My brother has Sonos speakers throughout his home so staying in the Sonos ecosystem and using the app to control music throughout his home is important to him.One problem...He has outdoor pool speakers that are not Sonos brand.So, a few years ago I gave him my old Sonos PORT. He plugged that into an Audiovox amp and was able to use the Sonos app to control those pool speakers.The Audiovox amp is no longer working and we are trying to find a cheap solution to get his pool speakers back up and running.Looking on Amazon I came up with a few 300 watt amps that are dirt cheap in price but have mostly favorable reviews. All he would need to do is plug the PORT and his pool speakers into the amp.I want to order from Amazon as in most cases, I can get it next day and it’s easy to return if it doesn’t work out.Do you guys feel any of these amps at a $100 pricepoint or less will work?https://www.amazon.com/Beffkkip-Amplifier-Receiver-Bluetooth-Integrated/dp/B0DJ2Z4285?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bUUO3Z6
I have a customer who wants to install in a VERY large room….. Its a restaurant that is about 75 feet x 40 feet…. I was thinking of installing six either Fives, or ERA 300’s This will be in addition to multiple ERA 100’s spread around in other areas. This building is huge. Speakers would be mounted high close to the ceiling. The ceiling slopes from about 20 feet down to about 10 feet. I was thinking the six speakers would be laid out with 3 facing the other 3 towards the middle of the room… Would this provide good sound? Is it the right product? Any suggestions anyone has?
Hello I want to buy Sonos move2 in china. Is it possible or not ? Because this is not available online in china.
Hello, I would like to order Sonos products for our office and was wondering if I could purchase and pay for the products by invoice / BACS?
Has there been any talk of large venue arena style sound systems from this team?
I intend to replace my old Bose surround sound setup with a Sonos Arc Ultra, but I’m trying to understand if I need to buy rear speakers and/or bass unit. Sonos support seems to think the soundbar alone should be sufficient but I am skeptical. The room is 16’ x 20’ with a cathedral ceiling that is 13’ high at the peak. The 65” TV is in one corner and must stay there (or so my boss tells me), and the sound bar can be easily placed on the cabinet with the TV. Do I really need rear speakers and/or bass unit? Also there are three exposed beams in the room about 8’ above the floor so rear speakers could be mounted there BUT it’s somewhat a pain to do that as I’d have to run power up there. Help!!
Looking for help as a newbie with Sonos. We are building a new home and want to ensure solid audio in the living room (especially for TV), gym, and rumpus room. Any suggestions? Do we need an in-floor power point behind the couch in the large open-plan area to plug in surround speakers? Any other tips would be greatly appreciated.
HelloI am looking for advise and recommendations on how best I can leverage my existing Sonos equipment in a new home. I currently have the following equipment3x Sonos ONE 1x Playbar 1x Ray 1x Beam Gen2 1x AMP 18x Sonos MAG-6R I am trying to use these in a new apartment in the below layout and figure out what additional devices I may need to purchase. Couple of requirementsEach room (BR) should be its own zone so that I can play music through the in-ceiling MAGs individually BR1 and LivingRoom need to have surround setup The Dining Room speakers should be such that they can be clubbed with the Living ceiling speakers for music streaming. When watching TV in the Living Room, only the ceiling speakers in the living room should be used. Based on my knowledge, I have tried to attempt the layout as shown in the image. Red indicates what I will need to purchase - which is what I’m trying to minimize :)My main area of confusion is the best way to setup the Living and Dining in such a way th
Hi everyone!We are preparing for the opening of a new Pilates and Dance studio, which will consist of two rooms. The main room measures 7 x 8 sqm with a ceiling height of 4.8m, while the second room is similar in size but has a ceiling height of 2.5m.I believe that one or two pieces of Era 100 in each room should be sufficient. Does anyone have a different opinion or any advice to share?Thanks!

I am redoing our office/game room and am upgrading the speakers. I have a dual monitor set up with a docking station with HDMI and 3.5mm connected to a MacBook Pro M2. I game and do some video editing and also just browse and wondering if Era 100 connected to docking station works or is there latency. Would it be be better off with a Beam?
I got an email from no-reply@con.sonos.com about 20 years and 25% discount on most products. Is this an fishing mail? I logged in on the mail, a little bit stupid to not check first.
Hey there! I am thinking of getting myself Amp but have read of some annoying trouble some of you have had after the last major update. I have 3 Sonos speakers at home, and would like to connect them, together with my passive speakers, into one system. How smooth is your experience with Amp these days? Would you still buy it today?

