Please add support for DTS for the Sonos Playbar.

Hi, I have today just purchased a Soundbar to improve the sound of my Sony TV fed from a Mac Mini. I'm a newcomer to SONOS. Please add DTS decoding feature to the Playbar via a firmware update. Surely this is a relatively easy fix? Once this is done I will purchase a couple of Play 3's and the sub for the living room; also probably a couple more Play 5's for around the house. Otherwise I'm afraid it's going back and I'm getting BOSE with sound docks for each room! After finding out about lack of DTS AFTER purchasing, a bit of shine has been taken off an otherwise happy day! Love the SONOS concept. Please listen to all of your customers many of whom probably haven't bothered to find your forum and comment but are never the less wanting the feature added. You could probably multiply the number of requests to add DTS to the Playbar many times over because most people read the comments here but can't be bothered to sign up to the forum and comment themselves. Thanks for listening. A reply from SONOS is long overdue...... Many customers are awaiting your response. Even if it's a "we are working on it, hope to get it sorted by the end of the year or no we're not adding it" would help! Thanks.

This is a MASSIVE oversight from Sonos. As great as the Playbar is and as much as i love it when it pumps out true DD5.1, it sorely lacks when DTS playback is needed in 90% of my blu ray collection. As many have said before me, we have dropped thousands of pounds/dollars/euros etc on a prime bit of kit only to be kept in the dark regarding a firmware update. If it is possible, charge me for it. I don't care now. I've spent my hard earned. I just want it to do what it should be capable of. Either way Sonos, its about time you let us know. rant over....

Agree with many comments above. It would be great to receive some further comment / update from Sonos as this is a major issue.

... i ask myself how much money Sonos already lost due to the lack of DTS-support .... Is it already 1 Million £ / $ / € / SFr ....

Six months ago: I bought a Playbar and posted to this forum asking for DTS support to be added. Six months later: nothing from Sonos other than marking this topic "Under Consideration". Really, Sonos? Is that how you treat your customers? Should I sell my Playbar, two Sonos 3s, two Connects and a Bridge? Should I get my friends who own Sonos equipment to consider other options? Should I go to other websites (Amazon, CNet, ...) and post my negative opinion of the Playbar re: the lack of DTS when I try and watch many of my blu-ray movies without sound? After six months, I feel that at a MINIMUM, I deserve a "yes" or "no" answer as to whether DTS support will be added. If "yes", when? If "no", fine, at least I can move on, sell my Sonos equipment (which I otherwise enjoy and use often) and look for other solutions.

I would appreciate to have DTS too. Most of my actual BluRays don't bring out any sound on the play bar! Thats not acceptable!

I would suggest everyone posts complaints on the Sonos Facebook page & Twitter feed about this issue. Nobody seems to care in here. Sonos really do project a different service level than they actually deliver. The silence is deafening.....how ironic.

Come on Sonos. Do something about this! DTS is a must for a EUR 2,000 home cinema audio system! Unbelievable that we even have to discuss this...

You guys had better make up your mind quick on adding DTS to the PLAYBAR, your competitors are catching up. Harman Kardon just announced a new set of soundbars that support DTS. Harman Kardon outs pair of sleek soundbars with prices starting at $599 "Harman Kardon has chosen IFA 2013 as the platform to unveil a couple of new, audiophile-grade soundbars, the Sabre SB 35 and SB 26. For starters, the top-of-the-line SB 35 model carries a cool $999 price tag, bringing with it qualities such as 1.75-inch drivers and 1-inch tweeters, Dolby Digital TrueHD / DTS HD Decoding, plus Bluetooth connectivity and access to three HDMI ports -- Harman says that given its mere 1.25-inch in depth, it's the slimmest multi-channel 8.1 bar on the market" If the SB-35 is well reviewed, I may sell my Sonos PLAYBARs and get it.

There are dozens of soundbars that support DTS, that is nothing new. However, none of them are specifically made to work within the Sonos system, which is why people are clamoring for DTS on the Sonos Playbar.
