So, get the Arc set up, don’t worry about the name of the room, that can be changed later. Once the Arc is set up, add the Sub (bond it to the Arc), and finally ‘add surrounds’, for which you’ll use the two PLAY:3s. They’ll all end up in one Sonos Room, which you can rename to your heart’s content.

After setting up arc and adding to room it will show up in another room

ty for any help please

What ‘room’ did you try to add it to? If there was already a speaker in that ‘room’ (Sonos room, not physical room), then unless you had a pair of speakers, and set them up as surrounds, you wouldn’t be able to add an Arc. You could conceivably have the two Sonos ‘room’ speakers in the same physical room, and then group the two Sonos ‘rooms’, but there would still be a delay when using the ARC input on the Arc.

Right, you’re trying to do it backwards. Set up the Arc first, then add the Sub and the surrounds to the Arc. Everything is based around the Arc.

I’ll try that the only reason I did it that way was I had playbar and upgraded to arc

i have a lot to learn from u guys

Think of the Arc as the ‘hub’ of your home theater. Just like with the PLAYBAR before, everything connects to that central hub.
