Sonos CONNECT:AMP (ZonePlayer 120) Manual

Introduction

The Sonos CONNECT:AMP includes a built-in state-of-the-art digital amplifier that can power large or small speakers, allowing you to enjoy superior audio quality in every room.

Includes a multi-port Ethernet switch to enable direct connections to routers, computers, or other Sonos products.
Includes analog audio inputs with digital encoding so that music from an external audio source (such as a CD player or portable MP3 player), can be connected to one CONNECT:AMP and played by all the other Sonos products in your system.
Works seamlessly with the complete range of Sonos products.

Adding to an existing Sonos system?
Sonos can be easily expanded room by room. If you are adding this CONNECT:AMP to an existing Sonos system, you can turn directly to "Adding to an Existing Sonos System" section..

Your Home Network

To access music services, Internet radio, and any digital music stored on your computer or Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device, your home network must meet the following requirements:

Home network requirements

Note: Your network must have a high-speed Internet connection, as the Sonos system is designed to provide you with free, online software updates. Your Sonos system must be registered to receive these updates so be sure to register during the setup process. We do not share your e-mail address with other companies.

High-speed DSL/Cable modem, or fiber-to-the-home broadband connection for proper playback of Internet-based music services. (If your Internet service provider only offers Satellite Internet access, you may experience playback issues due to fluctuating download rates.)
If your modem is not a modem/router combination and you want to take advantage of Sonos' automatic online updates, or stream music from an Internet-based music service, you must install a router in your home network.If you do not have a router, purchase and install one before proceeding. If you are going to use the Sonos Controller App on an Android or iOS device, or you are setting up Sonos wirelessly, you will need a wireless router. Please visit our Web site at http://faq.sonos.com/apps for more information.

Note: Sonos communicates over a 2.4GHz home network supporting 802.11 b/g wireless technology. 5GHz networks are not supported in a completely wireless Sonos setup.

Connect a Sonos BRIDGE, BOOST or player to your router if:
You have a larger home where the WiFi performance isn't reliable and you want to strengthen the wireless performance of your Sonos system.
Your WiFi network is already in high demand with streaming video and web surfing and you want to create a separate wireless network exclusively for your Sonos speakers.
You want to pair a SUB and/or a pair of PLAY:1 or PLAY:3 speakers with your PLAYBAR to create a 3.1 or 5.1 home theater setup.
Your home network is 5GHz only (not switchable to 2.4GHz).
For best results, you should connect the computer or NAS drive that contains your personal music library collection to your home network router using an Ethernet cable.

System requirements

Windows XP SP3 and higher (while Windows XP SP3 and higher are compatible with version 5.1, standard wireless setup is only supported on Windows 7 and higher)
Macintosh OS X 10.6.8 and higher (while Macintosh OS X 10.6.8 and higher are compatible with version 5.1, standard wireless setup is only supported on Mac iOS 10.7 and higher)
Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad devices running iOS 6.0 or later, certain features require higher versions of iOS
Android: 2.1 and higher, certain features require higher versions of Android (while Android: 2.1 and higher are compatible with version 5.1, standard wireless setup is only supported on Android 2.3 or 4.0 and higher)

Note: For the latest system requirements, including supported operating system versions, please visit our Web site at http://faq.sonos.com/specs.

The system will detect when a cable is connected to the subwoofer output and adjust the crossover frequency automatically.

Adding to an Existing Sonos System

Once you've got your Sonos system set up, you can easily add more Sonos products any time (up to 32 rooms).
If your house has structured (built-in) wiring, you can make a wired connection to the additional Sonos products. If you don't, our built-in wireless technology is ideal for you.

Attach desired speakers.
- Your speaker's power rating should be at least 75W for 8 Ohm speakers, and at least 150W for 4 Ohm speakers. Do not connect speakers rated at less than 4 Ohms.
- Use your thumb or finger to firmly push the spring-loaded speaker connector post inward to reveal the connection hole.
- Insert the stripped end of the speaker wire into the hole, and then release. The stripped portion should be caught firmly in the connector post.

Note: Connect the red (+) and black (-) terminals from each speaker to the corresponding terminals on the Sonos CONNECT:AMP. Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central sound, and a distorted sense of sound direction.
When making connections, ensure that none of the strands of your speaker wire come in contact with an adjoining terminal on the rear panel.

Repeat to install the other speaker wires.
If your speakers have banana connectors, you can insert the plugs directly into the banana jacks on the back of the CONNECT:AMP instead.

