Additional Preferences

In addition to selecting your Internet radio preferences ("Auto updating your Internet

Radio List" on page 4-85) and software update preferences ("Setting software update

preferences" on page 5-6), you can also change the wireless channel your Sonos

system operates on, and change the line-in encoding preferences.

Selecting a different wireless channel

The Sonos Digital Music System selects the optimal radio frequency channel during

setup. However, if you have other wireless devices using this channel, you may want to

switch the Sonos Digital Music System to another channel to avoid conflicts, as

conflicts may cause audio drop-outs.

1. From the File menu, select Preferences.

2. Click the Advanced tab.

3. Select another wireless channel from the Wireless Channel drop-down list, and

click OK.

It may take several seconds for the switch to take effect. If you have music playing, a

short music dropout will occur during the wireless channel change.

Line-in encoding

The audio from line-in sources can be encoded to produce compressed or

uncompressed audio. 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 multi-zone Sonos

system (this selection requires more network bandwidth than compressed

audio.)

•Use Compressed if:

• You are connecting more than 4 zones wirelessly.

1. From the File menu, select Preferences.

2. Click the Advanced tab.

3. Select Compressed or Uncompressed from the Line-In Encoding list, and click

OK.
