Why do my Sony SA-NS500 Speakers turn on and start playback automatically?
- E
  Emily MezaSep 5, 2025
  Your Sony Speakers might be turning on and starting playback automatically because they are being controlled by a controller on your network. If the unit is in network standby mode and receives a command to play audio content from a server, it will turn on and start playback. To prevent this, press the ?/1 (ON/Standby) button after setting the STANDBY MODE switch to STANDBY, or set the OPERATE ON/OFF switch to OFF.

  If your Sony Speakers aren't turning on, ensure the AC adapter and power cord are correctly connected. Also, check that the OPERATE ON/OFF switch is set to ON. If it still doesn't work, try setting the OPERATE ON/OFF switch to OFF and then back to ON.

  If the remote control for your Sony Speakers isn't working, first, ensure there are no inverter fluorescent lights nearby, as these can interfere with the signal. Next, verify that the battery is correctly installed and has sufficient charge. Finally, make sure you're aiming the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the unit.

  If your Sony Speakers unit does not work after you set the OPERATE ON/OFF switch to ON, allow about 40 seconds for the unit to turn on. You cannot control the unit while the ?/1 (ON/Standby) indicator is flashing. Please wait until the ?/1 (ON/ Standby) indicator stops flashing.

Why can't the built-in battery be charged in my Sony SA-NS500 Speakers?
- R
  Richard RodriguezAug 31, 2025
  If the built-in battery cannot be charged in your Sony Speakers, check that the OPERATE ON/OFF switch is set to ON. If using the AC power adapter, disconnect it from the outlet, then reconnect it. The battery can only be charged at temperatures between 5 ºC - 35 ºC (41 ºF - 95 ºF). The battery may not charge if the temperature inside the unit increases due to high volume levels, but this is not a malfunction.

Why won't my Sony Speakers connect via the wireless LAN connection using WPS?

  If your Sony Speakers won't connect to a network using WPS, it may be because your access point is set to WEP. Set up your network after searching for the access point using the access point scan.

  If your Sony Speakers unit is not working correctly, it may be affected by static electricity. Try setting the OPERATE ON/OFF switch to OFF, and then set it to ON again. If this doesn't work, reset the unit using the ALL RESET pinhole button.

What to do if my Sony SA-NS500 cannot connect to the network via a wireless LAN connection?

  If your Sony Speakers are unable to connect to the network via a wireless LAN connection, ensure that a network cable is not connected to the unit, as the unit will automatically try to connect via a wired connection if a cable is present. Also, confirm that the access point (wireless LAN router) setting is correct. If the SSID of the access point is hidden, set the SSID stealth mode switch for the access point to OFF.

How to fix sound skipping on Sony SA-NS500 Speakers?
- S
  Samuel HicksAug 27, 2025
  If the sound skips on your Sony Speakers when using a wireless network, try changing the security method to 'WPA/WPA2-PSK (AES)' to potentially improve transfer speed and streaming playback. Also, close any other applications that are running, as the servers might be overloaded. Consider updating the firmware for your wireless LAN router to the latest version as well.

What to do if my Sony SA-NS500 Speakers cannot connect to the network?

  If your Sony Speakers are unable to connect to the network and you're using them in an environment without a router, allow about a minute for the unit to obtain an IP address after powering on. If you're using a fixed IP address, ensure that the IP address isn't already in use by another device. If it is, use a different IP address.
