What to get

Hello,I currently own sonos arc connected to tv and play 3. I am looking to get the pro-ject T1 phono turntable and wanted to find out the best way to connect to current sonos that i have. Would i need to just get a sonos port to make this work or should i trade in the play 3 for FIVE?Thanks

I have a Sony receiver/amp connect to four outdoor wired speakers. My spouse would like to add speakers inside the house (kitchen, den, etc) so that the music can play simultaneously throughout I have a bluetooth receiver connected to the amp so we can stream from our phones). What is going to be my best option to add wireless speakers to this system so that it will play and be in sync with the wired speakers? Should I invest the $$$ in a Sonos Amp or Port, or is there a less expensive option?

I ordered a Sonos Arc on the 4th of January, at that time the shipping date was given as 29th of January. I then received an email on the 27th of Jan saying my shipping date was delayed until the 5th of February. I have now received a further email saying shipping is now delayed until the 12th of February. Is this the norm with Sonos are there others out there eagerly awaiting delivery of their Sonos system and the delivery date being pushed back time after time. Is this just a problem with Arc orders. What is the normal waiting time for Sonos deliveries.

Ok I have been browsing NAS-related discussions here and have a couple questions/confirmations as I am hoping to get all of my CDs onto a library. It looks like something as simple as this WD My Cloud Home 4TB drive - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/wd-my-cloud-home-4tb-personal-cloud-white/5990204.p?skuId=5990204 might do the trick. Agree? Pros/cons? Better alternatives (even if more expensive)? Could this be set up to run independent of my Mac? Or would the Mac need to be powered on to do so? I mean I know I need to the Mac to get it all set up, but once set up would this operate whether the Mac was powered on or no? Best software for ripping CDs on the Mac? I want to be able to rip full-resolution audio even if playback on Sonos is lower-res and I don’t want to use iTunes. Thanks in advance!

HiI have mobile wifi, a beam and 2 x S1 for internal sound - the boat also has several built in ceiling / wall speakers throughout - maybe 12 speakers all connected to various Fusion head units - am i right in believing that i can connect these speakers / head units to the same sonos set up as the 3 stand alone speakers either using a ‘Sonos Port’ or ‘Sonos Amp’?Would I need both, one or not possible?TIA

I’m interested in upgrading my home theatre audio setup and am very interested in Sonos Arc, but after much reading online I can’t tell if it’ll work and support Dolby Atmos with my specific TV over HDMI ARC (no eARC). Has anyone had success using Samsung Frame (2019) with Sonos Arc and getting Dolby Atmos sound output?I only really care whether it will work in in a few cases:Streaming apps (Netflix / HBO Max, as they do over Dolby Digital Plus) Gaming on Xbox One XI found this review that says:Dolby Atmos is available over HDMI ARC through Dolby Digital Plus, so Netflix Atmos will work properlyhttps://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/the-frame-2019 From what I’ve read, Dolby Digital Plus produces a compressed version Dolby Atmos, but :shrug:https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/dolby-atmos-sound/Dolby Digital Plus is a lossy, lower-bandwidth format that has been optimized for use with streaming services and features like B-D Live. It’s currently supported by a wide range of devi

 This has probably been asked many times before but I'm struggling to find an answer to my specific question. I currently own 2 x Play2 speakers using S2 software (I assume this means I have Gen 2 speakers. I was intending on purchasing a Sonos Connect so that I can connect my turntable to my speakers. If I purchase a used Connect Gen 1 will it work on my Gen 2 speakers? Thanks

Hi All, I have Sony Sony Bravia 49XD8305. Wanted to buy Arc soundbar, so wondering will this be compatible with my TV. I mean is it suitable?Thanks in Advance!

How much longer to wait, are there many others waiting too.  Does the Brexit broader controls having much to do with it from the EU side, slowing it down or not. Seemsa long time to wait 

I am looking for a stand alone CD ripper, player, storage (4 TB+), and FM Tuner that will work with wireless speakers (Sonos) in a two zone environment. I do not want to have to maintain a separate hi fi system. In the past I used a computer with an external drive and a music program (initially Windows Media Center which was great), then Media Monkey), but have had to replace computes as the software has grown old and gone unsupported (Windows Media Center Edition, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 10). I have over 5,000 CDs I want to burn/rip, then back up and then dispose of. Don’t want to have to do againI am not a super audiophile. But I do want great sound coupled with wireless convenience and system simplicity. I do not use nor do I want to use a voice based system like Alexa, etc. Being able to also link the speakers to my smart tv would be great.I looked at Brennan B2, but capacity is too limited. Considering Cocktail Audio X35, but is a lot of money and at the upper end of what I thin

I mistyped Play instead of Port (it won’t let me edit the title).I currently have a Marantz M-CR610 receiver running 1 pair of room speakers and connected to a Niles SI-1230 amp that’s running to 6 other rooms.My plan was to swap out the Marantz with a Sonos Amp (which is on backorder still).  Then run a Port to the Niles amp.I can’t get the Port to get any sound to play out of the Niles amp, turned up all the volumes to max as well.  I connected the Port L/R audio out to the Niles L/R main bus input (line level inputs).I have each channel bridged on the Niles amp and tried also turning up the level limiter to max as well.I can connect the Port to the Marantz, connecting to the Audio 1 line in and it plays just fine setting the Marantz input source to Audio 1.What am I missing?

