Press to connect to your Sonos system during setup.

Ethernet port

Use an Ethernet cable if you want to connect to a router, computer, or network-attached storage (NAS) device (optional).

AC power (mains) input

Use only the supplied power cord (using a third-party power cord will void your warranty).

Note: Insert the power cord firmly until it is flush with the bottom of the speaker.

Select a location

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum performance, here's a few guidelines:

Set up stereo pair

Pair two Sonos speakers in the same room for an even wider, stereo experience. One speaker serves as the left channel and one serves as the right channel.

Note: The Sonos speakers in a stereo pair must be the same type.

  1. Place the speakers 8 to 10 feet apart. Your favorite listening position should be 8 to 12 feet from the paired speakers—less distance increases bass, more distance improves stereo imaging.
  2. Go to >System.
  3. Select one of the speakers you want to use in the stereo pair, then choose Set Up Stereo Pair to get started.

Set up surrounds

It’s easy to turn two Sonos speakers (same model), or a Sonos Amp and your favorite non-Sonos speakers, into separate right and left channels for your home theater.

  1. Place each surround speaker about 10 ft from your favorite listening position, angling them toward the seating area.
  2. Go to >System.
  3. Select a room with a soundbar and choose Add Surrounds to get started.

Note: If you group the rooms or create a stereo pair instead, you won't have surround sound.

Surround audio settings

During setup, surround sound is optimized for your room. These settings are adjustable:

Surrounds

Turn surround sound On or Off.

TV Level

Adjust surround volume for TV audio.

Music Level

Adjust surround volume for music.

Music Playback

Ambient (subtle) or Full (louder, full range). Doesn't apply to Dolby Atmos Music playback.

Product settings

You can customize Sonos products for your surroundings. Go to > System and select a product.

Room Name

If you move your speaker to a new room, you can change its name in Settings.

Turn off WiFi

(not available for Sonos Era 100, Era 300, or portable products)

You can turn off your speaker’s WiFi when it’s connected to your network with an Ethernet cable. This reduces power consumption and can improve connectivity for wired speakers.

For products like Amp and Port, turning off WiFi can reduce the internal temperature when they’re placed in a rack or stacked. Learn more

Note: WiFi is turned off for Era 100 and Era 300 when you connect a Sonos Combo Adapter using the Ethernet cable.

EQ

Sonos products ship with preset equalization settings. You can change the sound settings (bass, treble, or loudness) to suit your personal preferences. Learn more

Trueplay

Trueplay adapts the sound for your surroundings and content. Portable products can tune themselves automatically. Learn more

Volume Limit

You can set a maximum volume for each room. Learn more

Status Light

Displays the speaker’s connection to WiFi, indicates when the volume is muted, and signals errors. Learn more

Note: If the light is distracting, you can turn it off in Settings.

Touch Controls

You can disable the touch control on your speaker. You may want to do this to prevent a child or curious pet from accidentally adjusting playback or volume. Learn more

Battery Saver

(portable products only)

To save battery life, you can set your portable speaker to power off automatically instead of going to sleep. It won't appear in the Sonos app until it’s powered back on.

Line-In

(Sonos products with line-in capability)

When a projector, turntable, stereo, or other audio device is connected to a Sonos product, you can adjust these line-in settings:

What you'll need

Set it up

Take everything out of the box and place the base in the packaging slot to stabilize it for the next few steps. Unplug your Sonos speaker, and thread the speaker end of the power cord through the opening in the base.

Insert the stem snugly into the base, using the alignment pins to position the power cord channel either in the front or back. Use the 2 black screws and a Phillips-head screwdriver to attach the base.

Route the speaker’s power cord through the speaker platform.

Use the 2 silver screws to attach the speaker platform to the top of the stem, threading the power cable carefully. Snap the bottom plate on with the power cable channel in the back, and mount the platform on the stem.

Plug the power cord back into the speaker and place on the top mount, pulling any extra cable down from the top. Tighten the screws and attach the top cap with the notch facing toward the speaker.

Press the power cord into the stem, working from top to bottom. Pull the excess cable down from the base.

Tilt the Stand forward slightly to wrap the excess cord around the bottom of the base. Plug the speaker’s power cable into the wall and enjoy the music!
