Managing Zones
What Are Zones
A zone is just another word for a room in your house — Sonos lets you enjoy music in up to 32 rooms, inside or out. You can
group rooms together to play the same song in every room, or you can listen to different songs in every room. This means
you can group the kitchen and the patio together while barbecuing, group all the rooms in the house together for a party, or
leave the rooms ungrouped and let the kids can enjoy rap in their rooms while you listen to jazz in your office.
Zones can be managed from any Sonos controller. Use the Zone Menu to:
• Select a room to play some music in
• See the music that's currently playing in every room
• Group rooms together to form a zone group
• Drop a room from a zone group
Music continues to play while you browse. The current room is highlighted on your screen, and the music selections you
make play in that room.
Grouping Zones
A room can be grouped together with one or more other rooms so that all the rooms in the group play the same music in
synchrony. You can group or ungroup rooms while the music is playing. You can also group all the rooms in your house with
one touch by selecting Select All - Party Mode.
You can first group rooms together and then select music to play, or you can add rooms to a location where music is already
playing.
Any rooms you group automatically drop their current music queue and begin to play the music queue from the highlighted
room. If you want to be able to return to that music queue later, you can save it as a Sonos playlist before grouping the
rooms. See Sonos Playlists for more information.
