*** Official SONOS Thread ***

Love ours, we use it in the garden all the time, as well as the bathroom, also take it on holiday too for music in the hotel room. Just very handy and sounds good for its size.

Was going to get the green roam 2 sometime in the next week or so, but out of stock on Sonos until mid August.
Might get the white instead but the green looks really nice.
 
My friend has the Sonos Ultimate Immersive Set with Arc Ultra and it sounds incredible, but damn, the Q990D for £699 can’t be ignored :-o

Presumably there’s a new model coming out soon if they’re being discounted by that much?

Mainstream soundbar makers like Samsung launch new models every single year, the q990d is no doubt to be replaced. This makes buying them on sale a great deal but buying them at full price really stupid because they depreciate off a cliff compared to Sonos products
Samsung have already replaced the D, Q990F is available to buy. The soundbar and surrounds are the same as last year but the subwoofer has been redesigned.
 
Very happy with my roam as well. Had it since release and has been ideal. Now and again (not that frequently) if I try and play music from my phone via WiFi it stutters. Which is strange as both have great signal. Not sure why it does it or how to fix it other than switching off and on again. Bluetooth, not had a problem.
 
Is the Samsung better?

There isn't much in it in terms of sound quality. The Samsung is slightly better straight out of the box and the Sonos is better if you're ever listening to stereo only content. The Samsung also has better connectivity, but with the Sonos system, you can upgrade it incrementally. For example, if they released Era 500 speakers, you could just buy those instead of an entirely new system.

The price difference is significant though. You can get the Samsung flagship model for less than £699 at certain times of the year when various offers, such as cashback, trade-in and price cuts align.
 
I ordered my Sonos roam 2 today, at the time I didn't realise I get 15% off upgrade discount, so that was a result.

Trying to work out what Im upgrading from though :cry:, I have had some original play 1s a long time ago and now just have arc ultra and sub. Im guessing the 15% upgrade discount is just site wide and does not matter what devices you own currently.
 
The Roam 2 has been really handy following newborn around house as a white noise machine.

Has anyone used the unofficial wireless charging bases and can vouch for quality or is it best to splash out for the official?
 
Roam 2 question

Any benefit using Sonos app to play Apple Music vs Apple Music app and airplay?

I know roam 2 doesn’t support atmos I think so wondering if I should be better off just air playing to the roam via the actual Apple music app.

Thanks
