What to get

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

Is it possible to use upgrade program? if i have a connect that is not working ( not showing in My account) 

hi i am having trouble deciding on the ceiling speaker placement… i did look at a few previous post but they are all slightly different and i would like to make sure. We have an open ish floor plan. and looking to have in-ceiling speakers for 3 zone ambient music.Zone1: lower left part there is living room (16x15), which i was thinking to have 2 pairs of L/R in-ceilling speakers.Zone2: Family room is at the upper right, and i am thinking to have the sonos arc set for watching TV (tv will be on the right side of the wall). Zone3: My main question is for kitchen, which is on the lower right. right now i have 1 pair of L/R speakers, but i wonder if i put a small table between living room and island for dinning, will the L/R be very unbalanced (2L from living room, 1R from kitcken? or i am over thinking here and don’t really need to worry about it because it is ambient music anyway? if this is indeed will be unbalanced and a bad idea…  Is it better if i put 4 on the right side? i also try

Would be a problem using the original cover on SubG3 ?I just want to keep it clean and protect it from dust.  Thanks !

My lounge is approx 8m by 14m. we don’t have a TV here, so the playbar etc is elsewhere.it’s not a “party place “ either , but I would like to acheive “punchy” sound that can fill the room. Should I plan for an in-ceiling set ? Apair of  Play fives  ? Alternatively more Play threes or perhaps four or more play 1’s and a sub ?  What are your thoughts ?   

Ignoring the fact that I would be compromising the sound somewhat by covering part of the upward firing speakers…  I’m wondering if it is possible to mount the Arc to my TV stand using the Sanus TV mount and Arc mount?  Currently I have a Beam mounted to my TV stand using the Sanus TV mount and Beam mount and I would like to replicate this if possible.

I have a large square, open area that is a little over 3000 sq. ft.  This area is a weight room that is in need of a sound system.  I have Sonos products in my home gym / house and would like to install at work.  What would be the best setup and speakers to use for this open space?  Thank you

HeyI would like to purchase a set of Sonos ones but I’m not sure if I am wanting them to do to muchi currently have a large open plan space which has 2 echo shows and an Apple TV. I would like a pair of Sonos ones to wirelessly attach to the Apple TV (which I know is possible) but also wirelessly attach to BOTH echo shows so the one pair of speakers outputs all of the audio regardless of where it’s coming from (obviously only one decide will be steaming audio at any one time!)Am I asking to much, or is this possible?Thanks 

Hi!!!We are currently building an outdoor covered porch. I have 4 ceiling speakers that are rated for outdoor use, that I’m planning to power with a Sonos Amp. The Amp will be stored inside the house. The speakers will be evenly distributed in quadrants across a 16x13 porch.I am planning to have a BenQ projector and connect it via HDMI ARC to the Sonos Amp. I am not an audiophile looking for 5.1 surround (we have a good Sonos 5.1 setup inside). The projector is going to be something we bring outside from time to time, and use for movies with the kids, or sports with friends.I was hoping that the 4 ceiling speakers will not sound like complete trash, and would be acceptable to use from time to time for events mentioned above. Our main purpose for the speakers will be music, and I am not interested/nor have a good location for a soundbar.Here are the speakers: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_749CCM382/Bowers-Wilkins-Flexible-Series-CCM382.htmlAny and all advise will be much appreciated!!!

Seeking a kind soul that can help me answer a question that I have, I have 2 fives with a sub and I am very tempted to buy a beam and take the sub from the fives and create a 3.1 system for movies and use the fives for music only, Question is, is the beam and sub good enough? Will I get enough bass from the beam or need I go full 5.1 ? I'm not looking for a punch in the chest like u can get from the fives with sub, but I really want to hear those low frequencies and maybe some vibrations as well, answers are very much appreciated thank you 

I ordered the Sonos Move on Black Friday and it still says back ordered. It was supposed to arrive by Christmas. Any chance of that still happening? Or can I can an ETA?

