    Thanks for the walk through mate. This was very helpful and have fixed our issues with the Sonos One running Alexa. The confusion with two accounts being open was the issue. All sorted... Thank you

    I was one click away from buying the Amazon Echo the other day. I have a Sonos system at home already, but didn't realise the existence of the Sonos One. After watching your video I'm definitely buying the Sonos One. Your video was so clear and concise. Also, having owned Sonos products for a number of years, the thing that swung it for me was your opinion on the sound quality. Amazon versus Sonos no comparison. Apparently now all new Sonos Ones have the Alexa app built in. Thanks for your brilliant video.

    Very good! After a couple failed hours I was finally able to set this up. The key: alignment of all the same Amazon account!

    Thanks for this video! Are you able to control soundcloud on sonos one and every other sonos in your house if it's in a group with your voice through alexa (whether it's an external echo dot, or sonos one with alexa enabled)?

    Maybe a stupid question, do you need an Amazon echo (dot) to be able to use alexa with sonos one? Or do you just need the app?

  • @hazmat5749
    @hazmat5749 Před 10 měsíci

    I have 3 Echo premium 4th gen speakers in a multi room setup, I was thinking of adding a couple of Echo Studio speakers as a stereo pair in my lounge but people say the Sonos sound is better.
    Do you agree, should I go for a pair of Sonos Ones instead? (its mostly for music rather than home theatre).
    Will they integrate fully with Alexa so I can run routines and control my smart home through Sonos?
    Any advice is appreciated.

    If I made the mistake of signing in with the wrong amazon account, how do I start over in the Sonos App. How do I reset Sonos and start over in the app. Simply restating. The Sonos device did not work. The app looks for the original device.

  • @techtropolis8723
    @techtropolis8723 Před 6 lety +2

    Do you know if I’d be able to use 2 Sonos One’s as surround sound with my Apple TV and still use my Bose sound bar that hooked up directly?

    • @GeekSmart
      @GeekSmart  Před 6 lety

      No, in order to use the Sonos Ones for surround you have to use the Sonos Playbar for the soundbar.

    • @techtropolis8723
      @techtropolis8723 Před 6 lety

      GeekSmart Thanks for the reply. I meant to ask if I would be able to use Air Play 2 (when it’s released) to connect two One’s to my Apple TV. If so, would I also be able to have sound come out of my hardwired Solo 5?

    • @GeekSmart
      @GeekSmart  Před 6 lety

      I don’t know the answer to be honest, but I would say I doubt it

    • @techtropolis8723
      @techtropolis8723 Před 6 lety

      GeekSmart ok thanks. I’m hoping it will. I’ll have to wait and see. Hopefully Airplay 2 comes out for the Sonos not too long after the HomePod is finally released.

  • @oliverghost1
    @oliverghost1 Před 4 lety +1

    I have just bought one today, I plugged it in and downloaded the Sonos app when I open the Sonos app it doesn't give me the option to set up a new Sonos, just the option to connect to an existing system...Any idea's as to why this is happening.

    • @peterc2452
      @peterc2452 Před 3 lety

      That usually happens if it’s been previously setup with a different system. You should reset the speaker to factory and then it will allow to setup new Sonia system. Docs have instructions on reset. Usually hold down button while plugging in for 5 seconds

    where did you get watch band from and will sonos first gen work in the same way.

    • @GeekSmart
      @GeekSmart  Před 6 lety

      Sonos Play One would be some setup, just no Alexa integration. You can control the Play speakers from another Amazon enabled device.
      The Watch bad is no longer sold that I am aware of, just a cheap Amazon band (one orange and the other blue).

  • @miltonblanchard
    @miltonblanchard Před 6 lety

    So if you have multiple Sonos One speakers in the same room, will Alexa figure out which you are closest to just like the Echo’s do?

    • @GeekSmart
      @GeekSmart  Před 6 lety

      I would say that they operate the same way that Amazons echos do, and if you ask a question any speaker that hears you would respond

    • @miltonblanchard
      @miltonblanchard Před 6 lety

      GeekSmart thanks for the reply. I have multiple echos near each other and while both will hear me (the ring turns on), only one will reply.

    • @GeekSmart

      You can control any Sonos speaker from any Alexa product

    • @jonmarquez3205
      @jonmarquez3205 Před 6 lety

      I've tried. Can't seem to find how to pair them to play at the same time. Went through both sonos and alexa app and can't seem to find how to do so.

    • @GeekSmart
      @GeekSmart  Před 6 lety

      You can't play a Sonos Speaker and a Amazon Speaker at the same time, but you can control it with the Echo Dot. Both are different ecosystems, so even if you could get them to play at the same time, they would be off and it would sound terrible.

      Sonos One works with most music subscriptions out there, including Apple Music. However, the Alexa assistant cannot control Apple Music, so you have to use the App
