What to get

Hello- I just moved into a house after 15 years of condos and I want to maximize the space/sound.   We have an open floor plan on the first floor and listen to music a ton.  I am debating between these 3 Items and this is mostly for music: 1- Sonos Architecture In-Wall Speakers2- Sonos Arc by the TV above the fireplace (had a company come out and they said this would be the best sound and easiest to install)3- Beam by the tv I do have a bunch of one’s I can connect as well that could provide more sound.   Would welcome any feedback on best ideas/sound.   

Hi can someone pls share the serial numbers of the Sonos Five series. Gen 1, Gen 2, and Gen 3. For white and for Black.

Hi guys, so I’d like to know why the apple HomePod mini has a wider soundstage than the Sonos roam? In this photo I have attached, the Apple HomePod mini is on the left and the Sonos Roam is on the right. I heard the sound test too and played it on my Sonos play 5. The details in the song tracks seem to be wider and more present on the apple HomePod mini. But does anyone know why though? I was hoping the Sonos roam would blow the Apple HomePod mini out of the water with its sound quality but that does not seem to be the case. Very comparable sound quality it’s seems. It seems the apple HomePod mini is a little better for music with its wider soundstage.    

Hi all, I currently have Apple Music, a ZP80 (that is hooked up to a record player and a cd player) and two Play Ones and I wanted to know what I would have to upgrade to have the following things work:- Being able to control Sonos from Apple Music (I can only control Sonos from my S1 app and that thing is awful.) Could I control Sonos from Apple Music if I had other equipment? If not, is the S2 controller a lot better than S1?- Streaming lossless music from Apple Music to Sonos Speakers.- Streaming high-res music from Apple Music to Sonos Speakers. It sounds like this would require some sort of extra DAC hardware and I am guessing new Sonos speakers that could handle hi-res audio (I am assuming the newer speakers do). It sounds like Apple Music requires you to have an external DAC to stream hi-res now. Is that the case with all of the other services out there?Thanks so much for your help. You guys are great at getting me the answers I need.-Clint 

I am considering buying a Bluetooth turntable in order to revisit some dusty old vinyl. I am particularly interested in the Project T1 BT.I do not want to connect any additional cabling into the turntable.I only currently have Wi-Fi SONOS speakers in my system and was hoping that I could buy either a MOVE or ROAM bluetooth speaker to connect to the turntable and additionally use as a ‘bridge’ to enable playing of the vinyl on my other wi-fi only SONOS speakers. Can anyone confirm if this is possible to mix output via both bluetooth and non bluetooth SONOS speakers?Thanks  

I am setting up some outdoor speakers for my pool area. Additonally, I sometimes also set up a projector outside, plug a chromecast in and stream sports. For audio, I had a 3.5mm cord to connect the projector to a cheap portable speaker. That said, Im hoping to take advantage of the outdoor speakers for audio. I purchased a nice Onkyo receiver, with the plan being to to plug a chromecast to the receiver, have it power the the speakers, and use a wireless hdmi transceiver I own to get video to the projector.  THEN someone mentioned Sonos and Im down a rabbit hole and looking for suggestions.  My assumption is I still need the receiver bc of the streaming video to the projector part. Using a port to involve the sonos ecosytem (add soundbar that i can move between the projector and my actual home tv) is out it seems bc Im reading there would be a huge delay.  Is that correct? Would connecting the outdoor speakers via Amp (not connected to the receiver) then a Port to the receiver (for han

Hi I would like to buy some new speakers but have a set of decks and a huge Rotel stereo thats old but barley used so want to retain the separates. What Sonos speakers will work with my set up and be able to withstand the 200wpc please?

I clicked upgrade on one of my Sonos 1 by a mistake. I dont want to Trade it. Is it possible to undo this by not using The discount ticket?Can I still use The speaker or Will it disconnect or something? 

I have a Play 3 that I really like.  Is there something similar that can remain outdoors?  I would like music around my pool and have electrical outlets available.  My preference would be to use wifi or bluetooth with speakers that I plug into power.Does this exist?Thanks

Does anybody have any direct comparisons between the Beam and Yamaha YAS209?I can’t decide whether the Yamaha with it’s separate sub will outperform the Beam. I would consider adding IKEA Symfonisk to the Beam as surrounds but the budget does not stretch to the Sonos sub. Yamaha is £319 atm and Sonos £399 + 2 x£89 for a pair of Symfonisks.  Existing user of a Sonos One (love it) and have an old Yamaha TSS15 5.1 theater setup for TV which has served well over the years, so wanting to move forwards from this. TIA  

I have a pair of Fives that are used exclusively for listening to music. They’re hooked up to a turntable and a dedicated CD player. The Fives can go really low. That said, would I gain much if I added a subwoofer into the mix?Thoughts?

hello Everyone, Need some advice/guidance. Looking to create a whole home music system. Looking to get one Sonos 5 (for my family room area) and a Sonos 5 (for my Living room area) - both in the lower level of the house. And a few Sonos Ones for the upper level rooms of my house.  Also looking to add some rich bass to the set up and therefore looking to get a Sonos sub. Will one sub do the trick and have enough bass for the entire lower level if I kept it in one room in the lower level. Or does each room require a different sub. Also, any suggestions on placement of the sub. The lower levels rooms are all connected through large open doorways. Thanks you all in advance. Sandeep

Hello! Was looking at the financial reports Sonos published this morning and read a transcript online, saw that Sonos products pricing are going to be increased… anyone has any news on this?  

