. Thanks
hiI need speakers for a rooom 5 meters lenght and 4.5 meters wide and 2.88 height but it is unable to wire to source (wireless data connection required. Whether it's bluetooth, wifi or any other technology) Allows power supply (no batteries required). • Must give good audio throughout the room
I’m currently planning on buying another Sonos Move, as I am very satisfied with the sound quality.With the goals of being able to use it anywhere I can (portable) and having the best sound possible, should I wait for a new edition of Sonos Move? Or maybe consider a different model I’m not aware of?Wait for a new edition or not to wait? Any news on when it may come?
Hi,I have never owned any Sonos stuff before and was looking at buying some for home cinema experience. I have SkyQ with Sony TV and was going to buy a beam or Arc but then read all the stories about lip sync issues with Sky. If spending that much I just want something that will just plug in and works.Does everyone have lip sync issues or is it only the exception?Thanks
I can buy a Sonos Arc sub - Gen 1 for $400 Canadian versus a new sub Gen 3 for over $1000 Canadian after tax.From what I understand the Sub Gen 1 will work with the Sonos Arc and will work with Sonos app S2 system. Obviously there have been changes but from what I have been able to learn, maybe the changes are not too significant.What would you do?
Is it possible to use multiple upgrade credits on one product?
I have a very old analog turntable with a preamp and an old Panasonic “smart” TV that has NO Bluetooth (yes it’s old). I want to be able to both connect the turntable and stream sound from the TV to a Sonos speaker system. Can anyone make suggestions?
I have a first gen Beam connected to my LG OLED via ARC. I also have generation 1 One in my dining room that doesn’t get used much. I only use the TV and internal apps, no other HT gear. I’m thinking about using the One in a HT setup with the Beam. I’m not bothered about a sub at this point, the beam and One have adequate bass for now, but might do later. Is this a good idea?What do I need and what should I buy? Another One Gen 1, gen 2 or SL? Would an Ikea Sonos speaker work, or would it need to be paired with another speaker the same? Do that Sonos ikea speakers even work in this way? Thanks Also can a forum mod please fix my title typo. Thanks!
Hello 👋🏻My NAS from 2011 (ReadyNAS NV+) died recently. I will be buying a new NAS but have not chosen a brand yet. My entire Sonos system (Play 5s, Connect, Bridge, and Beam) is S1 controlled. Would a new, more modern NAS work with S1? I don’t plan on buying new speakers yet (though tempted, but one project at a time). Anything particular I should consider when choosing a new NAS? Don’t need anything fancy, just for music. Thank you.Angie 🐾
Hi folks Ling time Sonos user. First post ever. Appreciate any input/feedback/opinions. Thinking best response wins a $20 Amazon gift card. Lol Trying to get other opinions on possibly setup ideas and placing what speakers where. WiFi connectivity is not a problem in any room. Below is what I have currently: The main tv (living room area) is about the only thing set with arc, sub, and 2 new symphonics just bought today for surround to free up Ones elsewhere. After that trying to figure what to place where in regards to larger attached area (dining room) off the main tv/arc and the 2 bedrooms (master and guest ) along with back porch/sunroom where I’ve been using the Move. Here are some pics and room sizes Room where arc, sub gen 3 , and symphonics are is pretty set (living room). It’s the larger space attached/adjoin (call it dining room) to the main tv (living room) that is challenging Have had second sub tied into the arc (living room) as well which sounds great. Just tried pairing g
Hello, I have a Playbase connected to my TV and a single Play:5 (Gen 2) connected to a turntable in the same room. Is it possible to buy a second Play:5 and use them as rear speakers in a surround sound setup with the Playbase? Thanks in advance!
