Sonos Controller for Mac or PC
2-19
Changing the audio compression setting
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 components wirelessly.
• You are in an environment with heavy wireless interference and are experiencing dropouts.
1. Choose one of the following:
• Using the Sonos Controller for PC, select Manage -> Settings.
• Using the Sonos Controller for Mac, select Sonos -> Preferences.
2. Select Advanced.
3. On the General tab, select Compressed or Uncompressed from the Audio Compression drop-down list.
Turning Off Music System
Your Sonos system is designed to be always on; the system uses minimal electricity whenever it is not playing music. To
quickly stop streaming music in all rooms, select Pause All from the ROOMS pane.
Your Sonos components will remain off until you press Play to restart each room or group.
