Hi All,



I've got a configuration question I was hoping people could help out with.



I've got a Windows 10 PC that acts as a HTPC with HDMI into a Sony TV.



I'm not that keen on the PlayBar (it just won't physically fit with my setup) so was looking to get



1 * Sonos Connect

2 * Sonos Play 3

1 * Sonos Play 1



and run an Optical cable from the TV to the Sonos Connect.



Will this work so I can play



* Audio from the TV

* Audio from the PC on HDMI Passthrough

* Audio from the App for Spotify/Pandora etc



Or is the Connect only for using with your own speakers?



Will there be any latency /sync issues with the HTPC if i'm playing Netflix etc?



Thanks in advance



Chris
The CONNECT has an optical output not input.
Crap ... :)



So is there any other way to connect a TV to the Sonos eco system (with a digital signal, not analog) without the PlayBar?
Nope. The Connect doesn't have a surround decoder either, the whole plan is a complete non-starter.
