What to get

I am renovating my home and I don’t have space for a centerpiece like Sonos arc below the TV (TV will go on a marble fireplace). Can I use two wall speakers (or Sonos One’s) for front and two in ceiling speakers as rear speakers and achieve surround sound? If so, should I use one amp or two to connect those to TV? I have the new Samsung “the frame” 65”. Thank you!

Hi, I have searched and cannot find anything “exactly” the same as my query.I have a very large living room, currently with a traditional 5.1 system setup.I want to change it all and go with a Sonos system.I want the Arc, 1 x sub and 5’s for the rears. I then also want to add some 1’s in other rooms, but, not related to this query. Would the 5’s for rears offer a significant difference over the traditional 1’s for rears in a 5.1 system in a large room please?The main listening we do is standard TV, films, netflix etc, but, we listen to a lot of music also.Thanks in anticipation. 

Hello - My parents have a Beam, Sonos One and Sonos Play:1. The idea was to purchase another Play:1 to set up as surround sound (I understand you can’t use the One and Play for surround sound). We just learned the Play is being discontinued so wondering if it’s even worth it to purchase the refurbished version.  The other option would be to purchase another One and use that as surround sound. They currently have the One in the kitchen as a separate speaker.  Not really sure the best route to go. Kind of frustrated over the situation. I don’t understand why you can’t connect a One and Play as surround sound but that’s another issue. 

HelloI’m going to describe the system I have and the needs I would like to continue to take advantage of and also include a product. In doing so, I would very much appreciate your thoughts / advice / suggestions for a new upgraded system. I am going to go product by product in my descriptions and then follow up with questions for each, sometimes grouped. Connect:Amp - used for outside speakers on the EAST side of my house.    Connect:Amp - used for outside speakers on the NORTH side of my house.    Connect:Amp - used for tall floor standing speakers in my sitting room.   Play:5 (Gen 1) - used in living room Play:5 (Gen 1) - used in bedroom      6.

Hello,I’m considering getting the wall mounts to use as rears with a pair of Sonos One SL’s. The cord that comes with them is too short to use to go along the wall to the power outlets at floor level.I want to get a pair of wires that I can connect to my speakers and then run along the wall down the outlets. I see some online that you can use to replace ones that come with the speakers. Can anyone recommend ones that you use in this scenario?Thanks!

Published 5/10/20 Exciting things are happening at Sonos. They have just announced the June 10, 2020 release of a much anticipated addition to their family of Home Theater speakers. That being the Sonos Arc with Dolby Atmos.   An obvious question is how will the Arc fit into the Sonos line-up apart from the fact that it is capable of bringing the Dolby Atmos experience to home theater entertainment? Hopefully the chart below will answer some of those questions.  As you review the chart keep in mind that those points highlighted in blue are footnoted. The Sonos Amp has been added to this group; although not technically a speaker, it can be used in Home Theater to power 3rd party speakers for left/right front channels or Sonos in-wall (left/right) architectural speakers by Sonance.  Doing so it approximates the Center channel referred to as a “phantom center”. It can also be used to drive a pair of 3rd party speakers (typically book shelf or in-ceiling) as surrounds. Sonos in-ceiling

Hello to everybody,I’m interested in adding a turntable in my existing Sonos setup.Currently I have Arc + Sub + 2xOne in my living room.Due to space constrains I will put the turntable in my bedroom in which I don’t have any speaker or stereo system.With this in mind, I’m still a bit confused if I need to go with a port or a sonos 5.Taking into account that, primarely, I want something to stream the vinyl in my living room, I think the port should be the best option, but if I will go with the Five, I will be able to add also a good speaker in the bedroomWhich will be the best solution in your opinion? Please add the reason of your answer.Thanks

Hello there! I recently purchased a 5.1 system that has a Playbar, Sub and 2 Ones as rear surrounds. I like the system overall, especially for watching movies. When it comes to music, I prefer the full mode over ambient, but my rear speakers(the Ones) aren’t as powerful as I would like. I am considering using two Play 5’s as surrounds instead to improve the music listening experience as those two speakers are closest to me in a large open living room space. Has anyone else done something similar and noticed better results?

HiI have an old Connect:Amp that I can get 30% by upgrading to buying new SonosI can not quite figure out if I should send the old Connect:Amp back to Sonos or if I can just throw it out myselfHope someone can help ..?

