What to get

Hello, I have been using Sonos products for quite some time. Currently I own a Playbase, a Sub and 4 Play1/One. I would like to change the setup to a single room in the future, with 1 Arc, 1 Sub & 2 Fives.The Fives would be surrounds when watching TV.For music playback I would like to not have sound coming from the TV area. Can the Arc be muted while playing music? Anyone got experience with similar setups? 

Hi there I'm considering swapping my move and roam in for 2x ones and something else due to having trouble with the new in wir d products and my wifi just a pain and don't need them would rather a couple wired ones is it possible to swap? Don't have boxes for them but have receipts, brought online from Sonos themselves.

Having just spent another hour and a half trying to find a solution as to why my Sonos speaker randomly stopped working, then downloading app updates,rebooting, unplugging, replugging, resetting forgotten passwords and still not being able to play music like I was at the start of the day….I am wondeing if anyone can recommend a good wireless speaker to use instead of the ridiculously expensive good for nothing Sonos speaker I have? 

Patrick Spence mentioned early in the year either in an earnings call or interview that they were going to release two new products this year. So I guess I am just looking for clarification as to what those new products officially are and if we can expect anything else. By my count we had this year:Roam Ikea Picture Frame Speakers?? Beam-Gen 2?? Ikea Lamp Speakers-Gen 2 (not officially released yet I believe)??Do we know what is the second product? Or is their something else, that “one more thing...” I personally am of the camp that wants a set high end over the ear headphones.

I have 2 Play:1’s and I want to connect them to a Vizio Smart TV. What do I need? Connect, ConnectAmp, Soundbar? Thanks. 

Can someone please let the customer base know when Sonos plans to get their supply chain issues resolved.  Common sense should have hit someone in the front office knowing the simple fact that when everyone is stuck in their houses, miserable, they are probably going to look to products that are going to improve their mental state.  Number 1 on that list is music and TV!  Perhaps it is time to begin manufacturing products on this side of the globe?  You moved your manufacturing from China to Malaysia however China is still controlling that supply market.  Actually China is controlling our entire country as well.  I own a custom AV installation company and we currently have 15 jobs waiting on your products to get completed.  Without them we can’t get paid- How about ramping up production before you lose your loyal following! 

I just bought the Arc and two SL1 surrounds. I’m happy with the TV audio but music lacks both the high and low definition that you hear with a wired system and amp. If I replace the two surrounds with a single Five speaker might that help? Also, can I adjust volume on the Five independent of Arc while listening to music? My living room is 18x 20 with 20’ ceilings.

I have a Beam used only for music - ie playing YouTube music.  I’m happy with the quality of sound but would like it to be louder. What’s the best speaker/s I could add to it to make it louder? Thank you. 

I recently purchased a Beam Gen 1 while being unaware that Gen 2 was right around the corner (still in the return window.) I like the sound of the Gen 1 for both cinema and music listening. Given my setup, I actually don’t care as much about the performance for cinema as I use the system  primarily for music. So, I’m thinking that features such as DTS and eARC are not as relevant for me. I also use my Beam on it’s own when watching movies and don’t activate any of my other speakers.That said, I want to make sure I’m getting the best product that I can. Is it worth returning my Beam Gen 1 and getting the Gen 2 if I primarily care about music performance? Will the Gen 2 be better or worse for music performance? The same? I’m having trouble distinguishing the difference, if there are a different amount of speakers, different size speakers, etc.

I have a system that was setup by an installer that is no longer available.  It consist of several of the white Connect:Amp that operate in wireless mode.  I would like to add an additional system to power some new outdoor speakers.  I don’t think the Connect;Amp are still available.  What product should I add?  It would be two speakers with about a 100 foot run of cable.  Thanks

Hello, everyone!I am currently using Sonos Arc with two Sonos One SL and a Sonos Sub. I am perfectly happy with this setup used for TV, but not so when listening to music. I find the stereo field too narrow from the front. As such, I am thinking of buying two Sonos Fives to widen the stereo image.First of all, is it even a good idea? Will incorporating two Fives into the setup (situated further apart than the width of Arc) a viable way to accomplish my goal?Secondly - will it be possible to configure all of the speakers into one setup? If not, is it possible to have two configurations (Arc+2xSL+Sub AND 2xFive+2xSL+Sub) and change them on-the-fly? Or will I have to manually reconfigure everything everytime I would like to change from “Movie Time” to “Music Time” (not a good scenario)?

