Please add support for DTS for the Sonos Playbar.

A hifi homecinema soundbar without dts support seems not up to date for me. Are there any plans to add dts support?

      DTS is a must on an expensive product like this. I want to connect my bluray direct for best sound, but can listen to 9 out of 10 of my blurays as they only have DTS steams.

      After 4 months of 'Under consideration' a little more information about your intentions would be well appreciated!

      Any news on the issue? I would even be willing to pay for the codec. As long as the DTS codec is not added I am not going to buy the sub. Any official statement would be appreciated!

      Yeah.. I don't normally add to these sort of threads; and I was really excited up until I read on the forums about the lack of DTS support. I mean really guys, I was so tempted, and this stopped me. You've got tons of people on here who want to buy but won't because of this, and it's 2k a pop, you'll make your money back fast. Just dedicate some resource to it, it really can't be that hard. and if it is, just tell us? Let us know you're working on it. I want something in the next few months, if it's not fixed I'll have to get something else. Billy

      This is a showstopper for me too since the primary reason for getting the playbar is for the home cinema experience, and dts is regularly sent and to get "unupported" and silence is not alright. Fortunately for you I like the system so this won't stop me from getting my Play3s instead.

      I have about 18 different components from Sonos, most recently PlayBar and Sub. Am an evangelist for the company with all my friends -- probably 5 folks have started their Sonos systems based on my recommendations. I cannot believe that the PlayBar (which I ordered but have not yet set up) does not have DTS. I did not even check the specs assuming such was de minimus. Sonos, please state your intention as to this matter! Steve