Attach the power cord and plug into a wall outlet—make sure the Voltage Switch on the back of the CONNECT:AMP is set to the proper position for your country before applying power.
After a few moments, the Status indicator will begin to flash green (if this Sonos product was previously connected to another Sonos system, the Status indicator may be solid white instead.)
Choose one of the following options:
- Using a handheld Sonos Controller: Select Add a Player or SUB from the Settings menu, and follow the on-screen prompts to add this product to your Sonos system.
- Using the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC: Select Add a Player or SUB from the Manage menu and follow the prompts to add this product to your Sonos system.

Thick walls, 2.4 GHz cordless telephones, or the presence of other wireless devices can interfere with or block the wireless network signals from your Sonos system. If you experience difficulty after positioning a Sonos product, try one or more of the following resolutions—relocate the Sonos product; change the wireless channel your music system is operating on; connect a Sonos product to your router if your setup is currently wireless.

Playing Music

You can use any Sonos controller to select music—simply touch to select from the music menu on a handheld controller, or click to select from the MUSIC pane within the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC.

Radio

Sonos includes a radio guide that provides immediate access to thousands of free Internet radio stations and broadcast programs. You can easily find radio from all over the world—music, news, and variety programming, including archived shows and podcasts.

To select an Internet radio station, simply select Radio and choose a station.

Music services

A music service is an online music store or online service that sells audio on a per-song, per audiobook, or subscription basis. Sonos is compatible with several music services - you can visit our website at www.sonos.com/howitworks/music/partners for the latest list. (Some music services may not be available in your country. Please check the individual music service's website for more information.)

If you are currently subscribed to a music service that's compatible with Sonos, simply add your music service user name and password information to Sonos as needed and you'll have instant access to the music service from your Sonos system.

To add a music service, touch Add Music Services from the Sonos music menu on your handheld controller.
Select the Sonos-compatible music service you would like to add.
Select Add Account, and then follow the on-screen prompts. Your login and password will be verified with the music service. As soon as your credentials have been verified, the music service displays on the Sonos music menu.

Free music service trials are available in some countries. (Please check the individual music service's website for more information.) If there is a music service trial visible on the Music Services menu, simply touch it to select. Touch Add Account -> I'm new to [music service], and then follow the prompts to activate the music trial. After the trial period is up, you will need to subscribe to the music service to keep the music playing.

Local music library

The Sonos system can play music from any computer or network-attached storage (NAS) device on your home network where you have shared music folders. During the setup process, you are guided through the process of accessing your local music library (such as your iTunes library). Over time, you may wish to add or remove folders from this list.

To make changes to your shared folders list, select the Settings menu from a handheld Sonos controller and then choose one of the following options:

To add a new music folder to Sonos, select Manage Music Library-> Music Library Setup -> Add New Share on a handheld controller.
To remove a music folder, select Manage Music Library-> Music Library Setup. Touch the share you wish to remove and then select Remove.

The Sonos system indexes your music folders so you can view your music collection by categories (such as artists, albums, composers, genres, or tracks.) If you add new music to a folder that is already indexed, simply update your music index to add this music to your Sonos music library.

To update your music index, touch Settings -> Manage Music Library -> Update Music Index Now.
If you'd like your music library to update automatically each day, open the Sonos Controller app on your Mac or PC. Select Manage -> Music Library Settings and click the Advanced tab. Check Library Updates and select an update time.

Wireless iTunes playback

You can select and play music and podcasts stored on any iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch that's on the same network as your Sonos products. Playback is perfectly synchronized, in any or every room of your home. Simply choose This iPad, This iPhone, or This iPod touch from the Sonos app on your iOS device to make audio selections and then you can use any Sonos controller to control playback.

Wireless playback requires Sonos Controller App for iPhone or iPad version 3.8.3 or higher and devices running iOS software version 6.0 or later.

Wireless playback from Android devices

You can select and play music stored on any Android device that's on the same network as your Sonos products. Playback is perfectly synchronized, in any or every room of your home. Simply choose This Mobile Device from the Sonos app on your Android smartphone or tablet to make audio selections and then you can use any Sonos controller to control playback.

Wireless music playback is compatible with Sonos software update 4.1.1 and higher, and any device running Android 2.1 and higher. (Wireless playback of podcasts is supported on Android 2.2 and higher.)

Google Play Music

You can play music to your Sonos system directly from the Google Play Music app on any Android device. This feature is available for both Standard and All Access Google Play Music customers.
To play music directly from the Google Play Music app to your Sonos system, you must have both the Google Play Music app and the Sonos Controller App installed on your mobile device. Sonos playback from Google Play Music is compatible with Sonos software update 4.3 and higher, and with any device running Android 2.3 and higher.
Simply open the Google Play Music app and connect to a Sonos room or room group to start the music. When you are finished, disconnect the Sonos room from the app.

Using Line-In

You can easily stream an external source such as a CD player or portable music player through your Sonos system using the audio-in connections on your Sonos CONNECT:AMP. The device will be automatically detected as soon as you plug it in.

