One (Model:S13)
The One (Model:S13) is the voice speaker for music lovers.
• Now you can control Sonos with your voice using Amazon Alexa (and other voice services as they
become available).
• Two custom-designed drivers, 3.5 in / 9 cm mid-woofer and tweeter, each with a dedicated amplifier.
• Works seamlessly with the complete range of Sonos products.
New to Sonos?
It takes just a few steps to get Sonos up and running—get the Sonos app and follow the setup instructions
(see The Sonos App for download info). Once you’ve got it set up, you can add more speakers any time.
Adding to an existing Sonos system?
Sonos can be easily expanded room by room. If you are adding a One (Model:S13) to an existing Sonos
system, see Adding to an Existing Sonos System for more information.
Your Home Network
To use the Sonos app, your device must be on the same Wi-Fi network as Sonos. If you need help, please go
to http://faq.sonos.com/searching.
Requirements
To access music services, Internet radio, and music stored on your computer or Network-Attached Storage
(NAS) device, make sure your network meets these requirements.
![](/img.php?id=3529021&img=bg4.png)
Product Guide
2
• High-speed DSL/cable modem, or fiber-to-the-home broadband connection for proper playback of
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 isn’t a modem/router combination and you want to take advantage of Sonos’ automatic
online updates or use a streaming music service, you’ll need to install a wireless router before setting up
Sonos.
• Connect a Sonos BOOST or speaker to your router if:
• You have a larger home where the Wi-Fi performance isn’t reliable and you want to strengthen the
wireless performance of your Sonos system.
• Your Wi-Fi 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.
• Your network is 5GHz only (not switchable to 2.4GHz).
• You have configured your router to support only 802.11n and can’t change the settings to support
802.11 b/g/n.
• For best results, you should connect the computer or NAS drive that contains your personal music library
collection to your network router using an Ethernet cable.
The Sonos App
You can use the free Sonos app with any compatible device, including:
•Sonos app (Android)—Android 4.0 and higher; certain features require later versions.
Touch t h e Play Store or Market button on your Android device to download the free Sonos app from
Google Play.
•Sonos app (iOS)—iPhone, iPad and iPod touch running iOS 8.0 or later; certain features may require
later versions.
Touch t h e App Store button on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad to download the free Sonos app, or
download the application from iTunes®. (If you download from iTunes, you will need to sync before you
see the Sonos logo display on your device.)
•Sonos app (PC)—Windows® 7 and higher; certain features require later versions.
Download from our website at www.sonos.com/support/downloads.
•Sonos app (Mac)—Macintosh® OS X 10.9 or later
Download from our website at www.sonos.com/support/downloads.
Note: Make sure your network has a high-speed Internet connection because
Sonos 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.
Note: Sonos communicates over a 2.4GHz home network supporting 802.11
b/g/n wireless technology. 802.11n only network configurations are not
supported—you can either change the router settings to 802.11 b/g/n or connect a
Sonos product to your router.

Selecting a Location
You can locate a One (Model:S13) just about anywhere. For maximum enjoyment, we have a few guidelines:
• The One (Model:S13) is designed to work well even when placed next to a wall or other surface. For best
performance, we recommend maintaining more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) clearance around the back of the
unit.
• The One (Model:S13) is humidity-resistant so you can use it in the bathroom; however it is not water-
resistant so don’t position it near water or leave it outside during a rain storm.
Adding to an Existing Sonos System
Once you’ve got your Sonos music system set up, you can easily add more Sonos products any time (up to
32).
1. Select a location for your One (Model:S13) (see Selecting a Location above for optimal placement
guidelines.)
2. Attach the power cord to the One (Model:S13) and apply power. Be sure to push the power cord firmly
into the bottom of the One (Model:S13) until it is flush with the bottom of the unit.
3. Choose one of the following options:
• Using the Sonos app on a mobile device: Select Add a Player or SUB from Settings and follow the on-
screen prompts to add this product to Sonos.
• Using the Sonos app on a Mac or PC: Select Add a Player or SUB from the Manage menu and follow
the prompts to add this product to Sonos.

Swipe left to right between the touch controls to get to the next track;
swipe right to left to hear the previous track.
(Next/Previous touch controls don’t work when you’re listening to a
radio station.)
Join button Press the round Join button on the back of the unit to connect the One
(Model:S13).
Ethernet port You can use an Ethernet cable (supplied) to connect the One
(Model:S13) to a router, computer, or additional network device such as
a network-attached storage (NAS) device.
AC power (mains) input
(100 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz)
Use only the supplied power cord to connect to a power outlet (using a
third-party power cord will void your warranty).
Insert the power cord firmly into the One (Model:S13) until it is flush
with the bottom of the unit.
Note: If you want to make a wired connection, connect a standard Ethernet cable
from your router or another Sonos product (or a live network wall plate if you have
built-in wiring) to an Ethernet port on the back of the One (Model:S13).

Sonos One 5
Thick walls, 2.4 GHz cordless telephones, or the presence of other wireless devices can interfere with or block
the wireless network signals from Sonos. 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.
Tune Your Room with Trueplay™
Go ahead, put your Sonos speakers wherever you want. Trueplay listens to your room and tunes your
speakers so you hear the sound you love, custom tuned to the room where you’re listening (works on mobile
devices running iOS 8 or later).
Choose Settings -> Room Settings. Pick a room and touch Trueplay Tuning to get started.
Creating a Stereo Pair
The stereo pair setting lets you group two One (Model:S13)s in the same room to create a wider stereo
experience. One speaker serves as the left channel and the other serves as the right channel.
Placement information
• When you’re creating a stereo pair, place the two Sonos speakers 8 to 10 feet away from each other.
• Your favorite listening position should be 8 to 12 feet from the paired speakers—less distance will
increase bass, more distance will improve stereo imaging.
Note: Trueplay tuning is not available if VoiceOver is enabled on your iOS device. If
you want to tune your speakers, first turn VoiceOver off on your device and then
select Settings -> Room Settings from the Sonos app.
Note: You can also create a stereo pair using two PLAY:1s, PLAY:3s or PLAY:5s.
You just can’t create a mixed stereo pair—the speakers have to be the same type.