So want to stay on brand.My choices would be 2 Sonance 8” in ceiling with amp, a pair of ERA 300s or a couple of Move 2,sSo what would be the best for overall sound quality?
An an existing owner (and shareholder!!) got the 25% sale offer. I really wanted to upgrade to an Arc Ultra but the discount doesn’t apply to it. I’m quite miffed at that. I’m happy with my existing setup except for the Beam. Why in the world would I be restricted to stuff I don’t want??And any other recommendations to use the discount? I use Sonos for surround sound in my TV room.
"I have a large living room (72 m²) with challenging acoustics, and I need the best Sonos setup for optimal sound (audio only, no TV). Here are the room details:"📐 Room dimensions:Length: 10 meters Width: 7 meters Ceiling height: 4 meters in most of the space 7 meters in the right short wall and the bottom long wall (meters 7 to 10) 🏡 Room materials:Floor: Full stone (granite). Walls: Stone with wooden beams. Right short wall: Full glass (7 meters high, 7 meters wide).🚪 Doors & Openings:Main door: Left short wall, between meters 2.5 and 4.5. Glass door: Right short wall, between meters 2.5 and 4.5.🔊 Acoustic challenges:A lot of hard surfaces → High risk of sound reflections and echoes. Large glass wall → Less sound absorption, potential reverberation. High ceilings in some areas → Bass frequencies might get lost.❓ What is the best Sonos speaker placement to achieve optimal sound quality in this room?Which speakers should I use (Era 300, Sonos Five, Era 100, Sub, etc.)?

Could you provide me with some screenshots of the Sonos App to see the software environment?I’m new to Sonos, i asked a retailer in my region but he didn’t satisfy all my questions.What is your opinion?Should I get only Sonos Amp devices or I could use some Sonos Port devices to combine them?

I have a Beam Gen 2 speaker with a sub-mini and I am thinking of adding two speakers for a surround sound experience when watching movies. I have a modest sized Lounge and the current set-up gives good sound quality. Any thoughts on the best additional speakers to purchase? Thanks and happy Listening.
I have a problem with my hearing. I have some problems with deep (bass) voices merging into one. The right ear is worse but I can usually hear what I need. My main problem is that certain letters sound different ie S sounds like F etc . I hear my tv ( 1 year old top spec) but due to the letter issues I sometimes loose the plot. All this is not severe so most people would not know.I’m hoping a sound bar and perhaps speakers will help. I have been looking at the Sonos Beam and Arc sound bars. Perhaps a speaker might also help but as low tones merge I’m assuming the the bass speaker would not help /improve my experience.Can anyone help with suggestions or a personal experience.
I would like to add ceiling speakers / amp to a summer house/gym, what do I need to set this up correctly?I will have internet hard wired to the summer house/gym. do i need to consider anything else? thanks in advance.
Hi guys me again, looking to place my Arc Ultra on the wall or on a TV cabinet, could anyone advise if I should use the HDMi cable which comes with the soundbar (according to what I’ve read) or should I look at alternatives in other words are there better quality ones on the market. Also I have an optical cable but Sona’s advertise one and I’ve read somewhere where is states to connect this and the HDMi cable also, can someone say why I need both please? thanks again in advance. Smuj
Hi there I have a beam Gen 2 and wondered what would be a better next purchase, an era 300 or sub mini? My living room isn’t huge but wondered if the era 300 would connect with my beam if I went for that? Open to some suggestions thanks
Reviews are not possible for obvious reasons. I have owned for awhile and upgraded once my Sonos system. The app is crap. They have since reduced functionality/sound controls, I constantly have issues with the app. Crashing It requires constant reboots, too many updates for less service, now recently and final straw it is requiring an update that is dead end. No fix offered and I am not here to waste more time with sonos tech support Error message says retry later with no options to fix and zero functionality. I now know I paid wayyyyy too much for this garbage company's junk product. Replacement systems they offer cost stupid money for crap app and only fair to good speakers. Buy it if you want speakers that forever increase in costs and headaches. I want my money back and damages. It's like buying shoes and the soles soon fall off in a sharp rock pavement.
My dad has a room in the house where he used to listen to music and decompress. His speaker system is outdated so I would like to set him up with a Sonos system. What would you recommend for just listening to music only? None of these products would be connected to a TV.