Use a standard RCA cable to plug an external source like a CD player into the analog Audio In connections on the back of your CONNECT:AMP.
If you are connecting a portable music player to the CONNECT:AMP, you will need a 1/8 inch mini-stereo to RCA audio cable instead. Plug the mini-stereo end into the portable device and the RCA end into the Audio In connection on the CONNECT:AMP.

Using a handheld Sonos Controller:

To play music from this line-in source, select Line-In from the Sonos music menu, select the source, and select Play Now.
To change the name of this device, select Rooms from the Settings menu. Select the Sonos product this source is connected to, and then touch Line-In Source Name. Select a new name from the list, or type a unique name.
To change the line-in level, select Rooms from the Settings menu. Select the Sonos product this source is connected to, and then touch Line-In Source Level. Select a new level.

Using the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC:

To play music from this source select Line-In from the MUSIC pane, click next to the music source, and select Play Now.
To change the settings for this device:
- Select Manage -> Settings (PC) or Sonos -> Preferences -> Room Settings (Mac).
- Select the Sonos product your Airport Express is connected to from the Room Settings for drop-down list.
- Click the Line-In tab and update the settings.

A default (typical) line-in level is automatically assigned when you select a source name, but if the volume sounds too low, you can select a higher line level for this device. (You may experience sound distortion at higher volume levels if you set the level too high.)

Line-in encoding settings

When you have line-in music sources attached to a Sonos product, line-in encoding determines how Sonos will encode the data coming in from these sources. Your Sonos system defaults to automatic in order to provide the optimal playback experience. Sonos recommends you do not change this default. However, if you decide to make a change, we recommend the following usage guidelines:

Use Uncompressed if:

You want optimal performance with home theaters.
You want to produce the highest quality sound for your Sonos system (this selection requires more network bandwidth than compressed audio.)

Use Compressed if:

You are connecting more than 4 rooms wirelessly.
You are in an environment with heavy wireless interference and are experiencing dropouts.

To change the line-in encoding setting, select one of the following options:

Using a handheld Sonos controller: From the Settings menu, select Advanced Settings -> Audio Compression.
Using the Sonos Controller for PC: Select Manage -> Settings -> Advanced.
Using the Sonos Controller for Mac: Select Sonos -> Preferences -> Advanced.

For additional information on connecting audio devices, you can go to our Web site at http://faq.sonos.com/cables.

Surround Speakers

You can easily pair two PLAY:1 or PLAY:3 speakers with a PLAYBAR to function as left and right surround channels in your Sonos surround sound experience. For more information, go to http://faq.sonos.com/surround.

If you have a CONNECT:AMP and speakers, the release of Sonos software update 4.2 makes it possible to configure the CONNECT:AMP for surround use. Both the CONNECT:AMP and the PLAYBAR must be wired in this configuration—this is a requirement only when configuring a CONNECT:AMP for surround. It is not a requirement for normal use of these products.

Set up surround speakers

Note: If this is a newly purchased CONNECT:AMP, be sure to add it to your Sonos system before attempting to set up surround speakers.

Connect the PLAYBAR to your router with an Ethernet cable.
Connect the CONNECT:AMP to your router, or to the PLAYBAR, with an Ethernet cable.
Attach desired speakers to the CONNECT:AMP (power rating should be at least 75W for 8 Ohm speakers and at least 150W for 4 Ohm speakers.)
Position the speaker connected to the Left terminal on the CONNECT:AMP as the left surround speaker in your surround sound setup.
Position the speaker connected to the Right terminal on the CONNECT:AMP as the right surround speaker in your surround sound setup.
Note: Make sure your PLAYBAR is not currently configured with any other surround speakers. It can be configured with a SUB.
Locate the IP address for your PLAYBAR.
- Using the Sonos Controller for PC, select Help -> About My Sonos System.
- Using the Sonos Controller for Mac, select Sonos -> About My Sonos System.

From the CONNECT:AMP drop-down, choose None and then click Complete Setup.
If desired, you can now disconnect the CONNECT:AMP from your router and move it to a new location.

Basic Troubleshooting

Do not open Sonos products as there is a risk of electric shock. Under no circumstances should Sonos products be repaired by anyone other than an authorized Sonos repair center, as this will invalidate the warranty. Please contact Sonos Customer Support for more information.

If a problem occurs, you can try the troubleshooting suggestions listed below. If one of these doesn't remedy the problem, or you are not sure how to proceed, please contact the Sonos Customer Support team and we'll be happy to help.

Product(s) not detected during setup

Check to make sure the power cord is properly seated.
A network issue may be preventing the product from connecting to your Sonos system. If this is a wireless Sonos product, try moving the Sonos products closer together, or use an Ethernet cable to hard wire the product to your router temporarily to see if the problem is related to wireless interference.

