Geil

Alles so 67

Temperamental and not reliable

Keeps going in and out

Unreliable and frustrating

I don’t think this is news to anyone, but I have an old Sonos system and I can say for the last number of years it has had more attitude then my teenage daughter. Basically it decides when it’s going to work when it’s gonna stop when it’s going to have zones appear and reappear. I have tried the book and had professionals look at it. I’ve reconfigured my system installed and uninstalled and reinstalled. All software gone back on updates and even factory reset all of the speakers and hardware. It’s been a total nightmare. But about a month ago, everything seemed to reappear and has been giving me no problems. I wonder if it will last if not, I’m ditching this system all its hardware and looking for something else.

Play:5 and Era 100 don't work together!

Very disappointed that the new series of Sonos product cannot work with Sonos 1 controller. - It makes kive snd upgrades very, very costly

Not sustainable

There’s no support for older products that work fine, how hard can it be to implement them in the new OS? I have Sonos products (12) & I’m confined to EBay now & buying older secondhand as the new products work on the new App that doesn’t support older OG products, MAD!If a Nikon lens from the 1940’s can still fit on a Nikon camera made yesterday then, wake up SONOS & do better.

Over it

Over Sonos not working, can’t access music, speakers falling off the wifi, have to reset. Too much work all the time.

Quality

This company has produced a quality product much like German engineering.

Sound system is awesome

It is a blessing to have a sound system with the house like all over the house and Sonos was so easy to install and connect to our phones

Upgrades

I love the system, but they should’ve made an app that works with an older system instead of forcing you to upgrade the products since I have a big system gonna cost me a lot of money to just to use the stupid app because I have to upgrade all the unit

Awful

I changed routers and the entire system disappeared. I rebooted it and SOMETIMES it works but takes forever (20 minutes) to connect to the router. Never get this product.

Poor update

Don’t know what you changed but any kind of power cut or changing router and it’s a nightmare to set up again

Cool

Cool

Lỗi

I have updated to the latest version on my phone and in the app store, but the system is still reporting an error-specifically. a
"something went wrong" notification.

Thank you

I love Sonos products, i own more then 6 speakers gen 1 and a play 5 gen2. I would like to thank Sonos for keeping the app for gen 1 alive. Your products are amazing! Thank you!

Disconnect sensitivity

So many issues with connecting to WiFi- inter connecting more than one speaker, odd model numbers, the flashing lights that don’t match the colors instructions etc etc etc.

Still sucks

Lordy they need to be fired!

Rubbish

Rubbish. Old app rubbish. Every time I switch on Sonos, I’m asked to reconnect to my network, every single time! Often doesn’t connect. Same with this app. I’m going to go back to being old school, start using devices that don’t need apps. This is honestly getting ridiculous.

Losing connection on a regular basis

I have my main system on S2 with a few holdouts still on S1. Guess Sonos is forcing me to upgrade.

Dysfunction at its finest

Ranks as probably the number one most frustrating expensive experience of any of my purchases. I invested in 13 Sonos speakers and with each “new generation” the syncing functionality has decreased and decreased, let alone the speakers even being found to begin with. One day five will only be found, the next day one, today I have 9 functioning. Yesterday, only 4. Considering the thousands of dollars I have spent, I know of no other WiFi based operating system which is so inconsistent and aggravating.
And I’m not alone. Many of my clients and friends roll their eyes and have their own stories of dysfunction when I observe that they have Sonos speakers. We have hired professional audio persons who state the same. Even after purchasing WiFi boosters (additional $500) we are again experiencing the same poor performance after a brief three month slight upgrade. As an owner of a 25 year old company, I can’t imagine selling such a poor experience with no resolution over the length of time which complaints have been out there on social media and on Sonos’s platform.
Aside from that, they look great. 🙄
