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?
We are currently building a new home with a large outdoor patio leading onto our pool,My main audio system is very high end and we will be able to hear it when the doors are all open,But for times when they will be closed, I Would like to have some music of decent quality in the area,We have Sonos in our TV room and bedroom. 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.)?

I’m considering on getting 4-6 Sonos Amp devices in order to have 4-6 zones.I use Spotify, Apple music and other streaming services.My mobile devices are iPhone, iPad etc.Am I able to use Spotify in zones 1-2-3 and Apple Music in zones 4-5?Is it easy for my family members (teenagers and adults) to make basic adjustments and selections in apps, volumes, zones 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? Thanks in advance
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.

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.
Hello, Sonos professionals,I’m getting a new house in a few days, and I’m finishing the basement with a SONOS system in mind--while I have the exposed walls, I’m trying to get the electrical setup. The living room upstairs will have an Arc Ultra and sub (where we watch tv--eventually I will add the erras for surround), and I want the basement to be able to sync to it for when we have parties.My question is how to do the basement. It’s about 700 square foot, and most of it is in one square, open area. I will have a poker table, a pool table, and a bar in this area. I’m designing the system for MUSIC primarily, as there won’t be a dedicated entertainment area any time soon, despite the presence of a wall mounted TV. I want something that can bang when it wants to for parties, but otherwise, provides clean universal music that can be talked over, specifically for poker games (so no speakers directly in anyone’s faces.)I’m currently thinking that two in-ceiling speakers over the poker tabl
With $1,000 US to spend will I be better off replacing my ArcSL with and Arc Ultra or enhancing my Arc SL with a pair of ERA 300s?

I recently upgraded my wifi system form an RBR50 based Orbi router plus 3 sateelites ot a Google Nest Pro mesh system and it has been a disaster. The system drops out at random and it is clear form other posts that there are some fundamental issues with the nest pro mesh system. I am not a techie and do not have any more hours to spend on support chats/calls (I just want a system that I can connect up after restting my mixed Sonos system and it works and can be controlled from my PC, iphone and iPad, seemingly not possible on google.I know that soem folks have found workarounds but I just want a simple life. Any help much appreciated.
I am moving from Canada (120v) to France (220v) with a number of SONOS speakers and want to know where I can purchase EU power plugs.
Hi,I have a 36-square-meter living room.I currently own 2 Era 300s. To me, they lack bass punch. Initially, I wanted to return them, but I missed the return window, so I bought a Sub Mini to address the bass issue. The sound is good, but unfortunately, I don’t like how the Sub Mini looks in my living room. The optimal placement for the sub makes it very visible, and it looks like a small trash can to me (and to my wife). I’m considering returning the Sub Mini and selling the 300s to get a pair of Fives, which, based on what I’ve read, don’t need a subwoofer to deliver good bass and punchy sound. Here’s my question: Will a pair of Fives without a sub sound as good as or better than a pair of 300s for stereo music? I don’t listen to Atmos music.Will the difference be noticeable? If you could rate the sound quality of a pair of 300s at 100%, how much would you rate the Fives? Thanks!
I have an old player that I used to connect to my router via a Sonos bridge. This now does not work as it causes my internet to drop really low with the new bt router I have. What is the cheapest way to connect the playbar so I can play music on it. It is connected to my Sony Bravia TV.
Hi all,I am already a Sonos supporter with over 15 speakers, my son has moved out so i have snaffled his room as my man cave! I ordered a bean and two era100 on Saturday to add to the new TV but was informed nothing would hapened until January 21st...so just wondering if this is a result of the deck chair shuffling over the last few day or another reason?Ian
