Best TV along with Sonos

Hi all,

which tv is most compatible with dolby atmos and the passthrough to the sonos arc. i now have a Samsung ue55f6670 and this one isn’t able to passtrough a 5.1 signal from another device. Atmos? Haha no that eighter..

only the internal netflix app will give a 5.1 signal to the Arc(thats the highest quality that it can do).

 

I spoke to Samsung's technical department and they indicate that there is no guarantee that Netflix will transmit the atmos signal on Samsung TVs. there are not the correct agreements between Samsung and Netflix for this. LG does have the atmos support and for almost all other surround sound codecs.
 

I would like to have some advice here on which TV to buy to get (at least hearing dolby atmos) such a good and comprehensive system.

As I stated earlier my 2019 QE65Q90R works very well with my Beam. Contrary to my old UE46D8000 is does pass through the DD sound from my PS4. Since I own a Beam I do not no if the QE65Q90R Netflix app is DD+ capable (and so will give you Atmos).

I think you are getting it wrong Beam does not have DD+ (lossy Atmos).

I did not mean to say the Beam can do DD+ (only the Arc can). I meant to say that I can't check if the Netflix app in the TV can do DD+ because I own a Beam (that can't do DD+). Sorry if my choice of words confuses people.

I have had the Samsung QE65Q70T (2020) with HDMI 2.1 e-Arc for 2 weeks now. In many cases I can use Dolby Atmos via the Sonos Arc along with the Sub (gen3) and One SLs. Here in the Netherlands I use Netflix, PrimeVideo, Disney + and very sometimes Pathe Thuis (this one is very behind, only stereo !?). I can indicate that Dolby Atmos works well in the Netherlands with Netflix and PrimeVideo! Super cool sound! I have not tried external devices such as blueray or apple tv 4k. I hope I was able to give you a little more info.
