Any XM/Sonos users have any insight into this intermittent infuriating interruption of service? I'm not the only one that this affects and it never happens listening to anything else on Sonos. "Song not encoded correctly" is a questionable excuse when you can be listening for an hour and the...

Hi, I hope someone with knowledge of the Sonos Port might be able to provide an answer. I'm thinking of adding a Port to my system, in order to sync it up with some Sonos players in other parts of the house. I'm in a bit of a quandary how I would connect it. As I see it, there are two options...

I recently picked up a free Onkyo TX-8050 with protection issues. (for another thread) The person threw in a Sonos Port as part of the package. I've never had a Sonos product, but I am looking for something to replace my aging Chromecast Audio. I did a little reading about the Port, and I have...

My wife suggested bringing my stereo gear downstairs, in the living room we had redone, but I was concerned about the cats causing trouble. I told her cabinetry would be the best solution. I started designing the cabinetry, but that (and lack of time) eventually led me to tearing apart and...

Hello AK, I have a Marantz 2230 that I'm using as a preamp for my system and all the line level inputs are currently being used. I would like to integrate streaming into the mix. I'm looking at getting a sonos port since I already have sonos speakers throughout my home in addition to my hifi...

I had a Sonos Play 5 Gen 1 and it just died today. I wanted an opinion on what should I do next I have a spare iMac and Apple TV and can buy cheaper powered speakers. I am looking for a software that can run on iMac or Linux that can accept airplay and chromecast. Open to any hardware solution...

I know it bordering on heresy to discuss such things here, but: My brother scarfed my Panasonic SX 650 decades ago, and recently my Dynaco Stereo 150 (which I built in the 70s) finally croaked. I still have a Nakamichi 410 preamp that's kicking and recently i recapped and refinished a vintage...

I am ready to invest in a new DAC; marrying a new Samsung TV into a vintage stereo is kind of forcing my hand. I my current system is Elac Unifi 2.0 speakers, Adcom GFA555 amplifiier, Rotel RSP 960 Pre amp. Sonos Connect Pre amp for streaming Spotify. I have also ripped my large CD collection to...

Hello from Tacoma, WA. Early 40s music lover with a small stash of records (4 expedit squares), 1000+ CDs boxed away in the garage and 1.2TB of mp3s on the hard drive. A small sonos set up seems to fit most of our needs but I enjoy fawning over high end stereo setups I'll never be able to...

I'm building a home theater in my lower level, my kids have told me I should buy a Sonos system which with two architectural speakers in the ceiling for the rear channel will cost all in under $2,000. That seems to be a figure that also buys a lot of receiver and speakers. Any suggestions or...

Hello. I am aware that this may be quite of topic to what this forum is designed for. I am hoping that it can be overlooked and that some kind, intelligent person could help me. My partner recently bought a so called sonos sound bar, which he deeply loves. This evening our daughter...

I'm trying to put together a custom Robinette Box that will allow me to use headphones with my Sonos ZP-100 units. Sonos made the bizarre design decision to not put headphone jacks onto these units. I'm buying my wife a decent set of headphones for Christmas but now need to build an adapter...
