Morning All. I bought the 820 with the explanation that I could integrate my existing Sonos network with the Onkyo. I have yet to see the Works with Sonos option via the menu. I am running the latest Onkyo firmware and still no option. 

Anyone have any insight on this? 

THanks in advance!

“Works with Sonos” means it works in conjunction with a Sonos Connect or Port.  When playing from the Sonos app, the Connect/Port will automatically turn on the receiver and change inputs.  See this video (Note: Sonos Connect has been replaced by the Sonos Port):

THX jgatie, I have seen this video before. What I said was I do not see the “works with sonos” option via the Onkyo menu as referred to in the video.

I’m looking at the TX-RZ820 here:

And I don’t see any mention of ?”Works with Sonos”.  The comparable receiver that does have the “Works with Sonos” badge is the newer TX-RZ840 model:
