· Move’s remaining battery life is always visible in the Sonos app.
100-240 VAC, ~50/60 Hz, 1.2 A. Output: 18.0 VDC, 2.5 A, 45.0 W
Make sure the speaker is seated properly in the base and the charging contacts are touching.
Use a compatible USB-C charger.

Select a location
You can put your speaker just about anywhere. Here are a few guidelines:
· Move is made to give you powerful sound anywhere–auto Trueplay tuning periodically balances the sound for wherever you are and whatever you’re listening to. The microphone has to be on for automatic tuning so if you don’t leave the microphone on all the time, turn it on for a few minutes whenever you move your speaker so it can automatically adjust the sound for your new surroundings.
· Move sounds great even when placed next to a wall or on a shelf. For best performance, leave at least 1″ (2.5 cm) space around the back of the speaker.
· It’s ultra durable. With a tough outer shell and IP56 rating, Sonos Move is built to withstand falls, bumps, moisture, dust, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Just don’t leave it out in a soaking rain storm, and remember that the charging base that’s included is for indoor use only.
· Don’t use or store your Sonos Move upside down.
Auto Trueplay
You can put Sonos Move just about anywhere. Auto Trueplay tuning optimizes the sound for wherever you are and whatever you’re listening to. Your speaker’s microphone is used to detect the environment so auto Trueplay can make periodic tuning adjustments to deliver the best sound.
If you don’t want the microphone on all the time, be sure to turn it on whenever you move the speaker. Your Sonos Move starts retuning when you pick it up, and continues to adjust the sound for a few minutes after you place it in a new location.
Note: Auto Trueplay is disabled while you’re using Bluetooth.

SONOS USER GUIDE

Microphone on/off

The microphone is used for voice control, and for auto Trueplay tuning. Touch or off.

to turn the microphone on

When the microphone light is on,
· If you have a voice assistant, voice control is on and your voice assistant is ready to respond. · Auto Trueplay tuning is enabled so Move can automatically adjust its sound for your surroundings. When the microphone light is off,
· If you have a voice assistant, voice control is off. · Auto Trueplay tuning is disabled.

Switch modes
Set Move up on your WiFi, then use the mode switch on the back of Move to switch between Bluetooth and WiFi. When you use Bluetooth for the first time, you’ll need to pair Move with your mobile device. Once paired, they’ll reconnect automatically next time.

Five
The high-fidelity speaker for superior sound–
· Three woofers provide deep bass within a sealed architecture that eliminates reverb and echo. Two side tweeters create an ultra wide soundstage while a center tweeter optimizes vocal playback.
· Use the line-in port to connect your turntable or another device–simple control with the Sonos S2 app or Apple AirPlay 2.
· Versatile design with smart orientation sensing. Pair two speakers horizontally and Five automatically separates the left and right channels for impressive stereo sound. When paired vertically, each smartly adjusts to mono for more detailed stereo separation and an even wider soundstage.
· Pair two Fives for left-right stereo sound or use two Fives as rear surrounds for your home theater.

· Compatible with

· See Getting started when you’re ready to add a Five to your Sonos system.

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum performance, we have a few guidelines:
· The Five is a substantial and powerful speaker and should be placed on a flat surface that is robust and durable enough to properly support it. Make sure Five’s rubber feet sit completely on the flat surface.
· Allow at least 2″ perimeter all around Five including its power cord. · For a single Five speaker we recommend positioning the speaker horizontally to enable stereo sound. · Place Five across the room from where you’ll be listening (at or close to your ear height for best results). · For stereo pair placement information, see Stereo pairs. · The Five is humidity resistant so you can use it in the bathroom; however it is not water resistant so don’t
position it near water or leave it outside during a rain storm.

What can you do with Amp?
Play music through your favorite speakers
Connect your favorite bookshelf, floor-standing, in-wall, or in-ceiling speakers to Amp to stream all the music you love. Connect a turntable, stereo, or portable music player and play the sound on any Sonos speaker.
Enhance your TV sound
Connect Amp to your TV to create the ultimate entertainment system. · Use Amp and a pair of 3rd-party speakers to create two front audio channels. · Use Amp with third-party speakers to add surround sound if you already have a Sonos home theater speaker (Beam, Playbase, Playbar, or another Amp) connected to your TV.
(For even deeper sound, add a Sonos Sub or connect a third-party subwoofer.) See Connect Amp to your TV for setup information.
Select a location
You can place Amp just about anywhere– in an electronics rack, on a shelf, or on a credenza with your TV.
Rack mounted
· Amp mounts perfectly in any electronics rack. · Place two Amps side by side in a 2U rack. · Place four Amps in a 3U rack.
Placed on a credenza
· Place horizontally on a stable and level surface at least 3 in / 50 mm from the TV. · Don’t block the TV’s IR sensor. · If put on a shelf, place at the front and keep 3″ (minimum) clearance on all sides. · Don’t block the front of Amp so you can reach the touch controls.
Connect the cables
Attach desired speakers
Your speakers’ power rating should be at least 125W for 8 ohm speakers, and at least 200W for 4 ohm speakers. Do not connect speakers rated at less than 4 ohm.
Note: Amp can drive speakers with nominal impedance above 4 ohms. Two pairs of 8 ohm speakers wired in parallel are also supported. Don’t wire your speakers in series because it will result in poor sound quality.
1. Remove the cap from the banana plug to reveal the connection hole. 2. Insert the stripped end of the speaker wire into the hole, then return the cap to the banana plug to secure
the connection.
Note: Connect the red (+) and black (-) terminals from each speaker to the corresponding banana plug and terminal on Amp. Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central sound and a distorted sense of sound direction.

