What's great about Sonos is that the speakers can be paired and grouped in different ways all through the Sonos app either on the ipad/iphone/droid or through the app on the Win/Mac platform.

Playbar, Sub and Surround. Oh my!

The Sonos Playbar/Soundbar is rather straightforward. Adding the Sonos Sub is straightforward as well.

Adding the surround can be not-so-straightforward:

  • -setup Playbar/Soundbar via Sonos app.
  • -setup the Surround Amp via Sonos app.
  • -afterwards, click help > about-my-sonos-system
  • -find the IP of the Playbar/Soundbar (not Amp).
  • -open a browser (Internet-Explorer, Firefox, Chrome)
  • -type: http://the-ip-of-the-soundbar:1400/wiredsat.htm
    (for example: http://192.168.1.147:1400/wiredsat.htm)

It is straightforward from this point.