Hi all, I’m looking to fill a living room with quality music sound. What’s better, 1 ‘Five’ or 2 ‘Ones’? Thanks for suggestions. M
Hello there everyone About two years ago a wonderful relative of mine bought me a Sonos One (the one with the voice assistant built-in). I’ve absolutely loved it, especially as being a student I’ve moved to a bunch of different places in the meantime. Its small size and wifi functionality makes it easy to move around. I also have an ear condition which makes using earphones and headphones for longer than an hour extremely painful, so having a great quality speaker I can play from my Mac/iPad/iPhone and really enjoy my music has been a joy.But I’m wondering what the logical next step is in this setup. I don’t have a high income of course as a student, so what would be the best Sonos product to get to take listening to music to the next level? Would it be simply another Sonos One to go for a ‘stereo’ setup? Or is it better to just try and save up and scrape together the money for maybe a Sonos Five? I was tempted by the Sonos Beam as I do watch TV/game and obviously using headphones for
Looking to install two 65” TV’s side by side on the wall in basement. Using the two separate TV’s for 2 sports events, video game streaming w/ sports on other tv, etc. Has anyone found a good 3rd party switch that will allow you to toggle the audio back and forth depending on which TV you would like to play through use of a single Arc? I’d like to buy a single Arc for the basement and have the ability to toggle audio back and forth. Other option will be just buy two Beam’s and have them mounted under each TV. Thanks!
I currently own a Sonos Arc that I use in a main entertaining room in my house. I am looking for suggestions on what additional speakers I should add to enhance the sound. Also, looking to play music louder.
I'm looking at the ceiling speaker package with Amp. What size room would these speakers be appropriate for? Can anyone comment on sound quality compared to say a set ofPlay5s?
This is strictly my opinion based upon my listening experience. I do not work for the companies whose products are mentioned nor do I receive any monetary compensation or gifts. Although, if a publicly traded company said company may be part of my stock port-folio.I've lived with a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Turntable in Black (Sonos Edition) mated to a Sonos Amp, Sonos Sub and Definitive Technology D7 speakers w/off-set tweeters ($499.99/Pair) for two years. Total package cost $2696.99. Granted some high-end turntables start at $1200 on the low-end...so in the grand scheme of things my package is modest at best.However, that’s not the point of this post. The question to debate is...should you be satisfied with a turntable that has a built-in Preamp or one that requires a separate (outboard) Preamp. Luckily the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Turntable in Black (Sonos Edition) allows you to use Line-in with it’s built-in Preamp or switch to Phono and by pass it to use your own (separate) Preamp. The

Hello, anyone have a referral for a Sonos consultant/installer in Scottsdale AZThank you
This is an odd questions but as a relatively new sonos user Im loving the community so I though I’d ask…..I bought 2 x Sonos ones (gen 2) a few months back and fell in love. Bought a new (half decent) turntable and a Sonos five to plug into - all working well. My intention was to buy another five to run as a stereo pair for the turntable but in Australia stock is zero so I haven’t been able to buy one. So strangely I am listening to the stereo ones and the five (vertical) TOGETHER whilst I wait for stock. Because I have them set up together it’s easy to compare the stereo ones separately with the five (vertical and horizontal). They are all tuned via the app too. Generally the stereo ones sound much better than the single five. Would that be right? It seems odd to switch from the stereo ones to the five and prefer the ones considering the five is a much more HiFi speaker. Obviously when I play them together the five fills in some bottom end but, I just assumed I would switch to the f
Whe it start Sonos Black Friday this year?
would it be possible at all to have 1 sonos 1 speaker (the one with Alexa built in) and use that to play music on all the othersie i ask the sonos 1 to play a song and the sound then comes out of all of the sonos 1s?i ask because ive got 6 Sonos 1 plays dotted about downstairs so rather than sell all of them and get the new ones it would be helpful to be able to play music through them all at once but with only the new sonos 1 taking the commands from the built in Alexa or would i be better buying an Amazon Echo or dot and setting it all up that way? thank you
Just bought the Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB Turntable to Five and need some advice please:I want to connect both the CD player and turntable to the 5 without having to swop cables every time...is this possible? If so what type of cable should i get? Any recommendations for the cd player itself….is there a more suitable one for the 5?Appreciate your help. Thank you
I am looking for a solution that would allow me to use headphones, preferably wireless along with the Sonos Arc
I currently have a play 3 in my bedroom and it’s great for music. I’m going to upgrade the sound on my TV so I’ve considered buying a Beam. How is the Beam compared to the Play 3 for music? If I buy a beam I will move the Play 3 to another room. Will the sound quality for music on the Beam be comparable to the Play 3? If not I’ll just buy a lower cost sound bar for the TV and keep the Play 3 for music.Thanks
