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?

      From the consensus of posts I have read, the topic should be renamed to: "Please add a HDMI port and support for DTS on the Sonos Playbar." Cue Playbar:2
      what about those of who have already purchased a play bar ? hopefully Sonos would make some sort of offer to existing owners if they added an HDMI connection

      I haven't checked this topic since I got my two Playbars and was annoyed that they didn't support DTS. It's almost unbeleivable that I get better audio from my OTA cable box (5.1) than my Blu-ray collection which is increasingly mostly DTS which is then downmixed to 2.0 stereo for the Playbar. Crazy, and extremely frustrating.

      Could Sonos please give us a answer if they gonna add DTS support or not? It doesnt matter if it gonna be right now or near future, just so we know if they are gonna work on it or if we are suppose to move on to other hunting areas. Please give us something!

      I had plans to pick up a Playbar tonight, but I'm now having second thoughts as it doesn't appear to be future-proofed. I called the helpline and they couldn't shed any more light on the situation - surely a statement needs to be made or people are going to start looking elsewhere!

      Yeah I still dont get it either. Don't get me wrong, I love my playbar each day I'm listening music from it. Too bad I cant use it for my blu-rays... How much effort is it to post a heads up? Greetings from a (half) satisfied customer