Hi all,I was looking for some time for a new setup in my living room: have a simple system for music (streaming), TV watching, very occasionally movie (typically I watch movies with headphones not to disturb family and neighbours) and later add turntable. My primary choice was KEF LS50 Wireless II, but due to costs and usage simplicity I’ve chosen Sonos Arc to try (I have no other Sonos products, neither planning to get any, at the moment)And while Arc seems to be good for TV, and obviously movies sound much better, I am bit disappointed in its music performance. I am not audiophile by no means (just know good sound a bit), but to me music sounds very “uninspiring”, especially on low volumes. So the choices I am looking at the moment:Add Sub to Arc - I’ve read that music performance improves, specifically on low volumes, but I presume it will not do miracles (i.e. proper stereo). Also, in order to connect turntable, I would need to buy Port, which would increase the price closer to KEF

I've ordered the full ARC 5.1.2 system which is on back order until the end of Oct. My movie room is only 9m square (3m x 3m) and I've seen some reviews saying that your room needs to be at least 16m square to benefit from the sound as the system would be too overpowering for any rooms smaller than this, anyone have the full set up in a small room like mine? With the Beam 2 offering artificial Atmos I'm wondering if I'd be better swapping the Arc for the Beam 2 however there aren't any reviews in it yet and I'd want to know what the Atmos effect is like before making that decision. ​​​

Hi everyone, First time Sonos purchaser here! I recently purchased my very first condo and am hoping to have a Sonos setup in order to bring the music I love to life. I’d really appreciate this community’s help coming up with the ideal Sonos setup + which speakers I should buy.

Hi,I have one pair of Bose speakers currently on my Deck powered by Bose amplifier.I am planning to add another pair of speakers on my patio.I want to have the flexibility of able to control each pair separately - i.e., I want to be able to play same music on both pairs, or switch off one pair. Or even control volume on each pair.I am planning to buy two SONOS amp to do this and connect each pair separately to each SONOS Amp. Will it work? Will I be able to control each pair separately OR all together - Play same or different music on both pairs, or even turn off one pair.Also, for another pair of speakers, do I stick with BOSE outdoor speakers , or I can buy any other speaker with causing any interference?Thanks

Just had an aha moment today listening. I have a set of Play 1s (Blue Note Editions but same as other versions just a unique color) in my 12’ x 15’ Office. While normally I have these as background music as I am taking phone calls, working, etc. I had an opportunity to let the dogs out today as I was doing a bunch of cleaning in the office, no work. WOW, I just realized how incredible they sound when paired up with Sonos Radio HD (listening to Guitar Gods) station and turned up (maybe 25%). While one of them would be good enough in a room this size I just need the stereo channeling for my tastes and I was just blown away. The interplay, detail and the fine tuning that they have done with these in conjunction with it is just awesome. If you are ever in doubt between 1 or 2-get 2 you will never be sorry.

Hello, I am getting ready to purchase a Sonos ARC and a SUB.for surround speakers I am going to get the “In-Ceiling Set”https://www.sonos.com/en-us/shop/amp-and-ceiling-set.htmlWill these all work together? Does anyone have this setup? Are they happy with it?I was trying to find some docs on how I would connect the Sonos ARC and the AMP that comes with the “In-Ceiling Set”Thanks for any help 

Anyone know what the problem is with availability of the Sonos Beam in black?Consistently shown as out of stock and only available in white. Same problem with main stores. Is it just a supply problem for the UK or is it being discontinued? Hopefully not!

Bonjour j’ai des sonos sl qui fonctionne que avec le wifi mais je n’ai plus de box internet donc les sonos sl ne peuvent plus fonctionné si j’achète une Sonos beam brancher directement à la tv avec le hdmi est ce que les sonos sl pourront jouer de la music ou un film via une clés usb branché à la tv  . Mod edit - added English translation from Google Translate:Hello I have sl sonos that only works with wifi but I no longer have an internet box so the sl sonos can no longer work if I buy a Sonos beam connect directly to the tv with the hdmi is what the sonos sl will be able to play music or a movie via a usb key connected to the tv.

Is their a recommendation for a TV brand/model that has eARC capabilities that is reliable for receiving a Dolby atmos signal? Realize this is a loaded question but any recommendation on a good performer (s) would be helpful. Preferably, a TV that is “tried and true.” Thanks  

We have the following currently: 1x Playbar, 2x Play 1, and 2x One SL.My wife REALLY wants to just pick a CD from our collection and put it into a player an play. I have tried the ripped CD route and it just isn’t her cup of tea. I see that the Five can play CDs and for an extra $100 it makes sense to me to just get that instead of the Port. What CD player can someone recommend that doesn’t break the bank (I see Dennon and others for like $400 which seems excessive just for something to play CDs)? I guess it would need the 3.5mm jack output to go into the Sonos Five? Looking for recommendations that don’t involve ripping my CD collection and a decent CD player $100-200 that will work with Sonos Five

Good morning can anyone tell me is there any need to buy Sonos Amplifier I Currently  I have a Sonos Arc 2 Sl Ones and a Sonos Subwoofer GEN3 i really don’t know if there is any Advantage if so can you tell me please regards james 

Is there a workaround or do I need two subs?

I just purchased a Sonos Roam - probably my 9th piece of Sonos equipment. I tried to hook it up to my system and basically it says that I cant connect this thing unless I throw out all my old SONOS gear. Are you guys short on money or something? This just seem pretty pathetic for a real company to brick all their old equipment. My father has Bose speakers from the 70 that work great.... I just cant believe you would do this to your customers. Is there any way to just listen to this thing with my blue tooth or do I need to register and have the app? What about my friends... Do they need to register and have the app too? If I want to listen to this at my friends house and he has existing Sonos can I use it without him having to brick his old Sonos gear? So many questions abut your goal here??
