HD Fury Arcana, Beam gen 2 & Apple TV

I set up my Hd Fury Arcana to Beam gen 2 and connected Apple TV 4K 2021 model. I have set the Arcana to beam on but I don’t get Dolby Atmos just DD 5.1. When I changed the mode to EARC and turn off beam mode on Arcana I don’t have volume but can set up Dolby Atmos on ATV.  Arcana has the latest software version 0.84. I have watched on You Tube how to set up but I am not winning! Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thankyou in advance.

Perform a factory reset of the Arcana by clicking the rotary wheel and going to FW/RESET > FACTORY DEFAULT. Most users don’t have to adjust any settings on the Arcana.

And keep Sonos Beam mode off. It was designed for the Beam Gen 1, not the Gen 2.

I am new to Sonos and their products. I am using Beam gen2 and One SL for surrounds. My TV is from 2014 with arc connection but no Dolby Digital Plus I get normal 5.1 surround. Question is if I purchase HDFury Arcana will that resolve my issue, will I be able to get Atmos content playing through the setup?

@RGMusic Only if you use a different source then your TV (i.e Apple TV, Playstation, BD-player).

If you check the HD Fury website, there are FAQs that show you how to add the TV’s output to the Arcana as well. I’m not a fan, it gets into some weird cabling, but it’s possible.