I’m hoping someone can give me clarity on how to set up my current system to include Sonos. I had asked Best Buy for guidance but I’m not sure the advice given is accurate.  Note: I’m not very AV Savy so hopefully I’m clear enough. My current TV/surround system is a Pioneer VSX-90 which controls main zone: 5 Bose speakers in surround sound and zone 2: 2 more in wall speakers on a screen porch.  I would like to extend that system to stream music to all those speakers plus add more standalone wireless speakers that can be played together as a group or separately.    Best Buy suggested a Sonos Amp and Sonos Move. So I bought both. The Sonos amp does not connect to the pioneer. My guess is it could replace the pioneer receiver but I don’t want to do that. I have Set up the Move but It is basically a stand alone Sonos speaker.   my question is can the Sonos amp be installed so that it can highjack the pioneer speakers if I want to stream music to multiple zones as a group a even a small

Good Morning can anyone tell me please I have ordered a new ARC  Sonos have taken the money from my card but I have had no notification about delivery 📦 what happens next I was told that Sonos would take no payment till day of delivery 

I currently have the Beam in 5.1 with Sub and 2 Play 1 in the rear. I have a 15x15 ft room. Wondering what people’s thoughts are...worth the upgrade to Arc in a room that size?  I find the sound more than fills the room right now but we are doing some remodelling so now would be the time to change. Not sure if it’s worth the extra expense?

Any advantage in having multiple Subs in the same room?

The order page states February 26, 2021. Seems like a LONG time, especially since we’re now in the holiday gift-giving season!

Can anyone assist with my upgrade questions? I currently have a 5 speaker surround set in living room as well as a single “One” (not hooked up with tv) and a connect - that connects my amp and surround speakers to my other Sonos speakers thru the house. I want to streamline all the devices as I currently have the amp/receiver, subwoofer, Apple TV, ps3 (only using rarely to play a DVD) and the Sonos connect . Should I just purchase one soundbar non Sonos and hook up to current sub woofer and the Sonos connect? But then I would still require my amp for the connect? Or get a Sonos beam or other and one more “one” and then use existing sub woofer (not sure I can) and get rid of all other equip? I did spend a lot on the “connect” though but don’t want all this equip. Any advice is much appreciated. 

I have a Sonos Connect that should be eligible for a 30% upgrade discount. It shows up as part of my system and the site recognizes that it is out of date/not compatible with S2 or Airplay, but it will not allow me to apply the upgrade discount so that I can replace it.

I have a couple of questions regarding Sonos sound system and hope that you could help me. I am a complete newbie to the topic and Your help would be greatly appreciated .I am considering Sonos since it is wireless (mostly) and seems to offer amazing sound quality for the price.Ideally I would like to have a complete 5.1 sound surround system.Bellow are my concerns.Room shapeAttached are images of my living room, there are two things i am concerned about:rectangular shape, right wall basically missing/far away back wall behind me has open space   Would this room shape be ok for setups:arc  arc + subwoofer arc + subwoofer + 2 front speakers + 2 wall mounted back speakers this is where i would like to get Am I missing something with open space in my room ?Samsung KS 7000 series supportFrom what i can read there seem to be some problems with this TV series and dolby digital + support.

I have, for 2 years now, been following the growth - and particularly success - of Sonos; and it has culminated into my making the notoriously stressful and monumental decision to transfer my home theater/connectivity/audio eco-stystem into the hands of what I considered to be one of the most promising ‘Unicorn’ startups of the the last decade. Despite rich, uncomporomised audio quality that unquestionably stands up to the hype; the promise of premium, audiophile quality sound in a sleek, easy-to-use speaker is virtually out of reach for even the most patient and forgiving customers. With the exception of being one of the lucky few who managed to place and receive their order without any delays; loyal, disenfranchised Sonos customers have showed up by the masses to a seldom monitored online community board with a single shared grievance, “IS ANYONE THERE?!?!?!”Seriously though … did someone forget to pay the phone bill over there? The ONLY interaction I have managed to see from an actu

Hello!I have the 5.1 setup (Playbar, SUB Gen2 and two Play 3’s). My TV is Sony Bravia from 2014 and has HDMI ARC only. I am considering buying the ARC to replace my Playbar. Can anyone verify me that it would be an upgrade from the Playbar if it plays only Dolby Digital.Thank youNeven