Hola, necesito una recomendación… actualmente tengo 2 Sonos ONE y una Sonos FIVE, las 3 bocinas las tengo integradas en un mismo espació. ¿Para ese mismo espacio con qué me recomiendan complementar? con otra Sonos FIVE para tener los 2 pares estéreos (ONE y FIVE) o mejor complemento con una Sonos SUBWOOFER.

Does anyone know where I can get the mounting template for the Sonance in-ceiling speakers (I can’t wait till they arrive to get the ones in box) We are building a house and need to cut the holes next week for 6 speakers. I’ve searched the website and raised a ticket but that could take a week...

Hi all!I have a Playbar, a pair of Play 3’s and a SUB on a S2 app. I plan to buy used Play 5 gen1 and use it in a trade in program. What do I have to do? Regiser it in S2 app or install S1 just for the Play 5?Thank youNeven

Hi, if i have a turnable and I would like to get additional sonos to connect to it or group it with the rest of my system. What should i get? my area is quite small.

I am having an in ground pool built in the backyard in about 2 months.  I have an area on the south side of the pool that will be a landscape bed and will have outdoor speakers installed.  These will be hard wired speakers being run by the Sonos Amp.  The Amp will be installed in my basement with wires run out to the speakers by the pool.  On the west end of the pool I will have a gazebo with a TV installed.  I’d like to use the outdoor speakers for the audio from the TV as well but not sure how I’d hook the entire system up to the Amp?!   Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks

I'm a Sonos newbie looking for a little advice.I'm finishing my basement, basically a big open room.I am planning on doing surround sound in the seating area w/ an Arc and two of the sonance in ceiling speakers for the rear. Ceiling is a drop ceiling. Am I correct in assuming that the speakers are too heavy for the ceiling tiles and need a bracket. Is there a recommended bracket for the speakers?

Hello everyone,I am new to Sonos and considering Sonos for my home theatre.  I really like the look of the in-wall and/or in-ceiling speakers, but they seem to recommend their home theatre package with the arc, subwoofer and what appears to be two portable speakers.  I am confused on what to do because I want the best possible sound quality but also would prefer to use the Arc/subwoofer with either the in-wall or in-ceiling speakers.  Suggestions please!  Thanks

Hello--I have a home with a 10 year old wired ceiling speaker system with about 7 different zones.  All those zones are connected in the basement to one integrator--all the speaker wires go into that device.  A main screen exists on a 1st floor wall where you can select which source you want to play in any room.  For example, I can select “kitchen” then “ipod” (OMG) or “back deck” and “FM radio”.  There is an AUX based docking station mounted in the wall there for a 1st Gen Ipod.  (I imagine this was very hot in 2010)  Because this system isn’t current, we end up either using FM Radio on it; or just using one of our four Alexa devices to play the music from a source we like (Pandora, Amazon Music, etc).Note: also wired into that integration system is a DVD player, a BlueRay player, and what looks like a Serius/XM receiver--all sources for different zones that have either TVs or just ceiling speakers.How do I use this existing system of wired speaker zones, to upgrade to something that

I currently have a single One and contemplating purchase of a Beam plus 2 x symfonisk speakers for TV surround. My question is whether it is possible to use the Beam / symfonisk combo for TV and also separately use the One and one of the symfonisks as a stereo pair for music?what would people recommend so that I can get ‘the best of both worlds’ with this combo? Maybe Beam plus One for music would be a better bet?thanks

Can sonos amp connect 4 “normal” speakers (2 Mini pods and 2 micro pods) and a subwoofer?

I have 5 products offering the upgrade discount. I definitely want to upgrade the play 5 but does anyone know if I select only the play 5 just now, will the upgrade option still be available for the others afterwards?Trying to figure out if the upgrade option is a one time thing, and therefore worth choosing to upgrade them all just now (to secure the discount but actually replace them further down the line). Or, if I chose just play 5 for now, then would the remaining 4 products still show the upgrade offer afterwards?

Hello, all. I’m brand new to Sonos and have been doing research on upgrading/updating my current 5.1 home theater setup (LG OLED55B7P TV, Yamaha receiver, center, front surrounds mounted to wall, in-ceiling rear surrounds, JBL subwoofer). My goal was to see if I can eliminate the Yamaha receiver (I no longer have any other components connected to it), and also eliminate the center and two front surround speakers … but continue to use the rear surround in-ceiling speakers and my existing subwoofer.I thought that Sonos Arc (for center + fronts) and Sonos Amp (for rears and sub) would get me there … but it sounds like I will NOT be able to use my existing JBL subwoofer in this configuration, is that correct?  Because (if my understanding is correct) the Amp will disable the subwoofer connection when the speakers that are connected to the Amp are used as surrounds?If that is the case … then, damn!!  So close.  I won’t be pulling the trigger on Sonos.  Are there any other options that would
