I recently installed a Sonos Arc + Sub + Amp → 2x Sonance Architectural in-wall speakers for my rears.
The technicians needed to plug the Arc in the eArc port of my TV, ethernet from the Arc to my Amp, and ethernet from my Amp to my router for setup. They said that this is now necessary for new Amps only, and that older same model Amps could connect wirelessly for this type of setup without ethernet.
It’s not an issue for me now, but could be if I decide to move my router elsewhere, and not run ethernet cabling throughout my house.
My question is: why do new Amps have this ethernet connectivity limitation while older models of the same device do not?
