Trueplay™

Every room is different. Trueplay tuning measures how sound reflects off walls, furnishings, and other surfaces in a room, then fine-tunes your Sonos speaker to make sure it sounds great no matter where you’ve placed it. Trueplay works on iOS mobile devices running iOS 8 or later. During tuning, you’ll move around the room holding your mobile device.

1. Select System, and pick the room you want to tune.
2. Choose Trueplay Tuning to get started.

Auto Trueplay

Portable Sonos products like Sonos Roam and Move can tune themselves automatically. AutoTrueplay uses your speaker’s microphone to detect the environment and make periodic tuning adjustments so you get great sound wherever your speaker is and whatever you’re listening. Go to System, and select your portable speaker to turn on auto Trueplay.

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 favourite listening position should be 8 to 12feet from the paired speakers—less distance increases bass, and 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 StereoPair to get started. Learn more