Not sure if this has been brought up before but looking for a specific answer. I am fairly new to the Sonos system. I only have a Sonos One Gen. 2 but I plan on adding at least one more One, Move, and Maybe a Play 5.Before buying I was reading about the legacy products support and made me think what would the estimated life span be for these speakers especially the One G2. I am hoping for at least 8-10years if ever.I know it’s a long time to think about but a little reassurance before spending over $1000 would be nice.Thanks

I have a Sonos Play bar and 2 x Sonos One speakers.  I am considering buying a Pro-Ject VT-E BT Vertical Turntable.    A friend tells me that the bluetooth feature should work.  Keen to hear of anyone else has got this working before I make the purchase. Thanks Peter+65 9783 8096

Need some help please!We are building a home now and I have my low voltage team working right now to set up speakers.Here’s the rough plan: Deck TV home run into basement and will have 2 outdoor speakers. Will be controlled with Sonos Amp and wall mounted volume controller. I assume I’m ok to use Roku in this setup by plugging the Roku into the Sonos Amp?The living room may or may not be home run into basement. This room will NOT have overhead speakers but the nearby kitchen will have speakers powered by the deck amp as mentioned above.We had planned on using a Sonos ARC for this living room TV, which would allow us to use the TV in living room as source for the ARC AND the speakers on the Deck/Kitchen.Is this understanding correct so far?Finally, we plan to use Roku for this TV in the living room. This means my Roku will plug into my TV, which will plug into my ARC, which will allow me to pair that sound to other Sonos Amp powered speakers. Is this all correct? Need some quick help as

My move speaker works in my living room, but the Sonos SL will not.  I am only 20 feet from the modem and router.

I have 2x play 5s, playbar and the move set up in our L shaped lounge and plan for the sub Anything that would really add to the experience? Wondering about a couple of 1s but would appreciate thoughts.

I am planning on replacing the Sonos motherboard/PS boards on my Play 5’s with a 3rd party Airplay board thereby keeping my play 5’s out of the landfill.  Does anyone know the sizes of these boards?  I am trying to avoid opening mine up if someone already has this info.  If this works out I’ll post replacement board type and photos.  Thanks,  Ian  

I recently bought a Brilliant light switch that has screens built in with Sonos compatability for a easy consistent way to use my Sonos throughout the house.  I currently use the Connect Gen 2’s for my inside and backyard to external amps.  I am looking to add more speakers to my house as well as control every major room seperate.  So to make a long story short, was going to use the Sonos Amp I just bought to run the rear in ceiling speakers I have and use a small energy M8 sub.  Issue is that even if I buy a sonos sound bar and use the AMP for the rear my 3rd party sub will not work.  Any advice?  If I buy the Beam or ARC can I use one of my Connects to my 12 channel amp to work the surround?  and then do a Sonos Sub?  or do I have to get a connect:amp to do this?  

Does anyone have experience using Sonance in-ceiling speakers as front channels via an amp for TV? Will be using a second amp for rear channels, bonded with the front. Additionally, does anyone have experience using Sonance in-ceiling speakers outdoors in a fully covered porch? I know I can use other speakers, but I am thinking that true play could assist with directional output of the front channels.  To give some context, I will primarily be using these for music (full setting), but occasionally would like to setup a projector for movies and sports and was wondering how these speakers will perform. It doesn’t have to be perfect. But I prefer this setup vs Sonance wall or a sound bar.  Ceiling is 9.5 feet, speakers will be positioned in quadrants, 3-4 feet off each corner. Porch is 16 long by 13 wide. 

Which iPhones models to use for True play to get the best results? I'm able to borrow an iPhone XS Max and I would like to now if it's any point to do the calibration with it.Without TruePlay I have some problems with my sub gen 3 (together with arc and ones). The bass plays too loud on some frequencies, which is a big problem!

Hi,I currently have a circa 2016 Panasonic TV receiving HDMI inputs from an Apple TV 4K and PS5. I am using a Sonos Beam, plus 2 x Sonos One SL units for surround connected to the TV via the ARC HDMI port. There is a small, but noticeable audio delay when using a 5.1 audio output from either of my sources. I have done extensive reading on the subject and rather than looking for a fix, I am simply looking for suggestions/recommendations as to 43” TV models that will work via ARC with no delay (perhaps a model with a lip-sync delay feature). Although I have seen suggestions that these issues are rare, I doubt this is the case as I’ve seen reports of the issue with Sony, Samsung, Panasonic and LG sets.cheers,D
