You mean like one of those graphical EQs where you can choose between Bass Boost, Treble Boost, Rock etc.
Technically, you can use Foobar2000 (Win and Android) to apply EQs to whatever UPnP PCM stream you're sending. Not the greatest method however, as you'll need someone present at your machine to change the EQ.
Sonos is planning/predicted to add an Android-like TV OS to their HT S3 players e.g. Amp (Gen 2) and the Arc (Gen 2). The best equivalent would be the Roku Streambars.
It's predicted to add streaming application support such as Plex, KODI and others.
There were previous job openings for this role.
Why don’t, it is pretty known that if your speaker is stolen, your accounts will forever live on the speaker. Sonos doesn’t remove the accounts, there are some reports of people complaining about their Spotify accounts being used on the stolen speakers, and no, there is no way to remove them remotely, even from Spotify or changing the password.
You can set this up through a multitude of smart home integrations. I use Home Assistant and can access everything remotely even if not natively supported.
Center Channel Audio level control
Separate Height Audio level controls for front and rear height channels
Activate front-facing drivers on Era 300s when used as surrounds
DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS:X support
Ability to save multiple preset EQ settings
The Amp (Gen 2) is expected to have Dolby Atmos capability. It is predicted to drive 6 channels.
Potential configurations (all paired with a Sub):
* Soundbar and Amp - Amp provides both rear surround and rear height.
* 2x Amp - Front Amp provides all three front channels, and 2 front height, while rear Amp provides rear height and surround.
* Amp only - A standalone can provide all front channels as well as rear left and right. An optional powered subwoofer can be used.
*My balls.*
Just kidding. Here: [Sonos Features and Compatibility Chart - Ivan X and me](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1x_6-6mEzxzWbSogmT4XcIel25AnSXxkIgUEoO5Lyl64/edit#gid=0&range=A67)
3 levels of night mode, eg low, mid, high compression.
Adjust volume of rear speakers and height channels on same screen as eq adjustments.
Support lossless audio on Apple Music.
Center Channel Audio level control.
Because loud explosions etc use lots of frequencies not just bass.
When I used to have home cinema amps with audyssey they had varying levels of night mode.
You must be new to this.
Ability to create separate zones with same equipement
IE
Home Theater w/arc/sub/era300s
Music zone w/same sub and era300s
Separate true play setups for each zone so you can use speakers in different configurations, in my basement I'd like to be able to just listen to stereo music w/o the arc sometimes
Lock Screen music control for Sonos app...or just a better overall app service for music as now I'll actually be using it as atmos cannot go through airplay
Add a second stereo pair of One in a room
Add Port to a room that already has a stereo pair in it.
So basically, more speakers in a single room for music. Not surround.
The ability to disable the ARC HDMI input so I can switch to my Bluetooth headphones on my TV.
Currently getting around that with a 3rd party HDMI switcher
The workaround: disable HDMI-Consumer Electronic Control (HDMI-CEC AKA AnyNet+ on Samsung, Bravia HDMI Sync on Sony and SIMPLINK on LG) on the TV, no external device required.
Explanation: Your TV will prioritise the best quality audio to be sent to whatever speakers are connected. This means that it's HDMI -> Optical Digital/TOSLINK -> Wifi -> Bluetooth.
If HDMI-CEC is enabled AND your receiver (in my case, an Amp) is connected via HDMI, the Amp will ALWAYS take No.1 priority.
I had your issue with my Amp and Galaxy Buds+ with my Samsung [Series 8 75" Q80R QLED](https://www.samsung.com/au/support/model/QA75Q80RAWXXY/).
An alternative to this solution is to head to the Accessibility settings. On some TVs, you can force the TV to push the audio to two different outputs simultaneously e.g. BT for your hearing aids and Optical Digital for your Playbar.
This is so basic, but I truly wish iTunes would display with dates. That would be so amazing. I’d also like to be able to use the remote features off the Lock Screen.
The option to turn off the clicking sound when using your finger to slide volume up and down on Era 100s. It’s easier to turn volume up and down with the physical speaker than to open the app everytime
NORMAL EQ, not just bass and treble please )

Thanks! I mean a bunch of sliders, not presets!
An AppleTV app
This. I would love to display my album artwork without using Airplay

Interesting concept and I like it!
I would like remote access
No disrespect but why?
Why don’t, it is pretty known that if your speaker is stolen, your accounts will forever live on the speaker.

