What to get

Hi Sonos comm ,    I have a Sonos 2 app with various speakers and Sonos boost, so all reasonably modern.    Looking to use a pioneer DJ 200 mixing deck , it would appear I could plug this into a Sonos Connect gen 2 (not 1 ) to incorporate my existing Sonos speakers ?  Want to try and keep the cost down as I know there is now the port etc , just looking at a short cut with compatible Sonos products as I can buy the connect fairly cheap (£200) off eBay ? Just checking b4 i buy the connect gen 2 , would seem fairly straight 4wd , this is for home fun only , not professional,  thanks peeps 🙏🙏 Tom  

I’ve been looking recently at getting a Port to use in my office and bringing in my receiver and 5 disc CD changer -- probably going to add a TT as well.  I have a stero pair of Play:1’s in there and plan to add a sub next time I can get a reburb/open box or sale.  The Port would help me even without the TT and I see them listed on eBay as “BRAND NEW, IN BOX” for $349.xx USD.  What is the catch here?  How are they $100 off MSRP?  Closest I found to that was BB “open box - excellent” for $381.xx but it sold too quick.Should I just pick one up off of eBay?  Is there a benefit to buying from BB over eBay?  Any other buying advice/tips?Thanks! 

I currently own a Sony soundbar. Each time I’m watching a film, I have to constantly turn the volume up (when characters are speaking) and down (when the action starts).Years ago, I had a 5.1 system, which allowed me adjust each separate channel, so I raised the one with the dialogue (the centre channel) and that solved the issue. So, my question is this: Does the Sonos Arc allow you to increase the volume of specific channels so I can increase dialogue?     

Sound quality? Anyone have any feedback please?

Hi all, I was hoping I could have some recommendations for a Sonos set up for our living room. We have a 55” TV in the corner of the 15’ square room with the sofa on the wall opposite.My options are either an Arc on its own, or the 5.0 Surround Set with the Beam and One SL pair.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks  

I have a sound base, sub and two Play 1’s for my home theater in a living room that is approx 14 x 18 feet. One 18 foot side is open to a dining room. Equipment yeahI am about to wall mount a 75” tv and want to hang a sound bar and move the sound base to another room. We sit 13 feet from the screen which will be 75-80 inches. Should I buy an arc or a beam? Please explain why you advise one or the other. Thank you fellow Sonos enthusiast. 

Hey allI have a turntable with a pre-amp that I currently connect to my Play5.  However I will be adding wired-outdoor speakers that I need to connect into the broader system.  And I want to move my Play5 away from the turntable.  I also have a Play 3 and a Play 1.Can I get the Sonos outdoor speaker set w/Amp and plug both the outdoor speakers AND the turntable into the amp?  More importantly, can I then play the turntable without having to necessarily play the outdoor speakers at the same time.  I want to control them separately.If not, then what is my best option?  Confused!Thanks!

Hi, placed an order and received notification that it’s being sent from Holland, does anyone know if this will be subject to import charges following brexit. I thought the order would be fulfilled in UK. 

I’m thinking about expanding my Sonos system to my wired speakers with a Sonos Amp. Now, this product is about to be 2yo, you think is a good time to buy or a Sonos Amp 2 might be on it’s way?Thanks!

Is the Project Debut Carbon Sonos Edition turntable the same model as the manufacturer's or is it different?It only changes what has the Sonos logo?

Hi!My power cable burnt. And a similar cable is no where to be found. Sonos webpage don't ship to uae? Buying from USA site is 70 usd for a power cable.What to do here? See picture for exact cable needed. This is not standard  

I’m putting together a new Sonos system for home theater and music on a budget. I currently have an old but high-end receiver, front L/R and front center speakers. I would like to create a Sonos system that incorporates two wireless Sonos speakers (Most likely Sonos One or Symfonisk Bookshelf) as wireless rears for a 5.0 or 4.0 set up. I know that I can replace my receiver and fronts with an Arc or Beam. Do I have any other options for the front speakers if I want to use some combination of my existing equipment to create a surround system? For example, would any of the combinations below work for surround sound? Sonos Connect (Gen 2) or Port → Receiver → Front L/R/Center + Rear L/R Sonos One Sonos Amp → Front L/R + Rear L/R Sonos OneThank you!