SONOS USER GUIDE
3. Insert the banana plug into the proper speaker terminal on the back of Amp. 4. Repeat to install the other speaker wires.
Connect the power cord
Attach the power cord and plug in Amp. You’ll use our app to set up and control your Sonos system. If you don’t have the Sonos app, download it from your app store. See Controls and lights.
Connect Amp to your TV
Use an HDMI cable to connect Amp to your TV. When connected, Amp creates two front audio channels and plays your TV sound through your favorite non-Sonos speakers.
Note: You may need the optical adapter too (the app lets you know). 1. Fully insert the HDMI cable into Amp’s HDMI port. 2. Connect the HDMI cable to your TV. You have two choices:
· If your TV has an HDMI ARC port, connect the HDMI cable directly to the TV’s HDMI ARC port. · If your TV doesn’t have an HDMI ARC port, attach the optical adapter to the HDMI cable and connect
it to the TV’s optical digital OUT port.
If your TV has an HDMI ARC port HDMI ARC is a special port that looks like a standard HDMI port. Although they look the same, if you connect to a standard HDMI port, you won’t hear sound. 1. On your TV’s audio OUT panel, locate the HDMI ARC port.
It may be on the back or side of your TV. Look for the port with “ARC” on the label.

When Port’s line-out level is set to Variable, you can use the Sonos app to adjust the volume.

SONOS USER GUIDE
1. Adjust your AVR or amplifier’s volume to your typical listening volume. 2. Make sure the line-out level is set to Variable. If it’s not, you’ll need to change it:
· Go to settings and choose Variable for the Line-Out Level. 3. Use the Sonos app to adjust the volume so you can hear music on your Sonos system. It may need to be
turned up fairly high. 4. Readjust the volume on your AVR or amplifier so it falls within your typical listening range.
Use Sonos to control the volume on your home theater or amplifier
When Port’s line-out level is set to Pass-Through, Port stays at a fixed volume and sends volume commands to your amplifier. You can control volume using the Sonos app, a universal remote, or your voice if you have a voice assistant enabled.
· Go to settings and choose Pass-Through for the Line-Out Level.
Note: Make sure your amplifier supports Pass-Through. If you set the line-out level to Pass-Through and your amplifier doesn’t support it, you won’t be able to control the volume.

If you purchased a Boost to replace a Sonos product that’s connected to your router, first add the Boost to your Sonos system, then plug it into your router and move the one that was originally wired.
If you purchased a Boost to extend the range of your Sonos system, place the Boost in between the Sonos speaker that’s out of reach and the rest of the Sonos system.
Wall mounting
1. Choose a location that’s close to an electrical outlet (power cord length is 6 ft. / 1.8m), away from heat sources, hidden wiring, gas lines, etc.
2. Drive an American standard #6 round head screw (metric, M3.5 round head screw) into the wall, leaving a gap between the wall and the screw head (approximately 0.13 in / 3.3mm).

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum performance, we have a few guidelines:
· The Play:5 is a substantial and powerful speaker and should be placed on a flat surface that is robust and durable enough to properly support it. Make sure the Play:5’s rubber feet sit completely on the flat surface.
· Allow at least 2″ perimeter all around the Play:5 including its power cord. · For a single Play:5 speaker we recommend positioning the speaker horizontally, enabling stereo sound
over a wide sound stage. (A single Play:5 speaker positioned in vertical mode is a mono speaker–there is no stereo separation.) · Place the Play:5 across the room from where you’ll be listening (at or close to your ear height for best results). · For stereo pair placement information, see Stereo pairs. · The Play:5 is humidity resistant so you can use it in the bathroom; however it is not water resistant so don’t position it near water or leave it outside during a rain storm.

Rooms
Everyone in the house can listen to something different, or you can group Sonos products together to play the same music. If you have a home theater speaker, you can send the TV sound to other rooms, too.
Tap on a mobile device to see what’s playing in each room. To change what’s playing, tap a room, and choose different content from Browse, Search, or My Sonos.
Select to play the same music in more than one room. With the Sonos S2 app, you can also save a group of rooms to easily select it again later.
If you’re near a speaker, press and hold the button to easily add the music from another room. If different content is playing in different rooms, just press and hold until you hear the sound you want.

Room Settings
You can customize Sonos products for your surroundings.

with the best sound for that room. Learn more
Sonos products ship with preset equalization settings. You can change the sound settings (bass, treble, balance, or loudness) to suit your personal
preferences. Learn more
If you move your speaker to a new room, you can change its name in your room’s settings.
There’s a status light on each product. If the light is distracting, you can turn it off in your room’s settings.
If it ever flashes orange, you can get more information about the LED states.
You can disable the touch control buttons on your speaker. You may want to do this to prevent a child or curious pet from accidentally adjusting playback or

Turn off WiFi Line-In

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 some wired speakers. For products like Amp, Connect, and Connect:Amp, turning off WiFi can reduce the internal temperature
when they’re placed in a rack or stacked. Learn more
You can connect an audio device like a turntable, stereo, or MP3 player to a Play:5, Amp, Connect, or
Connect:Amp and stream the audio to Sonos. Learn more

Stereo pairs
Pair two Sonos speakers in the same room for a 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. Get more information about stereo pairs.
