I am considering buying a Play 3 speaker with a smaller support speaker like a Sonus 1. One concern I have is, can updates with the iphone, make the Sonus incompatible?
Noticed That a local retailer has the playbase open box for 200.00 or new 286.00 (USD). I know that this is a discontinued item, and nowhere near the Arc, but the price seems right, I already have a pair of Play 1s in my living room. Think I could get a few years of enjoyment out of it and would it add any additional dimension to music if paired up with the play 1s. It would easily accommodate my current setup both physically and astetically fit my Any thoughtsappreciated...
I’m moving soon into a place with 5 wired, in-ceiling speakers, but also have 2 sonos play:1s currently. I was thinking of getting the Sonos amp to utilize both, but not sure if that would be the best way to connect and use all of these speakers (or if that’s even possible). Or I guess I could use 2 of the ceiling speakers and my 2 sonos speakers to create surround too I think. Let me know if anyone has any advice!
My TV: Samsung un40h5003afStreaming Box: Mi Box 3My room: It's a fairly large room (25x15 feet) though I don't need to fill it all (neighbors). The TV and the couch are about 10 feet apart. The TV has 2 HDMI ports (one used for the Mi Box, the other says “HDMI/DVI” but I’ve had an Xbox on it with success in the past) and an optical out (no ARC). The spec says that it supports DTS digital output, Dolby Digital Plus output, Dolby Pulse output.The manual [1] says “The SPDIF (Sony Philips Digital InterFace) outputs an uncompressed digital audio signal when you connect the digital audio jack on the back of the TV to a digital audio in jack on a receiver or home theater. Audio Format: You can select the Digital Audio output (SPDIF) format. The available Digital Audio output format may differ depending on the input source. ✎ By connecting the TV to a receiver or home theater with Dolby Digital and 5.1ch speakers and selecting Dolby Digital, you can maximize your interactive 3D sound experienc
This is 3 questions in 1 post. Can I keep my old products (or sell them or give them to family?) when taking advantage of the upgrade or do I need to send them back in order to take advantage of the offer?If selling/giving away, do I just do a factory reset? Do I then need to dis-associate them from my account?Is the Sonos Boost mandatory if moving to S2?
Hi there, I am designing a home expansion to create a Family room and a Terrace. In the Family room I am considering a sonos arc, sonos sub and 2 One’s for surround. For the terrace, two passive outdoor speakers powered by a Sonos Amp. My question is: can I pair the Sonos Sub with the Amp wirelessly (moving the Sub outside of course) when I am in the Terrace to enjoy the music in stereo from the outdoor speakers with the sub through the app?

Does Sonos Beam work with Samsung 7 Series UN65TU700DF?
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. I am just learning about Sonos and how it works.I would like to know if the following scheme makes sense, and if i have the equipment correct.I am trying to use the minimum amount of equipment.My understanding is each zone needs its own Amp, except if they are sound bars.Zone 1 is meant to serve mostly the kitchen but allow people in dining area to hear the speakers as well. It is connected to its own Amp.Zone 2 is meant to be primarily for the TV, I am hoping that it can also play in sync with zone 1 when desired via the Sonos App.Zone 3 is for the outdoor patio. I am not sure how the speakers should be mounted to serve the most area. Zone 3 needs to be able to play its own sound, and sync with Zone 1 when desired. It is connected to its own Amp.The master bedroom will have a sound bar that is completely independent from all other Zones.Is this correct and possibly? Is there anyway to reduce the number of Amps needed?
With the Sonos Arc, can I use a Play One and a Sonos One as the rear surround speakers?Do I need a Sub or does the Arc provide the Sub qualities?
There’s no location in my space for a sub woofer but wondering if surround speakers like SL’s are worth it or a waste of time. Thoughts?
I have purchased a Sonos Beam and very happy with it but unfortunately my TV will not connect as it does not have HDMI Arc or optical out. So I am upgrading my TV but Most TVs now seem to have HDMI EArc and not just HDMI Arc will my new Sonos Beam work with HDMI EArc?Are there any TV brands that have issues that I should avoid.Thank You

Hi Guys, I'm updating a friends Sonos products and just wanted to clarify that his ceilings speakers will connect to the amp via the banana clips and bee used via arc so sound the tv etc. If I then decide I want to listen to the Play 1 in another room I can then group the amp with them so it will play the same through said ceiling speakers? And then ungroup to use again normally with the tv?

Hi I just purchased two AMPs one for indoor and another for outdoor use. I also want to insert a wall mounted volume control for each set to be able to quickly turn down volume if needed. Can anyone advise what volume controls are compatible with the Sonance indoor and outdoor speakers?
I’m no audiophile, but there is a noticeable difference in quality between the Five and the Beam plus Sub when playing music. Am I expecting too much from the Beam and Sub given they are not designed for music? Am I setting things up incorrectly? Thanks folks

Hi,I am in process of a remodel and going to be purchasing a whole home ceiling speaker system. I will have four zones with 4 Sonos amps which is pretty self explanatory. but my issue is in my living room I will have it set up as a 5.1 surround with an arc and a sub (all Sonos). So my understanding is if I do this then I can not independently of the tv stream music on those ceiling speakers through my phone. I have two questions about this:If I use to stream through the tv so I can get the ceiling speakers to work. Then can I turn off only the arc? Also can I get it to play the same music as the rest of the house? this is the best option. How can I have those ceiling speakers still play music independently even after being part of the surround set up? I don’t mind spending extra money but I need this to work. Can I buy a 2nd amp and have the same ceiling speakers be part of a surround and also attached to another amp simultaneously?
Hi I need some advice,I have a Sonos Beam with two symfonisk as Surround (a 5.0 system). Should I upgrade with a SUB to get a 5.1 system or should a buy a Sonos Arc to get Dolby atoms but with no SUB?