If you encounter this message while a Sonos product is connected to your router, you can try the steps below to resolve this issue. If you are still experiencing problems, please contact Sonos Customer Support.

Check the firewall
Firewall software installed on the computer may be blocking the ports that Sonos uses to operate. First, disable all your firewalls and try to connect again. If this resolves the problem, you should configure your firewall to work with the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC. Please go to our Web site at http://faq.sonos.com/firewall for additional information. If this does not resolve the problem, you can try step 2 below.
Check the router
You can bypass your router's switch to determine whether there are any router configuration issues by connecting a Sonos product as shown below—in this BOOST configuration example, note that the BOOST and the computer still have Internet access:
- Be sure that your cable/DSL modem is connected to the router's WAN (Internet) port.
- Temporarily remove any other components that are wired to your network.
- Connect an Ethernet cable from the computer directly to the back of the BOOST, and then connect another Ethernet cable from that Sonos product directly to one of the LAN ports on your router.
- When you make a change to your network configuration, you may need to power cycle the Sonos product by unplugging the power cord, and then plugging it back in.
- If you are not using a router, you can visit our Web site at http://faq.sonos.com/norouter for more information.
Check the wiring
Check the indicator lights on both the router and the Sonos product. The link/status lights should be lit solid, and the activity lights on the router should be blinking.
- If the link lights are not lit, try connecting to a different port on your router.
- If the link lights still do not light, try connecting a different Ethernet cable.

Sonos player is not operating properly

If the status indicator is not lit and no sound is produced when the unit is plugged in, check to ensure the power cord is properly seated.
If the status indicator is solid white, make sure the volume is set to a suitable level; make sure MUTE is not on; if CONNECT:AMP, make sure external speakers are connected securely.
If the player has suddenly stopped playing music and the status indicator is flashing orange and white, pause or unplug the player for a few minutes to allow it to cool. Check to make sure the vents are not blocked. See "Player Status Indicators".
Check the link/activity lights on both the router and the Sonos product that is wired to your router. The link lights should be lit solid and the activity lights should be blinking.
- If the link lights are not lit, try connecting to a different port on your router.
- If the link lights still do not light, try using a different Ethernet cable.
Move your Sonos controller closer to a player.
Check to ensure there are no obstacles to impede wireless operation.
Check your network connections.
The Sonos player may need to be reset. Disconnect the power cord for 5 seconds, and then reconnect. Wait for the Sonos player to restart.

Not all rooms are visible, or Sonos app doesn't work in some rooms, or music stops when I use my 2.4 GHz phone
You are probably experiencing wireless interference. You can change the wireless channel your Sonos system is operating on by following the steps below.

Using a handheld Sonos controller: From the Settings menu, touch Advanced Settings -> Wireless Channel. Choose another wireless channel from the list.
Using the Sonos Controller App for PC: Select Settings -> Advanced from the Manage menu. On the General tab, select another wireless channel from the list.
Using the Sonos Controller App for Mac: Select Preferences -> Advanced from the Sonos menu. On the General tab, select another wireless channel from the list.

It may take several seconds for the switch to take effect. If you have music playing, a short music dropout may occur during the wireless channel change.

I have a new router

If you purchase a new router or change your ISP (Internet service provider), you will need to restart all your Sonos products after the router is installed.

Note: If the ISP technician connects a Sonos product to the new router, you only need to restart your wireless Sonos products.

Disconnect the power cord from all of your Sonos products for at least 5 seconds.
Reconnect them one at a time, starting with the Sonos product that is connected to your router.
Wait for your Sonos products to restart. The status indicator light will change to solid white on each product when the restart is complete.

If your Sonos setup is completely wireless, you will also need to change your wireless network password. Follow the steps below:

Temporarily connect one of your Sonos players to the new router with an Ethernet cable.
From the Sonos music menu on your controller, select Settings.
Select Advanced Settings -> Wireless Setup.
Sonos will detect your network.
Enter the password for your wireless network.
Once the password is accepted, unplug the player from your router and move it back to its original location.

I want to change my wireless network password

If your Sonos system is set up wirelessly and you change your wireless network password, you will also need to change it on your Sonos system.

Temporarily connect one of your Sonos players to your router with an Ethernet cable.
Choose one of the following options:
- Using a handheld Sonos controller, select Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Wireless Setup.
- Using the Sonos Controller App for PC, select Settings -> Advanced from the Manage menu. On the General tab, select Wireless Setup.
- Using the Sonos Controller App for Mac, select Preferences -> Advanced from the Sonos menu. On the General tab, select Wireless Setup.
Enter the new wireless network password when prompted.
Once the password is accepted, you can unplug the player from your router and move it back to its original location.