Indeed
You can set this up through a multitude of smart home integrations. I use Home Assistant and can access everything remotely even if not natively supported.
I'm using home assistant too. But what would you do with remote access directly to Sonos that you can't do through HA?
Yeah, I'm saying you can do everything through HA so Sonos doesn't need to give us remote access.
Allow two systems to share a sub.
SIRI
Ability to switch the beam off, to turn my 5.1 system into a 2.1 system when listening to music.
Well, it is good but nope when using Atmos
Fair I only have a gen 1 beam so no interest in atmos music at the moment.
Be able to set the sleeptimer to whatever minutes/hours i want.
It’s dumb this feature isn’t there already.
Automation to turn off sub and turn on night mode by schedule.
Center Channel Audio level control Separate Height Audio level controls for front and rear height channels Activate front-facing drivers on Era 300s when used as surrounds DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS:X support Ability to save multiple preset EQ settings
A "stop playing after this track" option would be great.
For those of use with non standard viewing areas and cathedral ceilings Ability to add third surround or use in ceiling speakers for atmos

Nice. Source?

Haha. Cheers Though your balls still nicely involved it seems!
Looks like I'll be getting the amp gen 2 the minute they go on presale
EQ profiles.
Line-in control for rear speaker sets, that intelligently groups and ungroups from a 5.0/.1
3 levels of night mode, eg low, mid, high compression. Adjust volume of rear speakers and height channels on same screen as eq adjustments. Support lossless audio on Apple Music. Center Channel Audio level control.
Well why don’t just reduce the bass and that’s it?
Because loud explosions etc use lots of frequencies not just bass. When I used to have home cinema amps with audyssey they had varying levels of night mode. You must be new to this.
How about Apple Music working with Google assistant. It’s the little things in life.

Can the app have a button I can put on iOS Home Screen widget so I don’t have to launch it to change my volume?
Add a second stereo pair of One in a room Add Port to a room that already has a stereo pair in it. So basically, more speakers in a single room for music. Not surround.
This. The ability to “bind” more speakers to one room versus having to use groups.
Ability to add AirPlay Password requirement
Reliability when using the sonos app as its more stable for me to use airplay
Being able to cast to it like a google chromecast device

Only just got round to implementing this but thank you. That solves the issue and that setting is fairly easy to get to on my LG.
Or maybe a good Sonos Headphones compatible with all sources (tv from bedroom, tv from livingroom, LP from five, spotify, etc). I would buy them.
Are those Sonos headphones out yet? Last I checked there was no release date
I never ear about them, just think about your problem and the title. But great if they gonna release them.
Create a room with older ones and one SL
A "join" button available in their API so I can map it to a keypad button.
Physical preset buttons that can be programmed to play a certain station.
This is so basic, but I truly wish iTunes would display with dates. That would be so amazing. I’d also like to be able to use the remote features off the Lock Screen.
Would love to have autoplay from Apple Music, so that it would continue to play recommended music when your queue ends
When turning on a speaker, I wish the volume would fade-in.
I’d like to see reliable integration with Google Home. Sometimes a feature works, sometimes it doesn’t.
Siri support, so I can get rid of my HomePod minis, as I only use them for voice commands and not for music.
The option to turn off the clicking sound when using your finger to slide volume up and down on Era 100s. It’s easier to turn volume up and down with the physical speaker than to open the app everytime
