What to get

I'm confused over the upgrade discounts.I knew when S2 was announced, those that were not compatible got the 30% upgrade and i have 2 of those. But i now also see a Connect Amp, another Connect that are the newer versions OK with S2, giving 15%off. Why is that?Will the newer Connect Amps and Connect that are good for S2 now, somehow be no good for S2 in the future, and its Sonos way to try and get you off them now? Or can I be confident they will always be ok on S2 app? 

Roam is arriving shortly, and I was wondering if there are any plans for a discrete wall mount? It would be great to be able to put it somewhere which is not a table or desk! 

I am switching out my old sound/speaker system in my 1400 sq. ft. hair salon.  No more ceiling speakers (6).   What I need is help with the system, I’m completely confused.  Do I need the Five Wireless and then bundle with several OneSL?  If so, how many?  They will be installed on top of the styling tower stations.  Thanks for your help!

Graag ervaring van personen die al de roam gebruiken. Volgens verschillende topics zie ik veel klachten betreffende batterijduur die geen  10 u en ook geen 10 dagen in stand-by. Klopt dit ? Of zijn er gebruikers die hier geen problemen mee hebben? Mod Edit: Added English translation:Like experience from people who already use the roam. According to various topics I see many complaints regarding battery life that is not 10 hours and not 10 days in standby. Is this correct ? Or are there users who have no problems with this?  

Our Canton DM5 soundbar has recently packed in after 6 years, unfortunately i cants get it repaired. We have a pair of Sonos speakers in the lounge paired in stereo, a One model ,the other an SL, they are both controlled by a Amazon Echo Dot. I was thinking of maybe buying a Sonos Beam, but i wouldn't want it connected in any way to the speakers we have, neither of us are interested in surround sound or cinema sound. Would we be able to just have the Beam soundbar for the TV with no Alexa on it., and in no way linked to the stereo pair. Another option is a Sonos Playbar, that would be a refurb one from Sonos , i did have a demo on one of these a good few years back but couldn't justify the price then. Any advice appreciated

Currently have Beam with new TV. Want to get Roam for music and need to know if I can use Bluetooth between Roam and Beam (the audio push) when the TV/Beam is turned off.

I’m hoping someone from Sonos can check out my order and give me an ETA on shipping.Tried contacting Sonos via the online email form, but have had no answer from them at all. 

So here is the situation. I have a beam and two sonos 3's in my living room. They are on S2. I really want to play my vinyl on sonos but can't afford to spend that much. Someone will sell me a play:5 (1st gen). If I get that, will I be able to plug my vinyl player into that speaker and it play through all my sonos speakers? I understand I might have to downgrade to S1 but from what I read that isn't that difficult or an issue. Any advice would be very welcomeThanks 

Hello,I would like to trade up sonos bridge to get 30% discount but i don't see it in my New account with Sonos Beam, Sonos Move and Sonos Play one X2. How Can i do?Thank you

Pre-ordered the roam on 03/09 and recall seeing a delivery date for 04/20 but now I don't see anything indicating that date. Are there any updates for pre-order delivery timelines?

Hello I’m considering buying something like Cambridge audio Evo 75 or Cambridge cxn v2. Question is: if I connect any of these devices from pre out to play 5 line in, I’ll be using the Sonos dac? How will sound quality would be versus direct streaming from iPad ?   

I am looking to swap my playbar for a playbase, any advice on where to go?

0 repliesHiim looking for recommendations for best most suitable Sonos set up for our morning room which runs into the galley kitchenthe Morning Room is 12ft x 12ft and the kitchen is 17ft x 9ft. At the moment I just listen to music and radio on a 2nd gen play 5. We are putting a tv in the morning room and I’d like stereo sound, I’d also like the option of having a speaker at the far kitchen end for when I just want music or radio in the kitchen. It’s rare that the music is played at any great volume, just want the quality therefore thinking of Sonos Beam with Alexa under the tv, poss 2 x SL Ones in the morning room and then 1 x SL One at the far end of the kitchen, and then sell the play 5. I gave an arc in my living room but don’t want to spend that much on the set up for these two rooms. any thoughts/ suggestions for the best system for this room combination  thanksdave 

I’ve been a Sonos user at my primary home for over 10 years, having a very simple Sonos setup that works well for me since I already had a high end stereo system. However, I now live up to 50% time in a second location - a 1 bedroom flat. I’d like to port my music there as follows: attach an external HD with the Sonos music files to a generally idle computer and play it via Sonos without benefit of a stereo system.A friend has volunteered to give me her old S1 components, but I don’t understand the set-up without a conventional stereo & stereo speakers to know whether I could put something simple together from what she has (and which components I should claim). My modem/router is a different room than the one where my speakers would be, so I assume that I would need a Sonos bridge. I have a good quality pair of Bose computer speakers if that would be useful, but have no other stereo equipment other than a cheap 1-piece stereo for playing music on an iPod (so of no use for Sonos). I

I currently have a bridge (8-9 years old) needed for outdoor speakers. It’s my only component that operates under the S1 app and, ideally, I would like all components under S2 now. What is the appropriate piece to buy...a port or boost? I’m assuming port but I’m not finding the answers I need. Or is there another option? 

I like many others over the years have invested thousands of pounds in sonos. I am completely fed up with sonos removing my ability to get updates deeming  my system archaic, always being asked to upgrade or buy new with 30% discount!.my sound bar and subwoofer are now in a box in the garage! Not good enough Sonos! I invested Thousands in your product to be let down!!!!!!

Support staffs was great in handling my issues regarding blown sonos play:1 and offer replacement under warranty. I promptly shipped my device back to SONOS and was received by them within 3 days as per tracking number provided. Since then, I have not heard back. The email said that i should have received the replacement in a week but its been already more than 2 weeks and i have not got my replacement neither any communications. IS IT NORMAL? When i called support they say the issue has been escalated but havenot been able to provide updates regarding whats going on but just standard reply that we have received the product and the case been escalated. Any help would be highly appreciated. My case number is 02****64 Mod Edit: Case number removed. Please don’t share identifying information on the forum.

Hi I am building a surround sound set-up from scratch but my priority is invisibility (small children destroy things).My plan is:Arc = Front L/R + CentreAmp = Rear L/R (Sonance In-Wall)Sub = SubFrom reading things on this forum and the Sonos FAQs I think this set-up will work and will be compatible with TruePlay...am I correct?Thanks from a beginner!

I have two Sonos play One & two Sonos play 5 all Gen 1. Also have playbar. Am wondering what subwoofer is compatible. Using S1 app as S2 app isn’t compatible with Play5/gen1. Thoughts please? 

Hello,I have the Arc for my family room set up which is a larger room with high ceilings. I am looking to upgrade my basement set up with either another Arc or get the Beam. The room is much smaller which leads me to my question. Would the Arc be overkill or would the Beam work for smaller room. The Arc is amazing but it seems to be too powerful for a smaller man cave area. Leave me with some thoughts or suggestions!Thanks

Hi Sonos novice here, got a big birthday coming up and want to treat myself. I can't decide on whether to get 2 x Roam or a Move speaker. I want to be able to take music in the garden at a reasonable sound level, but blast it in the house? Can anybody advise what is best to get, and/or how loud 2 x Roam are.......thanks.
