So, I’ve ripped out my very dated entertainment center builtin and and rebuilding it. I’m strongly considering an Arc/Sub/Surrounds solution for cleanliness, and frankly, the cost is appealing. However, I have an 18ft steeply angled ceiling. Can Trueplay compensate for this? My other option is to stick with an AVR receiver and install pendant speakers so I can normalize the height of left and right.
Anyone using an Arc with angled ceilings?
Hi
Thanks for your post.
For the vertical component, the Sonos Arc needs to bounce the sound from it’s upwards-firing speakers off your ceiling and back at you. If it’s not able to do this, no amount of TruePlay tuning with overcome the physics of the situation. Here are a couple of relevant posts for you to have a read of:
Saying that, I’m sure the Arc will sound great, especially with a Sub and Surrounds, but you won’t get the vertical effect as well as others, if at all.