Assume I am buying a Pro-Ject T1 Phono SB Turntable and that I don't have any third party speakers, just a Sonos system with 8 speakers that include the soundbar and combination of original Sonos and Play One speakers and and Sonos sub.  Should I get the amp for the turntable and system or will a PLay Five be just as effective?

Hi everyone,Currently I have in ceiling speakers connected to a Sonos amp, which i use mainly for music. I would like to wirelessly have my tv sound go through the in ceiling speakers. The amp is located in my mechanical room in my basement and my tv is located on my main floor. The in ceiling speakers’ wiring is all routed to the mechanical room. Currently I can watch something on my IPad and Appleplay only the sound to the speakers. I was hoping I could do something similar with my tv. Any ideas?

Why are arc entertainment sets constantly out of stock ?, when ever I try to order one of the arc sub one SL sets it can never be bought and hasn’t notified me of it ever being in stock. come on SonoS do you want to sell these products or not?

Hi all!I currently have a Playbar, sub and two 1’s for surrounds. I was ready to use my trade in towards an ARC. Didn’t take long while doing a google search for a plethora of customer issues to appear. Especially seems to be the sound cuts out quite frequently. I have an LG OLED C9 series tv. If I understand correctly, most issues seem to stem from using the apps directly through the smart tv’s (a lot of different brands). Are these issues still present if you use a fire stick? Also, something seems to be up with the Nintendo Switch? I can’t quite understand what’s going on there.  I don’t NEED the ARC but i like toys and it seems like this has the potential to be pretty darn cool. Thanks in advance. Btw...idk if it matters but I use my current Sonos for 90% tv/movies and the rest for music 

I have a Connect:Amp being used to connect a turntable (Line In) to my living room. Currently it’s just a Beam but the plan is to add Ones or Symfonisks for 5 channel surround. My question is if I use the Sub Out from the C:A to connect to a third-party powered subwoofer, will it provide the missing .1 or would it just send out a generic low level signal? My assumption is the latter, since the Sonos app forces me to create a separate room for the Amp that I can only group with the Beam room. If this is the case, is it even worth it to go the third-party route or should I just save up for a Sonos Sub instead? Setup would be used equally for music and movies/TV.

I do most of my listening (to classical,  mostly) in my very cozy den (about 9 feet x 9 feet, with a low, painted wood beam ceiling (about 6 1/2 ft.), with spaced beams coming down 4 inches from  the ceiling--TMI, I suppose, but I suspect these help the acoustics quite a bit).  Anyway, I have a Sonos One and love it. It is certainly loud enough for the room. But I've always wanted a really nice stereo and have never quite been able to afford one... So,  my question is, if I want to upgrade, should I be reasonable and just get a second One, or would a Five blow me away? (I have an eager prospective recipient if I decide to pass along my current One--in fact, that would essentially reduce the added cost of the Five because the One would be such a nice present.) Would the sound quality and bass be worth it even if I don't need the volume? Or would the stereo separation of two Ones be the way to go?

Hello,I am coming to you for advice on a stand for Sonos One SL speakers.I visited different brands and my attention turned in particular to Sanus & Flexson. I'd love to hear your opinion on this to see which one you think is the best, given the relatively similar price tag.However, I see that there is no stand that allows the speaker to tilt towards our ears, which is rather a shame I think. They are only visibly adjustable in height. In addition, I have a small space between the sofa and the wall and unfortunately I cannot move the sofa. Indeed, I have only 10 inches between the sofa and the wall. This is why I must also take this into account in my choice. The ideal would be to find a stand that places the speaker as close to the wall as possible without the support leg making me lose too much space between the wall and the speaker.Thank you for your advices !

I currently have playbar, 2x one SL, sub.  I have a TT with no built in amp.  If I want to connect my TT to the system what would be the best way.

I hear a lot of people around who are interested in a sonos sub, but don't buy it because it is glossy black.This is the same for me. I already own sonos one's en arc and would like to add a sub.Is there a possibility to order a black matte sub and import it as an alternative?I think the demand for a matte black sub is huge!

Hi-I own a receiver and a Connect (which powers two non-sonos in-ceiling speakers).I would like to allow the speakers to be able to play sound from both the receiver AND from wirelessly (via Connect)...depending on what source is providing the sound.Is there a way to wire for this? TIA

Hi everyone, I love my Sonos play 1 and my new Sonos move. My current wishlist is the Sonos Arc, sub and 2 play 5s to pair in stereo. Also would get another play 1 to add 5.1 surround.  Is this overkill?  It’s a small house, but I want to upgrade my setup. 

Good night I am wondering what to by for a Terrace 40' x 30' I was thinking 4 Sonos 1, 2 gen but just trying to get the best sound and what should I combine?Thanks in AdvanceJoel

Hey! I just upgraded to the Arc and have 2 Play 1’s for rears. I also have the new sub. Just wondering if jumping to the Sonos Fives would be worth it? I have a 16’ x 22’ movie room and I’ve read that the Fives are “too much” sound in smaller rooms. Thoughts? Thanks!
