Dear Okoehn

 

I have SONOS in 4 rooms (1 AMP and 3 SONOS1), and i play different music in all rooms from one acount.

 

But you can not play from SONOS and Spotify in the same time. Then one of them will stop.

 

I use both Spotify playlists and SONOS playlists. It works fine.

 

I am not an expert, but if you have any quiestions dont hesitate to ask. I til try to help.

 

Best regards

Not sure if it means 1 account, but on the sonos help article it says:

 

 

https://support.spotify.com/problems/#!/article/Sonos

 

"Sonos devices

You can control your Sonos system from the Sonos controller, the Sonos iPhone app, or any computer and stream different tracks to different rooms of the house, all in pitch perfect sound quality."

 

And here: https://www.spotify.com/sonos/

 

It says 

 

"Play in any room.

Let one tune fill the house, or play a different song in each room."

Hi -

I read through the answers, but I still am not clear. Can I play different Spotify playlists in different rooms using Sonos? 

 

I think the answers sound like you can play different music on the Sonos app but one room has to be from Sonos and the other room has to be from Spotify. 

 

Can you clarify for me? I'm considering buying another Sonos speaker, but only if I can play different playlists from my current Spotify account. 

 

Thank you!

You can play different music from the same Spotify account in two rooms but you have to use the Spotify service via the Sonos app in both rooms. If you use the Spotify app in one room you cannot play from the same account via either the Spotify app or the Sonos app in the second room