I have a Sonance DAB1 Distributed Audio system in my house.  This is the type of system that has a control panel (wired remote) on the wall in each room that has built in speakers that allow you to turn that room sound on/off, change the source, and change the volume.  The system also has a main controller (think large amplifier that allows for system programing) that runs the system.I’d like to convert the speakers in this system to sonos, but I don’t know if this is possible and what it would take to do it.  Ideally I’d be able to remove the DAB1 controller and use Sonos Amp or something like that to control each pair of speakers, I just don’t know if this is possible since there are control panels for each pair that currently control them.

Can I play vinyl on a Bluetooth enabled turntable and a Sonos Move?

I am purchasing Sonos arc and sub. I am conflicted on purchasing  (2) one SL or purchasing the amp so I can run speakers. My room is 15 x 20 with 8ft ceiling and my recliner couch is against the rear wall.  I have a few questions. Can I connect 2 in ceiling rear speakers and  2 inwall left and right? If so, can I use 1 Sonos amp to do so?Aside from cost and installation. Will one application sound better than the other? As a note, my Primary use is for home theater but how for an adequate music listening.  I appreciate any and all suggestion and guidance. I know you guys are all busy! 

Evening,Got an item on backorder. Is there any warning before they try and take funds?  Don't really want to sit with a chunk of cash in my regular account for that long.CheersJim

Hi,I am considering buying a Sonos system to create a multi-room music experience at home. I currently have a good amplifiers/radio/speaker system in the living room and understand that a Sonos Port (449€) would be appropriate to serve as a Sonos hub for the set-up.Also the Sonos One SL (199 €) would be a good kitchen speaker integrated into the system.The problem is connecting my B&W Zeppelin Wireless to the set-up. The Zeppelin can connect via Bluetooth or a 3.5 mm aux input, but I can’t find a suitable Sonos component to connect it. Sonos doesn’t support bluetooth connections and the Sonos Port seems to be overkill, since all I need would be a Sonos SL, but without the speaker (should not cost more than 100€).Is there something I am missing, or should I rather look at other brands of multi-room equipment. 

just bought a sub3, and connected to my system,,, can now see that there is not trade up discount attatched,,, is that right??  somebody??

When you look into the Sonos arc which they sell at Costco‘s would it be wise to also attach the subwoofer? And if you do that, do you need rear speakers with that type of sound bouncing off the ceiling?  

Hi Sonos community, i am wondering what would be best for a 35sqm leaving room between the two options :Sonos beam + 2 five + 1 sub Sonos arc + 2 one + 1 sub my preliminary use will be TV (Samsung the frame with HDMI arc - no earc) but also listening musique with friendsvery happy to have your view on thatBest,

Hi, I have a Sonos playbar, Sonos Sub, and two Sonos One’s for rear surrounds. I would like to add a nice pair of floorstanding speakers (Monitor Audio Silver 500s) so I’m thinking about buying the amp. Does this still give me a 5.1 set-up. I’ve heard if I add the amp, then the playbar centre speaker doesnt work ? 

Hi I have 2 Sonos 5 and I want to use them with my TV instead of buying a sound bar. Will the Sonos Port be the best option (more cost effective) to achieve this? Thanks

Hi,I have a rather long room, with a TV on one end. I want to use an Arc for TV sound, but I feel it would need some extra speakers at the rear of the room to boost volume at that end of the room. There are actually two ceiling speakers at the rear end I could use.I’m not that interested in Dolby Atmos or Surround, I just want clear sound from the TV from the Arc at the front and the ceiling at the back. How would I accomplish that? Something like this - Arc direct to TV, Amp powering the ceiling speakers and somehow combine them in the software?Thanks,Eric 

I am torn what to buy. I am going to buy a Sonos system because I like the wireless option of it and Dolby Atmos. I have a medium size basement, my main priority for it is home theater for my 85 inch TV, but I also want it to be able to play good music the odd time. I want the best of the best. Do I go with the Arc, 2 subs, and 2 1's OR do I go with the Arc, 2 subs, and 2 fives? Home theater is the priority but music is important to me from time to time as well. What would you do and why? Will the fives take away from the home theater experience of it?

Ok so I've found and bought a Sonos Connect that's compatible with S2 (serial begins with 1607).Now to get some outdoor speakers. I don't have an existing system, so no amplifier to connect to. I want to do this on a budget at the moment so what's the best option? I thought I could get a pair of 'active' outdoor speakers as these have a built in amplifier. In theory they can be connected directly to the Connect right?
